Fast neuronal network oscillations in the gamma range (~30-80 Hz) have been implicated in higher brain functions such as memory formation and sensory processing. In hippocampal slice preparations gamma oscillations can be evoked by acetylcholine, which mimics cholinergic input from the septum. In this study, the O2 and energy demands of gamma oscillations were determined in acute mouse slices and in rat organotypic slice cultures by applying electrophysiology, O2 sensor microelectrodes and fluorescence imaging (NAD(P)H, FAD). It was shown that gamma oscillations decrease...

This book is a comprehensive reference work on the biology, management and health of crocodiles, alligators and gharials. It is applicable to both farmed and captive animals.

The introductory chapter describes crocodilian anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, and behavior. One chapter is devoted to important aspects of crocodile farming, namely nutrition, incubation of eggs, rearing, breeding, slaughter and welfare. Subsequent chapters cover transmissible, nontransmissible and organ diseases, and diseases of eggs and hatchlings.
