Environmental biomonitoring by snails

Biomarkers, 2021
Background: Bio-indicator systems are vital in terms of monitoring of pollutants around the world. The impact of environmental change can be monitored by employing the responsive behaviour of snails.

Toxicity of engineered nanomaterials to aquatic and land snails: A scientometric and systematic review.

Chemosphere, 2020
The emerging growth of nanotechnology has attracted great attention due to its application in the parasite and intermediate host control. However, the knowledge concerning the mechanism of action (MoA) and toxicity of nanomaterials (NMs) to snails remain

Nanoplastic ingestion induces behavioral disorders in terrestrial snails: trophic transfer effectsviavascular plants

, 2020
This study investigated the transfer of plastic debris in a terrestrial environment from the soil to a plant (the mung bean, Vigna radiata), and then to a consumer (the African giant snail, Achatina fulica). Adverse effects of these plastic pollutants on

Uptake and adverse effects of polyethylene terephthalate microplastics fibers on terrestrial snails (Achatina fulica) after soil exposure.

Environmental Pollution, 2019
Recent studies have demonstrated the occurrence of microplastic fibers (MFs) in soil environments. To determine whether MFs are harmful for soil biota, we evaluated toxic effects on terrestrial snails (Achatina fulica) after 28 d exposure to polyethylene

Snail trail

ACM SIGGRAPH 2012 Art Gallery, 2012
A snail invents the wheel and goes through a cultural evolution to finally get back to its origin. The basic idea of the work is inspired by processes of exponential acceleration, which can be observed at different levels. Thus, the evolution of life process.

Snail “metabolic hormone” and snail parasite metabolism

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1970
Abstract 1. 1. An acetone extract of the liver of the snail Biomphalaria sudanica and tryptamine stimulate oxygen uptake in the daughter sporocysts of an unknown plagiorchioid cercariae. 2. 2. The same extract stimulates oxygen uptake Schistosoma mansoni but does not affect lactic acid production or glucose uptake in these worms. 3.

A Systematic Revision of the Land Snails of the Western Ghats of India

Tropical Natural History, 2014
The Western Ghats, the mountain chain running along the western coastline of India, has a phylogenetically-diverse land-snail fauna dominated by endemic species. Although this fauna was well studied in British colonial times, little revisionary taxonomic

Semiconductor Snail Laser

CLEO/Europe - EQEC 2009 - European Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics and the European Quantum Electronics Conference, 2009
A key advantage that semiconductor ring lasers have over Fabry-Perot (FP) devices for relatively high power applications, is that they do not suffer from Catastrophic Optical Damage (COD) to the cleaved facets of the device bar[1]. However, the directional coupler (DC) section in the ring geometry, equivalent to the facet conditions in a FP laser ...
