We examined the in vitro bactericidal effects and efficacy on handwashing of water containing electrolytic products of sodium chloride (electrolytic water). The electrolytic water, whose pH and concentration of free residual chlorine were 6.7-6.9 and 20-22 ppm, respectively, showed equal reduction of both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli to dilution of commercially available sodium hy...

The aim of this research is to present a simple online condition monitoring system to predict failure of the aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the output LC filter of the switched mode DC–DC buck converters. Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) is the best indicator of the failure of the aluminium electrolytic capacitors. The main idea of the proposed method is to monitor the ESR value and...

Restricted electrolytic lesions of the lateral hypothalamus (LH) evoke sleeplessness in the rat. The present study was aimed to analyze a possible anatomical substrate of the LH hyposomnia within the hypothalamus. In a group of electrolytically lesioned LH rats the intensity of sleep disturbances, assessed on the basis of EEG records from the neocortex and the hippocampus, was confronted with t...

Electrolytic lesions of the dorsal hippocampus (DH) produce deficits in both the acquisition and expression of conditional fear to contextual stimuli in rats. To assess whether damage to DH neurons is responsible for these deficits, we performed three experiments to examine the effects of neurotoxic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) lesions of the DH on the acquisition and expression of fear conditio...

The borderline hypertensive rat is the first filial offspring of the spontaneously hypertensive rat and the Wistar-Kyoto rat. In response to acute environmental stress (air jet), the borderline hypertensive rat exhibits a diuretic response, whereas the parental strains exhibit an antidiuretic response (spontaneously hypertensive rat) or no change in urine flow rate (Wistar-Kyoto rat). This stud...

Precise localization of single-neuron activity has elucidated functional architectures of the primate cerebral cortex, related to vertically stacked layers and horizontally aligned columns. The traditional "gold standard" method for localizing recorded neuron is histological examination of electrolytic lesion marks at recording sites. Although this method can localize recorded neurons with fine...

I N THE previous paper a technique for the determination of the electrolytic resistance of the blood clot was presented (I). The present paper deals with the variations in the electrolytic resistance of the blood clot over a 40. to &-hour period, and with the physiological significance of certain measurements of the resistance. The curve of the resistance against time will be called the electro...

appeared a report on Electrolytic Chlorogen by Captain W. Hodgkinson, r.e., and Mr. C. M. Hutchinson, c.i.ii., Imperial Agricultural Bacteriologist of the Agricultural Research Institute, Pusa. The principal objects of this enquiry, which were carried out under the auspices of the Army Department (Simla), were to determine the possibility of preparing in India from indigenous materials and by s...
