Diatoms synthesize sterols by inclusion of animal and fungal genes in the plant pathway [PDF]
Diatoms are ubiquitous microalgae that have developed remarkable metabolic plasticity and gene diversification. Here we report the first elucidation of the complete biosynthesis of sterols in the lineage.

Integrated workflow of domoic acid (DA) detection in seafood using a high‐sensitivity electrochemical biosensor and subsequent evaluation of DA‐induced cellular responses. (A) DA monitoring in seafood: Marine samples (European anchovy and mussels from the Marmara and Black Sea) were collected, extracted using a 1:1 methanol/water mixture, and analyzed ...

Improved Detection of Domoic Acid Using Covalently Immobilised Antibody Fragments
Antibody molecules, and antibody fragments in particular, have enormous potential in the development of biosensors for marine monitoring. Conventional immobilisation approaches used in immunoassays typically yield unstable and mostly incorrectly oriented

Diatoms–copepods: An evolutionary arms race
Abstract Diatoms and copepods are dominating and diverse groups of phytoplankton and zooplankton, respectively. Diatoms account for 25–40% of ocean primary production, and their main predators, copepods, are arguably the most abundant group of metazoans in the ocean, typically accounting for ~ 80% of zooplankton biomass.

Heart Alterations after Domoic Acid Administration in Rats
Domoic acid (DA) is one of the best known marine toxins, causative of important neurotoxic alterations. DA effects are documented both in wildlife and experimental assays, showing that this toxin causes severe injuries principally in the hippocampal area.

Dissolved Algal Toxins along the Southern Coast of British Columbia Canada
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) in coastal British Columbia (BC), Canada, negatively impact the salmon aquaculture industry. One disease of interest to salmon aquaculture is Net Pen Liver Disease (NPLD), which induces severe liver damage and is believed to ...

Seasonal dynamics in the occurrence and abundance of Pseudo-nitzschia species in the Maheshkhali channel of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh [PDF]
Occurrence and abundance of Pseudo-nitzschia spp. at the mouth of the Maheshkhali channel of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh were studied. Plankton and water samples were collected monthly from the sub-surface water during high tide at daytime from June ...

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...
