What's the difference between canicular and sirius?
Canicular
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to, or measured, by the rising of the Dog Star.
Example Sentences:
(1) Those platelet characteristics most consistently reported to be defective include a decrease in the platelet content of serotonin and adenine nucleotides, decreased platelet density, an abnormal ultrastructure characterized by paucity of granules and hypertrophy of the surface connecting canicular system, an altered membrane glycoprotein profile that includes reduced levels of GPIb, and reduced lipoxygenase activity and aggregation response with epinephrine.
(2) A canicular system opening into the water-expulsion vesicle contains tubules about 600 A in diameter that are lined with a filamentous material.
(3) Structural and functional subdivision of the hepatocyte into a sinusoidal (vascular) zone, a lateral zone and a peri-canicular zone (adjacent to the bile canaliculi) highlights certain peculiarities of the vascular hepatocyte pole.
(4) Since in the stage of anuria the Na+ in urine fails to reach the macula densa cell canicularly, the theory is advanced that only the intracellular sodium in the macula densa cell is responsible for the regulation of the position of the vas deferens.
(5) Vesicles derived from the canicular domain of the plasma membrane of hepatocytes (CMV) from control and TR- rats were used to characterize the transport process for 35S-labeled bromosulphthalein and 35S-labeled bromosulphthalein glutathione, which represent nonbile acid organic anions.
(6) We postulate that this decrease in PA-IgG is caused by the release of plasma IgG entrapped by the surface-connected canicular system of the platelet, when the platelets swell during storage in EDTA or fixation with PFA.
(7) In normal resting platelets, GPIIb-IIIa was observed on the plasmatic side of the plasma membrane, the open canicular system (OCS) membranes, and along the internal face of the alpha-granule membrane.
Sirius
Definition:
(n.) The Dog Star. See Dog Star.
Example Sentences:
(1) Portal hypertension correlated with the degree of architectural distortion of the liver, as suggested by a direct correlation between hepatic venous pressure gradient and the area of reticulin collapse, evaluated by means of a morphometric analysis on Sirius red stained liver slides (r = 0.43, p less than 0.05).
(2) The high reproducibility with Sirius stain is most probably due to the high volume fractions of positively stained material after this stain, not to low interobserver variation.
(3) Green birefringence with Congo or Sirius red was specific but not completely sensitive.
(4) Biopsies of the liver were taken monthly and the fibrosis was quantitated morphometrically using the sirius red polarization method of collagen visualization by light microscopy.
(5) Previously described advantages of Sirius red as an amyloid dye were confirmed, as well as its disadvantage of lack of ultraviolet fluorescence.
(6) Following a previously described procedure, we deparaffinized tissue sections and stained them with the collagen-specific dye Sirius red.
(7) For the detection of amyloid the Sirius red staining technique was used.
(8) A Sirius spokeswoman said Bannon hosted the show live from Washington DC or New York.
(9) We will discuss that [where United go next] with him.” Wayne Rooney said that the fan base in America was growing, when speaking on Sirius FM.
(10) The sirius red polarization method is useful to visualize the organization of connective tissues and not to identify the molecular nature of their fibrous polymers.
(11) In addition to conventional staining procedures including HE, PAS, and Sirius stain, further tools were employed to extend the array of determined characteristics.
(12) The collagenous structures present in tissue sections obtained from the Egyptian mummy studied took on a deeply red colour when stained in the Picrosirius solution indicating that, as well as in the fresh controls, the basic groups in the collagen molecules were available for reacting with the strongly acidic dye Sirius Red.
(13) The results indicate that Sirius red is a reliable histochemical stain that can be used to quantitatively demonstrate the various degrees of fibrosis in liver biopsies.
(14) These membranes were colored selectively also by the picro-Sirius Red F3BA method for collagens; fungi in tissues from patients with candidiasis remained unstained.
(15) The histological method applied included haematoxylin-eosin and Sirius red staining for morphometric quantification of the goblet cells, the thickness of the connective tissue layer, the area fractions of blood vessels, inflammatory cells, fibroblasts and collagen fibres.
(16) The distribution of collagenous components was examined in the same tissues by means of the Sirius red F3BA method.
(17) Treatment with sodium hydroxide solution prevents staining of secondary amyloid with Sirius red.
(18) Under the deal Rinehart will purchase $50m of Sirius shares and pay $250m for a 5% royalty stream on the first 13m tonnes of fertiliser produced by the mine annually, and the right to purchase up to 20,000 tonnes of product each year for use on her expanding Australian agricultural holdings.
(19) The stains applied were H & E, PAS, Prussian blue, Elastica van Gieson, Trichrom (Masson-Goldner), Gomori's silver methenamine and Picro-Sirius polarization (modified).
(20) The mine, which sits on protected moorland overlooking Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay, aims to produce up to 20m tonnes a year of a potassium-rich mineral called polyhalite, a type of potash fertiliser described by Sirius as a “fertiliser of the future”.
