Cardiopulmonary adaptations of a diving marine mammal, the bottlenose dolphin: Physiology during anesthesia

Physiological Reports
Diving marine mammals are a diverse group of semi‐ to completely aquatic species. Some species are targets of conservation and rehabilitation efforts; other populations are permanently housed under human care and may contribute to clinical and biomedical

Inconsistent Transcriptomic Responses to Hexabromocyclododecane in Japanese Quail: A Comparative Analysis of Results From Four Different Study Designs

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Development of a Highly Sensitive Time‐Resolved Fluorescence Immunochromatographic Assay for Rapid Onsite Determination of Prometryn Residues in Food Samples

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
The recombinant full‐length antibody against prometryn (PRO‐rAb) was prepared by HEK293 (F) cell expression system and utilized as the foundation for time‐resolved fluorescence immunochromatographic assay (TRFICA). The established method showed good performance for the detection of prometryn residues in five food samples. ABSTRACT Prometryn, a triazine

A review of the impact of micro‐ and nanoplastics on female reproduction: What we know and gaps in knowledge

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Micro‐and nanoplastics (MNPs) are breakdown products of plastics, and humans are exposed to these particles through air, water, food, and soil. There is a growing concern that human exposure to MNPs negatively impacts health. In this review we will discuss the potential health impact of MNPs on ovarian function and the hypothalamic–pituitary ...

Use of the TIPS Technique as a Possible Method of Acute Inhalation Toxicity Assessment

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute inhalation toxicity studies provide crucial information regarding short‐term exposure to volatile chemicals and help to ensure the safe handling and use of these chemicals. However, acute inhalation toxicity assessment requires specialized equipment, and most animal facilities are not able to carry out such studies.

A prototype submersible sheathless flow cytometer designed for autonomous platforms

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Development of submersible flow cytometers has allowed for continuous, in situ measurements of natural assemblages of phytoplankton cells. Here we introduce DeepCyte, a sensitive prototype submersible flow cytometer developed for deployment on autonomous platforms.

What is “accuracy”? Rethinking machine learning classifier performance metrics for highly imbalanced, high variance, zero‐inflated species count data

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Machine learning has opened the door for the automated sorting (classification) of images, holograms and acoustic backscatters of individual plankton, invertebrates, fish and marine mammals. However, this field is complicated by decades of paradoxically promising reports of classifier performance that do not correlate with real‐world uptake of

The IceShark, an effective method for sampling plankton under sea ice

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Seasonal sea ice plays a crucial role in shaping coastal ecosystem dynamics throughout the circumpolar region. Of particular interest to oceanographers is the ice‐ocean interface which functions as a multidimensional habitat, supporting both sympagic algae and pelagic phytoplankton in the under‐ice surface waters.
