Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma cortisol in the horse, diurnal rhythm and effects of exogenous ACTH.
TL;DR: In this paper, the mean Cortisol level was markedly lower and the cyclic variation out of phase with the basal diurnal pattern during the immediate 24 hrs after ACTH injection, and no differences could be seen between the two patterns on day 3 after injection.
Plasma cortisol in the horse, diurnal rhythm and effects of exogenous ACTH [cortisol levels]
TL;DR: Peripheral blood plasma Cortisol concentration and its diurnal variation was measured in 4 horses and no differences could be seen between the 2 patterns on day 3 after injection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perfluoroalkyl acids in subarctic wild male mink (Neovison vison) in relation to age, season and geographical area
TL;DR: The overall results suggest that the mink is a suitable sentinel species for assessing and monitoring environmental levels of PFAAs.
