Cyclic excretion of urinary oestrogens in female tamarins ( Saguinus oedipus )
Abstract
Summary.: Urine was collected from 6 female cotton-top tamarins (Saguinus o. oedipus) and urinary oestrone and oestradiol concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay. Oestrone was excreted at 50-fold higher concentrations than oestradiol. Five females showed patterns of regular oestrone cyclicity, with a mean peak-to-peak oestrone cycle of 23·6 ± 1·2 days. Levels of oestradiol tended to vary with levels of oestrone excretion, but peaks were less pronounced and more variable. The sixth female, diagnosed as having 'wasting marmoset syndrome', had very low levels of excreted oestrogens, suggesting infertility. We suggest that urinary oestrone provides a good index to ovarian cyclicity in female cotton-top tamarins.

“The nonconceptive ovarian cycle lengths reported for marmosets are similar to nonconceptive ovarian cycle lengths reported for other callithrichids [S. oedipus, 23.6 d: French et al., 1983; Cebuella, 27.0 d: Ziegler et al., 1990; S. fuscicollis, 25.7 d: Heistermann & Hodges, 1995].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
