Complete tail amputation enhanced the rate of metamorphosis threefold in the late prometamorphic tadpoles of Microhyla ornata and Rana tigrina. By contrast, premetamorphic tadpoles after tail amputation showed no acceleration of metamorphosis; instead, they regenerated their tails. Both these events

## Abstract Newts with bilaterally amputated forelimbs were exposed to either continuous light (LL), total darkness (DD), or continuous light with the dorsal head epithelium painted with an India ink and Nile blue sulfate mixture (LLβIIβNBS) that limited light penetration through the skull to the p
## Abstract Forelimbs of the adult mud frog __Rana rugosa__, when amputated midway through the zeugopodium, regenerate heteromorphically. The resulting regenerative outgrowths were mostly rod shaped and consisted of a cartlaginous core, in which the base was ossified, and muscle elongated distally
The present study showed that insulin (0.01 pg/ml, = 2 nM) inhibited [3H]-thymidine incorporation in support cells, most likely Schwann cells, of the cultured frog sciatic nerve. A 25-35% inhibition took place in regenerating nerve preparations as well as in preparations devoid of neuronal protein s
## Abstract This study aimed to (1) determine if ammonia (as NH~4~Cl) injected intraβperitoneally into the ureogenic slender African lungfish, __Protopterus dolloi__, was excreted directly rather than being converted to urea; (2) examine if injected urea was retained in this lungfish, leading to de
## Abstract An unmodified split/splitless inlet system using forwardβpressure controlled pneumatics was operated in splitless injection mode with several inlet liners under a range of septum purge flow rates. The relative recovery (discrimination) of hydrocarbons ranging from __n__βC~8~ to __n__βC~
