Marine‐Derived Type I Collagen From Scyliorhinus canicula: Extraction, Characterization, and Biomedical Applications

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Marine‐derived type I collagen is extracted from Scyliorhinus canicula skin and characterized by physicochemical and morphological analyses. The collagen exhibits excellent biocompatibility, promotes wound healing, reduces inflammatory mediators, and inhibits melanogenesis.

Composition and abundance of octocorals in the Sea of Marmara, where the Mediterranean meets the Black Sea

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2015
Species composition and abundance of octocoral assemblages were investigated in the Sea of Marmara, which forms the connection between the Mediterranean and the Black Seas, two semi-enclosed seas with peculiar oceanographic conditions. Fourteen octocoral

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Megaturbidites and the late Quaternary regional sedimentology of the eastern and central Mediterranean Sea

open access: yes, 2000
The late Quaternary sedimentology of the Mediterranean is controlled primarily by fluctuations in global climate and sea level, and by an overriding compressive regime between the Eurasian and African plates. Local variations in this convergence have led

Application of pyrolysis-GC/MS for the characterisation of suspended particulate organic matter in the Mediterranean Sea: a comparison with the Black Sea

open access: yes, 2000
Suspended particulate organic matter (SPOM) both from the oligotrophic Mediterranean and from the more productive Black Sea has been analysed by pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) and by such conventional techniques as elemental ...

Over the edge: Empirical evidence for the cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection maintains that larger neonates and smaller birth canals confer a positive selective advantage until labor becomes obstructed and vaginal delivery is no longer possible, eliciting an abrupt reduction in fitness.

Evolutionary radiation of large‐bodied gorgonopsians from the lower Abrahamskraal formation of South Africa

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The middle Permian represents a critical interval in therapsid evolution, when gorgonopsians emerged as some of the first specialized apex predators within terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their significance, the early diversification of Gorgonopsia in Gondwana remains poorly understood due to scarcity and fragmentary material.
