BACKGROUND Androgenic steroids regulate the development and size of the mammalian
prostate gland. The mechanism (s) for this growth control might involve a direct effect on …

This study examined the uptake of BSA-conjugated 1μm fluorescent latex microspheres from
bath suspensions by 1· 5–3· 0g rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum). Uptake …

Local deposition density of microspheres is heterogeneous in histologically homogeneous
myocardium under physiological conditions. The underlying biological heterogeneity must …

1 The fetus develops cardiovascular adaptations to protect vital organs in situations such as
hypoxia and asphyxia. These include bradycardia, increased systemic blood pressure and …

Background: In congestive heart failure (CHF) the skeletal muscle of the lower limbs
develops a myopathy characterised by atrophy and shift from the slow to the fast type fibres …

To explore mechanisms of hypoxemia after acute pulmonary embolism, we measured
regional pulmonary blood flow and alveolar ventilation before and after embolization with …

The accuracy of the fluorescent (FM) and radioactive microsphere (RM) techniques is similar
in acute experiments but has not been established in chronic experiments. In the present …

We evaluated several histological methods and determined their advantages and
disadvantages for histological studies of tissues and organs perfused with fluorescent …

Our comparison of fluorescence excitation and absorption spectra from 40nm polystyrene
spheres containing six different dyes illustrates efficient excitation energy transfer among the …
