On the Sterols of Mollusks, Snails and Bivalves
Journal of Japan Oil Chemists' Society, 1971 The compositions of sterols of snails and bivalves were determined. In this study, six species of marine snails, two species of fresh-water snails, two species of marine bivalves, fresh-water and brackish-water bivalve were examined.The unsaponifiable matter was acetylated and separated in to several fractions by silver nitrateimpregnated silicic acid ...

Bioaccumulation of bacteriophages T4 and RB43 by freshwater bivalves in sterile aquarium water
RUDN Journal of Ecology and Life SafetyIn our study, we investigated the bioaccumulation of T4 and RB43 bacteriophages by the bivalve mollusks U. pictorum and A. cygnea . Additionally, tests were conducted to determine the content of E.

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Our study shows that non‐native species alter the relationship between the size‐spectrum slope and the predator–prey mass ratio (PPMR) in freshwater fish communities by occupying distinct trophic niches. Abstract The size spectrum, which describes the relationship between abundance (or biomass) and body size, is an ataxic approach that can provide ...

Optimal designs of mollusk shells from bivalves to snails [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractBivalve, ammonite and snail shells are described by a small number of geometrical parameters. Raup noted that the vast majority of theoretically possible shell forms do not occur in nature. The constraint factors that regulate the biased distribution of natural form have long since been an open problem in evolution.

Validation of Pilot Protocol: Damage Scoring of Puget Sound Mollusk Shells [PDF]
, 2022 The Marine Sediment Monitoring Team at the Washington State Department of Ecology observed damage to mollusk shells while studying the benthic communities of Puget Sound. A pilot protocol was written to allow researchers to quantify the damage.
