(n.) A genus of marine shells; the ear-shells. See Abalone.
Example Sentences:
(1) Arylsulfatases, partially purified from the hepatopancreas of the red abalone, Haliotis rufescens, were investigated with respect to heterogeneity, catalytic requirements, and timing of induction during development.
(2) The disposition and biotransformation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) in the red abalone (Haliotis rufescens) have been determined.
(3) Purified preparations of alginate lyase from Klebsiella aerogenes and Haliotis sp.
(4) Larvae of the red abalone, Haliotis rufescens, rely on external chemical cues to trigger metamorphosis; thus, the timing of metamorphosis is dependent upon the larva's chance encounter with the appropriate substrate.
(5) Spermatozoa of abalone Haliotis discus were examined before and during the acrosome reaction with special regard to one of the newly formed structures: a cylindrical structure surrounding a part of the elongated acrosomal process near the opening of the acrosomal vesicle.
(6) Tauropine dehydrogenase (tauropine:NAD oxidoreductase) was purified from the shell adductor muscle of the ormer, Haliotis lamellosa.
(7) Two proteins of molecular weights 20,000 (20K) and 15,500 (15.5K) are the major soluble substances released from the acrosomal vesicle of the abalone, Haliotis discus, spermatozoon.
(8) The liquid from heat-treatment of an abalone, Haliotis discus hannai, which is normally discarded as waste, was found to contain a new glycoprotein antineoplastic agent.
(9) This enzyme was sufficiently purified from the shell adductor muscle of the ormer, Haliotis lamellosa, by a single-step isolation procedure on an ion-exchange column.
(10) Surface probe localized 31P NMR spectroscopy was employed to record the metabolic responses of the foot of intact Haliotis cracherodii and H. rufescens (black and red abalones) under hyper- and hypoosmotic stresses.
(11) Spermatozoa of the California red abalone (Haliotis rufescens; Phylum Mollusca, order Archeogastropoda) possess an acrosomal protein that dissolves the egg vitelline layer during fertilization.
(12) Larvae of the gastropod mollusc Haliotis rufescens are induced to settle from the plankton and metamorphose in response to exogenous gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and a number of GABA-mimetic compounds, including a GABA-mimetic inducer uniquely associated with the surfaces of the naturally recruiting algae.
(13) Midgut glands of abalone Haliotis discus contained two acid phosphatases [orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (acid optimum), EC 3.1.3.2] separable by phosphocellulose column chromatography.
(14) The sublethal biochemical effects of pentachlorophenol (PCP) were investigated in live, intact red abalones (Haliotis rufescens), using a flow-through exposure system, by in vivo 31P NMR spectroscopy.
