Sea cucumbers reduce chromophoric dissolved organic matter in aquaculture tanks [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Background Mono-specific aquaculture effluents contain high concentrations of nutrients and organic matter, which affect negatively the water quality of the recipient ecosystems. A fundamental feature of water quality is its transparency. The fraction of

Cinerascensosides A and B, Two New Cytotoxic Sulfated Saponins From the Sea Cucumber Holothuria cinerascens

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
Two new saponins cinerascensosides A and B (1 and 2) are isolated from the sea cucumber H. cinerascens. Their structures and absolute configurations are established through extensive spectroscopic analysis, DP4+ probability calculation, and ECD calculations.

Aquaculture of emerging species in North-Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea: a systematic review on sea cucumber farming and potential development

Frontiers in Marine Science
Sea cucumbers are considered a traditional food delicacy in Asian countries. In last decades high market demand, uncontrolled exploitation and inadequate management have led to stock overexploitation, driving commercial interest in new target species and

Ecological Reasons for the Unusually High Rate of Gastropod Drill Hole Repair in the Deep‐Sea Brachiopod Abyssothyris wyvillei From New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
Brachiopods are able to repair drill holes made in their shells by predatory gastropods. However, in most samples examined, drill hole repair is rare to absent: Presumably the drilling attack is usually fatal to the prey. The shells of short‐looped brachiopod Abyssothyris wyvillei, from deep‐sea dredge samples from two localities in the Tasman Sea, New

Effect of Different Algal Biofilms on the Larval Settlement of the Holothuria tubulosa Sea Cucumber (Gmelin, 1788)

Diversity
The increasing exploitation of sea cucumbers has driven widespread population declines, highlighting the need to improve knowledge and understanding of the early life history stages of exploited species such as Holothuria tubulosa, one of the most common
