A frequency-selective feedback model of auditory efferent suppression and its implications for the recognition of speech in noise [PDF]
, 2012 The potential contribution of the peripheral auditory efferent system to our understanding of speech in a background of competing noise was studied using a computer model of the auditory periphery and assessed using an automatic speech recognition system.

Contralateral inhibition of click- and chirp-evoked human compound action potentials [PDF]
, 2017 Cochlear outer hair cells (OHC) receive direct efferent feedback from the caudal auditory brainstem via the medial olivocochlear (MOC) bundle. This circuit provides the neural substrate for the MOC reflex, which inhibits cochlear amplifier gain and is ...

Looking into ‘hair tonics’ for cotton fiber initiation [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2020 SummaryCotton fiber is the most important source of cellulose for the global textile industry. These hair‐like single‐celled trichomes develop from ovule epidermis. They are classified into long spinnable lint and short fuzz. A key objective in the cotton industry is to breed elite cultivars with fuzzless seeds carrying high lint yield. Molecular basis

USAGE OF HORSE HAIR AS A TEXTILE FIBER AND EVALUATION OF COLOR PROPERTIES [PDF]
Annals of the University of Oradea: Fascicle of Textiles, Leatherwork, 2019 The usage of horse hair as a textile material can be traced to the old ages. Although many animal hair fibers have lost their importance due to the introduction of synthetic fibers into our lives, special fibers such as horsehair have been able to ...

Modeling the production of belly button lint
Scientific Reports, 2018 We show that respiratory cycle provides a periodic traction force for the production of belly button lint or navel fluff. The relative motion induced between clothing and skin, during breathing, transports the clothing fibers over the abdominal skin via ...

Intense isolectin-B4 binding in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons distinguishes c-fiber nociceptors with broad action potentials and high nav1.9 expression [PDF]
, 2006 Binding to isolectin-B4 (IB4) and expression of tyrosine kinase A (trkA) (the high-affinity NGF receptor) have been used to define two different subgroups of nociceptive small dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. We previously showed that only nociceptors
