  2. Anabaena - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anabaena

    Anabaena is used as a model organism to study simple vision. The process in which light changes the shape of molecules in the retina, thereby driving the cellular reactions and signals that cause vision in vertebrates, is studied in Anabaena. Anabaena sensory rhodopsin, a specific light-sensitive membrane protein, is central to this research. [5]

  3. Cyanobacterial morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanobacterial_morphology

    Cyanobacterial cell division and cell growth mutant phenotypes in Synechocystis, Synechococcus, and Anabaena. Stars indicate gene essentiality in the respective organism. While one gene can be essential in one cyanobacterial organism/morphotype, it does not necessarily mean it is essential in all other cyanobacteria. N/A indicates that no ...

  4. High-power field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-power_field

    The area provides a reference unit, for example in reference ranges for urine tests. [3]Used for grading of soft tissue tumors: Grading, usually on a scale of I to III, is based on the degree of differentiation, the average number of mitoses per high-power field, cellularity, pleomorphism, and an estimate of the extent of necrosis (presumably a reflection of rate of growth).

  5. Heterocyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterocyst

    A notable symbiotic relationship is that of Anabaena azollae [a] cyanobacteria with Azolla plants. Anabaena reside on the stems and within leaves of Azolla plants. [8] The Azolla plant undergoes photosynthesis and provides fixed carbon for the Anabaena to use as an energy source for dinitrogenases in the heterocyst cells. [8]

  6. Anabaena circinalis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anabaena_circinalis

    Anabaena circinalis is a species of Gram-negative, photosynthetic cyanobacteria common to freshwater environments throughout the world. Much of the scientific interest in A. circinalis owes to its production of several potentially harmful cyanotoxins, ranging in potency from irritating to lethal. [ 1 ]

  7. User guide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_guide

    In some business software applications, where groups of users have access to only a sub-set of the application's full functionality, a user guide may be prepared for each group. An example of this approach is the Autodesk Topobase 2010 Help [ 6 ] document, which contains separate Administrator Guides , User Guides , and a Developer's Guide .

  8. Live-cell imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live-cell_imaging

    Under physiological conditions, many cells and tissue types are exposed to only low levels of light. [32] As a result, it is important to minimize the exposure of live cells to high doses of ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR), or fluorescence exciting wavelengths of light, which can damage DNA , raise cellular temperatures, and cause ...

  9. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.
