Anti‐Müllerian Hormone as a Marker for Castration Status and Fertility in Bulls and Oxen

open access: yesReproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Anti‐Müllerian hormone (AMH) has been established as an indicator of castration status and fertility in several species. However, its applicability in postpubertal bulls and oxen has not yet been thoroughly investigated. This study examined 73 bulls aged between 12 and 107 months and 37 oxen older than 12 months.

Pairing Alpaca and Llama-Derived Single Domain Antibodies to Enhance Immunoassays for Ricin

open access: yesAntibodies, 2017
Previously, our group isolated and evaluated anti-ricin single domain antibodies (sdAbs) derived from llamas, engineered them to further increase their thermal stability, and utilized them for the development of sensitive immunoassays. In work focused on

Birth of a Live Cria After Transfer of a Vitrified-Warmed Alpaca (Vicugna pacos) Preimplantation Embryo

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
The alpaca (Vicugna pacos) is an important species for the production of fiber and food. Genetic improvement programs for alpacas have been hindered, however, by the lack of field-practical techniques for artificial insemination and embryo transfer.
