| formant frequency discrimination by japanese macaques (macaca fuscata). | these studies investigated formant frequency discrimination by japanese macaques (macaca fuscata) using an ax discrimination procedure and techniques of operant conditioning. nonhuman subjects were significantly more sensitive to increments in the center frequency of either the first (f1) or second (f2) formant of single-formant complexes than to corresponding pure-tone frequency shifts. furthermore, difference limens (dls) for multiformant signals were not significantly different than those for ... | 1992 | 1619126 |
| histological and histochemical investigations on japanese lizard esophagus. | the authors previously investigated the bottle-shaped glands distributed in the lamina propria mucosae of the japanese lizard and gecko. we made two sets of sections of the japanese lizard at that time. the numerical values of the physical dimensions of the two individuals were as given table 1, showing that no. 2 was slightly smaller. moreover we found very unusual tissue in the lower portion of the esophagus of no. 2. therefore we excluded this individual from the preceding investigations. how ... | 1992 | 1620528 |
| on oscillating neuronal responses in the visual cortex of the monkey. | 1. recent studies of visual processing in the cat have shown stimulus-related oscillations in the 30- to 70-hz range. we sought to replicate these findings in the monkey. 2. we recorded multiunit activity (mua) and local field potentials (lfp) in areas v1 and middle-temporal area (mt), and mua from the inferotemporal cortex (it) of monkeys (macaca fuscata). recordings in all areas were made under conditions of anesthesia as close as possible to those in previous studies of oscillating responses ... | 1992 | 1629758 |
| undecalcified temporal bone morphology: a methodology useful for gross to fine observation and three-dimensional reconstruction. | using a novel method of cutting undecalcified temporal bone specimens, quantitative structural analysis in the human and the japanese monkey was undertaken. one millimeter thick serial slices made from unembedded temporal bones retained fine structure. therefore, gross to fine observation could be performed systematically at the macroscopic, light, scanning, and transmission electron microscopic levels. the entire temporal bone three-dimensional reconstruction was completed from embedded section ... | 1992 | 1636426 |
| enzymes that metabolize acyl-coenzyme a in the monkey--their distribution, properties and roles in an alternative pathway for the excretion of nitrogen. | 1. in various tissues from the monkey (macaca fuscata), acyl-coenzyme a (coa) hydrolase activities were found to be widely distributed within a 2-10 times range and present in liver cytosol having mol. wt of ca 60,000. 2. acyl-coa: amino acid n-acyltransferase activity were 4-250 times higher in liver and kidney than in other tissues, even no activity in heart, lung, and plasma. 3. the transferases abounded in liver mitochondria, being distributed evenly between the intracristate space, the inne ... | 1991 | 1673104 |
