Therefore, this audit was undertaken r...

A scintillator-based lost fast-ion probe (LIP) was designed and constructed to measure energetic-ion-losses caused by energetic-ion-drivenMHD instabilities such as Alfvén eigenmodes in the Large Helical Device (LHD). It provides information about the pitch angle and gyroradius of the lost energetic ions simultaneously. It is installed at the outboard side of a horizontally elongated poloidal cr...

We searched for protein markers present in blood serum of multiple sclerosis (MS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients in comparison to healthy human individuals. We used precipitation/extraction methods and MALDI TOF/TOF mass spectrometry, and identified a protein with Mr ~46 kDa as a fragment of human unconventional myosin IC isoform b (Myo1C). Western bl...

The present study was carried out to determine the effects of chronic exposure to social stress during puberty on the dopamine system in male golden hamsters. Experimental animals were socially subjugated between postnatal days 28 (P28) and 42. All animals were sacrificed on P46 and their brains processed for immunocytochemistry to tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). A large increase in the number of TH...
