vibrio cholerae o1 are classified into two biotypes, classical and el tor based on susceptibility to bacteriophages and some biochemical properties, each encoding a biotype-specific genetic determinants. before 1961, most epidemics had been caused by the classical biotype. however, with the passage of time, the classical biotype missed from the scenario and the el tor emerged as the major bioty...

individual differences among human beings are clear and undeniable. many of these differences are due to genetic or environmental factors. in this article, we have studied the individual differences caused by genetic factors according to the quran and the traditions of ahlulbayt (pbuh). this research has been organized by analytic and descriptive approach. after the extraction and classificatio...

This study provides further evidence that the time-of-day (TOD) when testing is conducted affects cognitive performance in old rats and, for the first time in an animal model, in young adult rats as well. Groups of young and old rats were entrained to a 12-h light-dark schedule and administered tests of learning and memory in a non-matching-to-sample (NMTS) task in a water maze. Testing was con...

OBJECTIVE Declines in working memory are a ubiquitous finding within the cognitive-aging literature. A unitary inhibitory selection mechanism that serves to guide attention toward task-relevant information and resolve interference from task-irrelevant information has been proposed to underlie such deficits. However, inhibition can occur at multiple time points in the memory-processing stream. H...

The authors demonstrate that the timing and sequencing of target durations require low-level timing and executive control. Sixteen young (M-sub(age) = 19 years) and 16 older (M-sub(age) = 70 years) adults participated in 2 experiments. In Experiment 1, individual mean-variance functions for low-level timing (isochronous tapping) and the sequencing of multiple targets (rhythm production) reveale...
