UNLABELLED The existence of color-processing regions in the human ventral visual pathway (VVP) has long been known from patient and imaging studies, but their location in the cortex relative to other regions, their selectivity for color compared with other properties (shape and object category), and their relationship to color-processing regions found in nonhuman primates remain unclear. We add...

Preloaded and nonpreloaded dieters (restrained eaters) and nondieters (unrestrained eaters) completed a modified version of the Stroop task to measure selective biases in cognitive processing. In two separate studies, a milkshake preload led to increased cognitive interference for body shape words, especially for restrained eaters. There were no differences between restrained and unrestrained e...

Preparative high pressure liquid chromatography on US-Y zeolite shape-selective molecular sieve was studied for carbon isotopic fractionation e€ects. We tested a standard mixture [17b, 21b(H)-hopane, 5a-cholestane] and complex natural hydrocarbon mixtures dominated by tetraand pentacyclic triterpenoids extracted from Oxford Clay shales. We con®rmed that steroids and hopanoids were separated on ...

The lateral occipital cortex (LOC) activates selectively to images of intact objects versus scrambled controls, is selective for the figure-ground relationship of a scene, and exhibits at least some degree of invariance for size and position. Because of these attributes, it is considered to be a crucial part of the object recognition pathway. Here we show that human LOC is critically involved i...

Cyclodextrin phases are one of the most interesting geometry selective stationary phase in GC. 'beyare outstanding in their ability to separate isomeric and enantiomeric compounds. Two examples of the separation of cyclic compounds on cyclodextrins are given. The combination of chiral and achiral phases in series coupled columns is a useful tool for complicate separation and identification prob...
