Cloning and characterization of the hamster and guinea pig nicotinic acid receptors
In this study, we present the identification and characterization of hamster and guinea pig nicotinic acid receptors. The hamster receptor shares ∼80–90% identity with the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of human, mouse, and rat receptors. The guinea

Stapedectomy in the guinea pig
Stapedectomy has traditionally been studied in the feline model. Ethical considerations and costs have made this model less feasible for ongoing research. The purpose of this study was to examine the guinea pig as a model for research on stapedectomy. Technical difficulties included limited exposure and small dimensions of the ossicles.

Use of a Guinea pig-specific transcriptome array for evaluation of protective immunity against genital chlamydial infection following intranasal vaccination in Guinea pigs. [PDF]
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]
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
