Small animal biomagnetism applications [PDF]
In: Labyt, E., Sander, T., Wakai, R. (eds) Flexible High
Performance Magnetic Field Sensors. Springer, Cham, 2022 The functioning of the human brain, nervous system and heart is based on the conduction of electrical signals. These electrical signals also create magnetic fields which extend outside the human body. Highly sensitive magnetometers, such as superconducting quantum interference device magnetometers or optically pumped magnetometers, placed outside the ...

Establishment and optimization of an in vitro guinea pig oocyte maturation system.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Guinea pigs are a valuable animal model for studying various diseases, including reproductive diseases. However, techniques for generating embryos via embryo engineering in guinea pigs are limited; for instance, in vitro maturation (IVM) technique is ...

Severe allergic reactions to guinea pig
Clinical and Molecular Allergy, 2005 Background Allergic sensitization and reactions to guinea pig (Cavia porcellus) have been well documented in laboratory animal handlers, primarily manifesting as rhinitis, conjunctivitis, and asthma. Severe allergic reactions, however, are rare.

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.

Eotaxin: a potent eosinophil chemoattractant cytokine detected in a guinea pig model of allergic airways inflammation. [PDF]
, 1994 Eosinophil accumulation is a prominent feature of allergic inflammatory reactions, such as those occurring in the lung of the allergic asthmatic, but the endogenous chemoattractants involved have not been identified.

Use of a Guinea pig-specific transcriptome array for evaluation of protective immunity against genital chlamydial infection following intranasal vaccination in Guinea pigs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Guinea pigs have been used as a second animal model to validate putative anti-chlamydial vaccine candidates tested in mice. However, the lack of guinea pig-specific reagents has limited the utility of this animal model in Chlamydia sp.

POLIOMYELITIS IN GUINEA-PIGS [PDF]
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1913 P. H. Roemer 2 has noticed that guinea-pigs in his laboratory frequently died of a paralysis which was very similar to that of epidemic poliomyelitis. On studying the cause of this paralysis he found a non-bacterial, filterable virus which could be transmitted from guinea-pig to guinea-pig, and which caused, after an incubation period of nine to twelve
