A Unique Crustacean-Based Chitin Platform to Reduce Self-Aggregation of Polysaccharide Nanofibers

Fibers, 2022
Every year, over 8 million tons of crustacean shells are discarded. However, there exists an opportunity for valorizing the chitin and calcium carbonate part of the composition of the shells.

SEDIMENT BIOTURBATION POTENTIAL of UCA RAPAX and UCA URUGUAYENSIS AS A RESULT of THEIR FEEDING ACTIVITY

, 2012
Bioturbation of mangrove sediments by Uca uruguayensis (Nobili, 1901) and U. rapax (Smith, 1870) was compared based on the grain-size composition and organic content in surface sediment around the burrow and feeding pellets in two mangrove zones of the ...

IS CLEISTOSPERMY AND COENOSPERMY RELATED TO SPERM TRANSFER? A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM OF PACHYGRAPSUS TRANSVERSUS AND PACHYGRAPSUS GRACILIS (BRACHYURA: GRAPSIDAE)

, 2014
We describe the production of spermatophores and the seminal fluid in Pachygrapsus transversus and P. gracilis. Both species have tubular testes. The vas deferens is divided into anterior (AVD), middle (MVD), and posterior (PVD). The AVD in P transversus
