Why Can't Rodents Vomit? A Comparative Behavioral, Anatomical, and Physiological Study [PDF]

, 2013
The vomiting (emetic) reflex is documented in numerous mammalian species, including primates and carnivores, yet laboratory rats and mice appear to lack this response.

Quantitative Assessment of Airborne Transmission of Human and Animal Influenza Viruses in the Ferret Model

Atmosphere, 2023
The WHO has developed a tool to assess the risk of newly emerging influenza viruses with pandemic potential (TIPRA). According to TIPRA, the main parameters for assessing the risk of human-to-human transmission of a novel influenza virus are its ability ...

Mapping the Architecture of Ferret Brains at Single-Cell Resolution

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Mapping the cytoarchitecture of the whole brain can reveal the organizational logic of neural systems. However, this remains a significant challenge, especially for gyrencephalic brains with a large volume.

Housing and Environmental Enrichment of the Domestic Ferret: A Multi-Sector Survey

Animals, 2022
Ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) are kept and used in multiple sectors of society, but little is known about how they are housed and what environmental enrichment (EE) they may benefit from.

A novel video tracking method to evaluate the effect of influenza infection and antiviral treatment on ferret activity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Ferrets are the preferred animal model to assess influenza virus infection, virulence and transmission as they display similar clinical symptoms and pathogenesis to those of humans.

Mapping influenza transmission in the ferret model to transmission in humans

eLife, 2015
The controversy surrounding 'gain-of-function' experiments on high-consequence avian influenza viruses has highlighted the role of ferret transmission experiments in studying the transmission potential of novel influenza strains.

Ex vivo Tissue Culture Protocols for Studying the Developing Neocortex

Bio-Protocol, 2021
The size of the neocortex and its morphology are highly divergent across mammalian species. Several approaches have been utilized for the analysis of neocortical development and comparison among different species.

Mycoplasmosis in Ferrets

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
We report an outbreak of severe respiratory disease associated with a novel Mycoplasma species in ferrets. During 2009-2012, a respiratory disease characterized by nonproductive coughing affected ≈8,000 ferrets, 6-8 weeks of age, which had been imported from a breeding facility in Canada. Almost 95% became ill, but almost none died.
