on these dishes. the motility and vitality of the parasite were observed immediately after application of the treatment under light microscope and 5min later then till time of death were noted according to the method carried by [ 39 ]. fish and cultural conditions for the in- vivo assay, ...
2 Most ion channels are not permanently open; rather, they can be selectively opened and closed in response to extracellular signals, allowing the cell to control the movements of ions across the membrane, thus serving as ‘smart’ gates that regulate the internal environment. In recent years, ...
(i) non-specific adsorption to the surface of solid-state nanochannels, which would affect the ion pathways and may cause false signals during the gating process,17,18and (ii) the ionic current on the edge (such as the part embedded within cell membranes) behaves differently than the inner ...
Imaging under a stereo microscope showed a rapid movement of the pollen clump immediately upon contact with liquid. This rapid movement was mainly caused by the momentary swelling of the pollen grains (Video S1). Despite the vigorous movement, it was noticeable that the neighboring pollen grains ...
The experimental arena used for predatory mite assays was a modified Munger cell-type arena [44,45] consisting of two glass microscope slides, a 3 cm bean leaf disc, and craft foam with a 2 cm circle cut in the center that formed the arena space. After placing thrips larvae and mites ...
