Summary Response properties of neurons in the visual cortex, area 17, of Long Evans pigmented rats were investigated quantitatively with computer-controlled stimuli. Ninety percent of the cells recorded (296/327) were responsive to visual stimulation. The majority (95%, 281/296) responded to moving images and were classified as complex (44%), simple (27%), hypercomplex (13%) and non-oriented (16%) according to criteria previously established for cortical cells in the cat and monkey. The remaining 5% of the neurons responded only to stationary stimuli flashed on-off in their receptive field. Results of this study indicate that neurons of the rat visual cortex have properties similar to those of cells in the striate cortex of more visual mammals.Supported by grant EY02964, the Biological Humanics Foundation and the Bendix Corporation 相似文献
Summary: In this work, blends of monomer casting polyamide 6 (MCPA6) and acrylonitrile‐butadiene‐styrene (ABS) were successfully prepared by in situ polymerization via the application of ε‐caprolactam as a reactive solvent. The morphology and thermal properties of MCPA6/ABS were investigated by means of wide angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The domain sizes of the ABS phase in MCPA6/ABS blends were much finer than those in corresponding polyamide 6 (PA6)/ABS blends prepared by simple melt blending. With an increased amount of ABS in MCPA6, the melt enthalpy (ΔHf), the rate of crystallization (Tc) and the degree of crystallinity (Xc(DSC)) of MCPA6 in MCPA6/ABS blends were all decreased. The degree of supercooling (ΔTd) showed a contrary trend. However, the melting temperatures of these blends were almost unchanged. All the results could be attributed to in situ polymerization and the hydrolysis reaction of ABS that occurred during the polymerization process. Furthermore, WAXD results showed that only α‐form crystals existed in the MCPA6/ABS blends, despite the ABS content and heat treatment.

Summary: Silica sols were first prepared based on different ratios of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and methyltriethoxysilane (MTES) by an acid‐catalyzed sol–gel process, and then incorporated into acrylic‐based polyurethanes. The structures and morphologies of silicone‐oxo clusters were studied by 29Si NMR, SAXS, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), whereas the mechanical properties of polyurethane/silica hybrids were characterized by DMA and tensile tests. The silicone‐oxo clusters in both silica sol and polyurethane hybrids became denser and larger at a higher molar ratio of TEOS/MTES and higher silica content, and the silica‐oxo clusters of polyurethane/silica hybrids even became more compact and larger than those of silica sols, increasing the elastic modulus and tensile strength of polyurethane/silica hybrids.

Abstract. The purpose of the present study was to examine the changes in maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) in the contralateral
untrained limb during unilateral resistance training and detraining, and to examine the factors inducing these changes by
means of electrophysiological techniques. Nine healthy males trained their plantar flexor muscles unilaterally 4 days·week–1 for 6 weeks using 3 sets of 10–12 repetitions at 70–75% of one-repetition maximum a day, and detrained for 6 weeks. Progressive
unilateral resistance training significantly (P<0.05) increased MVC, integrated electromyogram (iEMG), and voluntary activation in the trained and contralateral untrained
limbs. The changes in MVC after training were significantly correlated with the changes in iEMG in both limbs. No significant
changes occurred in MVC, voluntary activation, and iEMG in the contralateral limb after detraining. The changes in MVC after
detraining did not correlate with the changes in voluntary activation or iEMG in either limb. Training and detraining did
not alter twitch and tetanic peak torques in either limb. These results suggest that the mechanisms underlying cross education
of muscular strength may be explained by central neural factors during training, but not solely so during detraining.
