Lactate dehydrogenase of Mugil sp. (Mugilidae, Perciformes). Lack of electrokinetic, thermostability and kinetic differences among individuals with different number of scales

The scale number in lateral sets (SNS) of Mugil sp. (Mugilidae, Perciformes) collected in the lagoon-estuarine region of Cananéia, State of São Paulo ranges from 33 to 39. Electrokinetic, kinetic and thermostability properties of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were tested to determine if individuals wi...

Electrokinetic, kinetic and thermostability properties of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were tested to determine if individuals with different SNS correspond to different species or populations of mullet.
