Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1981
Abstract The purification of thyrotropin from the pituitaries of two species of turtles was followed using a bioassay based on the uptake of radioiodide by the thyroid of the baby slider turtle, Pseudemys scripta . Conventional chromatographic techniques which had previously resulted in the separation of pituitary gonadotropins were used initially ...
