On the dynamic order of structured Escherichia coli growth models
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1987-04-20)
Reliable dynamic descriptions of cellular growth are important for many practical applications including bioreactor design and control. A chemically structured growth model of Escherichia coli has been formulated and ...
A dual function activity-dependent, muscle-specific enhancer from rat nicotinic acetylcholine receptor δ-subunit gene
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1996-11)
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) mediate communication between nerve and muscle. The expression of these receptors increases dramatically during muscle development when myoblasts are fusing into multinucleated ...
Deficit in active avoidance learning in rats following penicillin injection into hippocampus
(Elsevier, 1971-06)
Penicillin was found to cause epileptiform (spike) activity when injected into the hippocampus of male rats. Animals so prepared were found to be severely impaired in the acquisition of a two-way active avoidance task. ...
Problems in the estimation and interpretation of the reliability of survey data
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1989-09)
In this paper I discuss several of the difficulties involved in estimating the reliability of survey measurement. Reliability is defined on the basis of classical true-score theory , as the correlational consistency of ...
Confidence intervals with fixed proportional accuracy
(Elsevier, 1986-1987)
The problem of setting a confidence interval with fixed proportional accuracy for the mean of a normal distribution is considered. A sequential procedure is proposed; and asymptotic expansions for its average coverage ...
Muscarine-sensitive voltage-dependent potassium current in cultured murine spinal cord neurons
(Elsevier, 1983-01-31)
Muscarine produced membrane depolarization and decreased membrane conductance of mouse spinal cord neurons in dissociated cell culture. When the neurons were voltage clamped, muscarine evoked inward currents which increased ...
Singh's theorem in the lattice case
(Elsevier, 1988-12)
The asymptotic behavior of the parametric bootstrap estimator of the sampling distribution of a maximum likelihood estimator is investigated in a simple lattice case, integer valued random variables whose distributions ...
Receptor Binding Techniques
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Elsevier/North‐Holland Biomedical Press, 1997-09)
This overview first discusses issues relating to the selection of radioligand for receptor binding assays, including the isotopic label and considerations pertaining to the pharmacological and chemical profile of the ligand. ...
Intracellular partitioning of androgen receptor immunoreactivity in the brain of the male syrian hamster: Effects of castration and steroid replacement
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1993-07)
The effect of castration and steroid replacement on the intracellular partitioning of the androgen receptor in the brain of the male Syrian hamster was determined using immunocytochemistry. Androgen receptors were visualized ...
The new approach to wilderness preservation through benefit-cost analysis
(Elsevier, 1982-03)
Over the last 15 years, economists of Resources for the Future led by John Krutilla have been developing a new approach to wilderness preservation. This paper offers a concise exposition of their approach and adds a few ...
