the aim of this study was to evaluate the concentrations of reproductive hormones in blood plasma and in follicular fluids of different sized follicles during various stages of the estrous cycle in holstein cattle. jugular blood samples from 42 adult holstein cattle were collected immediately after the slaughter. antral fluids from small (4-5 mm), medium (6-9 mm) and large (10-20 mm) follicles ...

A competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method was used to measure the concentration of lactoferrin in fluids from 36 odontogenic keratocysts, 15 dentigerous cysts, and 30 radicular/residual cysts. Keratocyst fluids contained significantly higher concentrations of lactoferrin than fluids from the other two types of cyst (p less than 0.001); but the range of values obtained withi...

As internists we like to think of ourselves as physicians with knowledge of disturbances of the milieu intérieur. Indeed, other specialities often call us for help when they are confronted with fluid and electrolyte disorders. The unrivalled number one of your electrolyte consults will undoubtedly be hyponatraemia. For example, hyponatraemia may arise in the postoperative period due to the comb...
