متن کاملHow Maternal Hormone Affects Developing Brains
Background: Under conditions of no strand bias the number of Gs is equal to that of Cs for each DNA strand; similarly, the total number of Ts is equal to that of As. However, within each strand there are considerable local deviations from the A = T and G = C equality. These asymmetries in nucleotide composition have been extensively analyzed in prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes and related to ...
متن کاملNon-polluting Automobiles
The advantages/disadvantages of energy storage devices, which can provide nonpolluting automobile systems are discussed. Four types of storage devices are identified: electro-chemical (batteries) hydrogen electro-mechanical (flywheels) Molten salt heat storage A high speed flywheel with a small permanent magnet motor/generator has more advantages than any of the other systems and might become a...
متن کاملA less polluting pig.
A Less Polluting Pig There's good news in the fight against farm pollution, say researchers in the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada. In August, John Phillips, Cecil Forsberg, and Serguei Golovan announced a new kind of pig that makes better use of phosphorus, a nutrient that in high concentrations can deplete oxygen levels in waters dow...
متن کاملEffects of repeated oral postnatal exposure to chlorpyrifos on cholinergic neurochemistry in developing rats.
The neurochemical effects of repeated postnatal exposure to chlorpyrifos (CPS) were studied in developing rats. Rats were gavaged daily from postnatal day (PND) 1-21 with CPS in corn oil starting at 1.5 mg/kg (low dosage group) and increasing gradually to 3 mg/kg and then to 6 mg/kg (high dosage group). Brain cholinesterase (ChE) activity was significantly inhibited on PND 6, 12, 22, and 30, wi...
