Frequency of Light Onset on Activation and Sensory Reinforcement in Domestic Chicks

, 1971
100 chicks were exposed to 1 of 5 experimental conditions of differing frequencies of light onset with total light duration held constant during a 30-min. preconditioning phase. Within a subsequent 25-min.

Reliable Evaluation of Na‐Ion Battery Materials: Eliminating Na‐Metal Distortions

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Na metal is highly reactive in carbonate electrolytes, forming unstable interphases and triggering parasitic reactions that distort measurements and undermine reproducibility. To enable accurate evaluation of materials for Na‑ion batteries, this work suggests that NASICON‑type counter electrodes provide a practical and stable platform for distortion ...

Effects of Predrying and Spontaneous Fermentation Treatments on Nib Acidification, Fermentation Quality, and Flavour Attributes of Ghanaian Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) Beans

International Journal of Food Science
Cocoa bean acidification, fermentation, and flavour quality are intricately shaped by pulp preconditioning and fermentation treatments. This study investigates the impact of predrying and subsequent fermentation on key parameters such as pH, titratable ...

A new drag and lift correlation for spherocylinders from fully resolved Immersed Boundary Method

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Many industrial processes deal with non‐spherical particles, e.g., mineral mining and biomass conversion. It is crucial to understand the particles' hydrodynamics to control and optimize these processes. To extend the current state‐of‐the‐art from arrays of spherical particles to spherocylindrical particles, we performed extensive particle ...

Effect of Link N on the Expression of Neurotrophins and Substance P Release by Human Intervertebral Disc Cells Stimulated with Proinflammatory Cytokines

Global Spine Journal, 2014
Introduction Although there are different causes of low back pain, intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is one of them. In healthy discs, nociceptive nerve fibers and mechanoreceptors penetrate up to the outer annulus fibrosus (AF).

Hippocampal CB1 receptors control incidental associations [PDF]

, 2018
International audienceBy priming brain circuits, associations between low-salience stimuli often guide future behavioral choices through a process known as mediated or inferred learning. However, the precise neurobiological mechanisms of these incidental

A Two‐Stage Characterization Pipeline and Open‐Source Framework for Reproducible Tactile Sensing

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The same soft tactile sensor returns different numbers when embodied in different robots. This is an Embodiment Gap that no shared framework currently captures transparently. A two‐stage characterization pipeline, paired with a FAIR open‐source digital datasheet, decouples intrinsic sensor behavior from embodiment effects and condenses cross‐laboratory
