  1. Seasonal Energetics of the Cotton Rat (Sigmon Hispidus) From Southwest Missouri

    Mitchell, Dora Ann

    To determine what strategies the cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus) may employ to survive harsh winters, monthly (June, 1988 through January, 1990) measurements of metabolic rates, nonshivering thermogenesis (NST), thermal conductance, and body mass were made. In addition, serum thyroxine (T₄) levels …

  6. Mucosal and systemic immune responses induced by immunisation of cotton rats with recombinant adenoviruses

    Papp, ZsuzsannaUniversity of Saskatchewan1998

    … conferring protection against BHV-1 infection, a cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus) model for intranasal BHV-1 challenge was developed. I used this model to assess the ability of different routes of immunisation with the recombinant adenoviruses to elicit gD-specific systemic and mucosal immunity and …

  7. Photoperiodic Control of Reproduction in Male Hispid Cotton Rats, Sigmodon Hispidus

    Shoemaker, Drew D.

    The hispid cotton rat, Sigmodon hispidus, has been shown to have a seasonal reproductive cycle and may use photoperiod to regulate this cycle. Male Sigmodon were placed in differing photoperiods, and serum prolactin, testicular size, testicular mass and spermatogenic activity were measured as …
