## Abstract The earthworm __Lumbricus terrestris__ is ammonotelic while feeding but becomes ureotelic with fasting. The metabolic sources of ammonia nitrogen in feeding worms have been examined. Two deaminating enzymes, L‐serine dehydratase and 5′‐AMP deaminase, have been observed to be present in

## Abstract The toxicity and accumulation of arsenate was determined in the earthworm __Lumbricus terrestris__ in soil from different layers of a forest profile. Toxicity increased fourfold between 2 and 10 d. Edaphic factors (pH, soil organic matter, and depth in soil profile) also affected toxici

The common earthworm (Lumbricus terrestris) is being evaluated in our laboratories as a substitute for mice in metal toxicity studies. These two disparate species have enzymes in common, such as catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione-Stransferase. Also, worms respond similarly to these roden

The relative depuration and uptake kinetics of contaminants should be known to interpret appropriately the use of organisms such as earthworms in environmental bioassays and monitoring. For example, 14-d earthworm bioassays should be interpreted with the knowledge that some contaminants will continu

Intracellular recordings were obtained from growing tips of regenerating giant axons in the lamprey spinal cord, the recording sites verified by Lucifer yellow injection. In the presence of extracellular Ba+ + (3-6 mM), tetraethylammonium (10-15 mM), and 4-aminopyridine (4-6 mM), action potentials s
