It has recently been demonstrated that a lateralized distractor that matches the individual's top-down control settings elicits an N2pc wave, an electrophysiological index of the focus of visual-spatial attention, indicating that contingent capture has a visual-spatial locus. Here, we investigated whether contingent capture required capacity-limited central resources by incorporating a continge...

It is widely acknowledged that visual input is processed along two anatomically and functionally distinct pathways--a ventral pathway for conscious perception and a dorsal pathway for action control. The present study investigated whether the apparent direct and unmediated processing in the dorsal stream is subject to capacity limitations. Specifically, we tested whether a simple dorsal task of...

in this study, thyme extract (0, 2 and 4% w/v) on the chemical quality of common carp surimi was investigated during refrigerator storage. samples were withdrawn at four 3 days intervals over a storage period of 15 days (0, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 days), and analyzed to determine the extent of deterioration by chemical tests  such as thiobarbitoric acid (tba), total volatile bases nitrogen (tvb-n) a...

this study evaluated the antibacterial and antioxidant effects of tamarind water solution on shelf life of silver carp ( hypophthalmicthys molitrix ) fillet during refrigerator storage. treatments of this study were unwashed samples (control), and samples washed with 1% and 2% tamarind water solution. microbial, physicochemical and sensory analysis including total viable count (tvc), peroxide v...

Laboratory studies were conducted to determine the effect of temperature and cold storage on the performance of Tetrastichus brontispae (Ferriere) (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae), one of the major endoparasitoids against coconut hispine beetle, Brontispa longissima (Gestro) (Coleptera: Chrysomelidae). The results revealed that T. brontispae could successfully parasitize host pupae under all seven tes...
