High frequency stimulation causes an increase in release called post tetanic potentiation Kandel 2003 . This presynaptic event is caused by calcium influx . Calcium protein interactions then produce a change in Synaptic vesicle vesicle exocytosis . Tetanic stimulation is used to detect a non depolarizing block or a depolarizing block on the neuromuscular junction. Lower elicitations of tetanic stimulation in aged muscles were shown to be caused by lower levels of anaerobic energy provision in skeletal muscles Campbell, Marsh, Spriet, 1991 .

    During the activation of lymphocyte s, co stimulation is often crucial to the development of an effective immune system immune response . Co stimulation is required in addition to the antigen specific signal from their antigen receptors. ref name Janeway5 Janeway CA, Travers P, Walport M, Shlomchik M 2001 . Immunobiology 5 The Immune System in Health and Disease, 5th ed. New York Garland Pub., ISBN 081533642X ref Co stimulation T cells require T cells require two signals to become fully activated. A first signal, which is antigen specific, is provided through the T cell receptor which interacts with peptide Major histocompatibility complex MHC molecules on the membrane of antigen presenting cells APC . A second signal, the co stimulatory signal, is antigen nonspecific and is provided by the interaction between co stimulatory molecules expressed on the membrane of APC and the T cell. One of the best characterized costimulatory molecules expressed by T cells is CD28 , which interacts with CD80 B7.1 and CD86 B7.2 on the membrane of APC. Another costimulatory receptor expressed by T cells is CD278 ICOS I nducible Cos timulator , which interacts with ICOS L. T cell co stimulation is necessary for T cell proliferation, differentiation and survival. Activation of T cells without co stimulation may lead to T cell anergy , T cell deletion or the development of immune tolerance .

Cleaning the formation The assortment of Drilling mud chemicals pumped down the well during drilling and Completion oil and gas wells completion can often cause damage to the surrounding formation by entering the Oil reservoir reservoir rock and blocking the pore throats the channels in the rock throughout which the reservoir fluids flow . Similarly, the act of perforation oil well perforating can have a similar effect by jetting debris into the perforation channels. Both these situations reduce the permeability in the near well bore area and so reduce the flow of fluids into the well bore. A simple and cheap solution is to pump chemicals from surface into the well to dissolve the offending material. Once dissolved, permeability should be restored and the reservoir fluids will flow into the well bore, cleaning up what is left of the damaging material. After initial completion, it is common to use concentrated formic acid to clean up any mud and skin damage. In this situation, the process is called acidizing. In more serious ... method to achieve more stimulation is by carrying out a hydraulic fracture treatment through the perforations ... to generate a high speed gas flow, a process called propellant stimulation.

  1. Intermittent photic stimulation

    In medicine, Intermittent Photic Stimulation , or IPS , is a form of visual stimulation used in conjunction with EEG electroencephalography to investigate anomalous brain activity triggered by specific visual stimuli, such as flashing lights or patterns. IPS and EEGs are often used to diagnose conditions such as photosensitive epilepsy . The field is relatively new and the details of use of IPS have not been widely standardized. IPS is often used in conjunction with other controllable generators of visual stimuli, such as low level visual stimulation LLVS . Photic stimulation may also be used to elicit myoclonus, especially cortical reflex myoclonus when present in photo sensitive forms. IPS may be used to stimulate the visual system for patients with amblyopia . This system uses a visual stimulus that is usually red in color with a frequency of about 4 Hz to stimulate the neural pathway between the retina and the visual cortex. The objective is to improve the visual acuity of an amblyopic lazy eye.
