This study deals with the patterns of development and distribution
of connective tissue fibers in the placentae and adnexa of the golden
hamster (Mesocricetus auratus Waterhouse). The placentae and
adnexa representing all days of gestation from six to term were
stained for the presence of collagen, reticulin, and elastin. Additionally,...
This study deals with the autoradiographic analysis, using a
DNA precursor (tritiated thymidine), of the trophoblastic giant cells
in the placentae of the golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus Waterhouse),
beginning with the sixth day of gestation and extending to term
on day sixteen. Both the percent of labelled cells in the...
The object of this study was to investigate the possibilities
of inducing superovulation in the chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera)
by establishing the optimum dosage of pregnant mares' serum (PMS)
to produce a maximum ovulatory response, and to compare chinchilla
with other animals in this respect. Non-pregnant female chinchillas
were given a...
This study deals with the histochemistry of the
changing patterns of glycogen in the uterus and extra-embryonic membranes of the golden hamster (Mesocricetus
auratus Waterhouse). The uterus and extra-embryonic
membranes of the golden hamster representing days of
gestation from six to term were stained with periodic
acid-Schiff and Best's carmine....
The patterns of cell proliferation in the choroid plexuses of
embryonic and post-natal hamsters were studied by means of auto-radiography
(H³-thymidine). In addition, the PAS technique was
used to determine the times of first appearance, relative amounts,
location, and times of disappearance of glycogen free the plexuses.
Many mitotic figures...
This study deals with the histochemical identification of the
changing patterns of glycogen in the uterus of the early pregnant and
lactating golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus Waterhouse). The uterus of the hamster representing days one through five of gestation,
and one through ten, twelve, and fourteen of lactation, provided the...
This histochemical study deals with the changing patterns of
glycogen in the uterus of the immature virgin, cycling virgin, and
post partum (non-lactating) golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus
Waterhouse). The periodic acid-Schiff technique was used for the
histochemical localization of glycogen in the uterus of the immature,
cycling and non-lactating post...
