Description

Application

Castor oil is a triglyceride obtained from Ricinus communis. It has been used to study its impact on rat lens condition. Castor oil has also been used as a test reagent for studying the dose-response relationship and mechanism of action of Saccharomyces boulardii by utilizing the rat model of castor oil-induced diarrhea.

Dose-response relationship and mechanism of action of Saccharomyces boulardii in castor oil-induced diarrhea in rats.

Philippe Girard et al.

Digestive diseases and sciences, 48(4), 770-774 (2003-05-14)

For biotherapeutic agents, there is a lack of information on dose-response relationships and mechanism of action. The present study was designed to address these issues for Saccharomyces boulardii using the rat model of castor oil-induced diarrhea. A single dose of

Glutathione preservation during storage of rat lenses in optisol-GS and castor oil.

Thomas Holm et al.

PloS one, 8(11), e79620-e79620 (2013-11-22)

Glutathione concentration in the lens decreases in aging and cataractous lenses, providing a marker for tissue condition. Experimental procedures requiring unfrozen lenses from donor banks rely on transportation in storage medium, affecting lens homeostasis and alterations in glutathione levels. The

Juvenile hormone interacts with multiple factors to modulate aggression and dominance in groups of orphan bumble bee (Bombus terrestris) workers.

Atul Pandey et al.

Hormones and behavior, 117, 104602-104602 (2019-10-28)

Juvenile hormone (JH) is a key regulator of insect development and reproduction. Given that JH commonly affects adult insect fertility, it has been hypothesized to also regulate behaviors such as dominance and aggression that are associated with reproduction. We tested
