1. The beta-adrenoceptor (beta-AR) subtypes mediating relaxation of the rabbit, rat and canine detrusors were subjected to functional investigation using selective beta-AR agonists and antagonists. 2. In all three species, isoprenaline, noradrenaline and adrenaline each produced a concentration-dependent relaxation of

A novel space- and time-resolved photo-induced chemiluminescence (PICL) analytical method was developed based on the photocatalysis of the Co2+-doped TiO2 nanoparticles. The PICL reaction procedure under the photocatalysis of Co2+-doped TiO2 nanoparticles was investigated using cyclic voltammetry and potentiometry. Meanwhile
