The Digestive Tract of Cephalopods: Toward Non-invasive In vivo Monitoring of Its Physiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Ensuring the health and welfare of animals in research is paramount, and the normal functioning of the digestive tract is essential for both. Here we critically assess non- or minimally-invasive techniques which may be used to assess a cephalopod's ...

Considering the cephalopod [PDF]

open access: yesLab Animal, 2018
Octopuses, squids, and cuttlefishes all have potential as lab animals. As models emerge, what goes in to keeping them happy and healthy in the lab?

Functional morphology of cephalopod gills [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
There is a wealth of literature dealing with fish gills (Review, see Hoar & Randall, 1984), yet hardly anything is known about the gills of cephalopods. This is rather surprising considering the commercial importance of the cephalopods.

Cephalopod dynamic camouflage [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2007
Everyone knows what camouflage is and how it works. And many people (some scientists included) think chameleons are the masters of color change. Wrong on both counts. In this primer, I provide an overview of recent work on the mechanisms and principles of rapid adaptive camouflage of cephalopods — octopus, cuttlefish and squids.

Bio‐Inspired Magnetically Tunable Structural Colors from Elliptical Self‐Assembled Block Copolymer Microparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cephalopod‐inspired photonic microparticles with dynamic structural coloration are fabricated via confined self‐assembly of linear block copolymers into ellipsoids containing stacked lamellae. Embedded superparamagnetic nanoparticles enable rapid magnetic alignment, restoring vivid, angle‐dependent color.

Cephalopod Resources of Venezuela [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The cephalopod resources of Venezuela are reviewed, based on previous literature and observations from commercial catches. The history of the squid and octopus fishery in the major fishing grounds is presented along with information on the catches and ...

The pupillary response of cephalopods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This paper provides the first detailed description of the time courses of light-evoked pupillary constriction for two species of cephalopods, Sepia officinalis (a cuttlefish) and Eledone cirrhosa (an octopus).

Phospholipids in Mediterranean Cephalopods

open access: yesZeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 2000
Abstract Polar lipids of the cephalopods Eledone moschata, Sepia officinalis and Todarodes sagittatus mantle, represent 50.5%, 66.1% and 74.2% of wet tissue respectively. On the other hand the polar lipids of these three species of cephalopods constitute of 80.8%, 94.8% and 93.7% of phospholipids, respectively.

The Cuttlebone Blueprint for Multifunctional Metamaterials: Design Taxonomy, Functional Decoupling, and Future Horizons

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cuttlebone‐inspired metamaterials exploit a septum‐wall architecture to achieve excellent mechanical and functional properties. This review classifies existing designs into direct biomimetic, honeycomb‐type, and strut‐type architectures, summarizes governing design principles, and presents a decoupled design framework for interpreting multiphysical ...

Relationship of Cephalopods Orders Based on Morphological Characters

open access: yesJurnal Kelautan Tropis, 2022
Biodiversity is vital in our daily life. As a maritime country, Indonesian waters harbor many valuable animals such as Cephalopoda. Indonesian waters are rich in various species of cephalopods. Several previous studies on Indonesian cephalopods have been
