Retinal capillary blood flow (RCF) before and after exposure to flicker light and to infusion of nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor N-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA), and parameters of retinal arteriolar morphology, e.g. wall-to-lumen ratio, were assessed non-invasively and in vivo by ...
Sample preparation and perfusion chamber A commercially available nanodiamond suspension (Microdiamant, MSY 0–0.05, median particle size: 25 nm) was purified five times by a centrifugation of 14,300 RCF for 30 min and the sedimentation was extracted each time in order to remove the sp2-like...

dissipated by non-photochemical quenching, particularly via the carotenoids of the xanthophyll cycle, which also contribute to the photoprotective function of the photosynthetic apparatus [9]. Interplay between accumulation of PheCs and carotenoids under excess light conditions is still ambiguous. In some...
In the 21 serum samples repeated at both three and six months pp, the antibody concentration remained stable or slightly increased between the third and sixth month regardless of the trimester of infection. The highest serum IgA antibody concentration at three months pp was measured when the ...
To ensure that cells in both G1 and G2 phases were present in each sample, cells were grown in continuous light (20°C), 60 μmol photons m-2 s-1. For each isolate, triplicate cultures were harvested at mid-exponential phase by centrifugation (15 min at 112 rcf). Cells were ...
