Background: Due to the seasonality reproduction of albino hamster (April to October in the Northern Hemisphere) and the need to produce blastocysts for research applications, producing and collecting blastocysts by natural mating in non-breeding season is complex in this species. In the present study in vivo blastocysts production and collection using super-ovulation and intrauterine inseminati...

Background: Busulfan is an alkylating agent, which inhibits cell dividing by sticking to one of the DNA strands. The aim of the present study was establishment and stereological evaluation of testes of azoospermic animal model using busulfan in albino hamster. Materials and Methods: Male adult albino hamsters were randomly assigned into 3 groups. The first group was injected one dose of busulfa...

1. A pneumotropic virus which forms elementary bodies has been isolated from apparently normal albino Swiss mice. 2. The antigenic relationship of this virus to those of meningopneumonitis, lymphogranuloma venereum, hamster pneumonia (7), and human pneumonitis (8) was established either by cross-immunity or complement fixation or both. 3. In spite of a relationship to other viruses, the virus c...

In vivo blastocyst production and collection using superovulation and intrauterine insemination was established in albino Syrian hamsters. Twenty female albino hamsters were injected pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG, 25 IU) in non-breeding season and 48 h or 56 h later, 25 IU of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) were injected. Both groups were divided into two subgroups of natural mating...

This study aims to explain the phenomenon of motion in hamsters moving a rolling wheel. Motion is one materials taught at 7th-grade junior high school. The can be used learning with practicum method, namely animal motion. Hamster (Cricetinae) analyzed using video tracker analysis application javascript program. direct experiment hamster four reference points, forelegs, head, middle body, and hi...

Introduction: Genital system is important herd in animal's creation. It is necessary for animal reproduction. Mammal has two sex in genital system such as male and female in separated animals. Animal reproduction destroyed by disorder of genital system. In this case, animals cannot produce an animal similar to them. Finally it cause overthrow a species of animals. Methods: Histomorpholog...

a six month old male hamster living in a colony of hamster in the animal house of urmia university, urmia, iran, was found with restlessness and circling signs. the clinical examination revealed symptoms and signs of encephalitis. therefore microbiological and histopathologic studies were conducted after euthanizing the animal. finally, the results of laboratory tests demonstrated listeria mono...
