(n.) A genus of small rodents, including the common mouse and rat.
Example Sentences:
(1) The interactions of 3 classical alpha-adrenergic antihypertensives of prevalently central type (St 155 or clonidine St 600; BR 750 or guanabenz) with the narcotic effects of pentobarbital have been investigated in the Mus musculus.
(2) Mus norvegicus albicus, by interrupting a free-running rhythm with light signals of short duration.
(3) A 300 mus decay component of ESR Signal I (P-700+) in chloroplasts is observed following a 10 mus actinic xenon flash.
(4) Phasic-tonic MUs exhibited a phasic burst of activity during the torque ramp which exceeded the firing rate during the static hold period.
(5) The quantum yield of noncyclic photophosphorylation in chloroplasts excited by a series of 8 mus flashes of the saturating intensity displays a two-fold decrease when the flash-frequency is reduced from about 1.1 to about 0.8 s-1, whereas further decrease of flash frequency does not affect the average ATP yield per flash.
(6) Some populations of geographical isolates show V kappa 21, V kappa 19, and C kappa contexts similar to inbred mice while more distantly related species within the genus Mus and laboratory rats show no apparent similarity in context to inbred strains.
(7) Homologous genes have been isolated and sequenced from Mus pahari, a genetically and geographically isolated species believed to be the oldest living representative of the genus.
(8) The endogenous and exogenous stages of a species of murine Eimeria were examined and compared with descriptions of other species isolated from Mus musculus.
(9) To investigate the evolutionary origins of these inversions and the possibility of additional inversions, interspecific crosses were performed between Mus spretus or Mus abbotti and laboratory strains of Mus domesticus that carried wild-type and t haplotypes forms of chromosome 17.
(10) Analysis of different Mus subspecies indicates that TLev1 integrated into a common ancestor of the species Mus musculus.
(11) The modes of excitation included a single picosecond pulse, sequences of picosecond pulses (4, 22, and 300 pulses spaced 5 ns apart) and a single nonmode-locked 2-mus pulse (MP mode).
(12) In addition, activation of GABA-A receptors by muscimol (MUS) stimulated basal LHRH secretion.
(13) In principle, multiply mutant mus strains might then serve as sensitive in vivo indicators of a wide range of mutagens and genotoxic carcinogens.
(14) Single MUs were recorded from the strip and from the contralateral diaphragm.
(15) These MUs were characterized by their axonal conduction velocities (CVs) and relative onset times (defined as the time after onset of phrenic nerve activity until the MU began discharging divided by the duration of inspiration).
(16) Chiggers were absent on Mus platythrix from a habitat about 40 meters away from the B. bengalensis and S. murinus collection sites.
(17) An identical order of hypermutability with similar indices is obtained for the mus(2)201 mutants: MMS(7.3) greater than MNU (5.4) greater than EMS(2.0) greater than ENU(1.1).
(18) When MUs were not fired by the stimulus, they were nevertheless inhibited from firing spontaneously.
(19) DNA sequence comparison of the Tcp-1 genes suggests that the t haplotype chromosome arose within the genus Mus more than one million years ago.
(20) By stimulating the ulnar nerve against the background of firing MUs an H-reflex was elicited.
