A scanning and transmission electron microscopic study of the lung of a caecilian Boulengerula taitanus
(University of Nairobi, 2009-03)
The lung of an apodan amphibian Bouiengerula taitanus has been investigated by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. This caecilian has only a single, long tubular lung that tapers towards the caudal end of the ...
The Morphometry of the Lung of the African Lungfish (Protopterus aethiopicus): Its Structural--Functional Correlations
(1985)
The lung of the African lungfish Protopterus aethiopicus has been investigated by morphometric techniques. The volume of the lung was strongly correlated with body mass. The exchange tissue made up about 50% of the lung. ...
Ultrastructural characterization of the pulmonary cellular defences in the lung of a bird, the rock dove, Columba livia
(1998)
Free (surface) avian respiratory macrophages (FARMs) were harvested by lavage of the lung/air–sac system of the rock dove, Columba livia. The presence of FARMs in the atria and infundibula was confirmed by scanning electron ...
A scanning and transmission electron microscopic study of the bat lung
(Wiley, 1985)
The lungs of two adult species of bat Epomophorus wahlbergi and Miniopterus minor fixed with 2.3% glutaraldehyde were processed for SEM (scanning electron microscope) and TEM (transmission electron microscope) examination ...
Structure and Function of the Axillary Organ of the Gulf Toadfish, Opsanus beta (Goode and Bean)
(ScienceDirect, 1998)
The structure of the axillary organ of a batrachoidid species, the gulf toadfish (Opsanus beta Goode and Bean 1879), has been examined and several simple experiments designed to elucidate its function performed. Electron ...
A clinical trial of buparvaquone in the treatment of East Coast fever
(British Veterinary Association, 1992)
A clinical trial was conducted to test buparvaquone (Butalex; Coopers Pitman-Moore) in the treatment of East Coast fever under field conditions in Kenya. Data from 229 cases were analysed following treatment with one (69), ...
Morphology and morphometry of the normal lung of the adult vervet monkey (Cercopithecus aethiops)
(Wiley, 1988)
The lungs of four adult specimens of the vervet monkey (Cercopithecus aethiops) have been examined by transmission and scanning electron microscopy. A morphometric evaluation of the structural components directly involved ...
