Distinct effects of prefrontal and parietal cortex inactivations on an accumulation of evidence task in the rat

eLife, 2015
Numerous brain regions have been shown to have neural correlates of gradually accumulating evidence for decision-making, but the causal roles of these regions in decisions driven by accumulation of evidence have yet to be determined.

Isolation of highly heat-resistant Listeria monocytogenes variants by use of a kinetic modeling-based sampling scheme [PDF]

, 2011
Stable high-hydrostatic-pressure (HHP)-resistant Listeria monocytogenes LO28 variants were previously isolated and characterized. These HHP variants were also more resistant to heat.

Enkephalin-inactivating enzymes.

Folia Pharmacologica Japonica, 1993
The inhibitory effects of opioid peptides such as [Met5]-enkephalin and [Met5]-enkephalin-Arg6 on the electrically-evoked contractions of guinea-pig ileum, mouse vas deferens and rat vas deferens were enhanced by aminopeptidase inhibitors such as amastatin and bestatin, a peptidyl dipeptidase A inhibitor like captopril, and endopeptidase-24.11 ...

Photodynamic Decontamination of Food: Assessing Surface Challenges Against Listeria monocytogenes

Microorganisms
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen of significant concern. While it typically causes mild, self-limiting gastroenteritis, it poses a much higher threat to immunocompromised individuals and pregnant women, where it may lead to miscarriage ...

Benzalkonium Chloride and Benzethonium Chloride Effectively Reduce Spore Germination of Ginger Soft Rot Pathogens: Fusarium solani and Fusarium oxysporum

Journal of Fungi, 2023
Ginger soft rot is a serious soil-borne disease caused by Fusarium solani and Fusarium oxysporum, resulting in reduced crop yields. The application of common chemical fungicides is considered to be an effective method of sterilization, and therefore ...

Universal features of the off-equilibrium fragmentation with the Gaussian dissipation

, 1998
We investigate universal features of the off-equilibrium sequential and conservative fragmentation processes with the dissipative effects which are simulated by the Gaussian random inactivation process.

Inactivation of Staphylococcus aureus by the Combined Treatments of Ultrasound and Nisin in Nutrient Broth and Milk

eFood, 2021
In this study, ultrasound (US) and nisin, applied individually or in combination (US + nisin), were investigated to determine their inactivation effect on Staphylococcus aureus in nutrient broth (NB) and milk. The inactivation of S. aureus by nisin at 0,

Structural modeling of the hERG potassium channel and associated drug interactions

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
The voltage-gated potassium channel, KV11.1, encoded by the human Ether-à-go-go-Related Gene (hERG), is expressed in cardiac myocytes, where it is crucial for the membrane repolarization of the action potential.
