Data available on the role of the opioid systems of the naked mole-rat in nociception is scanty and unique compared to that of other rodents. In the current study, the effect of DAMGO, DPDPE and U-50488 and U-69593 on formalin-induced (20 microl, 10%

The oxygen binding properties ofTilapia grahami hemoglobins have been investigated. The whole blood hemolysate possesses at 35°C a high oxygen affinity (P 50∼ 4.0 mmHg). The O2Hb equilibrium is moderately affected by the ionic strenght chloride co

1. 1. Carabid beetles have rates of transpiratory water loss and metabolic rates which are higher than those of tenebrionid beetles. Within each family, dry habitat beetles have lower rates of water loss than beetles from mesic or hygric habitats, bu

Specimens of the African air-breathing catfish Clarias mossambicus were acclimated to either aerated (15·3KPa) or hypoxic ( 2·4KPa) water for up to 27 days at 20 °C. Routine respiration rate for fish acclimated to aerated water was 85·7 mlO2 (kg

The rates of water loss and humidity preference of carabids from dry tropical habitats have been studied and compared with corresponding data from temperate carabids and tropical tenebrionids. Within each group of beetles the rate of relative water l

East African tenebrionid beetles of the species Zophosis congesta are active on sun-exposed surfaces in dry habitats during the hottest part of the day, when most other animals have retreated to protected areas. They remain on the surface at ambient

We describe a simple and reproducible procedure for measuring maximal O2 consumption (Vo2max) that can be used for mammals spanning a wide range of body mass (Mb). Vo2 of trained animals was measured as a function of speed while they ran on a treadmi

1. 1. When tenebrionid beetles of the species Phrynocolus petrosus undergo evaporative dehydration, the relative water content changes less than is predictable from the water loss alone. The discrepancy from the predictable change is apparently due t

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the maximal rate of oxygen consumption (Vo2max) is scaled proportionally to Mb1.0, as the diffusing capacity of the lung, or proportionally to Mb0.75, as the standardized resting rate of oxygen consu

Respiratory properties of whole blood and Hb solutions have been studied in Heterocephalus glaber, a fossorial rodent, having a low body temperature (30.0-32.0 degrees C) and poor thermoregulatory ability. For comparison similar, measurements were ma
