...Markus K. Phlippen; Simon G. Webster; J. Sook Chung; Heinrich Dircksen ABSTRACT On the basis of detailed analyses of morphological characteristics and behavioural events associated with ecdysis in a crab ( Carcinus maenas ) and a crayfish ( Orconectes limosus ), a comprehensive substaging system...

...Robert K. Josephson; Darrell R. Stokes ABSTRACT Active shortening of respiratory muscle L2B from the crab Carcinus maenas results in contractile deactivation, seen as (1) a decline of force during the course of isovelocity shortening, (2) a reduction in the rate of force redevelopment following...

...Robert K. Josephson; Darrell R. Stokes ABSTRACT Muscle force during active lengthening was characterized for scaphognathite levator muscle L2B from the crab Carcinus maenas . The muscle was tetanically stimulated and, during the peak of the contraction, stretched at constant velocity. The total...

...R. A. Dicaprio; G. Jordan; T. Hampton ABSTRACT The central pattern generator responsible for the gill ventilation rhythm in the shore crab Carcinus maenas can produce a functional motor pattern over a large (eightfold) range of cycle frequencies. One way to continue to generate a functional motor...

... already obtained for the shore crab Carcinus maenas as this species is probably the animal on which most work has been carried out. We suggest topics for future work on this species and review the possibility of using AWP in C. maenas as a biomarker of metal exposure. * e-mail: adr@virgil.ruc.dk...

... processor, PCM). The extensor muscle from the meropodite of walking legs of the shore crab Carcinus maenas (L.) was used in this study. Fibres from this muscle respond to electrical stimulation with a small graded depolarisation and phasic and tonic contraction components ( Mounier and Vassort, 1975...
