Identification of calconectin, a calcium‐binding protein specifically expressed by the mantle of Pinctada margaritifera [PDF]
Nacre or mother‐of‐pearl in the shell of Pinctada margaritifera is composed of 95–99% calcium carbonate and 1–5% organic matrix. In this study, we developed an original technique to characterize the genes differentially expressed in nacre‐forming cells (NFC) by combining suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH), to establish a cDNA subtractive ...

Precursor Mineral Phases of Forming Mollusk Shell Nacre: A Study of Hydrated Samples
Mineral, organic phase, and water are the essential components in mollusk shell nacre formation. Their interplay is not well understood, because the hydrated material is difficult to observe at high resolution, under close to native conditions. Forming nacre is studied using environmental and cryo‐electron microscopy and hydrated ACC phases, together ...

Telaah morfometrik Pinctada margaritifera untuk pengembangan usaha budidaya
This study aimed to analyze the size of shell length, shell width and total weight of Pinctada margaritifera shells, and water quality parameters for the aquaculture development. Morphometric measurements include: shell length (PC), and shell width (LC), shell weight (BT).

GROWTH PATTERNS OF THE PEARL OYSTER Pinctada margaritifera IN NORTH SULAWESI WATERS
The pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera (Linnaeus, 1758) or black lip pearl oyster is a marinebivalves with important economic value. This Indo-Pacific species is found in abundance in the waters of North Sulawesi, but cultivation activities have not been optimized.

ABSTRACT Relaxants are used in abalone aquaculture to facilitate handling, transport and grading stock, with minimal injury, stress, immune suppression and mortality. Benzocaine has been commonly used as an abalone relaxant but negative behavioural responses to exposure have been observed, and in some countries it has a withholding period, precluding ...
