Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured1

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

    In the ovine corpus luteum, oxytocin was associated with particles that sedimented to a density of 1.054-1.061 g/ml.

    In plain wordsIn sheep corpus luteum tissue, the body's own oxytocin was found in particles of a set density.
