From Sea Cucumbers to Soft Robots: A Photothermal-Responsive Hydrogel Actuator with Shape Memory.
ACS Applied Materials and InterfacesSoft robotics has undergone considerable progress driven by materials that can effectively transduce external stimuli into mechanical actuation. Here, we report the development of a photothermal-responsive hydrogel actuator with shape memory capabilities

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2020
Microplastic pollution is an increasing problem in the marine environment. This study had three objectives: 1) determine if seagrass beds and adjacent sand flats in the Florida Keys differed in microplastics concentration, 2) determine if sea cucumbers ...

The search for natural products that can be used novel and effective pharmaceutical agents has gained much attention in natural product and pharmacology research. Among marine resources, marine animals have proven to be rich sources of interesting organic molecules, which have accumulated in them over years of evolution.

Characterizing the phospholipid composition of six edible sea cucumbers by NPLC-Triple TOF-MS/MS
, 2020An NPLC-Triple-TOF-MS/MS method was used to determine the composition of phospholipids (PLs) present within six sea cucumber species. The highest PL levels were obtained from the species Cucumaria frondosa (8.05 μmol/g).

Multitrophic integration of the tropical red seaweed Solieria filiformis with sea cucumbers and fish
, 2020Integrated multi-trophic aquaculture systems can be very complicated as they involve interactions between different fed and extractive organisms, where each organism can have different peaks of nutrient production or absorption and assimilation during ...

Adhesive properties of sea cucumber coelomoyctes
Biology of the Cell, 1992Summary— The adhesive properties of the coelomocytes of the sea cucumber, Holothuria polii, have been investigated by studying their ability to attach to glass coverslips in vitro, and their morphology examined by scanning electron microscopy. Both amoeboyctes and spherule cells in cell suspensions attached themselves to glass coverslips, but spreading

A review of the immune molecules in the sea cucumber
Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2015It is very important to identify and characterize the immune-related genes that respond to pathogens. Until recently, only some of the immune-related genes in sea cucumbers had been characterized. Their expression patterns after pathogen challenges have been analyzed via expressed sequence tag libraries, microarray studies and proteomic approaches ...

Spermiogenesis in the sea cucumber Holothuria Tubulosa
Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1975Ultrastructural studies have shown that the spermatozoon of the sea cucumber Holothuria tubulosa has many primitive features, among them the overall spherical shape of the nucleus, a poorly developed centriolar fossa, and a simple mitochondrial ring in the midpiece. The chromatin is not fully condensed and appears as contorted fibrils 200 A in diameter

Sea Urchins, Starfish, and Sea Cucumbers
1995Abstract Echinoderms (Phylum Echinodermata), which include sea urchins, starfish, brittle stars, and sea cucumbers, have a distinctive radial pattern which may take the form of five arms radiating from a central disc or a more globular or cylindrical shape, again with structures arranged in five rays (or multiples of five) (Fig. 12.1).
