Functional properties of hemoglobins in the teleost Tilapia grahami
(Springer-Verlag, 1975)
The oxygen binding properties ofTilapia grahami hemoglobins have been investigated. The whole blood hemolysate possesses at 35°C a high oxygen affinity (P 50∼ 4.0 mmHg). The O2Hb equilibrium is moderately affected by the ...
Fermentative digestion of food in the colobus monkey, Colobus, polykomos.
(1976-04)
Fermentation of leafy food occurs in the enlarged saccus gastricus of the colobus monkey with the formation of volatile fatty acid, as in the rumen of ruminant animals. About half of the digestible organic matter and ...
Nasal heat exchange in the giraffe and other large mammals.
(North Holland Publishing, 1979-08)
The respiratory air of the giraffe is exhaled at temperatures substantially below body core temperature. As a consequence, the water content of the exhaled air is reduced to levels below that in pulmonary air, resulting ...
Evaporative water loss in two small African antelopes: the dik-dik and the suni
(1976)
1.
1. In controlled laboratory experiments pulmocutaneous water loss, respiratory rate, rectal and skin temperatures of the dik-dik (Rhynchotragus Kirkii) and the suni (Nesotragus moschatus) were measured before and ...
The fine structure of the intestinal epithelium of Tilapia grahami.
(1975)
The ultrastructure of the intestinal epithelium is described in Tilapia grahami. The intestine is divisible into cranial, middle and caudal portions. The cranial intestine is involved in water anp ion transport as well as ...
