Antimicrobial activity in the cuticle of the American lobster, Homarus americanus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2015
American lobster, Homarus americanus, continues to be an ecologically and socioeconomically important species despite a severe decline in catches from Southern New England and Long Island Sound (USA) and a high prevalence of epizootic shell disease in these populations. A better understanding of lobster immune defenses remains necessary.

Distribution of Setae on the Homarus americanus Lateral Antennular Flagellum

The Biological Bulletin, 1998
We focus here on the potential of the lateral flagellum as a "passive" detector of water flow. The well-known flicking of the antennule, with maximum rates of 5 Hz, is thought to subserve chemosensory sampling. Moreover, the flow velocity of 10 cm/s during flicking far exceeds the maximum velocities used in this study.

Sterols of the lobster (Homarus americanus) and the shrimp (Pandalus borealis)

Experientia, 1975
In this study we have analyzed the sterol compositions of two continental shelf species of crustacea, the lobster (Homarus americanus) and the shrimp (Pandalus borealis). Cholesterol was found to be the most abundant sterol in these two species with smaller amounts of desmosterol, 24-methylcholesterol, 24-ethylcholesterol, 24-methylenecholesterol and ...

Disposition of sulfadimethoxine in the lobster (Homarus americanus).

Veterinary and human toxicology, 1989
The long-acting sulfonamide antibacterial, sulfadimethoxine, has the potential for use in pen-held lobsters, Homarus americanus for treatment of gaffkemia. We evaluated the disposition of sulfadimethoxine after intrapericardial, oral or multiple oral administration of unlabelled or radiolabelled sulfadimethoxine (42 mg/kg) to 500 g lobsters ...

Electron microscopy of stomatogastric ganglion in the lobster Homarus americanus

Tissue and Cell, 1971
The stomatogastric ganglion and two of the associated afferent and efferent nerve trunks (stomatogastric and dorsal ventricular nerves) from Homarus americanus have been examined with light and electron microscopy after glutaraldehyde-osmium tetroxide fixation.

BACTERIA INDUCED SHELL DISEASE OF LOBSTERS (Homarus americanus)

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1978
Chitin degrading species of bacteria in the genera Pseudomonas, Vibrio, and Beneckea were cultured from the lesions of lobsters (Homarus americanus) with a shell disease. A species of bacterium of the genus Vibrio (Beneckea) produced necrosis characteristics of shell disease in experimental lobsters when the integument had been damaged prior to ...
