Embryonic and early postnatal cranial bone volume and tissue mineral density values for C57BL/6J laboratory mice
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Developmental Dynamics"
DOI: 10.1002/dvdy.458
Abstract: Laboratory mice are routinely used in craniofacial research based on the relatively close genetic relationship and conservation of developmental pathways between humans and mice. Since genetic perturbations and disease states may have localized effects, data… read more here.

DOI: 10.1121/1.4988128
Abstract: Mice produce spectrotemporally complex ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs), thought to be important for social interactions such as mating. Previous research has established that mice are capable of detecting and discriminating natural, synthetic, and altered USVs using… read more here.

The acoustic startle reflex as a tool for assessment of odor environment effects on affective states in laboratory mice.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Experimental animals"
DOI: 10.1538/expanim.20-0111
Abstract: Apart from self and conspecific odors, odors from other species also influence the affective states in laboratory mice (Musmusculus musculus) in their home cages and during experimental procedures, possibly inducing confusion and inconsistency in experimental… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2017.00152
Abstract: Whether mice are an appropriate model for S. aureus infection and vaccination studies is a matter of debate, because they are not considered as natural hosts of S. aureus. We previously identified a mouse-adapted S.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2022.834478
Abstract: Millions of mice are used annually in scientific research and must be humanely killed. Despite significant welfare concerns, carbon dioxide exposure remains the most common killing method, primarily because there is no practical and humane… read more here.
