Neurotransmitters in the intestine of the atlantic cod, Gadus morhua

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Comparative Pharmacology, 1985
The effects of the putative neurotransmitters acetylcholine, adrenaline, adenosine, ATP, bombesin, 5-hydroxytryptamine, met-enkephalin, neurotensin, somatostatin, substance P and VIP have been investigated in the perfused intestine of the cod, Gadus morhua.

Nanostructures of the aragonitic otolith of cod (Gadus morhua)

Micron, 2008
Topographical relationships between the mineral and organic components are important to understand the process involved in biomineralisation. We examined nanostructural features of cod (Gadus morhua) otoliths using atomic force microscope (AFM). Acicular aragonitic fibres that form primary increments observed in scanning electron or light microscopy ...

Lipid digestion in cod (gadus morhua)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1987
Abstract 1. 1. Cod, 2.6–3.4 kg. were fed a mixed diet of sprat, capelin oil and wheat flour. 2. 2. Lipids from the feed, stomach and four intestinal segments were separated into tri-, di- and monoglycerides and free fatty acids and analysed by GLC. 3. 3.

Effect of selenite on the uptake of methylmercury in cod (Gadus morhua)

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1985
A protecting role of selenite against the toxic effects of different mercury compounds is well documented. The organ distribution and retention of inorganic mercury as well as of methylmercury seem to be influenced by a high selenium status. Mercury is characteristically present in the aquatic environment and follows the food chain.

Multidimensionality of behavioural phenotypes in Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua

Physiology & Behavior, 2012
Much of the inter-individual variation observed in animal behaviour is now attributed to the existence of behavioural phenotypes or animal personalities. Such phenotypes may be fundamental to fisheries and aquaculture, yet there have been few detailed studies of this phenomenon in exploited marine animals.

Erythrocyte Lipids of Atlantic Cod, Gadus morhua

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry, 1971
Erythrocytes from mature male cod, which had been starved for 1 week, contained 16.5 × 10−13 g lipid per cell, about 75% of which was phospholipid. Cholesterol represented about 11%, triglycerides 5%, free fatty acids 4%, and sterol esters 2% of the total lipid.

Autonomic innervation of the ovary of the Atlantic cod,Gadus morhua

Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, 1989
The autonomic innervation of the ovary of the Atlantic cod was investigated using histochemical and physiological/pharmacological methods. The paired ovary receives autonomic innervation via branches of the posterior splanchnic nerve (vesicular nerve).Histochemical studies demonstrated vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-immunoreactive, 5 ...

Gill O2 consumption in a teleost fish, Gadus morhua

Respiration Physiology, 1981
Stimulated by the many physiological functions of fish gills this study reports on perfusion studies of gill arches and head preparations from the Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, with the objective of determining the oxygen requirement of gill tissues in situ. An additional objective was to assess what fraction of the gill tissue O2 consumption is taken up

Adrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the spleen of the COD: Gadus morhua

European Journal of Pharmacology, 1974
Injections of catecholamines into the splenic artery constricted the cod spleen when perfused in situ at constant pressure. The doses of amines producing 50% of the maximal effect were as follows (mean ± S.E.M.): adrenaline 1.3 ± 0.3 nmoles; noradrenaline 6.3 ± 1.1 nmoles; phenylephrine 10.0 ± 2.3 nmoles; isoprenaline > 10 μmoles. The findings indicate

Click sounds produced by cod (Gadus morhua)

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2004
Conspicuous sonic click sounds were recorded in the presence of cod (Gadus morhua), together with either harp seals (Pagophilus groenlandicus), hooded seals (Cystophora cristata) or a human diver in a pool. Similar sounds were never recorded in the presence of salmon (Salmo salar) together with either seal species, or from either seal or fish species ...
