Effect of Artemia franciscana on the Removal of Nickel by Bioaccumulation
Biocontrol Science, 2014 The present study evaluates the feasibility of using Artemia franciscana in reducing the Ni concentration of synthetic wastewater by the process of bioaccumulation. Metallothionein protein plays a key role in the uptake of nickel by Artemia. Artemia (Brine shrimp) was exposed to an initial nickel concentration of 40 mg/L. Gradual decrease of nickel was

Comparing cestode infections and their consequences for host fitness in two sexual branchiopods: alien Artemia franciscana and native A. salina from syntopic-populations [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 The American brine shrimp Artemia franciscana is invasive in the Mediterranean region where it has displaced native species (the sexual A. salina, and the clonal A. parthenogenetica) from many salt pond complexes.

Sequence and expression analysis of HSP70 family genes in Artemia franciscana. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractThus far, only one gene from the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family has been identified in Artemia franciscana. Here, we used the draft Artemia transcriptome database to search for other genes in the HSP70 family. Four novel HSP70 genes were identified and designated heat shock cognate 70 (HSC70), heat shock 70 kDa cognate 5 (HSC70-5 ...

Settling taxonomic and nomenclatural problems in brine shrimps, Artemia (Crustacea: Branchiopoda: Anostraca), by integrating mitogenomics, marker discordances and nomenclature rules [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 High morphological plasticity in populations of brine shrimp subjected to different environmental conditions, mainly salinity, hindered for centuries the identification of the taxonomic entities encompassed within Artemia.

Alternative Biotest on Artemia franciscana
, 2012 Recent toxicology, in accordance with recommendations from the European Council, has demanded decrease in the number of vertebrates used in toxicology testing and their partial replacement with invertebrate animals, plants or even organ, tissue, or cell cultures.

Protein Kinases in Mitochondria of the InvertebrateArtemia franciscana
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1997 The information concerning protein kinases in animal mitochondria is scarce and related only to mammals. No data are available for invertebrates. We demonstrate here the presence of casein kinase II (CK II) and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in the purified mitochondria of the crustacean Artemia franciscana.

ARTEMIA BIOENCAPSULATION I. EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZES ON THE FILTERING BEHAVIOR OF ARTEMIA FRANCISCANA [PDF]
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2001 Abstract Artemia is not believed to be a selective filter-feeding organism; however, evidence of an influence of the size of the nutrient particles on the filtration process of this crustacean is presented. To evaluate the influence of the size of food on the filtration process, assays with latex particles and with starch granules were made. A relation
