(19) Antibody to ovine LH beta (oLH beta) subunit and equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) were produced in adult male chimpanzees and evaluated for cross reactivity with oLH, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and eCG by in vitro and in vivo methods.
(20) Because of the relative availability of chimpanzees for laboratory studies, we suggest that chimpanzees may be the optimal nonhuman primate model for determining the advisability of vaccinations in man using conjugates of HCG fragments to achieve fertility control or for suppression of HCG-producing neoplasms.
Extant
Definition:
(a.) Standing out or above any surface; protruded.
(a.) Still existing; not destroyed or lost; outstanding.
(a.) Publicly known; conspicuous.
Example Sentences:
(1) There is extant a population of subjects who have average or better than average interpretive reading skills as measured by standardized tests but who read slowly and inefficiently.
(2) For example, most large extant lizards are herbivorous.
(3) Whereas all extant vertical clingers and leapers share certain femoral traits (i.e., long femur, proximally restricted trochanters, ventrally raised patellar articular surface), Galagidae and Tarsiidae share features of the proximal femur (i.e., cylindrical head, large posterior expansion of articular surface onto the neck) that clearly distinguish them from the specialized leapers of the Malagasy Republic (Indriidae and Lepilemur).
(4) This method provides an improvement in sensitivity over extant spectrophotometric methods and circumvents limitations of assays using radioactive pyruvate.
(5) His data also indicate that the supraorbital region in extant humans cannot be accurately modeled as a beam.
(6) On the basis of morphophysiologic relationships in extant populations, it can be assumed that mean annual osteonal creation frequency, and mean annual Haversian bone formation rate can be reliably determined in extinct populations.
(7) The older listener performance measures were compared with extant data from 20 normally hearing young adult listeners (mean age = 22 years).
(8) These findings suggest that thyroxine-potentiated mitogenesis promotes greater numbers of new motor neurons to the LMC while, simultaneously, target removal delays the loss of extant cells.
(9) Jeletzkya douglassae Johnson and Richardson is described as the oldest known representative of an extant squid group.
(10) Photoperiod-mediated differential responsiveness to 6-MBOA indicates that female house mice can discriminate long from short days, and these results suggest that the physiological mechanisms for photoperiodic responsiveness remain extant in this species previously characterized as nonphotperiodic.
