“…Transferrins are generally polymorphic in teleosts (Cr66,Fi70); contributions from two alleles appear to have been revealed by iron- and plutonium-binding characteristics ( Fig. Mean percentage retention measured prior to sacrifice on days 3, 10 and 1'7 was 96, 94 and loo%, respectively, well within the +lo% variation (geometry and counting error) expected in our whole-body counting system.…”

Plutonium-237 distribution and translocation in channel catfish following intracardial injection are basically similar to patterns in mammals after intraveneous administration. Bone and liver are the dominant contributors to the body burden. The fractional body burdens in bone, liver, and kidney 17 days after injection were 31, 24 and 9% of the injected dose, respectively. High kidney burdens relative to mammals are expected since the kidney functions as the major site of hemopoeisis in teleosts. The observation of high concentrations in some ovaries, coupled with apparent polymorphism in plutonium-binding plasma proteins, suggests that some aspects of plutonium transport in blood of lower vertebrates may differ significantly from the mammals. Excretion over the 17-day period was 510%. The absence of significant excretion indicates that a short half-life component of elimination following gut clearance in earlier gavage studies is due to plutonium labeling of the gut.

“…The transferrin polymorphism was largely studied in fishes as a way to identify subpopulations. It has been observed in the eel (Drilhon et al, 1966), hake (Utter, 1969), halibut (Tsuyuki, Robert & Best, 1969), plaice (Ligny, 1966), tunas (Fujino & Kang, 1968), salmon (Moller, 1970;Utter et al, 1970), cod (Moller, 1966), carp (Creysell, Richard & Silberzahn, 1966).…”

117 goosefish plasma from the Mediterranean coast have been analysed. Total plasma proteins gave mean values of 2410.9 for males and 3 . 3~t l . l gjl00 for females. The cellulose acetate and starch-gel electrophoresis showed 7 and 13 fractions respectively. Different albumin patterns were observed but their distribution did not have a genetic basis. In 107 specimens a mean TIBC value of 278*125pg Fe% was found. The saturation coefficient of the transferrin was from 15-20%. The specimens had a single Tf band and one individual had a slower Tf band. The presence of an haptoglobin polymorphism has been suggested. The plasma haptoglobin concentration by an electrophoretic method was determined and a concentration from 28-31 mg Hp% was obtained.
