The standard assay for monitoring anticoagulation during extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is the activated clotting time (ACT) test, with celite, kaolin, and glass beads being the most commonly used activators to initiate contact activation

Identification of Substrates for Adenosine Deaminases That Act on RNA

Adenosine deaminases that acts on RNA (ADARs) are RNA-editing enzymes that convert adenosine to inosine in double-stranded RNA. This chapter provides a detailed protocol for identifying inosine-containing RNAs. Candidate ADAR substrates

消化管 alimentary canal， alimentary tr-act，digestive tract

　　消化管 alimentary canal， alimentary tr-act， digestive tract 亦称肠管。指从口到肛门的食物通道。但是，扁形动物的消化管没有肛门的分化，而终止于盲囊，食物的残渣经口排出体外。鱼类，由于有鳃裂，消化管在咽部与外界相通。两栖类以上的动物，食管在咽部与呼吸器官（鼻腔、气管）相连接。此外，哺乳类以外的动物，它们的肠末端开口于总排泄腔，而哺乳动物由于形成了会阴部，生殖管和输尿管的开口与消化管分开，消化管通过肛门与外界相通。脊椎动物消化管的主要
