Cuticular plasticization in the tick, Amblyomma hebraeum (Acari: Ixodidae): possible roles of monoamines and cuticular pH

W. Reuben Kaufman, Peter C. Flynn, Stuart E. Reynolds
Journal: Journal of Experimental Biology
J Exp Biol (2010) 213 (16): 2820–2831.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.044412
Published: 15 August 2010
...W. Reuben Kaufman; Peter C. Flynn; Stuart E. Reynolds SUMMARY The degree of plasticization of the alloscutal cuticle of a ‘hard’ (ixodid) tick, Amblyomma hebraeum , and a ‘soft’ (argasid) tick, Ornithodoros moubata , was assessed throughout the blood-feeding period. Cuticle viscosity was calculated...

Neural Involvement in the Control of Salivary Gland Degeneration in the Ixodid Tick Amblyomma Hebraeum

Robert A. Harris, William R. Kaufman
Journal: Journal of Experimental Biology
J Exp Biol (1984) 109 (1): 281–290.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.109.1.281
Published: 1 March 1984
...Robert A. Harris; William R. Kaufman ABSTRACT We have developed a simple, quantitative assay to monitor salivary gland function in ixodid ticks. Salivary glands of engorged (l·0–3·0 g), or partially engorged (0·40–1·0 g), Amblyomma hebraeum Koch lose virtually all secretory function within 4 days...
