Chilled Storage of Pressurized Octopus ( Octopus vulgaris ) Muscle

Journal of Food Science, 2001
ABSTRACT: Samples were subjected to continuous and step‐pulsed pressurization, in both cases at 7 and 40 °C. There was a reduction of microbial flora (total viable count and lactic bacteria) after pressurization and during storage at 2.5 to 3.0 °C, chiefly in the lot pressurized by step‐pulse at 400 MPa, 40 °C ...

Vibrio lentus associated with diseased wild octopus (Octopus vulgaris)

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2003
Studies were undertaken to identify the bacteria involved in a disease of wild octopus (Octopus vulgaris). Signs of the disease include round hard lesions in the arms or head mantle, leading, in advanced cases, to the loss of skin and the exposure of the muscle beneath.

Role of olfaction in Octopus vulgaris reproduction

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2015
The olfactory system in any animal is the primary sensory system that responds to chemical stimuli emanating from a distant source. In aquatic animals "Odours" are molecules in solution that guide them to locate food, partners, nesting sites, and dangers to avoid.

Cutaneous Respiration In Octopus Vulgaris

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1996
ABSTRACT The skin of Octopus vulgaris consumes considerable quantities of oxygen in vitro, averaging 4.55×10−5±1.80×10−5 ml mm−2 h−1 (mean ± S.D.), if a flow is maintained over the skin sample (N=32). The consumption is higher still in vivo, 11.36×10−5±2.73×10−5 ml mm−2 h−1 (N=8), suggesting an additional net import of oxygen through the

Personality dimensions in the common octopus (Octopus vulgaris)

Behaviour
Abstract Understanding the origin, universality, and maintenance of among-individual variation in behaviour is a current focus of behavioural ecology and comparative psychology. Research on animal personality emphasising the central role of the individual contributes to conservation efforts and animal welfare by tailoring guidelines and interventions ...

Ferritin in the hepatopancreas of octopus vulgaris Lam.

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1971
Abstract 1. 1. The iron content of the hepatopancreas of Octopus vulgaris Lam. ranges between 0·20 and 0·40 mg/g of fresh tissue. 2. 2. Centrifugation of hepatopancreas homogenates at 30,000 g yielded a supernatant containing approximately 20 per cent of the total iron. 3. 3.

Cornea regeneration in the Pacific giant octopus,Octopus dofleini, and the common octopus,O. vulgaris

Experientia, 1981
Cornea regeneration in a Pacific giant octopus, Octopus dofleini, occurred within 10 days after the injury was observed. Surgical removal of the cornea in a common octopi, O. vulgaris experimentally duplicated this cornea regeneration within a 10-day period. It is, therefore, concluded that besides sucking discs, arms, and nerve fibres, octopi can also

Phospholipids of marine origin. VI. The octopus (Octopus vulgaris)

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1972
AbstractThe composition of octopus (Octopus vulgaris) phospholipids was determined by analysis of hydrolytic breakdown products and by chromatography on silicic acid. The most remarkable feature of octopus phospholipids was the high content (13%) of ceramide aminoethylphosphonic acid.

Morphologic, cytometric and functional characterization of the common octopus (Octopus vulgaris) hemocytes

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2013
The hemocytes of Octopus vulgaris were morphologically and functionally characterized. Light and electron microscopy (TEM and SEM), and flow cytometry analyses revealed the existence of two hemocyte populations. Large granulocytes showed U-shaped nucleus, a mean of 11.6 μm±1.2 in diameter with basophilic granules, polysaccharide and lysosomic deposits ...
