| overview of studies on liver carcinogenesis in english sole from puget sound; evidence for a xenobiotic chemical etiology. ii: biochemical studies. | the levels of aromatic hydrocarbons in sediments of puget sound, washington, are positively correlated with the prevalence of hepatic neoplasms and related lesions in english sole (parophrys vetulus). to investigate the biochemical processes involved in chemical carcinogenesis in fish from puget sound, we have studied the uptake, activation, and detoxication of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) in english sole, and have compared these data to pah metabolism in a related species, starry flo ... | 1990 | 2360039 |
| isolation and characterization of a rhabdovirus from starry flounder (platichthys stellatus) collected from the northern portion of puget sound, washington, usa. | the initial characterization of a rhabdovirus isolated from a single, asymptomatic starry flounder (platichthys stellatus) collected during a viral survey of marine fishes from the northern portion of puget sound, washington, usa, is reported. virions were bullet-shaped and approximately 100 nm long and 50 nm wide, contained a lipid envelope, remained stable for at least 14 days at temperatures ranging from -80 to 5 degrees c and grew optimally at 15 degrees c in cultures of epithelioma papulosu ... | 2004 | 14769907 |
