En el presente trabajo se analizan desde un punto de vista metateórico los modelos animales y su uso en la investigación en el ámbito de las ciencias de la vida. A partir de la evaluación de una nutrida literatura científica ...
Estimating dyad association probability under imperfect and heterogeneous detection
(Elsevier Science, 2011-08)
In animal behaviour studies, association indices estimate the proportion of time two individuals (i.e. a dyad) spend in association. In terms of dyads, all association indices can be interpreted as estimators of the ...

Background: To examine the presence of diabetic retinopathy in a female rat model of type 2 diabetes fed on a high-fat diet (HFD). Methods: Wistar rats were injected with streptozotocin (STZ) at the age of two days and fed ...
New model of pharmacoresistant seizures induced by 3-mercaptopropionic acid in mice
(Elsevier Science, 2017-01)
About 30% of the patients with epilepsy do not respond to clinically established anticonvulsants, despite having effective concentrations of the antiepileptic drug in plasma. Therefore, new preclinical models of epilepsy ...
