Dystrophic neurites and activated microglia are one of the main neuropathological characteristics of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although the use of supplements with omega-3 fatty acids has been associated with reduced risk and lessened AD pathology, it still remains elusive whether such a treatment could ...
Abstract Airguns used for offshore seismic exploration by the oil and gas industry contribute to globally increasing anthropogenic noise levels in the marine environment. There is concern that the omnidirectional, high intensity sound pulses created by airguns may alter fish physiology and behaviour. ...
A liquid-ingress control device, comprising a casing having an interior and an exterior, and optionally a liquid-activated trigger positioned in the casing interior; the casing comprising an exterior liquid entry control surface defined by a perimeter in sealing relationship with an edge of a cap, the ...
A portable device for rapidly inflating an inflatable bag is disclosed, which comprises at least one inlet intended to be connected to a source of compressed gas, in order to allow this gas to expand into an air intake chamber, the inlet being associated with a mechanism that triggers the release of ...
An apparatus for protecting and providing user access to a touch sensitive device underwater, comprising a waterproof casing comprising an inner cavity configured to receive the touch sensitive device, the casing comprising: a first area of the casing for providing user access to the touch sensitive ...
A first stage pressure regulator is provided. The regulator includes a valve body having an inlet and an outlet coupled by a pressure chamber. A pressure compensation chamber fluidly communicates with the surrounding water. A valve member is slidably carried by the valve body between an open state in ...
A helmet can include a helmet body comprising an energy-absorbing layer and an outer shell disposed over the energy-absorbing layer. An electronic device can be integrated with the helmet body. A first electrical contact can be formed at an exterior of the outer shell and adapted to be in electrical ...

A system for monitoring marine vessels using a satellite network may include a plurality of satellite payloads to be carried by respective satellites. Each satellite payload may include a communications interface configured to communicate via the satellite network, a radio frequency (RF) transceiver ...
The Kumamoto oyster, Crassostrea sikamea, is native to Southeast Asia, including China, Japan and Korea, and is an important traditional wild fishery resource. Although this oyster’s early gametogenesis was reported in Mexico, no related research was found on the breeding potential using early forming ...
A method for increasing the weight and growth rate of fish, preferably Salmonidae, and for preventing and/or treating microbial infections, comprising the steps of a) adding one or more species of probiotic bacteria to water, wherein the species of bacteria comprises or consists of Aliivibrio njordis, ...
The present invention relates to a field of veterinary and human medicine. In particular, the invention relates to a composition suitable for parenteral administration, based on hydrolyzate obtained from natural bioresources, a composition for use in treating and/or preventing a pathological condition ...
Abstract Growing evidence has suggested that dietary modification is implicated with sleep alteration. Our study aimed to determine whether an association between diet in terms of diet quality, certain food consumption, and dietary nutrients intake and sleep quality existed in Chinese urban adults, ...
Abstract Although sulfites are widely used in shrimp processing, the contents of residual sulfite need to be strictly controlled due to their potential toxicity. In this paper, a novel method was developed for determination of the free and total sulfites in shrimps. Major procedures of the method includes ...
Seafood is an emerging health food, and interest in improving the quality of seafood is increasing. Saxitoxin (STX) is a neurotoxin produced by marine dinoflagellates that is accumulated in seafood. It can block the neuronal transmission between nerves and muscle cell membranes, resulting in the disturbance ...
ABSTRACT In this paper, we outline the use of a mitochondria-targeted ratiometric mass spectrometry probe, MitoA, to detect in vivo changes in mitochondrial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in Poecilia mexicana (family Poeciliidae). MitoA is introduced via intraperitoneal injection into the animal and is taken ...
Cryptosporidium, a zoonotic pathogen, is able to infect a wide range of hosts including wild and domestic animals, and humans. Although it is well known that some parasites are both fish pathogens and recognized agents of zoonosis with a public health impact, little information is available concerning ...
Prophylactic administration of immunopotentiators has been tested and practiced as one of the most promising disease prevention methods in aquaculture. Chitosan oligosaccharide (COS), as an ideal immunopotentiator, is mainly used as feed additives in aquaculture, and the antimicrobial and immune enhancement ...
The self-renewal and differentiation of germ cells are essential for gametogenesis and reproduction. In mammals, the transcription factors SOHLH1 and SOHLH2, two members of the bHLH family, are specifically expressed in the gonads, and play an important role in spermatocyte and oocyte differentiation. ...
