- A gas evolution reaction is a chemical process that produces a gas, such as oxygen or carbon dioxide. In the following examples, an acid reacts with a carbonate, producing salt, carbon dioxide, and water, respectively. Nitric acid reacts with sodium carbonate to form sodium nitrate, carbon dioxide, and water:

- Pertussis, or whooping cough, is a highly contagious disease involving the respiratory tract. It is caused by a bacterium, Bordetella pertussis, which is found in the mouth, nose and throat of an infected person.ertussis can occur at any age. Severe illness is more common in young children that have not been immunized. Adults with pertussis have milder symptoms. A diagnosis of pertussis should be considered for adults with persistent cough, to ensure they do not pass on the infection.

Is It a Cold or Is It Whooping Cough? Warning Signs of Whooping Cough. Pertussis starts with cold-like symptoms – a runny nose, mild cough and perhaps a low fever. After one or two weeks, however, the disease can cause so much inflammation in the airways that a child has violent and rapid coughing fits, called paroxysms.

Pertussis toxin One difference between the different species of Bordetella is that B. pertussis produces PT and the other species do not. Bordetella parapertussis shows the most similarity to B. pertussis and was therefore used for research determining the role of PT in causing the typical symptoms of whooping cough.he appearance of pertussis is quite recent, compared with other epidemic infectious diseases. The earliest mention of pertussis, or whooping cough, is of an outbreak in Paris in 1414. This was published in Moulton’s The Mirror of Health, in 1640.

Overview By Mayo Clinic Staff. Whooping cough (pertussis) is a highly contagious respiratory tract infection. In many people, it's marked by a severe hacking cough followed by a high-pitched intake of breath that sounds like whoop..

St. Vitusâs Dance In 1779, some 90 years after Sydenham’s death, a paper describing a treatment for St. Vitus’s Dance, by Anthony Fothergill, was published in the Philosophical Transactions. In the paper, entitled An Account of a Cure of the St. Vitus’s Dance by Electricity, Fothergill describes the symptoms presented by the patient: Ann Agutter, a girl of ten years of age, of a pale, emaciated habit, was admitted an out-patient at the Northampton Hospital on the 6th of June last.

- T1R1+3 is prominently expressed in fungiform taste buds, which are innervated by chorda tympani fibres. Therefore, we stimulated mouse fungiform papillae at the front of the tongue with various amino acids in the presence or absence of IMP, and recorded tastant-induced spikes from the chorda tympani nerve.As expected, nerve responses to l-amino acids were significantly enhanced by IMP (Fig. 3).herefore, we stimulated mouse fungiform papillae at the front of the tongue with various amino acids in the presence or absence of IMP, and recorded tastant-induced spikes from the chorda tympani nerve.

Triad (anatomy) Triads form the anatomical basis of excitation-contraction coupling, whereby a stimulus excites the muscle and causes it to contract. A stimulus, in the form of positively charged current, is transmitted from the neuromuscular junction down the length of the T tubules, activating dihydropyridine receptors (DHPRs).This property holds because T tubules run perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the muscle fiber.) In mammals, triads are typically located at the A-I junction; that is, the junction between the A and I bands of the sarcomere, which is the smallest unit of a muscle fiber.

In the 1990s, on a visit to Concord, Massachusetts, I was struck by how different the Tufted Titmice sounded from the ones I was used to in New Jersey.n one the variations I hear, it sounds to me like they are saying sugar feet in a short-short-long rhythm. Reply. John Harvey says. On a snowy January 18th morning, I just heard my first “peter-peter-peter-peter” call of a Tufted Titmouse.

- Pertussis, also known as whooping cough or 100-day cough, is a highly contagious bacterial disease.Initially, symptoms are usually similar to those of the common cold with a runny nose, fever, and mild cough.his is then followed by weeks of severe coughing fits. Following a fit of coughing, a high-pitched whoop sound or gasp may occur as the person breathes in. The coughing may last for 10 or more weeks, hence the phrase 100-day cough.

- One of the first neurophysiological examinations of the corpus callosum was made a few years after Myers' experiments by David Whitteridge, then in Edinburgh. Whitteridge realized that for a band of nerve fibers to join homologous, mirror-symmetric parts of area 17 made no sense.

tactile fremitus tactile fremitus, a tremulous vibration of the chest wall during speaking that is palpable on physical examination. Tactile fremitus may be decreased or absent when vibrations from the larynx to the chest surface are impeded by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, obstruction, pleural effusion, or pneumothorax.actile fremitus may be decreased or absent when vibrations from the larynx to the chest surface are impeded by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, obstruction, pleural effusion, or pneumothorax.

8 Signs that Your Child Has Whooping Cough 1. Cold-Like Symptoms. The earliest sign of whooping cough begins approximately 10 days following contamination with typical cold-like symptoms—including sneezing, watery eyes, fatigue, muscle stiffness, and loss of appetite. Your child could experience other cold symptoms, like a mild fever and mild cough as well. The thick mucus that develops from whooping cough can make it difficult to eat and drink, so your child may seem uninterested in meal time.

- Amplitudes are low for the wrist and elbow stimulus sites at 4.7 mV (normal >5 mV), but amplitudes are 31% higher distal to the carpal tunnel (at the palm). This discrepancy may represent conduction block (neurapraxia) at the level of the carpal tunnel or coactivation of the ulnar branch to adductor pollicis.

Tinnitus â Pulsatile Tinnitus. Pulsatile tinnitus fluctuates synchronously with the cardiac cycle and is usually subjective but occasionally objective. Modulation of sound, with each heartbeat, may be due to turbulent flow within the vascular structures near the hearing apparatus. Among the more common causes is a venous hum.

- B. pertussis and B. parapertussis are very similar species. Both species cause pertussis (whooping cough) in humans and are separated merely by the toxins they release during infection. B. parapertussis releases toxins that seem to cause a milder form of pertussis (whooping cough).B. bronchiseptica causes respiratory disease in various mammals and occasionally in humans.. pertussis colonize the cilia of the mammalian respiratory epithelium. The epithelium is a tissue composed of a layer of cells. The main purpose of the respiratory epithelium is to moisten and protect the airways.
