General description

Cresyl Violet perchlorate, also known as oxazine 9, is a laser dye. Cresyl violet is a small diaminobenzooxazine with a moderately sized planar conjugated system.

Application

Among its many applications, Cresyl Violet can be used to stain for Nissl substance and nuclei in nervous tissue and the identification of Helicobacter. Cresyl Violet perchlorate has been used to make cresyl violet perchlorate-polymer composite thin films. It also has been used as a fluorescence standard.

Our previous study has shown that an extremely low-frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) induces nitric oxide (NO) synthesis by Ca(2+) -dependent NO synthase (NOS) in rat brain. The present study was designed to confirm that ELF-MF affects neuronal NOS (nNOS) in

Recent studies suggest that exposure to only one component of audiovisual events can lead to cross-modal cortical activation. However, it is not certain whether such crossmodal recruitment can occur in the absence of explicit conditioning, semantic factors, or long-term associations.

During development, the risk of developing mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) increases when the developing brain is exposed to more than one insult in early life. Early life insults include abnormalities of cortical development, hypoxic-ischemic injury and prolonged febrile seizures.
