Mouse Auditory Brainstem Response Testing

Authors: Omar Akil, A. E. Oursler, Kevin Fan and Lawrence R. Lustig, date: 03/20/2016, view: 6969, Q&A: 0

The auditory brainstem response (ABR) test provides information about the inner ear (cochlea) and the central pathways for hearing. The ABR reflects the electrical responses of both the cochlear ganglion neurons and the nuclei of the central ...

Enzymatic Synthesis and Fractionation of Fluorescent PolyU RNAs

Authors: Christian Beren, Katherine N. Liu, Lisa L. Dreesens, Charles M. Knobler and William M. Gelbart, date: 09/05/2018, view: 115, Q&A: 0

The physical properties of viral-length polyuridine (PolyU) RNAs, which cannot base-pair and form secondary structures, are compared with those of normal-composition RNAs, composed of comparable numbers of each of A, U, G and C nucleobases. In this ...
