Histamine in Brazilian Foods: A Comprehensive Review of Occurrence and Risk Assessment for Intoxication and Intolerance. [PDF]
Even though histamine plays an important role in human health, it has been associated with food intoxication and intolerance episodes. The most relevant, current state of knowledge regarding histamine's biochemical and health aspects is provided. Histamine levels are provided for 17 food groups, including 335 food types and 11,437 samples, allowing ...

Revisiting Eothyrsites holosquamatus Chapman (Trichiuroidea: Gempylidae), an Eocene gemfish from the Burnside Mudstone, Dunedin, New Zealand. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The remains of a unique fossil bony fish were discovered in late Eocene (39.1–36.7 Ma: NZ Kaiatan stage) mudstone at Burnside near Dunedin, New Zealand in the 1930s and subsequently named and described by Frederick Chapman. He interpreted the type specimen as being a large‐scaled relative of the modern Thyrsites of the Gempylidae (Scombroidei:

We report the oldest fossil record of Istiophoridae from the Northern Alpine Foreland Basin (Western Paratethys) in Pucking, Austria (Lower Miocene, lower Aquitanian, ∼22.4 Ma). The studied specimen consists of fragments of five articulated vertebrae and a partially preserved second dorsal fin.

This study explores the diet of one of the world's most recognizable predators, the white shark. Dietary assessments are performed by genomic analysis of cloacal swabs collected from approximately 200 live sharks. Findings from this study provide insights into the trophic ecology and feeding behavior of the white shark and key marine resources ...

Abstract Minimising the unintended capture of fish, marine mammals, reptiles, seabirds and other marine organisms is an important component of responsible fisheries management and for stabilising declines and rebuilding populations of threatened species.

Abstract Early life survival is critical to successful replenishment of fish populations, and hypotheses developed under the Growth‐Survival Paradigm (GSP) have guided investigations of controlling processes. The GSP postulates that recruitment depends on growth and mortality rates during early life stages, as well as their duration, after which the ...

We have developed a workflow that evaluates the current status of GenBank for marine fishes. For a given combination of species and barcodes, a gap analysis is performed and potentially erroneous sequences are identified. Besides providing a tool for reference database curation, this study confirms the 14 need to increase 12S rRNA reference sequences ...

A synthetic control approach to estimate the effect of total allowable catches in the high seas
Abstract Total allowable catch restrictions (hereafter referred to as catch quotas) play an important role in maintaining healthy fish stocks. While studies have identified a positive relationship between catch quota implementation and improved stock status, these methods are subject to selection bias as catch quotas are typically applied to stocks ...

Abstract Shortfin Mako Isurus oxyrinchus are ecologically and economically important apex predators throughout the global oceans. The eastern North Pacific Ocean contains several coastal nurseries for this species, where juveniles can forage and grow until venturing into offshore pelagic habitats, where seasonal migration and reproduction occurs ...

Abstract The concept of a ‘vertical ambush corridor’ is herein introduced to marine ecosystem science. In the open ocean, adequate physical cover from which to launch an unanticipated ambush attack is generally lacking. An available alternative is for a predator to channel its attack vertically upward from below, rendering an unlighted approaching ...
