  • The uptake and retention of cesium-134 in Microtus canicaudus Miller

    Creator:
    Lei, Wayne
    Abstract:
    A study was performed to assess the uptake and retention patterns of cesium-134 in the gray-tailed vole, Microtus canicaudus Miller. To furnish a realistic source of contaminated food for the voles, wheat seedlings were raised in hydroponic solutions to provide radiocesium labeled wheat clippings. The hydroponic system was designed to...

  • Some possible roles for selenium in the reproductive physiology of the male graytailed vole (Microtus canicaudus)

    Creator:
    Whitfield, Stephen Curtiss
    Abstract:
    The testes of the gray-tailed vole (Microtus canicaudus Miller) exhibited a high affinity for selenium relative to other selected tissues. Uptake of selenium-75 in the testis-epididymis complex was delayed relative to uptake by the whole body, kidney, and liver. This pattern of uptake suggested that selenium was metabolically incorporated into...
