We have previously shown that 5Ξ±-pregnane-3,20-dione (5Ξ±-DHP), and 5Ξ±-pregnane-3-ol-20-one (5Ξ±-P-3-OH) are the major luteal and circulating progestins in the African elephant. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determine 1) circulating levels and patterns of secretion of 5Ξ±-DHP in relati
Hydrocarbons were extracted from the surface of the cuticle and from the hemolymph of adult female gypsy moths. GC and GC/MS analysis indicated that the cuticular hydrocarbons with chain lengths >21 carbons were the same as those found in the hemolymph. These consisted of mostly saturated straight c
