Alanine influx across serosal border of Testudo graeca intestine

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1980
The influx of alanine across the serosal membrane of Testudo graeca intestinal cells with preserved epithelial orientation was examined. Our results suggest that: 1. The mechanism of alanine influx across the serosal membrane of turtle intesintal cells is a carrier-mediated process that has the characteristics of facilitated diffusion. 2.

Chloride transport across the isolated intestinal mucosa of Testudo graeca

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1970
Abstract 1. 1. The mucosa-serosa and serosa-mucosa chloride transports measured in short-circuited adjacent tracts of Greek tortoise jejunal epithelium show a marked inhibition in the presence of DNP 10 −4 M. 2. 2. Both fluxes are significantly increased by the addition of glucose 5·5 × 10 −3 M if the epithelium is previously incubated in a

A microscopic study of the lung of Testudo graeca (Chelonia).

Journal of anatomy, 1990
The lung of the tortoise, Testudo graeca (Chelonia) was studied by means of light and electron microscopy, histochemistry and immunocytochemistry. The lung showed the typical faviform structure of the reptilian lung. Three orders of trabeculae were observed.

On Testudo graeca Linnaeus, 1758 specimens of Mardin Province [Mardin ili Testudo graeca Linnaeus, 1758 Örnekleri Hakkinda]

2003
Twenty-four (16>, 8+) specimens of the Mediterranean spur-thighed tortoise Testudo graeca were examined from Mardin, southeastern Turkey. For morphological comparisons, 15 morphometric characters and 31 ratios developed by combinations of straight carapace length (SCL) and straight carapace width (SCW) were investigated.

Differences in shell morphology of Testudo graeca and Testudo hermanni, based on material from Bulgaria

Amphibia-Reptilia, 2000
Abstract Two tortoises, Testudo graeca ibera Pallas, 1814 and Testudo hermanni boettgeri (Mojsisovics, 1889), inhabit Bulgaria. Certain features normally used for their identification, such as division of the supracaudal scute (divided in T. h. boettgeri; undivided in T. g. ibera), are not absolute.

[Herpesvirus epidemic in Greek (Testudo hermanni) and Moorish land tortoises (Testudo graeca) in Switzerland].

Schweizer Archiv fur Tierheilkunde, 1990
Based on an epidemic in Switzerland, the histopathological findings of a viremic Herpes infection in Spur-tailed and Spur-thighed mediterranean land tortoises are described for the first time. Horizontal viral transmission has been proved; the vertical transmission is suggested. An impression smear of the tongue enables an early clinical diagnosis.
