Amanzio and Benedetti (J Neurosci 1999; 19: 484-494) first addressed the conditions necessary for the activation of opioid and non-opioid placebo responses in human. Here, we investigated whether placebo analgesia is subdivided into opioid and non-opioid

Abstract Background In horses, cats and dogs, the opioid butorphanol has been proven effective in management of visceral pain and for peri‐ and postoperative pain relief. The aim of this study was to evaluate physiological responses and indicators of noxious stimuli when adding butorphanol to xylazine for sedation of bull calves during surgical ...

Field immobilisation of adult Weddell seals using intramuscular butorphanol and midazolam
Abstract Background When working with free‐ranging phocid seals, methods of chemical immobilisation require ongoing refinement to reduce complications, particularly apnoea, during research procedures. Methods Adult Weddell seals (n = 20) at Cape Crozier, Antarctica, were chemically immobilised with intramuscular injection of butorphanol and midazolam ...

Social trauma and the mu-opioid system in depression
The overarching thesis under investigation is that the endogenous opioid system plays a key role in depression subsequent to traumatic childhood social experiences. This is suggested by the fact that animal work indicates that mu-opioids robustly mediate

Abstract The increasing prevalence of fentanyl within the illegal global drug market underscores the need for rapid, low‐cost, and straightforward detection methods. Eosin Y demonstrates a measurable color change in the presence of fentanyl, making it a promising candidate for colorimetric sensing and preliminary identification of fentanyl ...
