Dog breeders often suggest it is appropriate for handlers to attempt to calm the mating dogs if they show anxiety once this stage is reached. After mating, the male usually licks his penis and prepuce.
Vaginal cytology is a microscopic examination of cells from the vaginal epithelium.In veterinary medicine, it helps differentiate the stages of the mammalian estrous cycle because the vaginal epithelium changes in response to sex hormone levels; practically, it is used to distinguish when a female canine is at a particular point in the estrous cycle.

Then in 1883, Max Bockhart proved conclusively that the bacterium isolated by Albert Neisser was the causative agent of the disease known as gonorrhea by inoculating the penis of a healthy man with the bacteria. [9] The man developed the classic symptoms of gonorrhea days after, satisfying the last of Koch's postulates. Until this point ...
Neisseria cinerea can produce acid from glucose like N. gonorrhoeae, but it will then oxidize the acid to carbon dioxide. [2] Although it can break down glucose, it is unable to use glucose or other carbohydrates for energy, making it asaccharolytic. [1]

Pap stain Phase contrast microscopy of clue cells in a vaginal swab. Clue cells are epithelial cells of the vagina that get their distinctive stippled appearance by being covered with bacteria ...
Super-gonorrhea sounds scary. How concerned should people in the U.S. be? Antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea is rare in the U.S., but El Sahly says it’s still important to take it seriously.
It has been easy to test for the presence of gonorrhea by viewing a Gram stain of the urethral discharge under a microscope: The causative organism is distinctive in appearance; however, this works only with men because other non-pathogenic gram-negative microbes are present as normal flora of the vagina in women. Thus, one of the major causes ...
Primordial follicle initiation and development varies by species; in the canine primordial follicle formation occurs 17–54 days post birth. At 17 days, primordial follicles, each of consists of a small oocyte (with no zona pellucida) and a single layer of flattened pre-granulosa cells, can first be observed in the cortical layer of the ovary.
