Effect of uterine torsion intrapartum on concentrations of placental estrogens and progesterone in cattle.

Objective: The current study investigates how uterine torsion influences placental oestrogens and progesterone blood concentrations in intrapartum cows. Our research tests the hypothesis that intrapartum uterine torsion impairs the ability of the placenta to synthesize steroids and may also suppress the release of synthesized steroids into the maternal circulation.
Methods: The study included a total number of 37 intrapartum dairy cows of various breeds and ages.

Background And Aim: Measuring blood progesterone (P4) concentration has become an essential diagnostic tool in small animal reproductive medicine. Methods enabling precise and rapid on-site measurements are in high demand, especially for the optimization of breeding management in bitches. This study aimed to compare two commercial on-site methods (Speed™ P4, Virbac [M1] and mini VIDAS®, bioMérieux [M2]) and a well-established radioimmunoassay (RIA), which was used as a reference method.

Thyroid hormones are essential for metabolism, energy homeostasis and reproduction. Hormones can be measured in various biological source materials: blood, feces, urine, saliva and others. The aim of our study was to verify usefulness of thyroid hormone analysis in the urine and feces of the domestic rabbit (), comparing them with the serum analyses.

Objectives: Composite resins are the most preferred filling material because of their excellent aesthetic qualities. However, a filling material should also be biocompatible as well as aesthetic. The aim of this study was to determine the serum and saliva bisphenol-A (BPA) levels and to examine the effects of serum BPA on reproductive hormone levels after healthy men were treated with composite fillings.

Klinik für Geburtshilfe, Gynäkologie und Andrologie der Groß- und Kleintiere mit Tierärztlicher Ambulanz, Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen.
Objective: Measurement of steroid hormones in skin appendages such as mammalian hair or claws and in avian feathers represents a recognized non-invasive method for the determination of these parameters. The aim of this pilot study in the Gila Monster was to investigate whether the measurement of sex steroids in shed skin may be employed for the monitoring of endocrine gonadal function or sex determination in reptiles.
Material And Methods: Shed skins were available from 11 female and 7 male adult and sexually mature animals.
