platelet activating factors (agepc) from epidermal secretions of the arabian gulf catfish, arius bilineatus, which stimulate wound healing.	high levels of platelet activating factor (paf) activity were demonstrated by platelet aggregation and serotonin release assays to be present in fright induced epidermal secretions of the arabian gulf catfish, arius bilineatus (valenciennes, 1840). the paf activity was purified by thin-layer chromatography. mass spectral analysis combined with chemical and enzymatic modification of the purified paf and inhibitor studies indicated that paf activity was due to the presence of 1-o-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn ...	1991	2001416
histopathology and contaminant concentrations in fish from kuwait's marine environment.	kuwait has witnessed major socioeconomic and industrial development in recent decades. consequently, a variety of contaminants related to these activities have been discharged directly into the marine environment. this paper describes the application of a histopathology baseline survey in two potential sentinel species, the giant sea catfish (arius thalassinus) and the fourlined terapon (pelates quadrilineatus) to assess the health of biota inhabiting kuwait's marine environment. histological an ...	2015	26209126
