Effects of Organotins on Crustaceans: Update and Perspectives

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Organotins (OTs) are considered some of the most toxic chemicals introduced into aquatic environments by anthropogenic activities. They are widely used for agricultural and industrial purposes and as antifouling additives on boat hull’s paints.

Dscam1 in Pancrustacean Immunity: Current Status and a Look to the Future

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
The Down syndrome cell adhesion molecule 1 (Dscam1) gene is an extraordinary example of diversity: by combining alternatively spliced exons, thousands of isoforms can be produced from just one gene. So far, such diversity in this gene has only been found

Growth performance, intestinal health, and non-specific immunity were significantly affected by feeding different compound lactic acid bacteria supplementation in sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus intermedius)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
A 50-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with different levels of compound lactic acid bacteria on the growth performance, antioxidant capacity, intestinal microbiota composition, and immunity of the ...

Sterol composition of shellfish species commonly consumed in the United States

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research, 2012
Background: Shellfish can be a component of a healthy diet due to a low fat and high protein content, but the cholesterol content of some species is often cited as a reason to limit their consumption. Data on levels of non-cholesterol sterols in commonly

Pattern recognition receptors in Crustacea: immunological roles under environmental stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Innate immunity is the first line of defense against infections and the only known available strategy for invertebrates. Crustaceans, being mostly aquatic invertebrates, are constantly exposed to potential pathogens in the surrounding water. Their immune

An Edible H2O2 Biosensor for Gastrointestinal Metabolites and Peroxidase Enzyme Quantification

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We present an edible biosensor for gastric fluid analysis that integrates a caffeic acid–horseradish peroxidase redox system into an edible electrolyte‐gated transistor. The device enables rapid, low‐volume detection of H2O2 and, with minimal modification, metabolites and enzyme activity in simulated gastrointestinal conditions.
