Heptachlor is a pesticide for foliar, soil and structural (buildings) applications. It is particularly effective against termites. However heptachlor and related chlorinated hydrocarbons pose a special problem because they are not easily biodegradable and therefore affect the ecology of the envir...

A bobine cDNA encoding erythropoietin (Epo) was isolated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and screening of a bovine kidney cDNA library. The sequenced cDNA has a length of 1312 bp and an open reading frame that encodes a predicted 192-amino-acid (aa) protein, including a putative ...

Chinese breeds of swine are known for their reproductive prolificacy and are noted for large litter size. The current investigation evaluated reproductive components of three breeds of Chinese boars in comparison to a contemporary sire breed common in the U.S. Semen from postpubertal Duroc, Meish...
