    Dataset

    Description

    Seals accumulate large amount of fat in the subcutaneous adipose tissue, which undergoes massive changes during their breeding season. Morphometric data was collected from pups at early suckling, late suckling and early weaning.

    The data were collected as part of the PhD project "Characterising fat tissue structure and function in response to hypoxia in grey seals, an animal model of extreme fat deposition and mobilisation, using novel in vivo and in vitro approaches".

    This dataset is currently embargoed.
