Peer-Reviewed
Publications

Open access, peer-reviewed publications ensure that knowledge is a public good. HESI believes that accessible research is critical for equitable engagement, diverse collaboration, and increased interdisciplinary conversation. We strive to achieve open access on all publications, and more than 200 publications from HESI programs have been published in the last decade.

The Rodent Estrous Cycle: Characterization of Vaginal Cytology and Its Utility in Toxicological Studies

Birth Defects Research Part B: Developmental and Reproductive Toxicology, 2007

Goldman JM, Murr AS, Cooper RL
  • HESI - Health and Environmental Sciences Institute

While an evaluation of the estrous cycle in laboratory rodents can be a useful measure of the integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian reproductive axis, it can also serve as a way of insuring that animals exhibiting abnormal cycling patterns are disincluded from a study prior to exposure to a test compound.
