metabolism and defluorination of fluoroacetate in the brush-tailed possum (trichosurus vulpecula).	the brush-tailed possum (t. vulpecula) from western australia was found to be nearly 150 times more resistant to fluoroacetate intoxication in vivo than the same species from south australia. acetone powder preparations from the liver of animals from both populations showed similar abilities to convert fluoroacetate into fluorocitrate. aconitate hydratase activity in liver preparations from both western australian and south australian animals was similarly and competitively inhibited by fluoroci ...	1979	485974
parasites and serological survey of the common brushtail possum (trichosurus vulpecula) from kangaroo island, south australia.		1986	3503151
a light-microscopic immunocytochemical study of the endocrine pancreas in the australian fat-tailed dunnart (sminthopsis crassicaudata).	the endocrine pancreas of the australian fat-tailed dunnart (sminthopsis crassicaudata) was investigated by means of immunocytochemistry using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase technique. this was a light microscopic study using this established technique and has not been previously investigated. serial paraffin sections were stained individually with primary antibodies for anti-porcine glucagon, anti-beef pork insulin, anti-human somatostatin, and anti-avian pancreatic polypeptide (app), anti-bovine ...	1992	1352914
characterisation of the kappa light chain of the brushtail possum (trichosurus vulpecula).	two full length cdna sequences encoding the kappa light chain of the australian marsupial, trichosurus vulpecula, the brushtail possum, were isolated from a mesenteric lymph node cdna library. the constant regions (ckappa) of the two light chains were identical, but the variable (vkappa) and joining (jkappa) regions were different. at the amino acid level, possum ckappa was most similar to ckappa of an american marsupial, monodelphis domestica (75%), with similarity to eutherian ckappa ranging f ...	2001	11292532
