To investigate factors contributing to immediate mortality in gill-net-caught elasmobranchs, we caught and blood sampled a total of 64 sharks and rays. Blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus) were the most commonly caught species and had significantly elevated plasma lactate (mean 23.3 mM) and potassium (mean 6.2 mM) concentrations following ...

Efferent branchial arterial ring preparations from the Blacktip reef shark, Carcharhinus melanopterus, were used to investigate the tissue reactivity to a range of pharmacological agents. The arterial responses elicited by adrenaline and noradrenaline were somewhat variable.

In many fish and reptiles, gastric digestion is responsible for the complete breakdown of prey items into semi-liquid chyme. The responses of the stomach to feeding and to periods of fasting are, however, unknown for many lower vertebrates. We inserted data loggers into the stomachs of free-swimming captive adult blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus ...

ABSTRACT From May 2016 until December 2018, a group of blacktip reef sharks ( Carcharhinus melanopterus ) at Shedd Aquarium successfully produced six litters. These multiple successful breeding events provided the opportunity to develop and characterize microsatellite loci ...

In the last decades sharks and their population dynamics are increasingly studied because of their importance for the ecosystems and their high sensitivity to overfishing and anthropological activities, due to their long gestation period, slow reproducing rate, slow growth, and high level of maternal investment (Dulvy et al., 2014).
