Age sensitivity of the Barnes Maze and the Morris Water Maze: Associations with cerebellar cortical Purkinje neurons
… substrates as assessed by the Morris water maze (MWM) and the Barnes maze. The MWM is one of the most widely used tests of spatial memory and numerous studies suggest that spatial memory abilities decline with age. To contrast, very few studies exist comparing different ages of mice in the less …

The Effects of Aniracetam Treatment on Cognitive Performance and AMPA Receptor GluR2 Subunit Expression After Moderate Fluid Percussion Injury in Rats
… cognitive performance in the Morris water maze (MWM) and on the GluR2 - immunoreactivity and protein expression by Western blot analysis in the hippocampus. The first study examined the optimal dose of aniracetam in the MWM task. Animals received aniracetam (25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg) or vehicle once …

Numerical Simulations in Electro-osmotic Flow
… were compared between the moving wall model (MWM) and electro-osmotic flow (EOF) at Reynolds numbers of 1 and 1800, and Z > 2500. Also, Z-values between 50 and 500 were studied to investigate the accuracy of the MWM. Results show that for Z-values greater than 100 the MWM shows good agreement …

Bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbons using microbial fuel cells
… with concomitant power production (up to 1.25 mWm-2). The performance of MFCs fed with a mixture of phenanthrene and benzene under various operating conditions - temperature, substrate concentration, addition of surfactants and cathodic electron acceptor type – was investigated. The interaction …

Determining the impact of a multiliteracies workshop on TPACK knowledge of elementary preservice teachers
… Multiliteracies Workshop Model (MWM) to a literacy block methods experience and measured the changes in elementary/early childhood and elementary/collaborative preservice teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) learning. The study gathered information on the …

The Effect of Injury Severity on Behavioral Tasks Used for the Assessment of Cognitive Functioning Following Traumatic Brain Injury
… recognition (NOR) task, Morris water maze (MWM), and passive avoidance (PA) task. Four days prior to injury, Dig rats were trained to dig in unscented sand and MWM rats were trained to locate a hidden platform positioned in the northeast quadrant of the MWM. Following training, bilateral …

The Effect and Chronic Acute Pre-Treatment with Methylphenidate on Recovery of Cognitive Function Following Experimental Traumatic Brain Injury In Rats
… improved cognitive outcome as measured by the MWM. The MPH + injury group reached sham-injury levels on days 4 and 5 in the MWM.

The effect of exercise on spatial learning and hippocampal proteins in maternally separated adult rats
… 2 and 3 were trained in the Morris Water Maze (MWM) 1 and 15 days post-exercise, respectively. Consistent with our previous findings, pERK was increased in non-separated-exercised rats post-exercise. MKP-1, the regulator of pERK, was also increased in the non-separated-exercised group. BDNF was …

Effects of Trypanosoma brucei brucei on spatial learning and memory
… the impact of behavioural Morris water maze (MWM) training test on immune cytokine levels in the brain with or without infection, ii) investigate the impact of Trypanosoma brucei brucei infection on spatial learning and memory, also, finally iii) evaluate infection severity with or without the …

The development of a novel composite score to characterize effect size of behavior and histopathology changes after a repetitive mild traumatic brain injury
… three statistical methods. The score revealed MWM and EPM as the most potent behavioral tests. The Open Field and Rotarod test had a small impact on the outcome, but only in one of the three statistical models assessed. Thus, to effectively analyze treatment efficiencies, injury severity and …

COGNITIVE TRAINING AND FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY IN AN AGED MODEL OF TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY
… for cognitive ability on the Morris Water Maze (MWM) task prior to cortical contusion injury. Based on this evaluation, animals were then placed into an injury condition (cortical injury over the hippocampus or sham-injury) and cognitive training manipulation (cognitive training in the Dig task …

3,4-Diaminopyridin evozierte Freisetzung von Neurotransmittern aus Hirnschnitten von Ratten
… zwischen den Leistungen alter Ratten im MWM und der Freisetzung von 5-HT, NA und ACh in Hippocampus und Kortex bei diesen Tieren war der zweite Teil dieser Arbeit. <br> Im dritten Abschnitt befassten wir uns mit dem Nachweis von 5-HT1A-Rezeptoren im Hippocampus von Ratten, die nach einer …

A Behavioural, Molecular and Lesion Examination of Hippocampal Contributions to Morris Water Maze Acquisition
The Morris water maze (MWM) is a widely known, simple and effective task in the examination of spatial learning and memory. Successful acquisition of the task is thought to rely on retained representations of allocentric spatial relations, whereby animals learn to associate the location of a hidden …

Environmental- and Ethanol-Induced Effects on Reference and Short-Term Memory in the Rat
… arm water maze (RAWM) and Morris water maze (MWM). Sprague-Dawley rats (N=18) were exposed to either EE or isolation for 4 hours/day for 4 weeks prior to and during the experiments. Animals were first trained and tested with non-spatial cues located at the entrance of the maze alleys in the …

Treatment of azo dyes in industrial wastewater using microbial fuel cells
… in two-chamber MFCs. Power densities up-to 37 mWm-2 were observed in the two-chamber MFC system during AO-7 decolourisation. Co-metabolic reductive degradation of azo dye mixtures using dye acclimated mixed microbial populations under industrially relevant conditions (high temperatures and …

Role Of The α1A-Adrenergic Receptor In Synaptic Plasticity, Cognition & Neurogenesis
… object recognition (NOR), Morris water maze (MWM), and open field (OF). No difference was found in NOR and OF. MWM revealed that CRZ-treated mice were protected from Ara-C-induced learning and memory impairments, and surgery-induced learning impairments. </p> <p>We observed that Ara-C …
