In vitro systems of high biological organization, e.g. containing intact hepatocytes, have been considered as more reliable for metabolic studies and in vivo predictions of toxicokinetics than subcellular systems. For this reason, the kinetics and metabolism of low-molecular-weight volatile chemicals

The "across-neuron pattern" theory of olfactory information coding states that odorants are represented by spatial patterns of activity produced across-neurons in the olfactory bulbs. The present study analyzes the different response patterns encoding olfactory information in both the inspiratory and

The primary olfactory neuropil, the antennal lobe (AL) in insects, is organized in glomeruli. Glomerular activity patterns are believed to represent the across-fibre pattern of the olfactory code. These patterns depend on an organized innervation from the afferent receptor cells

The Meyer-Overton rule has been interpreted to mean that general anesthetics act at a nonpolar site, either in a lipid bilayer or a protein. Optical isomers, also called enantiomers, are pairs of compounds with the same molecular formula and functional

The chemical composition of Porella arboris-vitae extracts was determined by solid phase microextraction, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME GC-MS), and 66 constituents were identified. The dominant compounds in methanol extract of P. arboris-vitae were β-caryophyllene (14.7%), α-gurjunene (10.9%), α-selinene (10.8%), β-elemene
