Abstract
Secretions discharged in the water during transport by some individuals of Corydoras sterbai reduce light emission of the bacterium Vibrio fischeri. SDS-PAGE of these secretions and of the isolated axillary-gland shows three identical lanes with molecular masses of approx. 71 000, 26 000 and 21 700 D. This suggests that during stress also secretions of the axillary glands were exuded into the water. The contribution of axillary gland secretions to the bactericidal properties remains to be shown.
