The Astonishing Behavior of Electric Eels

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2019
The remarkable physiology of the electric eel (Electrophorus electricus) made it one of the first model species in science. It was pivotal for understanding animal electricity in the 1700s, was investigated by Humboldt and Faraday in the 1800s, was ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of electric catfish Malapterurus electricus and its phylogeny

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022
Electric catfishes evolved the substantial electric organ that can instantly release powerful high-voltage electricity. To better study the phylogenetic position of the electric fish (Malapterurus electricus) in catfishes, in this study, we presented the

Carboxylic‐Acid Functionalized Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube‐Alkane‐Based Resistive Temperature Sensor for Cold Chain Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a reversible temperature sensor with high switching ratio, ∼103. The device is fabricated using PET‐ITO and carbon nanotube dispersions in alkane. Considering its application in cold chain logistics, a proof‐of‐concept with LED is showcased. Thus, a temperature drop below the threshold temperature (crystallization temperature of the

Convergent mosaic brain evolution is associated with the evolution of novel electrosensory systems in teleost fishes

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Brain region size generally scales allometrically with brain size, but mosaic shifts in brain region size independent of brain size have been found in several lineages and may be related to the evolution of behavioral novelty.

Characterization of a component in chick ciliary ganglia that cross- reacts with monoclonal antibodies to muscle and electric organ acetylcholine receptor

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 1985
Chick ciliary ganglion neurons have previously been shown to contain a component that shares an antigenic determinant with the “main immunogenic region” of the alpha-subunit in nicotinic acetylcholine receptor from skeletal muscle and electric organ ...

Tailored Hierarchical Porous Copper Architectures via Three Dimensional Printing and Pressure‐less Sintering for Next‐Generation Lithium‐Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A hierarchical porous copper current collector is fabricated via three‐dimensional printing combined with pressureless sintering to stabilize lithium metal anodes. The interconnected architecture lowers local current density, guides uniform Li deposition within pores, and suppresses dendrite growth.

Theoretical analysis of pre-receptor image conditioning in weakly electric fish. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2005
Electroreceptive fish detect nearby objects by processing the information contained in the pattern of electric currents through the skin. The distribution of local transepidermal voltage or current density on the sensory surface of the fish's skin is the

Numerical mesoscale tissue model of electrochemotherapy in liver based on histological findings

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Electrochemotherapy (ECT) and irreversible electroporation (IRE) are being investigated for treatment of hepatic tumours. The liver is a highly heterogeneous organ, permeated with a network of macro- and microvasculature, biliary tracts and connective ...
