Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Differential Regulation of the Expression of the Two Thyrotropin Beta Subunit Paralogs by Salmon Pituitary Cells In Vitro

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
We recently characterized two paralogs of the thyrotropin (TSH) beta subunit in Atlantic salmon, tshβa and tshβb, issued from teleost-specific whole genome duplication.

Ecotoxicity of chlorpyrifos to aquatic organisms: A review

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2020
Pesticides play an important role in promoting agricultural development, while their unreasonable use has led to environmental problems. Chlorpyrifos (CPF), a typical organophosphate pesticide, is used globally as an insecticide in agriculture. The extensive application of CPF has resulted in water contamination, and CPF has been detected in rivers ...

A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.

Molecular, Enzymatic, and Cellular Characterization of Soluble Adenylyl Cyclase From Aquatic Animals. [PDF]

, 2018
The enzyme soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) is the most recently identified source of the messenger molecule cyclic adenosine monophosphate. sAC is evolutionarily conserved from cyanobacteria to human, is directly stimulated by [Formula: see text] ions ...

ZOONOSIS OF AQUATICAL ORGANISMS

Croatian Journal of Fisheries, 2001
Aquatic organisms play a very important role in human nutrition. They also pose a real threat for human health by causing various diseases. Parasites, bacteria and viruses may either directly or indirectly be carried from aquatic organisms to humans.

Photographing Aquatic Organisms

The American Biology Teacher, 1977
PHOTOGRAPHY OF AQUATIC organisms poses special problems-and rewards-to the biologist. Details of their structure, behavior and environment can be documented clearly. Yet water is a demanding medium to penetrate and to retain in place, and the interface between water and air refracts and reflects light, causing special problems to the photographer.

Identification and functional analysis of YB-1 and YB-2 from Amur minnow (Phoxinus lagowskii)

Aquaculture Reports
In vertebrates, Y-box proteins play a pivotal role in stress regulation. In this study, we cloned two Y-box genes (YB-1 and YB-2) from the cold-water fish, Amur minnow (Phoxinus lagowskii). Our findings showed that the full-length AmYB-1 and AmYB-2 genes
