A nondamaging blood sampling technique for waterfowl embryos
Development of minimally invasive techniques to collect blood in free-living birds is desirable for both ethical and conservation reasons. We describe a new, simple technique for collecting blood samples from waterfowl eggs that involves recovering blood from a small hemorrhage after puncturing the shell of eggs showing the first signs of hatching. This technique allowed us to obtain a large nu...
متن کاملa technique for facile and precise transfer of mouse embryos
background: successful embryo transfer (et) technique is a fateful step of all efforts to achieve live births from in vitro produced embryos in assisted reproductive techniques or in knockout, transgenic or cloned animal projects. small reproductive tract of mice and limitation of current techniques may not well satisfy the requirements for mass production of genetically modified mice. genetic ...
متن کاملIntroducing a combined Leishman-Giemsa stain as a new staining technique for avian blood smears
Background: The use of conventional stains including Giemsa, Wright and Leishman have become an essential tool for differential diagnosis of cells in peripheral blood. Aims: The aim of the study was to develop a new combination of Leishman-Giemsa (L&G;) stain for avian blood smears and to compare its efficacy with conventional staining methods. Methods:<...
متن کاملA New Sampling Technique for Tensors
In this paper we propose new techniques to sample arbitrary third-order tensors, with an objective of speeding up tensor algorithms that have recently gained popularity in machine learning. Our main contribution is a new way to select, in a biased random way, only O(n/ǫ) of the possible n elements while still achieving each of the three goals: (a) tensor sparsification: for a tensor that has to...
متن کاملA technique for bacteriological sampling of hair.
Bacteriological sampling of hair has been previously carried out by applying culture plates directly to the hair but the resulting heavy growth of mixed organisms could make rapid identification of individual colonies difficult and the use of selective media with this technique prevents a comparison of relative numbers of different organisms. The method described here, based onatechnique used b...
