A Potential Adjuvant Agent of Chemotherapy: Sepia Ink Polysaccharides
Sepia ink polysaccharide (SIP) isolated from squid and cuttlefish ink is a kind of acid mucopolysaccharide that has been identified in three types of primary structures from squid (Illex argentinus and Ommastrephes bartrami), cuttlefish Sepiella ...

Effects of two thawing methods on the shelf life of cephalopod mollusks
Thawing is a critical step in cephalopod processing, as it affects physicochemical parameters, microbial stability, and overall product quality. Current European and national guidelines recommend consuming or processing thawed cephalopods within 24 hours,

Useful Techniques for Artificial Fertilization of the Ommastrephid Squid Illex argentinus
This study examined the rate of fertilization in the Argentine shortfin squid Illex argentinus after artificial insemination using sperm from different sources, as well as the effect of cold-storage on the fertilization capacity of gametes from mature squids, and the impact of mechanical agitation on embryonic development.

ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Purification, characterization and molecular cloning of tyrosinase from the cephalopod mollusk, Illex argentinus [PDF]
Tyrosinase (monophenol, l‐DOPA:oxygen oxidoreductase) was isolated from the ink of the squid, Illex argentinus. Squid tyrosinase, termed ST94, was found to occur as a covalently linked homodimeric protein with a molecular mass of 140.2 kDa containing two copper atoms per a subunit.

Abstract Exchanges between continental shelves and open ocean basins regulate the transport of heat, salt, and nutrients. In the Southwestern Atlantic, the western boundary current known as the Malvinas Current (MC) fertilizes the outer shelf through recurrent slope‐water intrusions.

Long‐lived species should invest more in reproduction than in somatic maintenance as they age. We investigated this trade‐off by analyzing correlations among telomere length, reproductive effort and output, and basal corticosterone in Magellanic penguins.

Identification of Vibrio parahemolyticus Isolated from Seafood via Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
Background: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the most common cause of human infections of all members of the Vibrio genus, accounting for between 31 and 50% of the food poisoning cases. Consumption of food contaminated with V. parahaemolyticus can cause severe

Tyrosinase plays an important role in the formation of the shell matrix and melanin synthesis in mollusks shells. A cDNA clone encoding a 47 kDa protein was isolated from the pearl oyster Pinctada fucata. The cDNA was 1,957 base pairs long and encodes a 417 residue protein that has extensive sequence identity with tyrosinase (polyphenol oxidase: EC 1 ...

Distribution and lipid composition of early life stages of the cranchiid squid Galiteuthis glacialis (Chun) in the Weddell Sea, Antarctica [PDF]
The relatively small numbers of pelagic cephalopods caught in the RMT-8 samples (0–300 m) in February/March 1983 in the Weddell Sea were dominated by early life stages of the cranchiid squid Galiteuthis glacialis. A total of 48 specimens were caught with
