Questions related to Morphology
Both Europeans and Yacuruna arrived in Peru via water, are comparatively hairier than indigenous Peruvians. Both Europeans and Yacuruna also have harmed the Incans.
It is known that patients with desminopathy often die from pneumonia. Have pathomorphological studies of the lungs been performed in patients with desminopathy?
It is known that in the early stages of desminopathy the muscles most often affected are: Semitendinosus, Gracilis and Sartorius. What is the reason for the damage to these particular muscles?
Who agrees both my book and my short film might help morphology? How? Why?
My Book:
My Short Film:
Several morphological characteristics (adaptative or not) could be associated with the process of adaptation to a specific environment or microhabitat. For example, several troglobization processes (species with all the live cycle exclusively in caves) in non-related lineages are associated with the same morphological changes, such as anophtalmy, loss of pigmentation, appendage elongation, etc.
My question is: do there exist morphological changes (and which ones) in arthropods associated with the adaptation to live in a canopy? (and a bibliographic reference if possible).
Thank you very much!
this is what they say on etymoline.com:
"late 14c., auctorisen, autorisen, "give formal approval or sanction to," also "confirm as authentic or true; regard (a book) as correct or trustworthy," from Old French autoriser, auctoriser "authorize, give authority to" (12c.) and directly from Medieval Latin auctorizare, from auctor (see author (n.))."
Good day. I am responsible for the inclusion of the journal Reports of Morphology in the Web of Science and Scopus scientometric databases. A month ago, the journal received approval for inclusion in Scopus (Web of Science is in the third stage of verification. Pub Med is in the final stages of inspection). Our articles are already indexed (proof):
https://www.scopus.com/results/results.uri?sort=plf-f&src=s&sid=206c12238257ba306461a5fb328e651c&sot=a&sdt=a&sl=15&s=ISSN%281818-1295%29&origin=searchhistory&txGid=c07e5a470a1fc513c5 dd5f20afbbcf32&sessionSearchId=206c12238257ba306461a5fb328e651c&limit=10
I am also currently involved in promoting the journal to the international scientific community.
The journal is aimed specifically at morphology: forensic medicine (with morphology), pathological anatomy, normal anatomy, normal histology, cytology, embryology.
The cost of publication is 6 dollars per page.
The journal is published 4 times a year, with 10 publications in each issue.
Articles are reviewed - that's why adequate quality photos, adequate list of references, correspondence to the topic of the journal, etc. are necessary.
Review articles or case reports are not accepted.
We will be glad for your publications.

I'm trying to figure out the colony morphology characteristics that one should be skeptical of when deciding whether two colony types on the same plate represent morphologic variations of a single genetic organism or two distinct genotypes when mixed culture is a possibility.
I know that colony size is one, as "Relative colony size is driven by the location of adjacent competitors" *
Another one is colony color, as shown in the figures.
What about other characteristics: Form, margin, elevation, etc?

Why is MXene morphology always in nanosheets? Can it be spherical, Core-shell, cubic or needle-shaped?
Is there a special reason, why the term "superficial cervical ansa" (Ansa cervicalis superficialis) was removed from official anatomical terminology?
When staining with hematoxylin and eosin of a muscle biopsy from a patient with T341P desminopathy, we observe accumulations of inclusions similar to nuclei (arrows in figures 1 and 2, x280). And outside of these accumulations - adipose tissue, which used to be muscle tissue. There are no such massive accumulations of inclusions in adjacent muscle fibers. We assume that clusters of inclusions are not nuclei? Figure 2 is the inverted figure 1.

Hello,
I saw there is two different morphologies in SEM images of PCN-224, including cubic and spherical. I would appreciate if someone could explain this issue to me.
Hello,
I am looking if anyone knows about any chemical solution that could function as an alternative way (not lactophenol cotton blue, chlorazol black...) to stain the chitin of internal sclerotized genitalia and other structures of arthropods.
Additionally, does anyone have a digital version (or just scaned) of Notes on Microscopical technique for Zoologists by C.F.A. Pantin, 1946. Or any other book or resource that describes protocols for chitin staining?
Regards,
Pedro
Hi to everyone, I'm trying to obtain information about the morphology of small cylinders of GelMA. As they were too thick we cut them prior to standard treatment with Pt/pd coating required for SEM imaging. However, this process seems to alter the hydrogel structure leading to no significant data. Can GelMA films work better? We want to try heat-drying the samples instead of freeze-drying them but my concern is creating a temperature gradient that can alter the porosity. Has anyone ever tried this method?
I have prepared thin films with varying power using RF magnetron sputtering and with increasing power, I observed electrical conductivty improved. Morphological studies reveal increae in size of the crystals. How crystal size show impact on electrical conductivity.. Ant theory to explain this? can anyone help me this?
I have prepared three tungsten disulfide sample powders using three different solvents and keeping all other parameters same. Each of the sample shows different morphology like, rod and sheets. How the solvent effects on the morphology of samples? Give your valuable opinions
Good day,
I am not a chemist, but a student studying mechanical engineering. I would like to know more about the morphology and the chain structure of PA6/66 Copolymer for the purpose of my thesis. After a long search on the internet, I couldn't find enough information about the morphology (macroscopic structure) and the chain structure of the PA6/66 Copolymer. I could only find out information about the general morphology of nylon fibers, which is a three-phase model with microfibrillar and inter-microfibrillar regions. I would be very grateful if anyone could provide me with the information or point me in the right direction.
Thank you in advance.
Hi there,
Myself and some collaborators were hoping to build a cell segmentation and morphology analysis tool using machine learning. I don't suppose any of you would be willing to share any images of cells from routine cell culture (or from experiments either works). Would obviously acknowledge you in the final publication should you wish to be.
Thanks!
In the case of Phylogeny, we consider all the taxa as OTU. So, how can we interpret the various rank below species level? Or Just morphological data can provide distinction below species rank?
A lot of the research papers that I've read are about the dependence of the morphology formation of polyaniline to the synthesis conditions but only found one paper that gives the idea that the morphology formation is independent of the application form. I would like to ask how strongly valid is the latter statement and what some more papers can support it.
Thank you in advance!
I am trying to applying two and three element windkessel model as outlet boundary condition but problem in finding the values for Rp, C and Rd for different morphological data (geometrical dimensions).
I also want to apply the outlet model in COMSOL.
suggest what could I do for solving my problem.
In pathological report we often see the sentence: Clinical correlation is recommended.
Can experts let me know whether plant classifications based only on molecular studies is enough to arrive at taxonomic conclusions (like segregation of a new genus, etc) or they should be supported by morphological expressions and their clear cut differences as well?
If I have prepared different carbon catalysts by varying pyrolysis temperatures, what will be their effect on morphology or metal content.
And when used for HER and OER what will be its effect.
Hello, I am trying to find a dataset of canonical suffix forms for Parts of speech tags. For example, ed->VBD (past tense), ing-> VBG. Is there any available dataset like this?
Thanks!
I am trying to coat the standard triple-cation perovskite on top of PTAA using the anti-solvent technique. However, in order to get consistent films, I wanted to use an electronic pipette for dispensing the anti-solvent to control the speed of anti-solvent. When I dripped the anti-solvent the Perovskite film appeared to be full of cracks. I tried to change the amount of anti-solvent (from 90ul to 200ul ) but still, the problem persists. I tried different anti-solvents like CB, Anisole, and Ethyl acetate. In all the cases I see the consistent result. I coated the perovskite with a normal pipette and there are very little cracks. I don't understand what might be the issue.
I can not describe morphology of some AMF spores isolated from soil sample. Permanent slides in PVLG+Melzer, x600, light microscopy and phase-contrast microscopy. Pink stained spherical structures have multiple layers and rigid outer layer. Do they look like spores inside sporangium? May these structures be endoparasites or plant pollen?
I perform whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from neurons in acute brain slices and fill the neurons with biocytin for later reconstruction. To preserve morphology, I am used to retracting the pipette slowly to allow for the membrane to reseal.
Lately however, I’ve been having the issue that the cell nuclei stick to the pipette and come along upon retracting, in effect leaving me with an unintended nucleated patch, which often destroys cell morphology. It seems the longer the recording lasts, the greater the likelihood of this occurring. I’ve been playing around with the osmolarity of my (intracellular) solutions without much luck so far. Does anyone have some thoughts on what could cause this? I’m a bit short on ideas and would much appreciate your comments.
Although the idea of beauty (of and in cities) has always been debated and discussed in the literature, today it seems to remain an incredible vast concept (hardly categorized) on which is difficult to agree upon. When a city or part of it becomes beautiful? What makes it so? I know this topic can sound a bit out of date or inappropriate in this time of global emergency, yet I believe beauty is still one of the greatest hopes for our civil societies.
Do you have any good recommendation of texts dealing directly with this issue?
I have not seen this type of bacteria morphology before. I am wondering what it might be and how to classify it. Is it even bacteria? Could it be fungi?
Is chlorophyll content measured using SPAD meter is a physiological trait?
I have been growing E. coli host in SM6 medium for fermentation. During the run, I did microscopy and found long filamentous rods, which are Gram negative. I have started searching literature for morphological changes in E. coli due to stress. The antibiotic marker I use is tetracycline.
I'd really appreciate some help here...
Hi, I am looking for some information about Vorticella morphology. In some Vorticellas I found lot of granules I think it is a reserve granules but I am not sure. Some publications called they as " refractile reserve granules" - what does it mean? What does they large numer mean? Also why are they iridescent yellow sometimes?
I have a data set of spontaneous speech in Romanesco (Italian dialect spoken in Rome), which I need to gloss morphologically.
These are the turns in question (but there are other similar instances):

A few, previously (in the 1990s) morphologically identified Chlamydomonas strains turned to be Scenedesmus and Chlorella strains after my phylogenetic analysis. Morphology was not the scope of my submitted paper. It is only about identifying them phylogenetically, because this was never applied to the strain collection before.
In my manuscript I stated that the strains in question must have been misidentified morphologically. According to the reviewer, it is hard to imagine that one would misidentify a coccoid as a flagellate. Then the reviewer referred to the fact that Chlorella/Scenedesmus species may contaminated the original isolate of Chlamydomonad, and later predominated in the culture. As it is almost impossible to prove, the reviewer asks to discuss the topic in the resubmitted manuscript.
Additionally, the reviewer says that the original Chlamydomonads may survive in the culture as a minority, and that the authors should check if the strains in question include Chlamydomonad.
This is where I am asking for your advice.
I would like to know that what would be the most cost/time-saving and still scientific way to check the Chlamydomonas presence?
If I only have light microscopy, how long and to what extent should I screen the strains to conclude reasonably that they are no longer Chlamydomonas?
I mean, is that enough if I state that I did not find Chlamydomonas minority after microscopy or are there any other more serious ways in the scientific sense to state that?
What type of answers would you accept if you were my reviewer? : )
Could you also provide references to papers related to the ‘strain contamination topic’?
Thank you

Which method would be used to attain inverse kinematic equations in a complex morphology for a combination of joints in a robot manipulator?
Hello,
I am dealing with linear measurements of limb bones, and I already have run a PCA to explore the dataset. If I want to extrapolate an ontogenetic growth trajectory, what is the best approach?
Thanks
I have a difficult problem with the technical term “reduplication” as the prefix “re-“ is a disturbing tautology and I think only “duplication” is enough for describing it as a morphological process (though, I do not know whether it is one of the morphological processes or a simple lexical item. What is it? This question was raised by Rajendra Singh). I will be obliged, if the linguist community would kindly allow me to use “duplication” instead of dubious “reduplication” in case of XX lexical items.
Secondly, within the domain of “duplication”, sometimes “onomatopoeia” has got the iconic status as if signifiers and signified are “fully” analogous. What’s about the “relative degree of arbitrariness” in case of onomatopoeia or any other so-called icons? May we need grammatological intervention in this case? I think, in case of onomatopoeia, the differAnce of degrees of arbitrariness is important.
I am so much concerned with this phenomenon as, when (re-) searching on Bangla, I was surprised to find a large corpus was generated at the end of 19th C and at the beginnings of the 20th C. and still the research on such process/item is going on with the deployment of different types of methodologies. Why were the members of the emerging civil society of a newly imagined state, viz. Bangla, so much concerned about duplication? Was it for the sake of showing something unique in the imagined speech community—something different from the supposed inheritance of the Old Indic language? Were the civil members of Bengali community trying to get out of genealogical fantasy and creating another imagiNATION? This is, of course, a question not related to micro-linguistics.
We can observe this for example on the abdomen of Hermetia illucens. Do you have any knowledge in this field or articles?
Whether the changes in the cytoplasm and nucleus are symmetrical or they differ ? Whether the morphological changes are dose dependent ? or species dependent ?
I synthesized some cadmium sulphoselenide crystal using hydro-thermal method with the starting materials of Na2S, CdSO4 and Se. Na2S was added into a solution which had CTAB dissolved previously, then Se powder was dissolved in the Na2S solution to form Na2S-Se solution. Then the prepared CdSO4 solution was added into the Na2S-Se solution by drop. The mixture was treated in polytetrafluoroethylene for 8h. CTAB was used as surface modifier, expecting to gain an even distributed spherical cadmium sulphoselenide crystals. But the morphology turned out to be less uniform, and without spherical morphology. Could someone give me some advice to improve the morphology of cadmium sulphoselenide?
id like to know the similarities and differences of using morphological data vs molecular data for compiling a data matrix and conducting a phylogenetic analysis
I think that morphology provides all the necessary data to define a species. DNA data is useless unless you don't know the exact species name.
I have a diglossic situation, in which the main different between L and H seems to be in the realm of grammar (also vocabulary, but less so). Can you recommend any specific literature on that, especially contemporary theories? I have already covered most of the general literature on diglossia.
I am looking for any information on the morphological structure of Avicennia germinans (Black mangrove) below ground root structure.
Does anyone see this morphology of the cells before? What kind of cells do they look like? liver cells, pancreatic cells or other kinds?
Might it be related to size and water filtration?
One of the main challenges facing nanotechnology is the scale-up of currently used synthesis methods so as to reduce costs of production in the large scale. The presence of mathematical models and correlations, which enable calculation of morphology/size/properties directly from synthesis methods, will be very important.
what are the reasons for a change in powder morphology in a pervoskite system (ABO3)...I replaced some amount of A(+1) with A(+2) after calcination, I have observed the change in morphology from cube like shaped to rod like shaped..what me the possible reason for change in morphology....(Image S1 is the material with A(+1) and S5 is the material with A(+2))
Trying to isolate MSC from mice/ rat bone marrow. Upto second passage cells are proliferating and in good morphology. When I am trying to expand the cells (second passage) cells are not attaching or they are dead. None of the culture conditions were changed fro first or second passage except the flask area (T25 to T75). Please give some advice for this problem.
I've been reading the article: "Biological identifications through DNA barcodes" (Hebert et al, 2003), in the introduction, they explain that morphological based identification has four significant limitations, I found some articles that confirm three of them, but I cannot find any articles about "Genetic Variation".
I need an article that talks about issues that genetic variation could cause in morphological identification.
If you suggest me such articles, I'll be very thankful.
Hello everyone, I want to grow thin film on FTO using hydrothermal but the medium is highly basic so FTO looses even its own stability and tore down into small pieces. Now my question ' is there any most stable substrate that could even stable in highly basic conditions? because my sample with specific morphology could be obtained hydrothermally in highly basic medium like 16M KOH solution. If anyone could give some suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thank you
- Moreover, as shown in Figure 7 (d), the morphologies of silica nanoparticles could be clearly seen, and the dispersion was remarkably uniform.

I would like to image differentiated Caco2 cells grown on a transwell and stained with fluorophore (ie Phalloidin -Alexa 488) without perturping the 3D morphology of the cells.
I have read that you can cut with a scalpel the filter and place it on a glass slide. I gess I should than add antifadding, but then? Should I add a coverslip? Will the coverslip not scratch out the apical surface of the CaCo2 cells?
Do you have a protocol to recommand? any suggestions are welcome
Current literature states that during apoptosis of microglial cells, the cell body can decrease in size, membrane blebbing can occur, and measures such as nuclear condensation, fragmentation can be observed.
I am wondering, during the apoptotic process (particularly early apoptosis) what the state of the microglial processes are in. Are any distinct morphology changes observed in contrast to non-apoptotic microglia? I have looked for some literature (hoping to find some cell reconstructions to answer this), however have not come across any or have missed it.
Any ideas?
Is there an index to calculate such trait variations in plants?

Hi, Is it possible to find a relationship between mitochondrial dna sequence and any morphological variations in human? for example the high or the shoulder width. I did look around but I did not find answer.
Thank you
We washed ZnO thin films with acetone. We use stream of N2 gas to dry the thin films and to remove some organic compounds from the reaction. Some organic compounds might still be present after.
During solidification, solidification structure can be changed by temperature gradient and velocity of liquidus isotherm at solid/liquid interface.
I have an idea about its morphological change by relationship between temperature gradient and velocity of liquidus isotherm.
However, I want to know that which factors can make slower or faster the velocity of liquidus isotherm (so called as solidification rate or growth rate) during solidification ?
Please let me know if someone have an idea for that.
Thanks a lot.
I believe that I have both species in different vermicomposters that I am using for practical classes of Environmental Biotechnology with my students. The colors are different between both species, but this probably is not a good feature. Apparently, E.fetida is light red and with more visible rings. The back part is yellowish. Are these features enough or I need more reliable characteristics such as clitellum position?
Hello,

After treating a compound to my cells, I noticed that cells died in a way I have never seen before (see the attached image - panel A). I don't think its apoptosis (apoptosis look like panel B). Basically, a single huge vesicle contains cell fragments. Any idea based on the morphological features? Thanks very much for your insights.
My question concerns with the field of spider taxonomy. It seems to be a neccessity (never observed anything to the contrary) to include descriptions of only mature specimens for a taxonomic publication on spiders. Sometimes, however, extremely rare specimens are encountered in the field for which mature specimens may not be found. My question is that is it acceptable to at least include those specimens in one's thesis work? Perhaps pertaining to a description of up to the genus level and not till the species level (as that requires the evaluation of genitalic morphology). Im particularly looking for a reply from thesis evaluators of the field. Thank you.
Dear Sandra,
When we talk about homophones; don't you think that we are talking semantics or phonetics rather than morphology or psycholinguistics?
Hello, in order to measure the dry mass concentration in the fermentation broth, It is well-known that we should draw the calibration curve correlating cell concentration with absorbance deviates from a linear correlation y=ax+b. However, the value of a and b is variable, depends on yeast morphology and nature and even the growth phase.In my case, I used commercial dry yeast after 6 hours of incubation to draw the following calibration curve where a=1.07 which represents a significant difference with other works where a was around 0.34. I have double-confirmed and got same results.Does my calibration curve seem correct?
can i find difference in morphology and biological properties between the same peptides but differ in stereochemistry ( L and D form) or it should be have the same properties?
I am working with modified KPC cell lines. When I revived my cells, most of the cells were already stressed.(probably they were stressed while making the stock itself). After 2 days of reviving also there are only few cells with good morphology. Rest of the cells are rounded and are stressed. I do not have more stocks of these cells. So is it possible to get rid of all stressed cells from this flask by giving media change everyday or so?
