Size-independent, between-individual variability in feed ingestion rate in European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Understanding between-individual variability in energy acquisition is essential for elucidating many ecological processes in wild fish populations and for enhancing the efficiency of aquaculture production.

High Ingestion Rate of Iodine from Povidone-Iodine Mouthwash [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Trace Element Research, 2021
Iodine-based mouthwash and throat sprays contain povidone iodine (PVP-I) for disinfection. PVP-I mouthwash has been commonly used for decades in Japan and other countries and frequent and/or prolonged use of PVP-I mouthwash can induce transient hypothyroidism. To assess the amount of iodine ingested from an oral rinse, 22 healthy adult volunteers (mean

Decreased feeding rates of the copepod Acartia tonsa when exposed to playback harbor traffic noise

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionCopepods present the largest and most diverse group of zooplankton and their feeding behavior can affect top-down and bottom-up processes. Thus, how efficient feeding is executed determines the abundance of copepods’ prey and their predators ...

Advancing Methodologies Used in Trace Element-Based Mass Balance Studies to Separately Estimate Soil and Dust Ingestion Rates for Children

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2023
Historically, soil ingestion rate estimates were based on trace element-based mass balance (MB) study results. These were used in assessing exposures and health risks for children residing in Superfund or chemically contaminated communities.

Thermal Fluctuations Yield Sex-Specific Differences of Ingestion Rates of the Littoral Mysid Neomysis integer

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Shallow aquatic environments are characterized by strong environmental variability. For ectotherms, temperature is the main driver of metabolic activity, thus also shaping performance. Ingestion rates in mysids are fast responses, influenced by metabolic

High-Frequency Responses of the Blue Mussel (Mytilus edulis) Feeding and Ingestion Rates to Natural Diets

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The feeding activity of bivalves is understood to change in response to a suite of environmental conditions, including food quantity and quality. It has been hypothesized that, by varying feeding rates in response to the available diet, bivalves may be ...

Effects of Temperature on the Bioenergetics of the Marine Protozoans Gyrodinium dominans and Oxyrrhis marina

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
We exposed Gyrodinium dominans and two strains of Oxyrrhis marina to temperatures well above (25°C) and below (12°C) their maintenance temperature (18°C) to study the mechanisms controlling the overall physiological response to thermal stress.

Proximal gastric distension modifies ingestion rate in pigs [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction Nutrition Development, 1997
Control of food ingestion related to proximal gastric distension has never been demonstrated in pigs. The aim of this study was to demonstrate its existence. Meal duration, food intake rate and characteristics of non-ingestion periods were evaluated during the ingestion of a 500 g meal with simultaneous balloon distension of the proximal stomach ...

Characterization of activity behavior using a digital medicine system and comparison to medication ingestion in patients with serious mental illness

open access: yesnpj Digital Medicine, 2021
Activity patterns can be important indicators in patients with serious mental illness. Here, we utilized an accelerometer and electrocardiogram incorporated within a digital medicine system, which also provides objective medication ingestion records, to ...

Ingestion of microplastics by copepods in Tampa Bay Estuary, FL

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Microplastics have been recognized as an emerging contaminant. Copepods are abundant primary consumers in marine food webs. Interactions between copepods and microplastics can lead to negative health effects to the individual and may have implications ...
