My unsuspecting German shepherd mix, Daisy, helped me test out four different dog DNA kits to find the best one. All instructions were followed closely, with the exception of required swabbing ...
Rodents have been employed in biomedical experimentation from the 1650s.

As suspected, the specificity of the rectal examination is high due to the low prevalence of disease. However, the sensitivity of the rectovaginal examination is very low, limiting its capacity as a screening test. Both sensitivity and positive predictive value of the rectovaginal examination for detecting uterosacral nodularity were zero. [5]
