Linalool induces relaxation of the mantle of golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata)

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
The objective of this study was to evaluate the possible relaxing effect of essential oils (EOs) (Aloysia triphylla and Lippia alba) and phytochemicals (citral and linalool) in the gastropod Pomacea canaliculata. Animals were exposed to compounds at the concentrations range of 25-750 µL L-1.

Molluscicidal Activity of <i>Camellia Sinensis</i> (Green Tea) and <i>Camellia sinensis</i> var. Assamica (Purple Tea) Extracts Against <i>Biomphalaria pfeifferi,</i> the Major Vector Snail of Human Schistosomiasis in Sub-Saharan Africa. [PDF]

J Parasitol Res
Freshwater pulmonate snails are prevalent across Kenya and act as intermediate hosts for trematode parasites, some of which are snail vectors for human schistosomiasis. Chemical molluscicides have rarely been used routinely in Kenya to control snails due to high costs of manufacture and the subsequent environmental concerns associated with their use ...

The Physicochemical Properties of Flavor Enhancer Made from Different Types of Snail Protein Hydrolysates

International Journal on Food, Agriculture and Natural Resources, 2022
Golden apple snails, apple snails, and freshwater snails are mollusks found in shallow waters with mud on the bottom, such as rice fields, swamps, and riverbanks. Snail has a high protein content of 14%-19%, but its utilization is still limited.

Adverse effects of cypermethrin on golden apple snails (Pomacea canaliculata) and their eggs, and application of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) as biomarker [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2022
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cypermethrin on hatching rate of golden apple snail eggs, mortality rate of the golden apple snails, and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) expression applied as a bio-indicator. The results showed that cypermethrin

Structural similarities reveal an expansive conotoxin family with a two-finger toxin fold. [PDF]

Protein Sci
Abstract Venomous animals have evolved a diverse repertoire of toxins with considerable pharmaceutical potential. The rapid evolution of peptide toxins, such as the conotoxins produced by venomous marine cone snails, often complicates efforts to infer their evolutionary relationships based solely on sequence information.

Effects of co-occurrence of invading Procambarus clarkii and Pomacea canaliculata on Vallisneria denseserrulata-dominated clear-water ecosystems: a mesocosm approach

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2021
Single invaders often substantially alter ecosystems, but the potential impacts by multiple invaders remain understudied. The golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) and the red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) are two widespread coinvaders.

Metabolic Activity of Invasive Apple Snails Negatively Affects the Survival of Native Benthic Snail in Mangrove. [PDF]

Biology (Basel)
The golden apple snail (GAS, Pomacea canaliculata) has invaded mangrove forests. The effect of water contaminated by metabolic activity of GAS feeding on Acanthus ilicifolius (T1), Sonneratia apetala (T2), and without food (CK) on the native mangrove ...
