Food selectivity and grazing responses of the Lawnmower Blenny (Salarias fasciatus) to nutrient enrichment and ammonia exposure

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Nutrient enrichment can alter the nutritional quality of the epilithic algal matrix (EAM) and modify the feeding environment of herbivorous and detritivorous reef fishes. However, wastewater inputs can also elevate ammonia concentrations, which may disrupt fish physiological processes, yet the effects of ammonia exposure on grazing activity ...

Macroalgae respond to consumer‐mediated nutrient cycling in a temperate ecosystem

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Primary production in coastal upwelling regions has often been presumed to be supported primarily by allochthonous nutrients, but inconsistent nutrient delivery and the metabolic cost of nitrate assimilation can leave producers nitrogen limited during the growing season. As a potential supplement for insufficient allochthonous supply, nutrient

Fucoxanthin Extractions of Brown Seaweeds and Analysis of Their Lipid Fraction in Methanol

open access: yesFood Science and Technology Research, 2012
In this present study, fucoxanthin has been successfully extracted and purified from two species of Malaysian brown seaweeds, namely Sargassum binderi and S. duplicatum. The purity of the fucoxanthin obtained was > 99% as indicated by HPLC analysis. Both fucoxanthincontent, and analysis of lipid fraction of the seaweeds in methanol showed that both ...
