Mammalian Osteoderm Ultrastructure in the Armored Acomys Spiny Mouse Tail
Small, Volume 22, Issue 40, 17 July 2026.The ultrastructure of armored platelets – termed osteoderms – in the tail skin of Acomys cahirinus spiny mice is characterized using 2D and 3D microscopy methods. The imbricated structure is composed of calcium phosphate biomineral and has select structural elements that are bone‐like and tooth‐like in nature.

Shifty Frogs: Evidence of Iridescence Among Amphibians
Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Iridescence is a striking optical phenomenon observed in some animals whereby colour or reflectivity changes based on viewing angle, such that two observers in different locations may simultaneously perceive the same tissue differently. Among amphibians, there is limited photographic evidence of tissues displaying colour shifts that define ...

Flash-induced electrogenic reactions in the SA(L223) reaction center mutant in Rhodobacter sphaeroides chromatophores [PDF]
, 1994 The charge transfer events in the SA(L223) reaction center mutant Rhodobacter sphaeroides chromatophores were investigated by direct electrometry. Besides the primary charge separation, the small stigmatellin-sensitive electrogenic reaction due to the ...

Effects of Chlorpromazine on the Chromatophores of Frog Skin [PDF]
, 1972 Using the conventional in vitro frog skin bioassay technique, it has been shown that chlorpromazine can have a direct as well as an indirect effect on frog dermal chromatophores and that chlorpromazine darkened skin loses its ability to react either by ...
