The glycolytic enzymes of guinea-pig lung in experimental bagassosis

Glycogen Metabolism of Guinea - Pig Liver in Experimental Bagassosis

Biochemical investigations have revealed various metabolic disturbances in guinea-pig lungs, associated with experimental bagassosis (Singh, Mitra, Venkitasubramanian & Viswanathan, 1960; Singh, Venkitasubramanian & Viswanathan, 1961). Singh, Venkitasubramanian & Viswanathan (1962) noted changes in the cellular constituents of guinea-pig lungs in experimental bagassosis: these included a remark...

Karyotype of Hairless Guinea pig

Chromosomal patterns of experimental animals are useful tools for cytogenetics research and animal breeding. Chromosome investigations of the hairless guinea pig are rare, therefore, karyotype of hairless guinea pigs (twelve male and female) was studied using metaphase spreads of bone marrows and G banding techniques. The chromosomes diploid number was 2n= 64 and polymorphism of three type chro...

Some observations on the feeding of the guinea pig

Experimental syphilis: guinea pig model.

Outbred Hartley male guinea pigs (300-400 g) were infected intradermally with various concentrations of Treponema pallidum Nichols strain in the pubic region. The median lethal dose (ID50) was approximately 10(5). The animals produced lesions visible by darkfield microscopy, treponemal antibodies (IgG only), and histopathological changes in the lymphoid organs. Though less susceptible to T pall...

Studying the Mechanical Behavior of Tissue in the Generation of Pressure Sores using Simulation and a Guinea Pig Experimental Model

Introduction:  Pressure  sores  refer  to  lesions  that  are  produced  while  a  constant  pressure  causes  necrotic  tissue to grow. The need for a better comprehension of the process has led researchers to artificial generation  of  pressure  sores.  Modeling  the  mechanical  behavior  of tissue  will  provide  a better understanding  of this  process as well as a more suitable selection ...
