Yield and centesimal characterization of collagen extracted from the skin of peacock bass Cichla monoculus [PDF]
Fish processing provides waste of around 50.0% to 70.0% of the animal's initial weight, especially the skin. Thus, this residue contains the by-product that allows biopolymers to be obtained, highlighting collagen, which can be widely used in different ...

Immunohistochemical Profile of a Conspicuously Organized Structure in the Dorsal Forebrain of the Peacock Gudgeon, Tateurndina ocellicauda. [PDF]
In the dorsal telencephalon of gobiiform fishes, there is a conspicuously organized structure, consisting of readily identifiable subregions that are surrounded by layers of cell bodies. Using immunohistochemistry against several antigen targets in this structure, we demonstrate that each of these subregions is characterized by its own individual ...
