Erythrocyte metabolism in the bottle-nosed dolphin, Tursiops truncatus

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1969
Abstract 1. 1. Erythrocyte metabolism in the bottle-nosed dolphin and in man are compared and found to be similar in most regards. 2. 2. Erythrocytes of dolphins and man contain similar concentrations of 2,3-diphosphoglyceric acid, ATP and ADP. Dolphin cells contain five times as much DPN and a third as much TPN. 3. 3.

Individualized Whistle Contours in Bottle-nosed Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus)

Nature, 1965
IN 1953, Essapian1 suggested that individual bottle-nosed dolphins, Tursiops truncatus (Montagu), may have distinctive notes which each dolphin can recognize. From his context, in using the word ‘notes’ Essapian referred to the whistle component of Tursiops phonation.

Bottle-Nosed Dolphin: Double-Slit Pupil Yields Equivalent Aerial and Underwater Diurnal Acuity

Science, 1975
In bright daylight, and at best viewing distances, the bottlenosed dolphin resolves visual gratings approximately equally well in air and in water. Aerial resolution improves with increased viewing distance, while underwater resolution improves with decreased viewing distance.

Lobomycosis as a Disease of the Atlantic Bottle-Nosed Dolphin (Tursiops Truncatus Montagu, 1821)

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1975
Skin lesions on an Atlantic bottlenosed dolphin, captured off the coast of Florida, were investigated and found to be histologically and microbiologically indistinguishable from those caused in humans by Loboa loboi. All attempts to isolate the etiologic agent or to transmit the infection to mice and monkeys ended in failure.

Aquatic and aerial vision in the bottle-nosed dolphin

Netherlands Journal of Sea Research, 1972
Abstract In the dolphin Tursiops truncatus (Mont.) under water the whole field of vision of its eye is normal-sighted whereas in air emmetropic vision is restricted to its naso-ventral part. This explains why the animal above water looks at objects which catch its attention with two eyes simultaneously and under water in many cases sidewards with one

Molecular cloning and functional expression of bottle-nosed dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) interleukin-1 receptor antagonist

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2001
The bottle-nosed dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) interleukin-1 receptor antagonist IL-1ra cDNA was cloned from mitogen-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) RNA utilizing the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The sequence of this cDNA showed that dolphin IL-1ra clones contained open reading frames encoding 177 amino ...
