Metagenomic analyses of gnotobiotic mice and monozygotic twins reveal the effects of eating a popular fermented milk product on their microbiomes. A Yogurt a Day… We all enjoy a tasty yogurt and… Expand
Sperm-oviduct interaction: induction of capacitation and preferential binding of uncapacitated spermatozoa to oviductal epithelial cells in porcine species.
After mating, inseminated spermatozoa are transported to the oviduct. They attach to and interact with oviductal epithelial cells (OEC). To investigate sperm-OEC interactions, we used… Expand

The two major urinary metabolites of 14C-timolol in man, involving oxidation and hydrolytic cleavage of the morpholine ring, are also observed in both Sprague-Dawley rats and CRCD-1 mice. These are… Expand
Predictive water loss curves for ram spermatozoa during cryopreservation: comparison with experimental observations.
Calculated curves predicting intracellular water loss during cryopreservation at different cooling rates were calculated from published equations. To compute these curves, basic cell parameters… Expand
The physiological disposition and metabolism of enalapril maleate in laboratory animals.

N-[1-(S)-carboxy-3-phenylpropyl]-L-alanyl-L-proline (MK-422), is a potent angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, but as a diacid is poorly absorbed in laboratory animals. Enalapril maleate,… Expand
Electron-capture GLC determination of timolol in human plasma and urine.
A GLC procedure was developed for measuring nanogram quantities of timolol in plasma and urine. The unchanged drug was extracted into heptane-4% isoamyl alcohol from alkalinized plasma or urine,… Expand
