The lactating sow milked mechanically has been used for the study of the hormones of the posterior pituitary gland. The van Dyke protein and du Vigneaud's high potency posterior lobe oxytocic polypeptide have been shown to possess milk-ejecting activity equivalent to their oxytocic activity. Commercial pressor preparations and du Vigneaud's highly purified vasopressin have milk-ejecting activity corresponding to a given pressor activity which is equivalent to one-fifth of the same number of oxytocic units.
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
