Water flow from soil to plants depends on the properties of the soil next to roots, the rhizosphere.
Although several studies showed that the rhizosphere has different properties than the …

The modulating effects of serotonin on dopamine neurotransmission are not well understood,
particularly in acute psychotic states. Positron emission tomography was used to examine …

At December 3rd 1996, the spallation neutron source SINQ had its first proton beam onthe
target. With a steady-state proton beam of 850 IlA this facility is now the strongest of its kind in …

Administration of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist S-ketamine in normals
produces a psychosis-like syndrome including several positive and negative symptoms of …

We used PET with the tracers [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), [18F]fluorodopa (FDOPA) and
[11C]raclopride (RACLO) to study striatal glucose and dopa metabolism, and dopamine D2 …

Neutron transmission tomography is a technique providing two- or three-dimensional maps
of the attenuation coefficient distribution within an object. By this means, the inner …

Energy-selective neutron radiography experiments were carried out at the ISIS pulsed spallation
source. This neutron transmission imaging technique combines the hardware used for …

• Despite the importance of rhizosphere properties for water flow from soil to roots, there is
limited quantitative information on the distribution of water in the rhizosphere of plants. • Here, …

Objective: To assess the relationship between striatal dopa decarboxylase capacity, D 2
dopamine receptor binding, and energy metabolism in Parkinson's disease (PD). Design: …

Water sorption of two superabsorbent polymers in cement-based pastes has been characterized
by neutron radiography. Cement pastes with W/C of 0.25 and 0.50 and one additionally …
