Capacity of bottle-nosed dolphins for generalization based on a relative sign
Neuroscience and Behavioral Physiology, 1991Using a new modification of a previously proposed method in the bottle-nosed dolphin, a conditioned reflex was developed and consolidated to a relative spatial sign, namely the choice always of the left out of two identical objects under conditions of constant change of the position of this pair of stimuli against the background of one of the sides of ...

The Bottle-Nosed Dolphin Tursiops truncates: Fatty Acid Composition of Milk Triglycerides
Canadian Journal of Biochemistry, 1971Triglyceride from the milk of the bottle-nosed dolphin Tursiops truncatus has been examined and found to correspond in fatty acid details to the composition of the depot fats of marine mammals generally. No isovaleric or other short-chain acids were present.

Bioacoustic Characteristic Click Sound and Behaviour of Male Dolphins Bottle Nose (Tursiops aduncus)
Journal of Fisheries & Livestock Production, 2016We Dicsuss the problem of bioacoustics research, Bioacoustic is the science that combines biology and acoustics which refers on the production of sound, dispersion and reseption animals and humans. This study using acoustic and behavioral observations of dolphins by using passive acoustic science (bioacoustic) to see the difference pattern of sound ...

Molecular cloning and identification of bottle-nosed dolphin flavocytochrome b gp91 and p22 subunits
Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2000The bottle-nosed dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) gp91(phox) and p22(phox) cDNA were cloned from mitogen stimulated leukocytes RNA utilizing the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The sequences of these cDNAs showed that dolphin gp91(phox) and p22(phox) clones contained open reading frames encoding 569 and 192 amino acids, respectively ...

[Quantitative characteristics of the electrocorticographic sleep stages in bottle-nosed dolphins].
Neirofiziologiia = Neurophysiology, 1989Quantitative analysis of the ECoG stages in four bottle-nosed dolphins has demonstrated that unihemispheric slow-wave sleep is the dominant type of their natural sleep. All the variants of the bilateral and unilateral ECoG synchronization comprise 33.4% of the total recording time, with unilateral slow-wave sleep accounting for 28.8%.

Auditory thresholds of a captive Eastern Pacific bottle-nosed dolphin, Tursiops spp.
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1983The hearing threshold of a bottle-nosed dolphin from the Eastern Pacific was tested using behavioral response techniques. The animal responded to signals ranging from 2 to 135 kHz, but did not respond to higher frequency signals (136-160 kHz) despite repeated trials. The range of greatest sensitivity was between 25 and 70 kHz with peak sensitivities at
