Not more than three tissue kallikreins identified from organs of the guinea pig [PDF]
, 1999 The large and varied multigene families of tissue kallikreins of rat and mouse are considered to selectively release as many bioactive peptides. In order to determine whether a similar family of enzymes is expressed in the organs of the guinea pig ...

Not so presto? Outcomes of sluggish prestin in outer hair cells [PDF]
AIP Conf. Proc. 3062, 050002 (2024), 2020 Prestin (SLC26A5), a protein essential for the sensitivity of the mammalian ear, was so named from \emph{presto}. The assumption was that this membrane protein supports fast movement of outer hair cells (OHCs) that matches the mammalian hearing range, up to 20 kHz in general and beyond, depending on the species.

Guinea Pig and Rat as Carriers of Host-unique and Shared Haemophilus Phenotypes [PDF]
, 2008 Infections by V- factor dependent Pasteurellaceae (commonly called Haemophilus spp) frequently occur in colonies of guinea pig and rat. We evaluated possible differences between 185 Haemophilus strains from guinea pig (n=97) and rat (n=88) by API NH ...
