Colloidal structure and proton conductivity of the gel within the electrosensory organs of cartilaginous fishes

Summary: Cartilaginous fishes possess gel-filled tubular sensory organs called Ampullae of Lorenzini (AoL) that are used to detect electric fields. Although recent studies have identified various components of AoL gel, it has remained unclear how the molecules are structurally arranged and how their...
