background: giardia has the ability to infect many mammals including dogs, cats, deer, mice, ground squirrels, chinchillas, swine, rabbits, pocket mice, oxen, guinea pigs, and humans. giardia lamblia (also giardia duodenalis, g.intestinalis) isolates have been variably divided into two or three genotypes by different investigators, and each group can be divided into subgroups. objectives: we ha...

the laboratory mouse is recognized as the pre-eminent model for genetic research. awareness of chromosomal patterns of experimental animals increases their value for a variety of different fields of study. we aimed to study mitotic chromosome preparations from nih, c57bl/6 and razi strains of mice, which are outbred, inbred and partially inbred laboratory mice respectively. bone marrow cells we...

Despite a lot of research, the etiology and progression of breast cancer remain incompletely understood. Recently, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) was reported as a risk factor for breast cancer. The aim of this study was to know whether breast cancer could be caused by cytomegalovirus or not? In this experiment seventeen samples of RAZI/A mice with spontaneous breast cancer were being gathered fr...

A brief account is given of early attempts to clone mammals (mice) by transferring cells (nuclei) of preimplantation embryos into enucleated oocytes, zygotes or blastomeres of two-cell embryos. This is followed by a brief review of recent successes using adult somatic cells: mammary gland cells for sheep, muscle cells for cattle and cumulus cells for mice. We have developed a technique for clon...
