Shallow Water Depth Retrieval From Multitemporal Sentinel-1 SAR Data

The Sentinel-1 constellation can provide numerous high-resolution C-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data with long-term continuity and freely, thus showing a cost-effective solution for the coastal monitoring at high or moderate spatial resolutions. The major goal is to improve estimates of shallow ...

Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Inorganic Arsenic via Consumption of Herbs Collected in Thailand

Total and inorganic arsenic contents in ten commonly consumed Thai herbs, namely, bird's eye chili, cayenne pepper, celery, garlic, holy basil, kitchen mint, lemongrass, pepper, shallot, and sweet basil, were determined using atomic absorption spectrometry coupled with a hydride generation system (HG-AAS). ...

Essential Oils as Feed Additives—Future Perspectives

The inconsistency of phytogenic feed additives’ (PFA) effects on the livestock industry poses a risk for their use as a replacement for antibiotic growth promoters. The livestock market is being encouraged to use natural growth promotors, but information is limited about the PFA mode of action. The ...

Test of the Deception Hypothesis in Atlantic Mollies Poecilia mexicana—Does the Audience Copy a Pretended Mate Choice of Others?

Animals often use public information for mate-choice decisions by observing conspecifics as they choose their mates and then copying this witnessed decision. When the copier, however, is detected by the choosing individual, the latter often alters its behavior and spends more time with the previously ...

Genetic polymorphism in selenoprotein P modifies the response to selenium-rich foods on blood levels of selenium and selenoprotein P in a randomized dietary intervention ...

Background Selenium is an essential trace element and is suggested to play a role in the etiology of a number of chronic diseases. Genetic variation in genes encoding selenoproteins, such as selenoprotein P and the glutathione peroxidases, may affect selenium status and, thus, individual susceptibility ...

Cell surface nucleolin interacts with and internalizes Bothrops asper Lys49 phospholipase A2 and mediates its toxic activity

Phospholipases A2 are a major component of snake venoms. Some of them cause severe muscle necrosis through an unknown mechanism. Phospholipid hydrolysis is a possible explanation of their toxic action, but catalytic and toxic properties of PLA2s are not directly connected. In addition, viperid venoms ...

eDNA metabarcoding as a new surveillance approach for coastal Arctic biodiversity

Abstract Because significant global changes are currently underway in the Arctic, creating a large‐scale standardized database for Arctic marine biodiversity is particularly pressing. This study evaluates the potential of aquatic environmental DNA ( eDNA) metabarcoding to detect Arctic coastal biodiversity ...

A Single Vibrionales 16S rRNA Oligotype Dominates the Intestinal Microbiome in Two Geographically Separated Atlantic cod Populations

Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) provides an interesting species for the study of host-microbe interactions because it lacks the MHC II complex that is involved in the presentation of extracellular pathogens. Nonetheless, little is known about the diversity of its microbiome in natural populations. Here, ...

A study of virulence and antimicrobial resistance pattern in diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli isolated from diarrhoeal stool specimens from children and adults in a tertiary ...

Background Emergence of atypical enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) and hybrid E. coli (harboring genes of more than one DEC pathotypes) strains have complicated the issue of growing antibiotic resistance in diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli (DEC). This ongoing evolution occurs in nature predominantly ...

Association of Dietary Patterns with Metabolic Syndrome: Results from the Kardiovize Brno 2030 Study

Although metabolic syndrome (MetS) could be handled by lifestyle interventions, its relationship with dietary patterns remains unclear in populations from Central Europe. Using data from the Kardiovize Brno cohort, the present study aims to identify the main dietary patterns and to evaluate their association ...

CADDY Underwater Stereo-Vision Dataset for Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) in the Context of Diver Activities

In this article we present a novel underwater dataset collected from several field trials within the EU FP7 project "Cognitive autonomous diving buddy (CADDY)", where an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) was used to interact with divers and monitor their activities. To our knowledge, this is one of ...

Tributyltin and Vascular Dysfunction: The Role of Oxidative Stress

The organotin compounds (OT) are used as fungicides, stabilizers in plastics, miticides, manufacturing and agricultural biocides, wood preservatives and antifouling agents. Tributyltin (TBT) is an OT that was first used for antifouling because it was the most effective agent to prevent undesirable accumulation ...

Complete Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus curvatus NFH-Km12, Isolated from the Japanese Traditional Fish Fermented Food Kabura-zushi

ABSTRACT Kabura-zushi is a traditional Japanese fermented food made from yellowtail, rice, salt, and kōji. In this study, the complete genomic sequence of Lactobacillus curvatus NFH-Km12, isolated from this unique food, is reported. NFH-Km12 has a 1.9-Mbp chromosome and contains 5 plasmids.

Body density of humpback whales (Megaptera novaengliae) in feeding aggregations estimated from hydrodynamic gliding performance

Many baleen whales undertake annual fasting and feeding cycles, resulting in substantial changes in their body condition, an important factor affecting fitness. As a measure of lipid-store body condition, tissue density of a few deep diving marine mammals has been estimated using a hydrodynamic glide ...

A new targeted capture method using bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) libraries as baits for sequencing relatively large genes

To analyze a specific genome region using next-generation sequencing technologies, the enrichment of DNA libraries with targeted capture methods has been standardized. For enrichment of mitochondrial genome, a previous study developed an original targeted capture method that use baits constructed from ...

Updated checklist of the extant Chondrichthyes within the Exclusive Economic Zone of Mexico

Abstract The checklist presented in this study includes the latest taxonomic and systematic modifications and updates (early 2018) for the Chondrichthyes that inhabit the Exclusive Economic Zone ( EEZ) of Mexico. The list is based on a literature review of field-specific books, scientific publications ...

Draft Genome Sequence of Vibrio vulnificus 86573B, a Bacterium Isolated from Diseased Tilapia in Taiwan

ABSTRACT Vibrio vulnificus 86573B is a biotype 1 strain isolated from a moribund tilapia collected in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, during an outbreak early in 1997. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of this bacterium to facilitate the investigation of its biology and future comparative genomic analys...

Transcription of IVIAT and Virulence Genes in Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida Infecting Solea senegalensis

Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida (Phdp) is responsible for disease outbreaks in marine aquaculture worldwide. Solea senegalensis, a valuable fish species for aquaculture in the south of Europe, is frequently affected by this pathogen. It is well established that bacteria respond to environmental ...

Advances in assessing Sabellaria spinulosa reefs for ongoing monitoring

Abstract Standardized and repeatable data acquisition and analyses are required to enable the mapping and condition monitoring of reefs within Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Changes in habitat condition must be reliably identified and reported to best support evidence‐based management. Biogenic reefs ...

Ag-Coated Cellulose Fibers as Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Substrates for Adsorptive Detection of Malachite Green

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a sensitive technique for the detection of low concentration analytes. In this study, we used cellulose fibers (CF) as the templates for the loading of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), and the obtained CF-Ag was applied in the detection of R6G and Malachite ...
