The vasculature is established by the 18th day of gestation in rats, and comes from the arterial supply as the anterior cerebral vessel, eventually entering the basal lamina via septal tributaries of the olfactory artery (Szabo, 1988). Unlike the MOE, the organ s capillaries penetrate in loops into the neuroepithelium. Blood from the vomeronasal complex arrives for collection in the vomeronasal vein, as described earlier [Fig. 2.11(a)]. The establishment of the highly vascular columnar complexes seen in the ophidian organ has not been correlated with functional development (c.f. Wang and Halpem, 1980 Holtzman and Halpem, 1990). 

For the function F two main classes of realizations have been put forward (see in particular Adamo, di Matteo, and Barone, 1999). The first one is based on a GGA exchange functional developed by Becke, 1988b. As outlined above, this functional is abbreviated simply as B (sometimes one also finds B88)... 

Functionals which are related to this approach include among others the recent FT97 functional of Filatov and Thiel, 1997, the PW91 exchange functional (Perdew, 1991, and Burke, Perdew, and Wang, 1998) and the CAM(A) and CAM(B) functionals developed by Handy and coworkers (Laming, Termath, and Handy, 1993).

Children sometimes differ from adults in their susceptibility to hazardous chemicals, but whether there is a difference depends on the chemical (Guzelian et al. 1992 NRC 1993). Children may be more or less susceptible than adults to health effects and the relationship may change with developmental age (Guzelian et al. 1992 NRC 1993). Vulnerability often depends on developmental stage. There are critical periods of structural and functional development during both pre-natal and post-natal life and a particular structure or function will be most sensitive to disruption during its critical period(s).

Fundamental challenges in computational chemistry include the high computational cost of ab initio calculations in terms of time, memory, and disk space requirements difficulties that arise when standard advanced computational treatments are used to describe processes such as bond breaking determination of the best approach toward functional development in density functional theorgy, understanding the means for quantitative prediction of thermonuclear kinetics and computational chemistry treatment of transition metal systems for reliable prediction of molecular properties. This book addresses these important problems, featuring chapters by leading computational chemists and physicists.
