EFFECTIVNESS OF THE GNRH ANALOGUE DESLORELIN AS A REVERSIBLE CONTRACEPTIVE IN A NEOTROPICAL PRIMATE, THE COMMON MARMOSET CALLITHRIX JACCHUS (MAMMALIA: PRIMATES: CALLITRICHIDAE)

Effectivness of the GnRH analogue deslorelin as a reversible contraceptive in a neotropical primate, the Common Marmoset Callithrix Jacchus (Mammalia: Primates: Callitrichidae)

Deslorelin is a synthetic GnRH analogue, which is being used as a contraceptive in animals by acting as a gonadal suppressant.The product Suprelorin (Virbac, Australia) contains deslorelin as a biocompatible, slow release subcutaneous implant.The continuous release of deslorelin provokes a down-regulation of GnRH receptors, and subsequently, inhibi

Roof Reconstruction from Point Clouds using Importance Sampling

We propose a novel fully automatic technique for roof fitting in 3D point clouds based on sequential importance sampling (SIS).Our approach makes no assumption of the nature cards (sparse, dense) or origin (LIDAR, image matching) of the point clouds and further distinguishes, automatically, between different basic roof types based on model selectio
