Electrophysiological investigations

Another unusual structure was identified from cereal leaf beetles, Oulema melanopus ( )-8-hydroxy-6-methyl-6-octen-3-one 199 was found to be a male-specific volatile. Electrophysiological investigations showed a sensitive detection of 199 by both sexes which is consistent with a male-produced aggregation pheromone [367]. The behaviour mediating capacity of the compound needs to be proven.

Severe symptomatic visual field constriction, affecting mostly the peripheral fields and without loss of visual acuity, was first reported in 1997 in three patients who had taken vigabatrin for 2-3 years (17), and reports continue to appear (18-24). Electrophysiological investigations suggested damage to the outer retina, and there was no recovery for up to 12 months after withdrawal. Over 50 other cases of visual field defects (including asymptomatic cases) were published thereafter, and 28 were known to the manufacturer before the initial publication (SEDA-21, 78) (SEDA-22, 92).

Regarding the choice of phospholipids most receptors, ion channels, and transporters work in membranes made from very different phospholipids, albeit with different degrees of cheerfulness. Phospholipids from yolk, brain, or soy beans with addition of cholesterol make good prolis. The experimenter who would like to fuse the vesicles with other membranes afterward (e.g., for electrophysiological investigations), needs special phospholipids (Rehm et al. 1989). 

During the first ISOT, only Jacques LeMagnen, the founder of the field of olfactory-endocrine relationships, whose later work linked animal and human studies, hinted at future developments. In his paper he remarked that. .. Electrophysiological investigation of olfactory and gustatory afferent fibres does not allow us to analyse the discriminatory process itself. Only behavioural data can actually reveal the differential effects of the given stimuli on the olfactory system. Thanks however to the work of Adrian, Pfaffman and of the Swedish and other workers, modern electrophysiological...
