the aim of this study was to determine the most suitable shaking frequency and amplitude for shake harvesting lime fruit (c. aurantifolia). a tractor mounted limb shaker with adjustable shaking frequency and amplitude, powered by the tractor power-take-off shaft was designed and developed for this study. the rotating input power was transmitted to the shaker flywheel through a multiple sheave v...

major proportion of intracellular calcium (ca 2+ ) is achieved through opening of calcium channels present in the plasma membrane which play an important role in regulating neuromuscular coordination and release of neurotransmitters from nerve terminals. blockade of these calcium channels adversely affect contractile process and release of neurotransmitters in majority of the neuromuscular prep...

This paper presents the possibility of using Electroencephalograms (EEG) signals of an individual for quantitative interpretation of Cerebral Autoregulation (CA). EEG data was recorded during arm cuff inflation to induce dynamic changes in arterial blood pressure and then, Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF) was estimated from EEG using canonical hemodynamic response function (HRF). The assessment of CA ...

The effect of amiloride on glycinergic transmission in mechanically dissociated rat spinal dorsal horn neurons was examined with the use of whole-cell patch-clamp recording. Amiloride reversibly reduced both the frequency and amplitude of spontaneous glycinergic miniature IPSCs (mIPSCs) and its inhibitory effect on glycinergic mIPSCs persisted in either Ca2+-free or Na+-free external solutions ...

New experimental data on the frequency and damping of Faraday water waves in glass tanks are presented to demonstrate the contact-line effect on free surface flows. We find a complicated nonlinear relationship between wave frequency and amplitude near contact lines: The amplitude dispersion for decaying standing waves directly progresses from a nonlinear regime due to large amplitude to a regim...
