There are more than 25 000 fish species occurring in widely diverse forms and in every aquatic habitat. While the optic tectum is present in all species, it is developed to different extents. Our knowledge of tectal function derives almost entirely from a handful of teleost species, mainly ...
Four supplementally fed Anolis cristatellus in a natural population did not deviate in testis size from a control group (n = 11: Licht 1974). However, in the males that were supplementally fed there was a perfect correlation between gain in body mass and testis mass (Licht 1974, Table II...
In addition, the proteomic composition of the oviduct fluid greatly varies according to the systemic and topical concentrations of estradiol and progesterone across the cycle in mammalian females [9,10,11]. Although poorly explored, there is growing evidence that the mammalian oviduct is also highly...
desire refers to feelings in humans (as well as other animals) that it would be pleasurable or stimulating to have sexual intercourse (or engage in other sex-related activities) with another specimen, usually of the opposite sex, of the same species in the...
Previous studies have demonstrated that the supraphysiological E2 level is negatively correlated with birthweight. However, the cut-off value of E2 level that significantly affects birthweight is unknown, and there is no definite conclusion regarding thi

There are insufficient data in adult patients with CLcr 10 mL/min or less or in patients on dialysis or in pediatric patients with a similar degree of renal impairment (based on age-appropriate assessment of renal function) to make PREVYMIS dosing recommendations. In adult patients with CLcr...
During late embryogeny, there is a switch from pattern formation to storage product accumulation. In conifers, the sequence of embryo development can also be described by three phases: proembryogeny, early embryogeny, and late embryogeny [8]. Proembryogeny begins when the zygote undergoes ...
The concentration of E2 was measured by an automated quantitative immunoassay (ADVIA Centaur Enhanced Estradiol Test; Siemens Medical Solutions Diagnostics) with a limit of detection of 11.8 pg/mL. Intraobserver and interobserver coefficients of variation for a mean concentration of 1,619 pg/mL were...
Benfluralin has been classified as a dermal sensitizer in guinea pigs. However, there are no confirmed human cases of allergic contact dermatitis to benfluralin. There is a case report of a 61-year-old man with allergic contact dermatitis caused by exposure to multiple pesticides. The patient...
