The white matter of the rabbit flocculus is subdivided into five compartments by narrow sheets of densely staining acetylcholinesterase-positive fibers. The most lateral compartment is continuous with the C2 compartment of the paraflocculus and contains the posterior interposed nucleus. The other four compartments are numbered from lateral to medial as floccular compartments 1, 2, 3, and 4 (FC1...

Background: Contagious ecthyma or orf is a poxviral disease of goat and sheep, with incidental infection appearing in humans, cows, camels, and many wild ruminants, and very rarely in dogs. Case description: In the present paper was described gross morphology and histopathology of contagious ecthyma in a dog with a large ulcerated cutaneous mass in the neck (under the collar) which was ma...

When blasting to enhance permeability in deep-buried soft coal mining face with a hard roof whose gas drainage requirement is higher, the charging hole and control (which doubles as hole) are easy be deformed damaged, seriously affecting implementation effect. Combining stratum characteristics of seam surrounding rock, idea arranging boreholes near rock reduce deformation, inspired by end effec...

Some of the views presented in the chapter on 'Examination of stratum corneum hydration state by electrical methods' in Skin Bioengineering - Techniques and Applications in Dermatology and Cosmetology (Karger, 1998) are in strong disagreement with the results from basic research that has been conducted on skin impedance measurement over the last decades. This research has e.g. non-ambiguously s...

Scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy was used to image localized regions of calcein transport across human stratum corneum during constant low-voltage (iontophoresis) and pulsed high-voltage exposures. Following an electrical protocol, imaging revealed regions of fluorescence which were interpreted as sites where transport of a fluorescent probe (calcein) into the stratum corneum had taken...

The data in this article shows the effect of isopropyl myristate (IPM) on a 2D Stratum Corneum lipid model. In the first part, the analytical characterization of the synthesized deuterated isopropyl myristate is given. Then a BAM image of the pure Stratum Corneum model used is shown and a dataset of surface-pressure - area isotherms considering various ratios of deuterated and non-deuterated IP...

In recent years, adhesive wound dressings have been increasingly applied postoperatively because of their ease of use as they can be kept in place without having to cut and apply surgical tapes and they can cover a wound securely. However, if a wound dressing strongly adheres to the wound, a large amount of stratum corneum is removed from the newly formed epithelium or healthy periwound skin. V...

structure of the epidermis of those areas of skin subject to tylosis, and we suggest that both tissues may be responsive to the same functional requirement-namely, the need to provide resistance to mechanical friction. Human epidermis can be classified into "thick" and "thin" types.3 Thick skin is found most characteristically on the palms and soles, and relative to thin skin it has a thicker s...

Skin can no more be viewed as specialized wrapping material but more extensively as a complex organ actively communicating with the external world. Two groups were studied in the present investigation, one in peak summer and the other in peak winter, respectively. In lipid histochemistry, the super cial layer of epidermis of both summer and winter comprising stratum corneum and stratum lucidum...

The μ-invariant μ = (μ1, μ2, μ3) of a rational space curve gives important information about the curve. In this paper, we describe the structure of all parameterizations that have the same μ-type, what we call a μ-stratum, and as well the closure of strata. Many of our results are based on papers by the second author that appeared in the commutative algebra literature. We also present new resul...
