N-acetyltransferase and melatonin levels in the optic lobe of giant freshwater prawns, Macrobrachium rosenbergii de man
1. 1. N-Acetyltransferase (NAT), and melatonin were determined at 3-hour intervals in the optic lobe of the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii de Man. 2. 2. A relatively high activity of NAT, compared to that in rat pineal, was found in the tissue. The enzyme did not show a significan...
