FEMALE ANNUAL REPRODUCTIVE CYCLE OF RHINOLOPHUS FERRUMEQUINUM KORAI (CHIROPTERA: RHINOLOPHIDAE): MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES AND PROLONGED SPERM STORAGE AND SPERM FATE OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE TRACT ACCORDING TO MONTH

Morphological changes and prolonged sperm storage and loss of female reproductive tract per year and site as well as reproductive cycle were investigated by using an optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope in Rhinolophus ferrumequinum korai.The size and morphological characteristics of the uterus were f

Scramblases catalyze the movement of lipids between both leaflets of a bilayer.Whereas the X-ray structure of the protein nhTMEM16 has previously revealed the architecture of a Ca2+-dependent lipid scramblase, its regulation mechanism has remained elusive.Here, we have used cryo-electron microscopy and functional assays to address this question.Ca2

In this mini-review, we summarize the evidences of lamellar twisting in the birefringent banded polymer spherulites demonstrated by various characterization techniques, such as polarized optical microscopy, real-time atomic force microscopy, micro-focus wide angle X-ray diffraction, etc.The real-time observation of lamellar growth under atomic forc

At first glance, it seems that a criminal or punitive sanction must have a positive effect, at least through intimidation, rehabilitation in preventing the unauthorized exploitation of underground water resources.But look at the statistics available from the commission of a crime reveals many problems in the current criminal Hyaluronic Acid policy
