Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2008
Amphibians are a diverse class of animals with a unique life cycle. Intrinsic and extrinsic factors contribute to the wide variability in normal hematologic parameters. Reference values are scarce, and normal hematology of many species is poorly understood.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2000
The treatment of diseases in amphibians presents unique challenges for the clinician. This article describes the basic principles in selecting and administering therapeutics, and provides drug dose rates used successfully in amphibians. The importance of proper husbandary and hygiene, as it relates to amphibian health and medical management of disease,

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2000
This article is an introduction to common amphibian surgical techniques. No overwhelming obstacles preclude incorporating amphibian surgeries into the repertoire of veterinary clinicians. With the proper tools and reference materials and a little practice, the skills needed may be readily acquired.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2004
Spontaneous neoplasia is rare in all three orders of Amphibia. Tumors are documented in most major organ systems, and some have various underlying etiologies, including viral infection, environmental contaminants, and genetic predisposition. Currently,treatment options are limited to removal of the predisposing condition(s), palliative care, surgical ...

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2015
Despite advances in exotic animal endoscopy, descriptions involving amphibians are scarce. Amphibian endoscopy shares some similarities with reptiles, especially in lizards. Selected procedures are discussed, including stomatoscopy, gastroscopy, coelioscopy, and biopsy of coelomic organs and lesions.

Bisalbuminemia in an amphibian
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1985Improved electrophoretic resolution revealed two albumin-like proteins in Taricha granulosa plasma (bisalbuminemia). The Taricha proteins were compared to mammalian, avian and reptilian serum albumins regarding molecular weight, amino acid composition, isoelectric character, solubility and the binding of hemin and dyes.

AN ANATOMICAL ONTOLOGY FOR AMPHIBIANS
Biocomputing 2007, 2006Herein, we describe our ongoing efforts to develop a robust ontology for amphibian anatomy that accommodates the diversity of anatomical structures present in the group. We discuss the design and implementation of the project, current resolutions to issues we have encountered, and future enhancements to the ontology.

General and Comparative Endocrinology
Motilin was first identified as a gastrointestinal (GI) motility-stimulating peptide and was later shown to mediate the gastric migrating motor complexes (MMCs) in several mammals. Motilin and its receptor have also been identified in non-mammalian vertebrates, including birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish.

Gerontology, 2009
Limited research findings up-to-date with a few amphibian models do not permit a generalisation of ageing phenomena in the class Amphibia. Short-lived species of amphibians show gradual senescence comparable to the pattern seen in laboratory mammals. Long-lived species (mostly urodeles) continue to grow throughout life and are believed to exhibit very ...

The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1963
The amphibian pronephric system is reviewed in terms of ontogeny and phylogeny, function, growth, and degeneration. The cassical concept of a derivation from a hypothetical segmental tubular archinephros, and of its nephrotomal origins are well known, and earlier workers have accumulated considerable information about the origin, development, and ...
