MORPHOLOGICAL VARIATION IN THE DISTAL PHALANGES OF THE SPRINGBOK, ANTIDORCAS MARSUPIALIS (ZIMMERMANN, 1780) (MAMMALIA: BOVIDAE)

Morphological variation in the distal phalanges of the springbok, Antidorcas marsupialis (Zimmermann, 1780) (Mammalia: Bovidae)

A comparative study of distal phalanges belonging edgewater shoes to adult springbok individuals shows distinctive morphological differences between the subspecies Antidorcas marsupialis marsupialis and Antidorcas marsupialis hofmeyri, most notably reflected by significant lengthening of the sole of the latter.Results were derived from comparative

Increased thalamic glutamate/glutamine levels in migraineurs

Abstract Background Increased cortical excitability has been hypothesized to play a critical role in various neurological disorders, such as restless legs syndrome, epilepsy and migraine.Particularly for migraine, local hyperexcitability has been reported.Levels of regional excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters are related to cortical excitab

Influence of Surface Treatments on Urea Detection Using Si Electrolyte-Gated Transistors with Different Gate Electrodes

We investigated the impact of surface treatments on Si-based electrolyte-gated transistors (EGTs) for detecting urea.Three types of EGTs were fabricated with distinct gate electrodes (Ag, Au, Pt) using a top-down method.These EGTs exhibited exceptional intrinsic electrical properties, including a low subthreshold swing of 80 mV/dec, a high on/off c
