Correlation of 3-mercaptopropionic acid induced seizures and changes in striatal neurotransmitters monitored by microdialysis.

Eur. J. Pharm. Sci. 57 , 25-33, (2014)

The goal of this study was to use a status epilepticus steady-state chemical model in rats using the convulsant, 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA), and to compare the changes in striatal neurotransmission on a slow (5min) and fast (60s) timescale. In vivo micr...

X-ray diffraction, spectroscopic and thermal studies on a potential semiorganic NLO material: lithium bis-L-malato borate.

A semiorganic nonlinear optical material, lithium bis-L-malato borate (LBMB) (molecular formula C8H8BLiO10), has been synthesized, and single crystals grown from an aqueous solution, by the method of slow evaporation at 30 degrees C. Crystals of size up to 7 ...

Greenlight: from potassium-titanyl-phosphate to lithium triborate or from good to better?

Curr. Opin. Urol. 21(1) , 27-30, (2011)

To report on the latest data in the recent literature regarding the so-called 'Greenlight laser vaporization of the prostate'. Specifically to comment on the evolution of the 80-W KTP (potassium-titanyl-phosphate) system to the more recent 120-W LBO (lithium ...

Comparative study of LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si and Li2B4O7:Cu,Ag,P TL detectors.

Radiat. Prot. Dosimetry 119(1-4) , 191-6, (2006)

Recently, two new types of 'tissue equivalent' thermoluminescent detectors (TLDs) have aroused attention: LiF:Mg,Cu,Na,Si and Li2B4O7:Cu,Ag,P. In this work the characteristics of both detectors were compared with the characteristics of the well-known type LiF...

Experimental study of the generation of a blue laser by intracavity frequency doubling of a cw Nd:GdVO4 laser with lithium borate.

Appl. Opt. 48(16) , 2979-82, (2009)

Efficient cw intracavity frequency doubling of a diode end-pumped Nd:GdVO4 laser that operates in the 4F(3/2) --> 4I(9/2) transition at 912 nm is demonstrated. A 15 mm long lithium borate crystal, cut for critical type I phase matching at room temperature, wa...

Thermal, structural, optical, and dielectric properties of (100 - x)Li2B4O7 - x(BaO-Bi2O3-Nb2O5) glasses and glass-nanocrystal composites.

J. Nanosci. Nanotechnol. 7(3) , 1006-13, (2007)

Transparent glasses in the system (100 - x)Li2B4O7 - x(BaO-Bi2O3-Nb2O5) (x = 10, 20, and 30) were fabricated via the conventional melt-quenching technique. The amorphous and glassy characteristics of the as-quenched samples were established by the differentia...
