Abstract:
... High‐yielding Holstein‐Friesian recipients (n = 43) were used in order to investigate the relation between energy balance status during the early postpartum period and subsequent embryonic mortality after transferring good‐quality frozen embryos. Blood samples were collected during the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh weeks postpartum in order to measure energy status indicators. Th ...

Abstract:
... Red-crowned cranes (Grus japonensis) are native to eastern Hokkaido (island population), in contrast to the mainland, which migrates between the Amur River basin and eastern China–Korea peninsula. During the 1990s we found that Red-crowned cranes in Hokkaido were highly contaminated with mercury: however, the source was unknown. We investigated the time trend of mercury contamination in Red-crowne ...

Abstract:
... Objective: To investigate dose-related diuretic effects of medetomidine hydrochloride and xylazine hydrochloride in healthy cats. Animals: 5 sexually intact cats (4 males and 1 female). Procedures: The 5 cats received each of 11 treatments. Cats were treated by IM administration of saline (0.9% NaCl) solution (control treatment), medetomidine hydrochloride (20, 40, 80, 160, and 320 μg/kg), and xyl ...

Abstract:
... The past several decades have seen the development of many controlled-release preparations featuring constant release rates to maintain drug concentrations in the human body, regardless of the patient's physiological condition. However, long-term constant drug concentrations in the blood and tissue can cause problems such as resistance, tolerability, and drug side effects. People vary considerably ...

Abstract:
... Dietary fucoxanthin has been reported to exert several physiological functions, and fucoxanthinol is considered to be the primary active metabolite of fucoxanthin. However, there is no information about the pharmacokinetics of fucoxanthinol in human subjects. In the present study, eighteen human volunteers were orally administered kombu extract containing 31 mg fucoxanthin, and their peripheral bl ...
