Improving ARTs: Microfluidics as a Tool for Sperm Selection

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sperm selection is a critical step in assisted reproductive technology (ART), as sperm quality directly influences embryo quality. In vivo, the female reproductive tract imposes several physical and physiological barriers that favors only the most optimal spermatozoa reaching the fertilization site.

Method of meal delivery influences estimates of postprandial metabolism and alkaline tide in a benthic fish

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Intragastric gavage is widely used in studies of digestive physiology to deliver standardised meals, yet it remains unclear whether it elicits postprandial metabolic and acid–base responses comparable to voluntary feeding. Here, we tested whether the method of meal delivery affects the magnitude and timing of the postprandial rise in metabolic

Miniature, Lightweight, One-Time-Opening Valve [PDF]

, 2008
The figure depicts the main parts of a prototype miniature, lightweight, onetime- opening valve. Like some other miniature one-time-opening valves reported in previous issues of NASA Tech Briefs, this valve is opened by melting a material that blocks the

A Population Pharmacokinetic Model of Gentamicin in Hospitalized Neonatal Foals

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Information on safe and effective gentamicin dosing in foals is limited. This study aimed to provide guidance regarding optimal dosing regimens by means of a population pharmacokinetic (popPK) model. Gentamicin plasma concentration of 290 samples from 72 hospitalized foals (≤ 14 days old), treated with intravenous (IV) gentamicin, was measured

Techniques for subretinal injections in animals

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 506-518, March 2025.
Abstract Subretinal injections are not commonly performed during clinical treatment of animals but are frequently used in laboratory animal models to assess therapeutic efficacy and safety of gene and cell therapy products. Veterinary ophthalmologists are often employed to perform the injections in the laboratory animal setting, due to knowledge of ...

Post‐exercise ketone supplementation improves endurance performance and mitochondrial adaptations during an 8‐week endurance training intervention

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐eight trained males completed 8 weeks of supervised indoor cycling training, receiving post‐exercise and pre‐sleep ketone monoester (KE, n = 14) or isocaloric placebo (CON, n = 14). Both groups improved 30 min time‐trial performance with training, but KE achieved a 4% higher power output than CON at the end of the training
