Example sentences for: spikes

How can you use “spikes” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Collection of a 24-h composite sample, however, may dilute toxicity spikes, and average the quality of the effluent over the sampling period.

  • The γ frequency oscillations (30-100 Hz) are characteristic of responses to sensory input measured by cortical EEG [ 9 ] . In the hippocampal slice preparation, γ oscillations can be evoked by brief, high frequency tetanic stimuli to region CA1 [ 10 11 12 13 ] . The extracellular field potential response during these oscillations takes the form of a train of population spikes in stratum pyramidal at γ and β (15-30 Hz) frequencies [ 14 ] . Intracellular recordings during γ oscillations induced by tetanic stimulation reveal a slow membrane depolarization in conjunction with GABA A receptor-mediated inhibitory postsynaptic potentials [ 11 15 ] . This synaptic inhibition-based γ activity entrains action potential generation in pyramidal neurons, leading to the population spikes at γ band frequencies.

  • Finally, both post-tetanic γ oscillations and hyperthermic epileptiform-like population spikes were completely blocked by a GABA A receptor antagonist, BMI.

  • If the effluent quality varies considerably with time, which can occur where holding times are short, grab samples may seem preferable because of the ease of collection and the potential of observing peaks (spikes) in toxicity.

  • Intercostal muscle afferents studied by Critchlow & Von Euler [ 14 ] were shown to discharge at rates of 29 - 74 spikes/sec during the inspiratory phase, but were not characterized as being either 1° or 2° muscle spindles.
