The Electrophysiology of Electric Organs of Marine Electric Fishes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of General Physiology, 1961
Studies on the electric organs of Narcine brasiliensis and particularly of the responses of the electroplaques of the accessory organ confirm and amplify data obtained on the electroplaques of Torpedo nobiliana. Only the innervated surface is electrogenically reactive and the uninnervated surface has a low resistance, as in Torpedo electroplaques ...

The Contents of Acetylcholine and Choline Esterase in the Electric Organ of Narke japonica (Temminck and Schlegel).

open access: yes, 1943
1) The total amount of ACh yielded from the electric organ was enormously high, and estimated to 8.5 - 15.0γ (average 12.0γ) per gramm of the tissue weight. There was no difference in the content of ACh between the stimulated and non-stimulated

Liquid Phase Transmission Electron Microscopy: A Window into the Early Stages of Complex Material Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Liquid‐phase transmission electron microscopy enables direct observation of nucleation and growth processes in solution. This review is dedicated to the remembrance of Helmut Cölfen and highlights recent studies on complex materials—oxides, biominerals, organic–inorganic crystals—which were central to his research activity. It summarizes key milestones,

Human Gut Bacteria and Lipidic Nanoparticles: Particle Composition Predicts Structural Transformation and Bacterial Biocompatibility

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lipidic nanoparticles (LNPs) were incubated with 21 gut bacteria frequently associated with the human microbiome. SAXS revealed that ∼75% of tested species induced structural transformations in monoolein LNPs, whereas phytantriol and phospholipid formulations remained unaffected.

Status-Dependent Vasotocin Modulation of Dominance and Subordination in the Weakly Electric Fish Gymnotus omarorum

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
Dominant-subordinate status emerges from agonistic encounters. The weakly electric fish, Gymnotus omarorum, displays a clear-cut example of non-breeding territorial aggression.

Head to tail electric organ discharges.

open access: yes, 2013
Electric organ discharge waveform (a) and spectral power density (b) for 15 adult specimens of Gymnotus carapo, G. coropinae (both from Surinam), and G. omari (from Uruguay). Electric organ discharges were plotted with head positivity upwards, normalized

Strain‐Programmable Luminescent Adhesive Patch With Tartrazine‐Mediated Optical Skin Clearing for Photochemical Tissue Bonding

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

On Apteronotus magdalenensis (Miles, 1945) (Gymnotiformes: Apteronotidae): a poorly known species endemic to the río Magdalena basin, Colombia

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology
Based on the examination of the two available paratypes and recently collected material, we present new data and information on the electric knifefish Apteronotus magdalenensis, a species endemic to the río Magdalena-Cauca basin in Colombia. Since Miles'

Peristaltic motion of MHD nanofluid in an asymmetric micro-channel with Joule heating, wall flexibility and different zeta potential

open access: yesBoundary Value Problems, 2019
A mathematical scrutiny is introduced for the flow of magneto-hydrodynamic nanofluid through an asymmetric microfluidic channel under an applied axial electric field. The impacts of wall flexibility, Joule heating and upper/lower wall zeta potentials are

Mechanical Behavior and Fracture Mechanisms of MXene/PVDF Nanocomponsites: In Situ Characterization and Multiscale Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Multiscale experiments and modeling reveal how Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets reinforce PVDF nanocomposites. An optimal MXene loading (∼1 wt.%) nearly doubles tensile strength through efficient stress transfer, flake alignment, and crack‐deflection mechanisms, transforming ductile polymer behavior into a controlled multi‐stage fracture pathway which aligns ...
