E de Boer, A L Nuttall

Abstract

The purpose of this investigation is to present evidence from experimental as well as model results on temporal variations of the frequency of oscillation in the basilar membrane's impulse response. Stimuli were either clicks leading to a direct estimate of the impulse response, or bands of pseudo-random noise (one or two octaves wide) which lead to an indirect estimate of the impulse response via a cross-correlation procedure. The noise bands were centered at the best frequency of the BM location under observation. Responses were obtained from the basal turn of the guinea-pig cochlea, from a location with a best frequency (for the weakest stimuli) between 17.0 and 18.5 kHz. Data acquisition was done with a sample frequency of 208 kHz. Input-output cross-correlation functions were found to share with impulse responses the property that the initial oscillations have a noticeably lower frequency than the later ones. During the impulse response the frequency of oscillation increases gradually. This increase occurs and continues to beyond the time that the oscillations reach the largest amplitude. This frequency variation is called a "glide." Using the "analytic signal" method the frequency of oscillation is found to increase conti...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
