Brain plasticity and cognitive functions after ethanol consumption in C57BL/6J mice

Ethanol Priming and Its Effects on Consumption and Accumbal Plasticity

P-76: Effects of Concurrent Ethanol and Saccharin Consumption on Sperm Parameters in Adult Mice

Background: Since sperm parameters have a critical role in reproductive function, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of concomitant ethanol and saccharin consumption on sperm parameters in adult mice. Chronic ethanol consumption suppresses male reproductive function and sexual behavior in laboratory animals and humans. Furthermore, alcohol abuse by males has been correlated...

economic optimization and energy consumption in tray dryers

دراین پروژه به بررسی مدل سازی خشک کردن مواد غذایی با استفاده از هوای خشک در خشک کن آزمایشگاهی نوع سینی دار پرداخته شده است. برای آنالیز انتقال رطوبت در طی خشک شدن به طریق جابجایی، یک مدل لایه نازک برای انتقال رطوبت، مبتنی بر معادله نفوذ فیک در نظر گفته شده است که شامل انتقال همزمان جرم و انرژی بین فاز جامد و گاز می باشد. پروفایل دما و رطوبت برای سه نوع ماده غذایی شامل سیب زمینی، سیب و موز در طی...

Lateralization of Cognitive Functions in Aphasia after Right Brain Damage

PURPOSE The lateralization of cognitive functions in crossed aphasia in dextrals (CAD) has been explored and compared mainly with cases of aphasia with left hemisphere damage. However, comparing the neuropsychological aspects of CAD and aphasia after right brain damage in left-handers (ARL) could potentially provide more insights into the effect of a shift in the laterality of handedness or lan...

Ethanol consumption in mice: relationships with circadian period and entrainment.

A functional connection between the circadian timing system and alcohol consumption is suggested by multiple lines of converging evidence. Ethanol consumption perturbs physiological rhythms in hormone secretion, sleep, and body temperature; and conversely, genetic and environmental perturbations of the circadian system can alter alcohol intake. A fundamental property of the circadian pacemaker,...
