PROPOFOL ANESTHESIA IN LOGGERHEAD (CARETTA CARETTA) SEA TURTLES [PDF]
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2008 Rapid, safe, and effective methods of anesthetic induction and recovery are needed for sea turtles, especially in cases eligible for immediate release. This study demonstrates that intravenous propofol provides a rapid induction of anesthesia in loggerhead (Caretta caretta) sea turtles and results in rapid recovery, allowing safe return to water ...

Animal models of depression: olfactory lesions affect amygdala, subventricular zone, and aggression
Neurobiology of Disease, 2004 Psychiatric or depressed patients show alterations in both olfactory projection areas and mucosa. In rodents, ablation of olfactory bulbs causes a depression-like syndrome, useful to test antidepressant agents.

Incidental catch of loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) along the Sicilian coasts by longline fishery [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 It has been estimated that 44,000 Caretta caretta turtles die every year due to anthropomorphic activity in the Mediterranean Sea, and that longline fishing is one of the most significant causes of mortality. A total of 482 specimens of C.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023 The levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, PAHs, were determined in the liver and salt gland of 19 loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta Linnaeus, Cheloniidae) stranded along the coasts of the south Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy, from 2019 to 2021. The 16 EPA’
