To examine the influence of activity-dependent cues on differentiation of primary afferent neurons, we investigated the short- and long-term effects of depolarization and calcium influx on expression of transmitter traits in sensory ganglion cell cultures. We focused on expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), a marker for dopaminergic neurons, in developing petrosal ganglion (PG), nodose gangl...

A series of bioassays were conducted to determine the response of adult western tarnished plant bugs, Lygus hesperus Knight (Heteroptera: Miridae), to artificial diets containing potassium chloride (KCl). We first examined the feeding behavior of L. hesperus by direct observation in a no-choice diet feeding arena. We observed a total of 22 Lygus feeding events lasting an average of 411 ± 64 s o...

Corynespora causes leaf fall disease in rubber plants. Control can be done with bio fungicides and potassium fertilizer. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of essential oils fertilizer controlling disease. The research was conducted from January December 2018 Landak Regency, West Kalimantan. used a randomized block design 13 treatments repeated 3 times. treatment is without biofungi...

In the present work, chemical coupling between moist CO oxidation and transformation of gaseous potassium salts (KCl or KOH) in presence absence SO2 was investigated experimentally through kinetic modeling. The experiments were performed a laminar flow quartz reactor at temperatures ranging from 873 to 1473 K. experimental results showed that both KCl KOH inhibited oxidation, but addition reduc...

Ion current rectification dependent on the concentration gradient of KCl solutions was systematically investigated in polyethyleneimine modified glass nano-pipettes with inner diameter of 105 nm. Peak shape dependence of the rectification factor on outer KCl solution concentration was observed when inner KCl solution with concentration from 1 mM to 500 mM was used. The peak shape dependence was...
