Effect of unilateral trauma of the sciatic nerve on characteristics of motor and reflex responses of paired gastrocnemius muscles | Vliianie odnostoronnei travmy sedalishchnogo nerva na kharakteristiki motornykh i reflektornykh otvetov parnykh ikronozhnykh myshts krysy.

The influence of unilateral n. ischiadicus lesion of conductivity on the electromyographic characteristics of the rat gastrocnemius muscles was investigated. The lesion was made by n. ischiadicus crashing. Motor and reflex gastrocnemius muscles' responses caused by n. ischiadicus stimulation (single impulses of various intensity and 0.3 ms duration) were estimated on broken and symmetric hind-limb before and 1, 5, 10, 20 and 30 days after the nerve crashing. Considerable changes of threshold and amplitude of the registered gastrocnemius muscle responses were observed ipsi- and contralaterally. It is suggested that the central dependence of processes arising in the motor centres of symmetric gastrocnemius muscles, follows unilateral n. ischiadicus lesion

Opto-thermoelectric nanotweezers

Optical manipulation of plasmonic nanoparticles provides opportunities for fundamental and technical innovation in nanophotonics. Optical heating arising from the photon-to-phonon conversion is considered as an intrinsic loss in metal nanoparticles, which limits their applications. We show here that this drawback can be turned into an advantage, by developing an extremely low-power optical tweezing technique, termed opto-thermoelectric nanotweezers. By optically heating a thermoplasmonic substrate, a light-directed thermoelectric field can be generated due to spatial separation of dissolved ions within the heating laser spot, which allows us to manipulate metal nanoparticles of a wide range of materials, sizes and shapes with single-particle resolution. In combination with dark-field optical imaging, nanoparticles can be selectively trapped and their spectroscopic response can be resolved in situ. With its simple optics, versatile low-power operation, applicability to diverse nanoparticles and tunable working wavelength, opto-thermoelectric nanotweezers will become a powerful tool in colloid science and nanotechnology
