title: ESTROUS SYNCHRONY IN MICE: ALTERATION BY EXPOSURE  TO MALE URINE.
abstract: Exposure of grouped, virgin female laboratory mice to urine from male mice for 2 days prior to pairing significantly altered the expected pattern of estrous synchrony. A higher proportion of mice exposed to male urine attained estrus during the 2 days after pairing than did mice exposed to female urine or control mice.
