22. Olfactory sensitivity in CD-1 mice for six L- and D amino acids
University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiAbstract : The olfactory sensitivity of five male CD-1 mice (Mus musculus) for six amino acids was determined using an operant conditioning paradigm. All animals significantly distinguished dilutions as low as 0.01 mM L-cysteine, 3.3 mM L-methionine, 10 mM L-proline, 0. READ MORE

23. Ryttarens tygelsignalers inverkan på hästens beteende och trycket i tyglarna

24. Olfactory performance and neuropathology in the Tg6799 strain of Alzheimer’s disease model mice
University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiAbstract : The present study evaluated olfactory and cognitive abilities of the Tg6799 (also called 5xFAD) strain of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) model mice of two different age groups (2-3 and 8-10 months of age), and one group of healthy control mice (9-10 months). Employment of an operant conditioning paradigm using an automated olfactometer, an olfactory habituation/dishabituation test and a spatial learning test with non olfactory cues resulted in data showing that the 5xFAD mice develop olfactory impairments already at 2-3 months of age.
