Healing Activity of Sepia Officinalis Bone
Madagascar is a country renowned worldwide for its exceptional biodiversity and high level of endemism. Its fauna is of particular scientific interest in the search for new molecules of biopharmaceutical interest. Surveys carried out in the south-west region of this large island have revealed that S.

Batteries From Reused, Recycled, and Surplus Materials
Batteries can become more circular by combining reuse, direct recycling, metallurgical recovery, and material sourcing from industrial surplus streams. This Review highlights how recycled and waste‐derived metals, carbons, polymers, electrolytes, and active materials can be reintegrated into current and emerging batteries, while emphasizing design ...

Biodiversity of North Sea Pelagic Cephalopod Early Life Phases
ABSTRACT Cephalopods are increasing in biomass and abundance in the North Sea. In addition to their amplified importance for the ecosystem, they have also become a relevant resource for fisheries and landings are rising. Besides a growing knowledge about cephalopod biology, many gaps exist about the early life phases (ELP) of cephalopods. For the first

ABSTRACT The common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) is a resident species along the Portuguese mainland coast, yet knowledge of its stranding patterns and feeding ecology is scarce. This study presents a comprehensive assessment of strandings (n = 264, from 1980 to 2019) and feeding ecology based on stomach content analysis (n = 43 from 1997 to

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Steroidogenesis in the brain of Sepia officinalis and Octopus vulgaris
The presence of vertebrate-like steroids, steroidogenic enzymes and steroid receptors has been reported exclusively in cephalopods gonads. The role played by these steroids has been also recently investigated. We here give evidence of steroidogenic activity in the brain of cephalopods. The activity of two key steroidogenic enzymes: 3beta-hydroxysteroid
