DOWNLOAD EBOOKDuring the past two years the principal research under the contract has been directed toward several problems: (1) A continued study of the ultrastructure of the venom apparatus of the stingrays Urobatis halleri and Dasytis sabina, and the scorpionfish Scorpaena Guttata, (2) determination of certain physiopharmacologic changes provoked by the venom of the scorpionfishes, (3) the histology and ultrastructure of skin from the soapfishes, Grammistidae. With respect to current studies on the ultrastructure of the stingray venom apparatus, these have confirmed our earlier observations that the subunit distribution in stingray venom cell microtubules varies considerably within a single vacuole, in marked contrast to the tubulin polymers described as convential cytoplasmic microtubules. The improvement in the methods they developed aided in the definition of these structures in tin sections and permits a more precise estimate of their diameter. While diameters are variable, they are substantially less than estimates for other intracellular microtubules. The chemistry of these microtubules has yet to be determined but by their anomalous location and fine structure it is suggested that they are polymers of non-tubulin protein(s).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExperimental Marine Biology consists of eight chapters dealing with the various disciplines of marine biology. This book aims to give insights into the problems and perspectives of each discipline, as well as point out new directions which research endeavors might most profitably follow. This reference material starts with the basic topic about aquarium technique, specifically closed-system marine aquariums. This book then presents field experiments in marine ecology and describes marine organisms' behavior, physiology, endocrinology, biochemistry, and toxicology. The development in marine organisms is also discussed. This work will be valuable to both interested students and experienced researchers in this field.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe research involved the pharmacological and chemical investigation of the venoms of a number of marine animals. The work was initiated with a study of three fishes of the scorpionfish family: Synanceja horrida and Synanceja verruosa ('stonefish'), Pterois volitans ('lionfish, ' 'zebrafish, ' 'turkeyfish'), and Scorpaena guttata ('California scorpionfish'). Studies were initiated on the venoms of several species o mollusks of the genus Conus, which have been responsible for envenomations in humans. Preliminary investigations were made on the venoms of some other marine animals, including several coelenterates found in California.
