In order to randomly sample horizontal cells (HCs) of carp retina, horseradish peoxidase (HRP) was delivered into axon terminals by means of vitreally inserted micropipettes in live fish. Survival time was extended to ...

Methyl mercury (MeHg) is highly neurotoxic, affecting visual function in addition to other central nervous system functions. The effect of mercury intoxication on the amplitude of horizontal cell responses to light was ...

Many animal species make use of ultraviolet (UV) light in a number of behaviors, such as feeding and mating. The goldfish (Carassius auratus) is among those with a UV photoreceptor and pronounced UV sensitivity. Little is ...

In the vertebrate retina, three types of photoreceptors - visual photoreceptor cones and rods and the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) - converged through evolution to detect light and regulate ...

Constructed wetlands (CW) have been widely used to treat different types of water, including acid mine drainage (AMD). However, little is known about their performance in the removal of As from AMD. In this study, a ...
