Participation of lectins in crustacean immune system
, 2017 Several lectins have been found in crustaceans, and it has been suggested that they play roles in cell signalling, cell–cell interaction, protein synthesis and pathogen recognition.

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.This manuscript describes the preparation of four types of spent coffee ground‐based adsorbents. Herein, the influence of the alkali pre‐treatment step (different NaOH concentrations) as well as the effect of crosslinking with epichlorohydrin is described.

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Effect of salinity stress on the life history variables of Branchipus schaefferi Fisher, 1834 (Crustacea: Anostraca) [PDF]
, 2005 BACKGROUND: Freshwater anostracans inhabit ephemeral water bodies in which as the water level decreases due to evaporation the salt concentration increases. Thus, for most anostracans salinity becomes the major stress factor.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and

Molecular identification of chitinase and its function in growth of Odontobutis potamophila
Aquaculture ReportsChitinases are pivotal enzymes for the degradation of chitin, which play a role in food digestion. However, the functional roles of chitinases in teleosts remain under-explored.
