Alkaline Phosphatase Activity in Wound Healing in Normal and Scorbutic Guinea Pigs
The phosphatase enzymes are numerous in living systems and appear to function in a broad range of biological activities. Common to all phosphatase enzyme reactions are phosphorylated substrates wherein the phosphate moiety is removed via the hydrolytic action of the phosphatase. | Although most all …

Determination of denning bear isolate and its effects on non-denning guinea pigs
The North American Black Bear (Ursus americanus) fasts for five months in the winter. While maintaining body temperature at 35$\sp\circ$C, the bear requires no food or water and does not urinate or defecate. Anabolic functions such as protein synthesis and bone remodeling continue. Female bears …

Lymphocyte populations and their relationship to cell-mediated immune responses in aflatoxin-treated guinea pigs
… on cell-mediated immunity were investigated in guinea pigs. Dose dependent reductions in skin test responses were observed in guinea pigs which received at least 0.040 mg/kg/day aflatoxin B(,1) equivalents (B(,1) eq) for 3 weeks. Reduced weight gains were apparent at the 0.020 mg/kg/day B(,1) eq …
