The unilateral or bilateral lesion of the Substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) by chemical neurotoxins such as 6-hydroxy dopamine (6-OHDA) or 1- Methyl-4- phenyl -1,2,3,6 – tetirahydro pyridine (MPTP) are the most commonly and the main used methods for generating the animal models of Parkinson’s disease (PD). But these agents are expensive, dangerous, difficult to use and inacce...

background and objectives: making stacking gels for polyacrylamide gels in the laboratory by conventional methods is laborious and time consuming. considering the role of temperature in polyacrylamide gels with respect to electrical resistance and viscosity, we assumed that decreasing the temperature would cause an increase in electrical resistance and viscosity.  ultimately, a downward tempera...

transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (tens) is an analgesia inducing method with increasing applications in clinical procedures. in this study we tried to evaluate the role of the adrenergic system and its different adrenoceptor subtypes in tens-induced analgesia. two types of low and high frequency electrical stimuli were used in rats through needle electrodes, inserted at the base of t...

Introduction: Electrical impedance of tissues on low frequencies includes useful information about functional and structural changes in tissues. This property is used in Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) imaging modality for the detection of lesions in tissues.Objective: The goal of this article is to study changes in electrical impedance of tissues in the presence of gold nanoparticles.Mat...

In this study electrical discharge process was used to increase surface wear resistance of pure aluminum. Pulse-on-time and pulse current were considered as input parameters of the electrical discharge process. Experimental results reveal that the electrical discharge process is a successful method for improving the surface wear resistance of aluminum, so that this method has greatly increased ...

as one of the most promising distributed generation (dg) sources, wind power technology has been widely developed in recent years. doubly fed induction generator (dfig) is currently employed as one of the most common topologies for wind turbine generators (wtgs). this generator operates as a synchronous/asynchronous hybrid generators. therefore, it is necessary to power engineers find understan...

Steering assist system controls the force transfer behavior of the steering system and improves the steering probability of the vehicle. Moreover, it is an interface between the diver and vehicle. Fault detection in electrical assisted steering systems is a challenging problem due to frequently use of these systems. This paper addresses the fault detection and reconstruction in automotive elect...

Plant electrostimulation is a very efficient method for evaluation of biologically closed electrical circuits in plants. The information gained from plant electrostimulation can be used to elucidate and observe the intracellular and intercellular communication in the form of electrical signals within plants. Monitoring the electrical signaling in higher plants represents a promising method to i...
