The somata of molluscan neurones respond with long trains of spikes to steady injected outward current. During such repetitive firing the maximum rate of rise of action potentials usually decreases as a result of inactivation of the transport mechanism for inward current. Significant inactivation of this transport system does not often change the peak level of the action potential (Magura, 1967...

in this study, a set of experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of edta-grafted iron oxide nanoparticles exposure on agronomic traits of sunflower (helianthus annuus) plants. the experiment was implemented by applying nano-fe3o4-edta and fe-edta fertilizers applied through spray or soil amendment. a variety of parameters including aerial organ biomass, number of leaves, plant he...

background: magnetite (fe3o4) nanoparticles are currently one of the important and acceptable magnetic nanoparticles for biomedical applications. to use magnetite nanoparticles for bacteria cell separation, the surface of nanoparticles would be modified for immobilizing of nanoparticles on the surface of bacteria. functionalization of magnetite nanoparticles is performed by different surfactant...

with the rise in the use of afm (atomic force microscope), we have witnessed a growing use of atomic microscope based nanorobots in the precise displacement of various particles. there are certain limitations to the application of nanorobots in the moving of nanoparticles. one of the most important of these limitations is the lack of an appropriate image feedback concurrent with the displaci...

in this research, the inhibitory effects of silver nanoparticles and zinc oxide nanoparticles,  in vitro, on disease stone fruits bacterial canker caused by pseudomonas syrigae pv. syringae and disease bacterial blight caused by xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis, were studied. different concentrations of nanoparticles were prepared on mueller hinton agar medium in two different ways in a com...

a new magnetic nanocatalyst has been prepared using immobilization of vanadate onto aminopropyl functionalized sio2/fe3o4(vo3-/nh3+-sio2/fe3o4). the obtained magnetic catalyst was characterized by ft-ir, xrd, vsm and sem techniques and used for sulfoxidation of sulfide compounds to the correspondingsulfoxides in presence of h2o2 as oxidant at room temperature. the optimum of reaction conditions...

in this work, the adsorption of the anionic dye, congo red (cr), from aqueous solution by using tea waste (tw) has been carried out at 30 °c. the equilibrium sorption isotherms and kinetics were investigated. the equilibrium adsorption was studied by the langmuir and freundlich models of adsorption. the experimental results manifested that the langmuir isotherm was the best model for the adsorp...

Prior research had documented that semantically-similar labels that co-occur in child-directed speech promote generalization in young children. The present study examined whether co-occurrence probability – in the absence of semantic similarity – can influence children’s inferences. Fourand five-year-old children were exposed to an auditory speech stream consisting of trisyllabic nonsense words...
