静磁场对单株人体体表正常菌生长影响的研究

本文通过40mT和120mT两种静磁场作用下表皮葡萄球菌生长过程的研究,发现试验所选强度静磁场加速了表皮葡萄球菌在对数生长期的生长速率,而在进入稳定生长期后其生长速率反而低于对照组,但就整个生长周期而言,静磁场作用下表皮葡萄球菌的总量大于对照组,表明了试验所选静磁场对表皮葡萄球菌生长有一定促进作用.     

Induction of estrus in cows by a new analogue of PGF2α(alfaprostol)

A new analogue of PGFα, alfaprostol, was used to induce estrus in normally cycling and anestrous cows.Five groups of six animals were treated with single injections of different doses of the drug (4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 mg/animal) on day 10–11 of the estrous cycle. Six cows in anestrus, with palpable corpora lutea, were treated i.m. with 8 mg/animal. The luteolytic properties of alfaprostol were assessed by measuring milk progesterone by RIA for 96 h after treatment and by checking for the subsequent signs of estrus. The dose of 4 mg caused a slight fall in progesterone but did not induce heat; the 5 and 6 mg doses induced estrus in animals and the 7 mg dose was effective in animals. The 8 mg dose produced a sharp reduction in milk progesterone within 24 h, followed by estrus in both the normally cycling and the anestrous groups in animals. No clinical signs of drug intolerance were seen. The present results show that alfaprostol might be of great use for both cycle synchronization in normally cycling cows and for treatment of anestrus caused by a persistent corpus luteum.
