Scanning Electron Microscopic Study Of The Postnatal Development Of The Rabbit Cochlea, With An Emphasis On Innervation, Hirofumi Morita, Tomoyuki Hoshino, Kunihiro Mizuta, Satoshi Iwasaki

Scanning Microscopy

The development of nerve fiber arrangements of the organ of Corti was studied in rabbits 1, 3, 5, 7 and 12-days-old using thick sections from celloidin-embedded cochleas which were examined under a scanning electron microscope. The arrangements of nerve fibers varied with developmental age. The tunnel spiral bundle was thick and loosely collected in the immature cochlea. The outer spiral fibers were recognized even in the narrow space of Nuel in the one-day-old cochlea. As Nuel's space is extending, the fibers course along the medial side of Deiters' cells. The arrangement of the outer spiral fibers was irregular and sparse …

Planned Unit Development And Takings Post Dolan, Clyde W. Forrest

Northern Illinois University Law Review

Growing tensions between government efforts to require private property use or development in ways that promote the health, safety, and general quality of life within our communities are exacerbated by the so-called "Takings" cases. In Dolan v. City of Tigard, the United States Supreme Court declared a local condition of approval of a development permit to be insufficiently supported by the findings of the city. This article discusses how this decision seriously undermines the traditional presumption of validity of local Planned Unit development permit decisions and imposes a level of proof about such conditions which may result in denials of …

Portfolio Analysis And Cognitive Development At Fairhaven College, Marie Eaton, Gary (Gary Russell) Mckinney, Joseph E. Trimble, Jacqueline M. Andrieu-Parker

Office of Institutional Effectiveness

Executive Summary: This study was undertaken to establish a technique for quantifying nontraditional assessment outcomes data, to ascertain the effectiveness of the Fairhaven methodology of education, and to provide feedback about that methodology to Fairhaven instructors and administrators. Two assessment tools were utilized: the Perry scheme and the Measure of Intellectual Development (MID). The Perry scheme is a stratified model of cognitive development; the MID is a rating system that allows researchers to assign scores to Perry scheme positions. For both, student writing samples are the most commonly used form of input data. In lieu of letter grades, Fairhaven students …

Effects Of Antioxidants On Development Of In Vitro Fertilized Bovine Embryos, Bret L. Anderson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Free radicals are short-lived molecules that can cause decreased embryonic development in vitro. Antioxidants are molecules that block free radical formation or guard against their harmful effects. Many studies have linked exposure of media to light and culturing of embryos in high (20%) oxygen concentrations to free radical production. Some of the antioxidants used in culture media are superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, zinc (II), ethylenedinitrilo tetraacetic acid (EDTA), mannitol, vitamin E, dimethyl sulfide, and taurine. Most research involving antioxidants and embryonic development has been conducted on non-farm animals, particularly mouse and rabbit. Studies have shown that antioxidants in vitro culture …
