Photoevoked Response Of The Optic Tectum In Larval Stage Xii And Juvenile Rana Catesbeiana, Michael Gale Phillips Jan 1976

Photoevoked Response Of The Optic Tectum In Larval Stage Xii And Juvenile Rana Catesbeiana, Michael Gale Phillips

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The previous cytological and electrophysiological work suggests that the optic tectum matures during metamorphic climax. It was the aim of the present work to attempt to compare pre metamorphic (Stage XII) larval and post metamorphic juvenile, Rana catesbeiana, using a photostimulated evoked electroencephalographic (E.E.G.) response in the optic tectum and correlate that with tissue studies to verify neurophysiological maturation of the optic tectum.


The Antibiogram As An Aid In The Identification Of The Klebsiella-Enterobacter-Serratia Group, Richard Keith Hall Jan 1976

The Antibiogram As An Aid In The Identification Of The Klebsiella-Enterobacter-Serratia Group, Richard Keith Hall

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to examine and evaluate the K-E-S group from this community with respect to distribution in clinical materials, detailed individual biochemical characteristics, and antibiogram patterns using the Bauer-Kirby disc technique, and compare these findings with those of other investigators from other geographic locations. As far as can be determined, this is the only study of its kind on the West Coast of the United States.


Visualization Of Neuronal Geometry In Ventral Nerve Cord Ganglia Of Acheta Domesticus, Gordon William Luke Jan 1976

Visualization Of Neuronal Geometry In Ventral Nerve Cord Ganglia Of Acheta Domesticus, Gordon William Luke

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The present is an attempt to show the pattern of innervation, or neuronal geometry, of various nerves leading to their respective ganglia (Fig. 1) and to obtain visualization of the finest terminal branches. A description of the cellular arrangement of a segmental ganglion would be of value in better understanding the results obtained when using the axonal iontophoresis method applied to the third through seventh ventral nerve cord ganglia. A segmental ganglion of the thorax or abdomen is usually an oval mass of nerve tissue, continuous with the interganglionic connectives (Fig. A). Two or three principal lateral nerves extend from …
