The method is based on zwitterionic hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (ZIC-HILIC) coupled with photo diode array detector (...

Daniel Defoe is often perceived as one of the most influential and prolific writers in the world literature as well as the inventor of the English novel. Among Daniel Defoe’s various works, Moll Flanders (1722) is neither the most enduring nor the most popular one. But it is Defoe’s first novel, also the first one in the history of English literature, with a woman protagonist from the lowest so...

Data on the variation of crop volumes with time for blowflies (Phormia regina Meigen) fed various volumes and concentrations of fructose or sucrose (from Gelperin, 1966, and Edgecomb et al. 1987) were used to characterize energy processing rates to test the assumption of food energy addivity of optimal foraging theories. Six regression models (linear, square root, cube root, hyperbolic, inverse...

In July 1925, the psychiatrist Albert Moll appeared before the district court in Berlin-Schöneberg charged with having defamed the medium Maria Vollhardt (alias Rudloff) in his 1924 book Der Spiritismus [Spiritism]. Supported by some of Berlin's most prominent occultists, the plaintiff--the medium's husband--argued that Moll's use of terms such as 'trick', 'manipulation' and 'farce' in referenc...

Octopaminergic sensitivity of the glia that form the blood—brain barrier of the cockroach was examined using microelectrode recordings of the potential developed across this barrier layer, the perineurium. Exposure to 10~moll~ DL-octopamine had no significant effect upon the changes in potential induced by substitution of Tris for external sodium. Treatment with concentrations ranging from 10~m...
