Parallel arrays of microtubles formed in electric and magnetic fields

Abstract

The influence of electric and magnetic fields on microtubule assembly in vitro was studied. Both types of field caused alignment of microtubules in parallel arrays, as demonstrated by electron micrographs. These findings suggest a possible role of microtubules in the biological effects of exogenous as well as endogenous fields.

Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Vassilev et al. observed alignment of MTs in parallel arrays due to the application of electric fields with intensities of 0.025 V/cm and of pulsed shape.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
