Occurrence and structural characterization of heparin from molluscs
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2005 Several invertebrate species contain variable amounts of one or more types of sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). At present it is well known the existence of a species-specific sulfated GAGs composition based on the relative amount and type of ...

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Environmental pollution resulting from the rapid increase in human population, urbanization, intensive use of chemicals in agriculture, and industrial development has reached a level that threatens natural life today. Trace elements are one of the most important factors causing significant levels of pollution in the environment and are added ...

Genomics, immune studies and diseases in bivalve aquaculture
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2012 Diseases are a critical bottleneck for the culture of bivalves causing important yield losses. The study of bivalve diseases has relied on histological techniques and has focused on pathogen morphology, the effect of external factors on the pathogens and

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.Small mammal survey tools are needed at airports to help inform aircraft strike‐risk management. We evaluated thermal optics and tracking tunnels as small mammal survey tools. We conclude that thermal optics would not be a viable survey tool for mouse‐sized mammals (19‐41 g) at airfields and other thick grass habitats unless grass height was maintained

Relationships between innate immunity in bivalve molluscs and environmental pollution
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2010 The immune system of invertebrates, such as molluscs consists of innate mechanisms very effective against antigens commonly present in the environment. However, these defense strategies could be altered by pollutants. This review is focused mainly on the

Hydrodynamic gradients affect facilitation in soft sediment communities
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study extends ecological theory on facilitation to marine soft‐sediment systems and offers insight into the functional role of habitat‐forming infauna. Abstract Positive species interactions, or facilitation, are fundamental drivers of ecological community assembly and stability.

Biologically active peptides in molluscs
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2016 The immune and neuroendocrine systems of invertebrates, as well as vertebrates, share a common pool of molecules that have been conserved throughout evolution. Now we add a new interface to this bidirectional interaction, demonstrating the involvement of
