Abstract:

The factors determining fuse quality in hot-roll toner fixing, namely, toner and paper surface properties and machine conditions were examined. The SEM observation of the fixing states and the tape peeling test failure states showed the direct relation between the fuse quality and the toner fixing states. A physical fusing model was employed to explain the change in the shape of toner particles during the fixing process. The non-uniform fixing states were categorized into three levels. The first group comprised unmelted or only marginally melted toner particles which were weakly adhering to

Abstract:

The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) has a well-established role in regulating Ca2+ homeostasis by controlling the release of parathyroid hormone from the parathyroid gland. CaSRs are also expressed in the vasculature where they regulate vascular tone, although the underlying cellular mechanisms are poorly understood. This thesis investigates the functional role and cellular mechanisms of CaSRs regulating vascular tone. Wire myography studies, nitric oxide imaging, western blotting, immunocytochemistry, proximity ligation assays, and patch-clamp electrophysiology experiments were performed usin

Abstract:

The intent of this thesis is to explore the effects and influencers of skin tone on consumer perception. Firstly we conducted a primary study to test the effects of skin tone on service provider quality. The results showed that while skin tone had little effect, gender and ethnicity were more indicative. Therefore our study seeks to re-test the relationship between skin tone and consumer service perception as well as the effects of ethnicity and tipping behavior, and if a consumer’s cultural identity strength plays a role in consumer perception. We examined the differences across ethnicities i

Abstract:

The A1-MGBv corticothalamic projection is one of the major descending pathways in the auditory system, projecting from the primary auditory cortex (A1) to the ventral division of medial geniculate body (MGBv). Recent evidence suggests that corticothalamic feedback can sharpen the spectral receptive fields of thalamic neurons and modulate the temporal precision of the responses. The aim of the work presented here was to investigate the role of A1-MGBv corticothalamic feedback using harmonic and mistuned complex tones (HCTs and MCTs) in adult ferrets. The MCTs used comprised a mistuned harmonic

Abstract:

Endothelial and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (eNOS and nNOS respectively) are constitutively expressed in vivo. Recent data showed that selective local inhibition of nNOS reduced basal blood flow without affecting endothelial-mediated vasodilatation induced by acetylcholine or increased shear stress - suggesting that eNOS and nNOS have distinct roles in vasoregulation. This thesis aimed to investigate the role of nNOS-derived nitric oxide (NO) in the regulation of skeletal blood flow during exercise and myocardial blood flow during increased cardiac workload.

Abstract:

This thesis constitutes the first in-depth study of the forty-one largely-forgotten 'domestic' novels of Rosa Carey [1840-1909]. Jane Crisp's pioneering monography on Carey combines a useful essay on the major themes in the novels with extensive bibliographies of Carey's work and other related material. However, this thesis is the first extended treatment of the novels to place them in their historical context and to apply to them to a variety of theoretical readings. Thus, it is germane to the feminist project of 'rediscovery'. However, the work also dovetails into existing scholarship in tha

Previous studies of IPA/NO have been primarily in vivo in nature. IPA/NO had a similar profile to AS for both vasorelaxation and hyperpolarization of rat mesenteric arteries and was therefore a suitable alt

Abstract:

This thesis examines the effects of managerial overconfidence on corporate financing decisions. Overconfident managers tend to overestimate the mean of future cash flow and underestimate the volatility of future cash flow. We propose a novel time-varying measure of overconfidence, which is based on computational linguistic analysis of what the managers said (i.e. Chairman s Statement). The overconfidence of CEO and CFO is also constructed based on what the managers did (i.e. how they trade their own firms shares). We conduct three empirical studies that offer new insights into the roles of man

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立陽明大學<br>藥理學研究所<br>87<br>We evaluated the role of endogenous angiotensins, the subtypes of angiotensins receptor involved in the modulation of sympathetic vasomotor tone, and the contribution of sympathetic premotor neurons in nucleus reticularis ventrolateralis (NRVL) to this modulatory precess, based on auto-spectral analysis of systemic arterial pressure (SAP) signals in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. Intravenous infusion of propofol (40－160 mg/kg/h), which elicited gradual and progressive depression of the vasomotor components (0－0.8 Hz) in the SAP spectrum, was used to manipulate

Abstract:

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PH) is a rare disorder that is progressive and often fatal within 3years. Recent advances in vascular research have identified the small GTP-binding protein RhoA and its downstream effector Rho-kinase as important regulators of a variety of physiologic functions, including vascular smooth muscle contraction. Rho-kinase is expressed in most cells and increases calcium sensitization by decreasing myosin phosphatase activity, leading to increased myosin light-chain phosphorylation and smooth muscle contraction. The present study was undertaken to clarify the role
