Toxic effects of Zn++ and Cu++ on mouse blastocysts in vitro
Mouse blastocysts were cultured in the presence of zinc and/or cupric chloride at various concentrations. Cupric ions were superior to Zn ++ at...

Instability as a Property of Plasma States
A plasma is a very simple state of matter. In the state of full ionization it consists of freely moving electrons and ions. Density and temperature...

1/f noise in black lipid membranes induced by ionic channels formed by chemically dimerized gramicidin A
The noise behavior of lipid bilayer membranes, doped with a chemically dimerized gramicidin A, was investigated. In contrast to normal gramicidin A,...
