Limulus polyphemus lectin sites in human bronchial mucosa.

open access: yes, 1977
The lectin from Limulus polyphemus (limulin) has an affinity for glycoproteins containing N-glycolyl or N-acetylneuraminic residues. By using a peroxidase labeled limulin on human bronchial mucosa sections, it has been possible to demonstrate ...

Male horseshoe crabs Limulus polyphemus use multiple sensory cues to locate mates

open access: yesCurrent Zoology, 2010
The use of multisensory cues to locate mates can increase an organism’s success by acting as a back-up plan when one system fails, by providing additional information to the receiver, and by increasing their ability to detect mates using senses that have

Rhythms of Locomotion Expressed by Limulus polyphemus, the American Horseshoe Crab: I. Synchronization by Artificial Tides

open access: yes, 2008
Limulus polyphemus, the American horseshoe crab, has an endogenous clock that drives circatidal rhythms of locomotor activity. In this study, we examined the ability of artificial tides to entrain the locomotor rhythms of Limulus in the laboratory.

LOCALIZATION OFLIMULUS POLYPHEMUSOXYGEN SENSITIVITY

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1973
1. The rate of Limulus opisthosomal gill appendage respiratory movements is proportional to the logarithm of the environmental oxygen concentration. Respiratory movements cease in anaerobic sea water.2. Oxygen introduction into anaerobic sea water elicits movement of the prosomal walking legs as well as the rhythmic gill appendage movements described ...

Effects of blood extraction on horseshoe crabs (Limulus polyphemus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Horseshoe crabs (Limulus polyphemus) are caught by commercial fishermen for use as bait in eel and whelk fisheries (Berkson and Shuster, 1999)—fisheries with an annual economic value of $13 to $17 million (Manion et al.1).
