Based on single-cell and fMRI data, two di1erent current models of the topographical and functional organization of the prefrontal cortex has been proposed: organization-by-stimulusdomain model, and organization-by-process model. The present work utilizes a computational neuroscience-based approach in order to integrate, via a detailed large-scale microscopic neurodynamical computational model,...

An assay technique, homogeneous enzyme immunoassay, is described for the quantitative determination of morphine derivatives in biological fluids. An enzyme is labeled with morphine. When the enzymelabeled morphine is bound by antimorphine antibodies, the enzyme is rendered inactive. Free morphine competes with enzyme-morphine for antibody binding sites preventing inhibition of enzyme activity. ...

Rainbow trout, oncorhynchus mykiss is one of the most important cold water fishes in Iran. For successful artificial propagation of rainbow trout, the quality and quantity of brooders and sexual materials are key factors. In the present study, we investigated the age-dependent changes of reproductive efficiency. For this purpose, the brooders were divided into age classes and then three age gro...
