Zusammenfassung

Haemolymphe Proteine von 10 dekapoden Krebsen aus den Bermudas wurden mit Hilfe der «Starch-Gel»-Elektrophorese untersucht. In acht Arten erwiesen sich die zwei langsamsten Proteinkomponenten als Kupfer-positiv, in zwei Arten wurde nur eine einzige Kupfer-positive Bande ermittelt. Die Esteraseaktivität war mit den meisten Kupfer-positiven Banden verbunden, wobei 10−4 Eserinsulfat keine Hemmung der Aktivität herbeiführte. Diese und weitere Versuche legen die Vermutung nahe, dass bei einigen Crustaceen zwei Molekülarten von Haemocyan vorkommen.
