[The competence of health authorities to take restrict measures on rights in a situation of health crisis].

Joaquin Sarrion Esteve · 2020

We carry out a brief analysis of the constitutional grounds on health protection (arts. 43 in connection with 15 of the Spanish Constitution [CE]), in the sense that we don't need to consider exogenou…

Lhx9: a novel LIM-homeodomain gene expressed in the developing forebrain.

 · 1970

A novel LIM-homeodomain gene, Lhx9, was isolated by degenerate RT-PCR followed by mouse embryonic library screening. Lhx9 cDNA encodes a protein that is most closely related to Drosophila apterous and…

[Computer analysis of single channel current record by extracellular patch clamp].

 · 1970

Neher and Sakmann had provided the presence of the channel protein by the direct measurement of single channel current from excitable membrane in 1976. The advantage of this method "patch clamp" is to…
