Cultivation of Giardia duodenalis in Mongolian gerbils.
The Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) is susceptible to infection with Giardia duodenalis trophozoites. Each animal was orally infected with 0.5 ml Diamond's TYIS-33 culture medium containing 10(6) trophozoites. Cysts were then collected and concentrated by sucrose gradient centrifugation. G. duodenalis cysts were first observed in feces on day 5 post-infection. The characteristic of G. ...
متن کاملTelemetered Temperature Monitoring in Preweanling Mongolian Gerbils
SCHNEIDER, J. R., A. M. VELTRI, W. A. DEGRAW AND J. A. FRENCH. Telemetered temperature monitoring in preweanling Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus). PHYSIOL BEHAV 57(I), 199-203, 1995.--Like most small mammals, Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) are born without the ability to maintain core body temperature (Tb). Breeding adults, juvenile alloparents, nest materials, and other lit...
متن کاملExperimental peritonitis induced by oral administration of indomethacin in Mongolian gerbils
The possibility of inducing peritoneal inflammation in three murine species (gerbils, rats and mice) via the oral administration of indomethacin was investigated with the overall aim of developing an experimental animal model for human peritonitis. Gerbils given high doses of indomethacin at a rate of 30 mg and 40 mg/kg body weight showed swelling of the abdomen, depression and dyspnea within 4...
متن کاملContextual processing of brightness and color in Mongolian gerbils.
Brightness and color cues are essential for visually guided behavior. However, for rodents, little is known about how well they do use these cues. We used a virtual reality setup that offers a controlled environment for sensory testing to quantitatively investigate visually guided behavior for achromatic and chromatic stimuli in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus). In two-alternative forc...
متن کاملImpaired auditory temporal selectivity in the inferior colliculus of aged Mongolian gerbils.
Aged humans show severe difficulties in temporal auditory processing tasks (e.g., speech recognition in noise, low-frequency sound localization, gap detection). A degradation of auditory function with age is also evident in experimental animals. To investigate age-related changes in temporal processing, we compared extracellular responses to temporally variable pulse trains and human speech in ...
