Freshwater crabs occupying tropical north Queensland coastal creeks [PDF]

Australian Zoologist, 2014
Balancing coastal urban development with species conservation and habitat protection can be challenging for managers especially where good quality ecological data is lacking. Primary freshwater crabs (Austrothelphusa species) of the family Gecarcinucidae (formerly Parathelphusidae) that occupy inland creek systems are also present in small coastal ...

The highly rearranged mitochondrial genomes of the crabs Maja crispata and Maja squinado (Majidae) and gene order evolution in Brachyura [PDF]

, 2017
We sequenced the mitochondrial genomes of the spider crabs Maja crispata and Maja squinado (Majidae, Brachyura). Both genomes contain the whole set of 37 genes characteristic of Bilaterian genomes, encoded on both \u3b1- and \u3b2-strands.

Life cycle assessment of biodiesel synthesis from waste cooking oil using bifunctional heterogeneous catalyst

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The development of renewable energy sources is important in order to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Waste cooking oil (WCO) is a promising feedstock for biodiesel production through transesterification. Heterogeneous bifunctional catalysts offer a sustainable alternative to conventional homogeneous bases such ...

Valorization of freshwater crab shell residues to chitosan for postharvest quality of mango (Mangifera indica L.) by fruit coating

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research
Freshwater crab shells (Somanniathelphusa dugasti) are abundant in inland areas and rich in chitosan, which can be extracted and utilized. This study investigated the characteristics of chitosan from freshwater crab shells (FC-chitosan) and its impact on
