BACKGROUND Early gestation represents a period of vulnerability to environmental insult that has been associated with adult psychiatric disease. However, little is known about how prenatal perturbation translates into adult brain dysfunction. Here, we use a longitudinal study design to examine the effects of disruption of early gestational neurogenesis on brain volume in the non-human primate. ...

Although many oxide semiconductors possess wide bandgaps in the ultraviolet (UV) regime, currently the majority of them cannot efficiently emit UV light because the band-edge optical transition is forbidden in a perfect lattice as a result of the symmetry of the band-edge states. This quantum mechanical rule severely constrains the optical applications of wide-bandgap oxides, which is also the ...

Enterovirus (EV) has over 100 serotypes of species A-D, which can cause various symptoms in infants. Enterovirus encephalitis (EVE) is serve disease with high morbidity and mortality in children. To well define the epidemiology of EVE, we wanted to know more about EV and EV molecular typing by conducting this study in Hangzhou.Cerebrospinal fluid samples were collected from children with diagno...

the initial step in any breeding program including the breeding of walnut is an evaluation of the genetic diversity of its population and on identification of its superior and promising genotypes. this research was carried out during 2009-2010 growing seasons to evaluate the walnut genotypes, population grown in the vicinities of eghlid city, as one of the richest walnut population regions in t...

Embryos of freshwater snails undergo direct development from single cell to juvenile inside egg masses that are deposited on vegetation and other substratum in pond, lake and stream habitats. Helisoma trivolvis, a member of the Planorbidae family of basommatophoran snails, has served as a model for studying the developmental and physiological roles for neurotransmitters during embryogenesis. Ea...

In this paper, we investigated the interaction of simple carboxylic acids, formic acid (FA), acetic acid (AA), and propionic acid (PA) with thin layers of water ice in the temperature range of 110-190 K in ultrahigh vacuum. The focus, however, is on the AA-ice system. Molecularly thin layers of these systems were prepared on a pre-cooled polycrystalline copper substrate. The interactions and ph...

Acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) surveillance has been conducted as part of the World Health Organization (WHO) strategy on poliomyelitis eradication. Aside from poliovirus, which is the target pathogen, isolation, and identification of non-polio enteroviruses (NPEVs) is also done by neutralization test using pools of antisera which can only identify limited number of NPEVs. In the Philippines, de...
