Summary of vaginal epithelial measurements throughout the menstrual cycle of sixteen pigtail macaques, ordered by day of menstrual cycle. The table provides mean values from all measurements at each biopsy occasion, with standard deviations (SD). Thirty biopsy results are shown; two additional biopsies were not usable. Each line summarizes results from one animal (ID=identification number), at one time point. “Epithelium” refers to the sum of mean nucleated and non-nucleated layers, measured in micrometers (um), from 11 – 445 measurements (last column), depending on the size of the harvested tissues.
