Kinetics and thermodynamics of flip-flop in binary phospholipid membranes measured by sum-frequency vibrational spectroscopy.

Nov 2009 In order to better characterize the dependence of lipid flip-flop rate and thermodynamics on the nature of the lipid headgroup, we have studied the kinetics of flip-flop for single-lipid and mixed-lipid bilayers consisting of ... Read more...


Anatomy and physiology of a set of low-frequency vibratory interneurons in a nonhearing ensiferan (Troglophilus neglectus, rhaphidophoridae).

18 Oct 2009 Vibratory interneurons were investigated in a primitive nonhearing ensiferan (orthopteran) species (Troglophilus neglectus, Rhaphidophoridae), using intracellular recording and staining technique. The study included 26 morphologically and/or ... Read more...


No neural evidence for dynamic auditory tuning of the A1 receptor in the ear of the noctuid moth, Noctua pronuba.

29 Sep 2009 By examining the mechanical properties of the tympanum of the noctuid moth, Noctua pronuba, Windmill et al. (2006) suggested that this insect increases (up-tunes) the frequencies of its best hearing when exposed to high intensity sounds (HIS) ... Read more...
