Modulatory effects of nitric oxide-active drugs on the anticonvulsant activity of lamotrigine in an experimental model of partial complex epilepsy in the rat

Abstract Background The effects induced by administering the anticonvulsant lamotrigine, the preferential inhibitor of neuronal nitric oxide synthase 7-nitroindazole and the precursor of NO synthesis L-arginine, alone or in combination, on an experimental model of partial complex seizures (maximal dentate gyrus activation) were studied in urethane

Defining the biosecurity risk posed by transported soil: Effects of storage time and environmental exposure on survival of soil biota

Soil frequently occurs as a contaminant on numerous sea, land and air transport pathways.It can carry unwanted invasive species, is widely recognized as a biosecurity risk, and is usually strictly regulated by biosecurity authorities.However, little is known about relative risk levels between pathways, thus authorities have limited capability to id
