Abstract:
In recent years, freeze-thaw indicators have become attractive in the food, pharmaceutical and medical industries in the monitoring of the quality and safety of perishable products, during cold-chain storage and distribution. Freeze-thaw indicators are capable of providing a clearly visible change if the product has been exposed to the freezing temperatures. The irreversible change would indicate that the product had suffered a form of thermal abuse, making it unsafe for consumption use and requiring removal from the market. This project aimed to develop a freeze-thaw indicator using various t

Abstract:
α1- and α2-Adrenoceptors are involved in various physiological events in the eye: blood flow regulation, aqueous humor dynamics and pupil regulation. The α1- and α2-adrenoceptors can be further subdivided into six subtypes (α1A, α1B, α1D, α2A , α2B, and α2C ). Currently available α1- and α2-adrenergic drugs are not selective for the different subtypes and some ocular adrenergics have undesirable side-effects, both local and systemic. A better understanding of the subtype distribution in the eye would be useful when designing new drugs with greater efficacy and fewer adverse effects; this appli

Abstract:
During embryonic development, cells respond to extracellular signals to establish proper tissue organization. Semaphorins (Semas) are a large class of secreted and transmembrane proteins that signal through Plexin (Plxn) receptors to guide migrating cells to their correct position and thus play critical roles in the development of various tissues including the nervous and cardiovascular systems. We have previously shown that Sema6A-PlxnA2 signaling is essential for visual system development, as decreasing endogenous Sema6A or PlxnA2 in zebrafish results in decreased cohesion of the early eye f

Optimal functioning of the immune system is necessary for the host to be capable of mounting a sufficient immune response, especially in times of sickness and injury. Acute bouts of starvation may compromise immune function, and subsequently lead to increased susceptibility to infection.

A very unique compound eye in dipterans is found in males of the forensically important blow fly, Chrysomya megacephala (Diptera: Calliphoridae).

This region is believed to play a role in mate tracking and allow for increased light capture, though no behavioral studies have tested these claims.

Darbo objektas: nuolatinio (> 3 mėn.) apatinės nugaros dalies skausmo, negalios dėl jo, judamojo atraminio aparato funkcinių ir pusiausvyros rodiklių pokytis po 8 savaičių Čen stiliaus Taidzičiuan treniruočių įtakos. Tyrimo problema: ar Čen stiliaus Taidzičiuan treniruočių programa gali įtakoti rodiklius susijusius su nuolatiniu apatinės nugaros dalies skausmu? Hipotezė: Čen stiliaus 8 savaičių trukmės Taidzičiuan treniruočių programa turi teigiamą įtaką, skausmo bei su juo susijusios negalios, judamojo atraminio aparato funkciniams bei pusiausvyros rodikliams esant apatinės nugaros dalies ska

Abstract:
A atenção visuoespacial pode ser considerada como a atividade neural que seleciona certas regiões do espaço em detrimento das demais. Existem dois tipos de orientação da atenção: atenção automática e atenção voluntária. Há evidências de que as áreas cerebrais associadas à estes dois tipos se sobrepõem, porém alguns autores observaram que há áreas distintas de ativação cerebral para atenção automática e voluntária. Estas diferenças resultaram em visões distintas a respeito de modelos cerebrais envolvendo a atenção visuoespacial. O objetivo de nosso trabalho foi identificar quais são as principa

Abstract:
The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) is the definitive source for wetland resources in the United States. The NWI production unit in Hadley, MA has begun to upgrade their digital map database, integrating descriptors for assessment of wetland functions. Updating is conducted manually and some automation is needed to increase production and efficiency. This study assigned landscape position descriptor codes to NWI wetland polygons and correlated polygon environmental properties with public domain terrain, soils, hydrology, and vegetation data within the Coastal Plain of Virginia.
