A Review of Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs for Food‐Producing Animals With a Focus on Potential Applications for Farmed Finfish

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In finfish aquaculture, there are several inflammatory diseases impacting productivity and animal welfare, however there are limited options available to veterinarians to treat inflammation and pain in fish. Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in terrestrial animals raised for human consumption to treat a range of ...

Nutritional Characterisation of Acheta domesticus at Different Developmental Stages for Application in Animal Feed

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The house cricket Acheta domesticus has emerged as a promising alternative protein source for animal nutrition; however, limited information is available on how developmental stage influences its nutritional characteristics. This study compared subadults (30‐day‐old) and adults (40‐day‐old) crickets in terms of chemical composition, mineral ...

Plasma Pharmacokinetic Profile of Fipronil 1% Pour‐On in Cattle: Photodegradation and the Sustained Systemic Persistence of Fipronil Sulfone

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study characterized the long‐term pharmacokinetic profile of a 1% fipronil pour‐on formulation in Nellore bulls under field conditions. Seventeen animals received a single topical dose (1 mg/kg), and plasma concentrations of fipronil and its metabolites (sulfone and desulfinyl) were monitored for 175 days using LC–MS/MS.

Extracting vitalities: Cuts in Indigenous women's bodies‐territories (Brazil)

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, I explore the connections between the medicalization of childbirth and environmental devastation through Guarani‐Mbyá understandings of life and the living. I argue that the cuts made to Guarani‐Mbyá women's vaginas (episiotomies) in Brazilian hospitals are experienced and situated on the same cosmopolitical level as the cuts ...

GmDOF3.1‐GmCPX Module Regulates Nodulation and Nitrogen Fixation Abilities in Soybean

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybean nodule nitrogen fixation is very important, which can provide a large amount of nitrogen supply for its own growth and that of other crops, but the mechanism is largely unclear. In the present study, a coproporphyrinogen oxidase gene, GmCPX, was identified to facilitate soybean nodulation and nitrogen‐fixation under the regulation of ...

Cell‐Specific Expression and Cellular Compartmental Regulation in Camptothecin Biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant secondary metabolites such as monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) show tightly regulated biosynthesis and accumulation in specific organelles of distinct cell types. However, the cell‐specific expression patterns of anticancer MIA camptothecin biosynthetic genes in Ophiorrhiza pumila and the regulatory mechanisms of camptothecin ...

Living in the Mycelial World

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...
