Changes in Digestive Enzyme Activities during Larval Development of Spotted Seatrout (Cynoscion nebulosus). [PDF]
The spotted seatrout (Cynoscion nebulosus)—an important commercial species—has a high potential for aquaculture in the Gulf of Mexico. To optimize its feeding during larval rearing, this study aims to evaluate the primary gastric (pepsin), intestinal (leucine aminopeptidase and alkaline phosphatase), and pancreatic (alkaline protease, trypsin ...

Background – Allergen immunotherapy is used as aetiological treatment for canine atopic dermatitis (cAD). Objective – To assess the anti‐inflammatory agent‐sparing effect over 1 year of immunotherapy using pullulan‐conjugated recombinant Der f 2 (rDf2‐P). Conclusions and Clinical Relevance – Der f 2‐P immunotherapy can lead to a rapid reduction in anti‐

ABSTRACT In vineyards facing soil degradation and biodiversity loss, crop diversification may improve sustainability, but its effects on the soil microbiome remain unclear. In a 3‐year field study, we examined how diversifying the plant row under grapevine with aromatic plants affected topsoil properties (0–10 cm) in an organically farmed, steep‐sloped

Background – Malassezia pachydermatis (MP) is implicated in severe dermatitis and otitis externa (OE) of companion animals and recently gained attention for its increasing resistance to azole compounds. For this reason, developing novel therapeutic strategies is of great interest. In a previous work, we used reference yeast isolates to evaluate several

Long‐Term Tillage and Compost Shape Soil Microbes Under Soil Organic Carbon Equilibrium
ABSTRACT Soil microorganisms are crucial in regulating soil organic matter dynamics and nutrient cycling, mediating the effects of agricultural management on soil health. Although the microbial responses to changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) are well‐documented, a knowledge gap remains regarding microbial dynamics when soils reach SOC equilibrium ...

Tadpole aggregations create biogeochemical hotspots in wetland ecosystems
This research demonstrates that tadpoles can create biogeochemical hotspots in wetland ecosystems and has important ramifications for our understanding of the functional role of animal species in nutrient cycling. Abstract Animal waste can contribute substantially to nutrient cycling and ecosystem productivity in many environments.

Bacterial volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are biological volatiles that can have a positive effect on the postharvest preservation of fruits and vegetables. In the present study, fumigation of broccoli with BVOCs released by Lysinibacillus fusiformis supplemented with LED white light irradiation reduced the accumulation of reactive oxygen species ...

Abstract Heterotrophic bacteria can contribute to improve stream water quality by taking up nitrate (NO3−) from the water column, although microbial demand for this nutrient is usually lower than for other inorganic nitrogen (N) forms, such as ammonium.

Aminopeptidases as a type of exopeptidase can hydrolyze peptide bonds at the N‐terminus of polypeptide and protein, serving as various key roles in the physiological and pathological processes. In this review, diverse representative examples of recent works about activatable aminopeptidase probes are summarized including sensing, imaging, and therapy ...
