Evil University, please read if you are in the science field

I have a project to do, and need some sources of information regarding, glutathione, it is a chemical released my marine organisms, when they are injured.

Anything would be much appreciated, as i hae been looking for a long time. It would seem from my research, that this is a new field of research, possibly something they are doing for their phd students.

As i am only in my first year, soon to be second, i am finding it hard to do.

My project is on, great white sharks, and their responses to the chemical glutathione.

If you havent already:
-try your university library
-search your university library website
-if your university has subscribed to places that provide online biology journals, go there.
-try the internet www.google.com

Try http://www.ucalgary.ca/library/gateway/indabs.html and click "key" beside the biology title. Some of these are unrestricted. Your university might have something like this. These are usually good.

>thinking three years back<

i think i remember a lab where we used glutathione to elicit a feeding response in hydra, but i'm not sure. have you tried biological abstracts?

Thank you very much for your replies.

Ive been looking for four hours a day, for about 1 and a half weeks, in online journals, basically everywhere you can imagine. I think this report, is base on this guys research, which would explain, why nothing is coming up.

Anyways, ive finished my discussion, based on peptide contact between sensory neurons of the olfactory bulb, and chemical stimulus of glutathione, although i had to base my actual findings on information on the detection of chemical scents, rather than glutathione.

Oh well, im only doing this work, because i need to improve 1 mark out of about 10, by 3%. Academic life sucks sometimes, atleast my girlfriend lives next door.
