title: Determination by HPLC of adrenalin (E) and of noradrenalin (NE) in certain species of mesopelagic fish in the Strait of Messina.
abstract: The presence of adrenalin (E) and noradrenalin (NE) was found by HPLC both in the photophores and at other tissue levels of numerous species of mesopelagic fish in The Strait of Messina, with the aim of determining the incidence of these catecholamines in photophores, in light transmission and the eventual presence at other tissue levels.
