  • Title: Simulation of oviductal ovum transport.
    Author: Portnow J, Hodgson BJ, Talo A.
    Journal: Can J Physiol Pharmacol; 1977 Aug; 55(4):972-4. PubMed ID: 902172.
    Abstract:
    The present note describes a Monte Carlo simulation of ovum transport in the rabbit oviduct. Ova execute a random walk through a one-dimensional oviduct and the jump probabilities at each point are obtained from in vitro electrical recordings of smooth muscle activity. Simulated transport are compared with experimental findings at 18 and 66-68 h after human chorionic gonadotropin injection.
