Slow dynamics of n-butoxyethanol–water mixture by neutron spin echo technique

We have measured the dynamics of n-buoxyethanol–water mixture of alcohol mole fraction 0.09 by using a neutron spin echo (NSE) technique at 8, 25, and 37 °C, below a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of ...

Neutron spin echo studies of the effects of temperature and pressure in a ternary microemulsion

In order to clarify the self-assembling mechanisms in complex fluids involving amphiphiles, we have investigated dynamic features of amphiphilic membranes and droplets at high temperature and at high pressure ...

Expression of paraoxonase isoform did not confer protection from acute sarin poisoning in the Tokyo subway terrorist attack

We previously reported the polymorphism of the high density lipoprotein-associated enzyme paraoxonase (PON1), in the 10 sarin poisoning victims in the Tokyo subway terrorist attack. Arg₁₉₂ PON1, which has low sa...

Hydrodynamic interactions in the structural fluctuation of a ternary amphiphilic system C₁₂E₅/water/ n-octane

Dynamical fluctuations of microemulsion and lamellar structures in a ternary amphiphilic system C₁₂E ₅/water/n-octane are studied by means of neutron spin echo spectrometry. The decay rate of the time correlation...

Apraxia of speech associated with an infarct in the precentral gyrus of the insula

It has been postulated that the precentral gyrus in the left insula is responsible for co-ordination of speech. We report a paitent with this disturbance who showed an acute infarct limited to this region.

Does the sequence of onset of rigor mortis depend on the proportion of muscle fibre types and on intra-muscular glycogen content?

We examined the postmortem changes in the levels of ATP, glycogen and lactic acid in two masticatory muscles and three leg muscles of rats. The proportion of fibre types of the muscles was determined with NIH...

Expression of phosphotyrosine and SNAP-25 immunoreactivity in grumose (foamy) spheroid bodies suggests axonal regeneration

To investigate the origin of grumose (foamy) spheroid bodies (GFSB), the expression of two proteins associated with axonal regeneration, i.e., phosphotyrosine and 25-kDa synaptosomal-associated protein (SNAP-...
