The Vietnamese pot-bellied pig is a breed with high investigation potential. However, at the reproductive level, its testicular characteristics are still unknown, as well as the different stages of its development. Therefore, the objective of this work is to describe the postnatal testicular development of Vietnamese pot-bellied pigs.

- The study aimed to develop air-filled nanocapsules as ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs) using a biodegradable polymer shell (PLGA) to improve tumor detection.
- Current UCAs are too large to penetrate tumor vasculature, so nanoscale design is crucial for better imaging capabilities and mechanical stability against ultrasound pressure.
- The nanocapsules, measuring about 370nm in diameter, demonstrated significant echogenic power and stability, indicating their potential for use in ultrasound imaging.
