Feeding in golden hamsters, Mesocricetus auratus [PDF]
AbstractSimultaneous cine and electromyographic records of freely feeding, unanesthetized golden hamsters show that their motion and muscular activity during mastication differ from those of albino rats (Weijs, '75). Rats show only propalinal motion while hamsters show lateral translation as well.

ABSTRACT The increasing focus on understanding spermatozoa mechanisms in rodents aims to enhance reproductive stability and support conservation efforts, particularly for ecologically significant and declining species like the red‐rumped agouti. We aimed to evaluate the interaction between capacitation media and time, testing BSA concentrations—low (4 ...

Abstract This case series describes aural lesions occurring in five African giant pouched rats (Cricetomys ansorgei) residing at a single zoological institution in southern California. Age of onset ranged from 3 to 7 years. Lesions occurred as single or multiple masses on one or both ears. A single case also developed a nasal mass.

Prevention of Clostridium difficile infection in hamsters using a non-toxigenic strain
: The present study aimed to evaluate five non-toxigenic strains of Clostridium difficile (NTCD) in vitro and to select one strain to prevent C. difficile (CDI) infection in hamsters ( Mesocricetus auratus ).

Work minimization accounts for footfall phasing in slow quadrupedal gaits [PDF]
Quadrupeds, like most bipeds, tend to walk with an even left/right footfall timing. However, the phasing between hind and forelimbs shows considerable variation.

Abstract We present a case of a coinfection with two papillomaviruses—Erethizon dorsatum papillomavirus types 1 and 2 (EdPV1/2) in a North American porcupine housed in a German zoo. The animal exhibited exophytic black papules on the skin of the face and legs.

Hereditary hydrocephalus internus in a laboratory strain of golden hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) [PDF]
Golden hamsters of one common laboratory strain had a high incidence of hydrocephalus internus. When a severity score of hydrocephalus was used, a major autosomal recessive locus could be identified.

Asymmetry in the ovary and uterus of the golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) [PDF]
On Day 9 of pregnancy (day of mating = Day 1), the number of corpora lutea in the right ovary was greater than that in the left (mean +/- s.e.m. 9.3 +/- 0.1 and 6.5 +/- 0.3 respectively; N = 70). Although the percentages of ova fertilized on the left and right side were not different (82% and 94%), the percentage wastage was higher on the left side (20%
