KAINIC ACID-INDUCED POST-STATUS EPILEPTICUS MODELS OF TEMPORAL LOBE EPILEPSY WITH DIVERGING SEIZURE PHENOTYPE AND NEUROPATHOLOGY

Kainic Acid-Induced Post-Status Epilepticus Models of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy with Diverging Seizure Phenotype and Neuropathology

The aim of epilepsy models is to investigate disease ontogenesis and therapeutic interventions in a consistent and prospective manner.The kainic acid-induced status epilepticus (KASE) rat model is a widely used, well-validated model for temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE).As we noted significant variability within the model between labs potentially relate

Use of Bituminous Geomembrane (BGM) to Waterproof Large Canals

Bituminous geomembranes (BGM) collaborate in the global challenge of improving water resources management by waterproofing hydraulic works.BGMs are multi-layered composite geomembranes with each of the components providing a technical benefit on large canals projects.These technical advantages include: A very low Manning coefficient for efficient w

Comparison of Microbial Communities in the Sediments and Water Columns of Frozen Cryoconite Holes in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica

Although cryoconite holes, sediment-filled melt holes on glacier surfaces, appear small and homogenous, their microbial inhabitants may be spatially partitioned.This partitioning could be particularly important for maintaining biodiversity in holes that remain isolated for many years, such Holiday Patterns as in Antarctica.We hypothesized that cryo
