Chromosomes of Japanese Starfishes [PDF]
Zoological Science, 2002 We developed a method for preparing starfish chromosomes from embryos. Blastulae were treated with colchicine (0.2-4.0 mg/ml), dissociated into single blastomeres by pippeting, swollen with 7% sodium citrate, and fixed with methanol: acetic acid (3:1). The fixed cells were dropped on a slide and air-dried.

Advances in Double‐Stranded DNA Targeting Technologies
Exploration, EarlyView.Double‐stranded DNA (dsDNA) plays a crucial role in genetic information storage and disease management, but its inherent stability limits access to internal bases. To overcome this challenge, various high‐specificity molecular targeting technologies have been developed to destabilize the DNA structure.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Ocean acidification and ocean warming compromise the capacity of calcifying marine organisms to generate and maintain their skeletons. While many marine calcifying organisms precipitate low-Mg calcite or aragonite, the skeleton of echinoderms consists of

Nucleation of Pb starfish clusters on the five-fold Al-Pd-Mn quasicrystal surface [PDF]
, 2009 The nucleation of Pb clusters on the five-fold Al-Pd-Mn quasicrystal surface has been investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and ab initio calculations based on density-functional theory (DFT).

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.Embryos are particularly sensitive to thermal challenge. Antarctic fish embryos raised at projected Southern Ocean temperatures hatch during the winter, have a high incidence of morphological abnormalities, have shorter body lengths, and express genes indicative of cellular stress.
