Melatonin prevents non-image-forming visual system alterations induced by experimental glaucoma in rats
(Springer, 2021-03)
Glaucoma is a blindness-causing disease that involves selective damage to retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons. A subset of RGCs expressing the photopigment melanopsin regulates non-image-forming visual system ...
Effect of retinal ischemia on the non-image forming visual system
(Taylor & Francis, 2014-09)
Retinal ischemic injury is an important cause of visual impairment. The loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) is a key sign of retinal ischemic damage. A subset of RGCs expressing the photopigment melanopsin (mRGCs) regulates ...
Chemometrics coupled to vibrational spectroscopy and spectroscopic imaging for the analysis of solid-phase pharmaceutical products: A brief review on non-destructive analytical methods
(Elsevier, 2018-11)
This brief review reports on selected case studies aimed at verifying the authenticity of medicinal products, content uniformity of tablets and polymorphic forms in final products, and monitoring pharmaceutical cocrystallization ...
Effect of experimental diabetic retinopathy on the non-image-forming visual system
(Taylor & Francis, 2013-05)
Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness. Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), which express the photopigment melanopsin, are involved in non-image-forming visual responses such as ...
Non-visual Opsins and Novel Photo-Detectors in the Vertebrate Inner Retina Mediate Light Responses Within the Blue Spectrum Region
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2020-11)
In recent decades, a number of novel non-visual opsin photopigments belonging to the family of G protein- coupled receptors, likely involved in a number of non-image-forming processes, have been identified and characterized ...
Use of image analysis in the study of competition between filamentous and non-filamentous bacteria
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2004-06)
One of the most common problems in the operation of activated sludge plants is the inability to separate solids from treated effluents in the clarifiers caused by the overgrowth of filamentous micro-organisms (FM) with respect ...
Effectiveness of chlorination and ozonation methods on pure cultures of floc-forming micro-organisms and activated sludge: A comparative study
(Water Research Commission, 2007-12)
Chlorination is a very useful control method of filamentous bulking in activated sludge systems; however, it favours formation of undesirable compounds such as trihalomethanes. Other oxidants, such as ozone, could be used ...
Fatores que interferem a autoimagem genital de idosas
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBrasilCiências da SaúdeUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em GerontologiaCentro de Educação Física e Desportos, 2020-08-07)
This master's thesis has genital self-image as its central theme. Genital self-image consists
of the identity of the genitalia in its personal representation, which can interfere with attitudes
and choices that ...
A percepção de imagem corporal de pessoas com deficiência física
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBrasilUFSMCentro de Ciências da Saúde, 2010-10-27)
In order to check the acquired handicapped people’s perception about their body figures, five
(5) people of both genders, males and females from twenty (20) to thirty-five (35) years of
age, participants of programs of ...
