Account books of Thomas Cradock, 1786-1818 (inclusive)

Account books listing patients, medicines administered, and fees charged by Dr. Thomas Cradock (1752-1821), primarily in Maryland, from 1786 to 1818. In addition to recording names, Cradock occasionally noted demographic information, the patient's location, or their occupation: from 1813 to 1816, he treated Richard Gent, a free African-American man; in 1813, he attended to John Bell, who lived in the Foggy Bottom neighborhood of Washington, D.C. Cradock further noted if the patient was a slave and the name of his or her owner. He would also administer care on behalf of corporate entities, such as Powhatan Factory, which apparently refused him payment. He also sometimes included a diagnosis: in the cases of a Mr. Rowles and Mrs. Violet West, he administered unspecified medicines for gonorrhea at a cost of ten dollars. Commonly prescribed drugs included emetics, cathartics, and anodynes. Cradock also provided smallpox vaccination for his patients. He accepted both cash and payment-in-kind. Tipped into the first volume is an envelope containing a letter from the Medical and Chirurgical Faculty of Maryland to Mrs. Thomas Craddock in 1899 requesting a loan of portrait of Dr. Thomas Craddock [sic]. The three volumes also each contain an index to patient names.

Escala y talla de primera madurez gonadal en “NAVAJA” Tagelus dombeii (Lamarck, 1818), entre las zonas Parachique - Las Delicias, 2009

Para el estudio de la gametogénesis, escala de madurez y estimación de la talla de primera madurez gonadal de “navaja” Tagelus dombeii, las muestras procedieron de las zonas Caleta de Parachique y Las Delicias, y fueron colectadas a bordo de embarcaciones marisqueras por buzos artesanales, durante Enero – Diciembre del año 2009. La zona para tomar las muestras comprendieron desde los grados 05º 40' 33.3'' (LS) hasta 05º 49' 21.8'' (LS). En el estudio de la gametogénesis, se observó que los ovarios presentaron tres tipos de ovocitos: ovocito inmaduro (OI), ovocito en maduración (OEM) y ovocito maduro (OM), además del ovocito atrésico (OA) para las hembras, mientras que para los machos las células sexuales encontradas fueron: espermatogonio = SG, espermatocito = SC y espermatozoide = SP. La escala microscópica de madurez gonadal para “navaja” T. dombeii fue establecida con seis estadios, siendo estos: Virginal = 0, Reposo = I, En Maduración = II, Maduro =III, Desovante/Expulsante = IV y Recuperación = V. Así mismo, se estableció, que la talla de primera madurez gonadal es de 61 mm de longitud total (LT) para las hembras y 58 mm para machos, obteniendo un promedio de 58 mm LT. Mientras que la talla de primer desove/expulsión fue de: 67 mm (LT) para hembras y 66 mm LT para machos siendo promedio para ambos sexos de 66 mm LT. Además, se reporta la capacidad de T. dombeii de cambiar el sexo de hembra a macho (hermafroditismo protógino).
