Determining the magnitude and causes of intrinsic variability is a main issue in the analysis of bivalve growth. Inter-individual variability in bivalve growth has been attributed to differences in the physiological performance. This hypothesis has been commonly tested comparing the physiological rates ...
Blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) produce byssal threads to anchor themselves to the substrate. These threads are always exposed to the surrounding environmental conditions. Understanding how environmental pH affects these threads is crucial in understanding how climate change can affect mussels. This work ...
Despite being the fourth largest criminal market in the world, no forensic tools have been sufficiently developed to accurately determine the legal status of seized animals and their parts. Although legal trading is permissible for farmed or captive-bred animals, many animals are illegally removed from ...
In shrimp aquaculture, farming systems are carefully managed to avoid rearing failure due to stress, disease, or mass mortality, and to achieve optimum shrimp production. However, little is known about how shrimp farming systems affect biogeochemical parameters and bacterial communities in rearing water, ...
Plants and their associated bacteria play a crucial role in constructed wetlands. In this study, the impact of different levels of pollution and bioaugmentation with indigenous strains individually or in consortia was investigated on the composition of the endophytic microbial communities of Juncus ...
The carrageenophyte Kappaphycus alvarezii (Rhodophyta) has neurotrophic activity in primary hippocampal neurons. This seaweed is abundant and easily cultivated in tropical coastal areas. To determine the best growth conditions for neurotrophic activity, thalli were grown at different depths and for ...
ABSTRACT Bacillus sp. strain ISO11, a Bacillus cereus clade member isolated from the intestinal tract of Fundulus heteroclitus, possesses potential probiotic and antibacterial activity against Vibrio sp. pathogens. Antibacterial activity is likely due to production of microcin and a zwittermicin A-like ...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro effect of different doses (50, 100, 200, 400, and 800 mg/L) of Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) at 4 °C for 24 h on the kinematics of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, Walbaum, 1792) spermatozoon. Firstly, Fe3O4 NPs were prepared at about 30 nm from Iron ...
The invention relates to a method according to which a) in an immersion process, a molded body (4) is immersed in a liquid synthetic polyisoprene (IR) (synthetic latex), wherein the molded body (4) has first been treated with coagulants (coagulating agents) or thermally treated, b) after exchanging, ...
The invention relates to an AIS data transmission method using AIS standard-compliant AIS signals. The AIS data (5) to be transmitted is converted into AIS signals on the transmitter side and transmitted via a main channel (41). The AIS signals are received in an AIS receiver (2, 3) and converted back ...
Rebreather, with a multifunctional mouthpiece with a closed circuit mode, an open circuit mode, an automatic diluent valve with an increased cracking pressure, an overpressure valve where by turning a barrel the modes can be selected and the automatic diluents valve and the overpressure valve get activated ...
Brackets for cameras on ski helmets must, on the one hand, hold the camera securely on the helmet and on the other hand, also permit a releasable attachment. To further develop such a bracket, the bracket includes a release unit, which when a defined load on the camera is exceeded, the camera is released ...
The present invention relates to a portable airbag system for people, comprising a support intended to be worn by a user, and an airbag device comprising at least one inflatable bag having at least one central part (2a) designed to be disposed behind the head of a user after triggering. The airbag device ...
Technological improvement is the most important cause of long-term economic growth, but the factors that drive it are still not fully understood. In standard growth models technology is treated in the aggregate, and a main goal has been to understand how growth depends on factors such as knowledge production. ...
Mollusk shells represent important archives for paleoclimatic studies aiming to reconstruct environmental conditions at high temporal resolution. However, the shells, made of calcium carbonate in the form of aragonite and /or calcite, can be altered through time which may undermine the suitability for ...
After a series of intentional Global Positioning System (GPS) jamming attacks impacted a large area of South Korea, the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries of South Korea considers long-range navigation (Loran) and enhanced Loran (eLoran) as a maritime backup navigation system. Despite its robustness to ...
It is an object of the invention to provide antifouling paint polyester resin and its manufacture method and antifouling paint compositions, the antifouling paint polyester resin can singly be liquefied in the state of low VOC is maintained by improving bin stability, and curability can be improved, ...
Oily fish, an important source of marine n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA), has shown to reduce cardiometabolic risk in adults. Whether maternal fish intake affects offspring metabolic health is less established, especially among high-risk pregnancies. We aimed to examine the association ...
Alginate is a naturally occurring polysaccharide used in the bio industry. It is mainly derived from brown algae species. Alginate-based edible coatings and films attract interest for improving/maintaining quality and extending the shelf-life of fruit, vegetable, meat, poultry, seafood, and cheese by ...
Background Arachis contains 80 species that carry many beneficial genes that can be utilized in the genetic improvement of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. 2n = 4x = 40, genome AABB). Chromosome engineering is a powerful technique by which these genes can be transferred and utilized in cultivated peanut. ...
