Stress induced grooming in the rat -- An endorphin mediated syndrome
(Elsevier, 1979-07)
Exposure of adult male Sprague--Dawley rats to a non-traumatic noise-light stress procedure subsequently increased grooming behavior in a novel environment. The grooming syndrome was marginally facilitated by adrenalectomy ...
Hepatic microsomal epoxidation of bromobenzene to phenols and its toxicological implication
(Elsevier, 1979-09-15)
In vitro microsomal hepatic epoxidation of bromobenzene in rats and mice is presented in this study. Formation of o-bromophenol via bromobenzene-2,3-epoxide and p-bromophenol via bromobenzene-3,4-epoxide was assayed ...
A map of the sites in the polyoma genome cleaved by endonuclease AluI
(Elsevier, 1979-01-30)
The 29 sites in the polyoma genome cleaved by endonuclease (endo) Alul and the site cleaved by endo XbaI have been identified. The AluI fragments range in size from 0.9 to 37 x 104 daltons; 17 sites are located in the ...
An investigation of the maximum experimental safe gap anomaly
(Elsevier, 1979)
The "safe gap" is defined as the maximum gap between two close-fitting, flat, machined metal surfaces that will just prevent an explosion within a vessel from producing a propagating combustion wave in the gases that ...
Tail pinch induced stress-arousal facilitates brain stimulation reward
(Elsevier, 1979-01)
Adult male Sprague Dawley rats with chronic access to self stimulation were subjected to handling, tail pinch, or left undisturbed. Tail pinch increased responding for positive reinforcement while the other conditions did ...
Central injection of substance P elicits grooming behavior and motor inhibition in mice
(Elsevier, 1979-04)
Substance P undecapeptide (SP) was injected into the lateral ventricles of adult male Swiss-Webster mice. Two behaviors were observed after peptide. SP increased grooming in a naloxone non-reversible manner and reduced ...
Sexuality and rheumatic disease: A prospective study
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Human Sciences Press; Human Sciences Press ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1979-06)
A prospective study of 70 women and 30 men admitted to the University of Michigan Arthritis Center Adult Inpatient Unit was undertaken to document the incidence of specific sexual problems and to learn from individuals who ...
The acute toxicity of copper to Gammarus fasciatus say, a freshwater amphipod
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 1979-01)
Gammarus fasclatus could, and possible should, be used as the experimental organism in conjunction with other organisms being used in laboratory bioassays.
Hypophysectomy and the structure of exploratory behavior in the rat
(Elsevier, 1979-10)
Chronically maintained hypophysectomized or sham-operated adult male Sprague/2-Dawley rats were exposed to a novel environment and their activity patterns were recorded for 4 hr. A comparison of behavior across groups ...
