Stereotaxic head fixation plays a necessary role in current physiological techniques, such as in vivo whole cell recording and two-photon laser-scanning microscopy, that are designed to elucidate the cortical involvement in animal behaviors. In rodents, however, head fixation often inhibits learning and performance of behavioral tasks. In particular, it has been considered inappropriate for hea...

In this paper, some results are provided for minimum time roll about velocity vector maneuvering with thrust-vectoring and aerodynamic control in effect. The mathematical model for attitude motions of the aircraft is developed. First order necessary conditions for optimality using Pontryagen principle is applied, and the existence of an extreme family of solutions for the maneuver is shown. Mul...

Purine nucleosides on position 9 of eukaryal and archaeal tRNAs are frequently modified in vivo by the post-transcriptional addition of a methyl group on their N1 atom. The methyltransferase Trm10 is responsible for this modification in both these domains of life. While certain Trm10 orthologues specifically methylate either guanosine or adenosine at position 9 of tRNA, others have a dual speci...

the effect of gibberellic acid (ga3) spraying on some characteristics of cyclamen flowering trend during the second flowering year was investigated. ga3 sprays were applied in concentrations of 0, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mg/l. the trial was carried out as a randomized complete design of three replications. the total flower count, flower count during the flowering peak, days from spraying to flowerin...

Bed symmetry has been analysed in fountain confined conical spouted beds operating with fine particles. Thus, vertical particle velocities and the spout shape have determined a wide range of spouting air bed configurations. is widely accepted without draft tubes or nonporous ones, but this not case when open-sided are used. radial velocity profiles differ depending on cross-sectional angular pl...

Vibration of gas-solid fluidized beds is often used to enable fluidization cohesive particles; however, it has also been shown reduce the minimum velocity (Umf). Here, we show via experiments that vibration can both Umf and bubbling (Umb) in Geldart Group B D particles. We observe reduced more than Umb, thereby creating a densely packed, bubble-free state when superficial gas between Umb. Umb d...
