“…METHODS: To investigate this aspect of hyperhomocysteinemia, we supplemented developing chicks (n = 8) with 0.6% dl-homocysteine (hCySH) for the first 8 weeks of life in comparison to controls (n = 10), and studied biochemical, biomechanical and morphologic effects of this nutritional intervention. RESULTS: hCySH-fed animals grew faster and had longer tibiae at the end of the study. …”

“…A deuterated probe drug, such as d6-aminopyrine, can be used to measure endogenous nitrosation levels in experimental animals. In contrast, for higher alkyl homologues of alkylpurines, natural backgrounds are low or nonexistent and can be directly measured by GC-MS using stable isotope labeled internal standards. …”

“…They are as follows: The degree of halogenation and position of the halogen atoms determine the potency of PCB, PBB, CDD, CDF and CN; in a given species of animals, the clinicopathologic syndrome induced by PCB is comparable to that induced by polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (CDD), chlorinated dibenzofurans (CDF), and chlorinated naphthalenes (CN) when an equitoxic dose is achieved; The clinicopathologic syndrome is different in each species of animals; Different species of animals vary in their susceptibility to intoxication; intoxication is more readily effected in young animals that in adults; at lethal doses the time between exposure and death is prolonged (greater than 2 weeks).…”

“…In the rat urinary bladder, neoplastic change can be initiated by a few weeks treatment with low doses of N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN) or N-[4-(5-nitro-2-furyl)-2-thiazolyl]formamide (FANFT) or by a single, low dose, intravesicular instillation of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU). Very few animals treated thus will develop bladder cancer unless exposed subsequently to some further regime which will promote tumor growth from the initiated cells. …”

In the area of experimental design, issues that must be considered include randomization of animals, sample size considerations, dose selection and allocation of animals to experimental groups, and control of potentially confounding factors. …”

“…To test their biocompatibility and ability for osseointegration, osseoinduction and -conduction requires their placement within bone preferably in an animal experiment of a higher species. METHODS: A suitable experimental animal model in sheep with drill holes of 8 mm diameter and 13 mm depth within the proximal and distal humerus and femur for testing biocompatibility issues is introduced. …”
