Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis and comprehensive evaluation of antibacterial, antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties of Thymus capitatus extracts from Libya

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The emergence of multidrug‐resistant bacteria necessitates the development of alternative therapeutic approaches. Thymus capitatus, a Mediterranean medicinal plant, has been traditionally used to treat various ailments, but its bioactive potential from Libyan origins remains underexplored.

DEET‐cyclodextrin inclusion complexes for mosquito and tick repellency: Extended repellency time and no zebrafish embryotoxicity

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (HPβCD)–N,N‐diethyl‐meta‐toluamide (DEET) complex extended tick repellency to 168 h. Full protection against Aedes aegypti for 7 h with HPβCD‐DEET. HPβCD reduced DEET release and skin retention significantly. No embryotoxicity observed below 325 mg L−1 in zebrafish model.

DEVELOPMENT OF ARTIFICIAL MEDIA FORARTEMIA SALINA

The Biological Bulletin, 1969
1. The 1959 undefined artificial medium for Artemia was simplified to a medium containing only defined ingredients: a liquid phase containing mineral salts, 6 amino acids, 5 nucleic acid components, 8 vitamins, 2 sugars, a pH buffer, and a fine particulate phase consisting of precipitated albumin, gelled rice starch, and cholesterol.

Rotenone Induces Morphological Damage and Reduction in Catecholamine Levels in the Central Nervous System of the Ascidian Styela plicata

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ascidians are invertebrates that occupy a key phylogenetic position as a sister group of the vertebrates. The organization of their central nervous system (CNS), with cortex and medulla, indicates a plesiomorphic character of the gray and white matter of vertebrates, making this group of animals useful for studies of neurodegenerative events ...

Artemia salina Toxicity Assay: Standardization in a 24‐Well Microplate

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bioassays with Artemia sp. are widely used in aquatic, environmental, and human toxicology as an initial tool to investigate the toxicity of plant extracts, isolated compounds, drugs, and products of natural or synthetic origin. These assays allow for the estimation of the median lethal concentration (LC50) and guide subsequent studies in ...

Increased energetic cost of movement reduces reproductive output in zebrafish at different temperatures and water flow rates

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Locomotion consumes a large proportion of individual energy budgets and may impose energetic constraints on other fitness‐related traits particularly under variable environmental conditions.
