The dogfish shark (Squalus acanthias) was the first shark species studied since it was accessible for research purposes at the Mount Desert Marine Biological Laboratory. In addition, large numbers of dogfish are harvested annually for consumption [ 2 ] and could provide sufficient tissue for extraction during the early stages of compound ...
