The effects of estrous cycle on reproductive hormone level / Masliza Md Ali

Research work was aimed at improving vaginal smear technique for visualizing and recognizing cells types present during estrous cycle phase of female Wistar Kyoto rat (WKY) and to confirm that the reproductive hormones in those rats are influenced by phases of estrous cycle. Results showed staining...
