Modeling growth on the cannonball jellyfish Stomolophus meleagris based on a multi-model inference approach

Hydrobiologia, 2020
Worldwide catches of cannonball jellyfish Stomolophus meleagris (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) have increased during the last years; nevertheless, this species still lacks updated biological knowledge for its management. This research proposes that the individual growth pattern for jellyfish can be estimated in the absence of age readings through cohort follow ...

Anti-Melanogenic Activities of Collagen Peptides from Jellyfish (Stomolophus meleagris)

Advanced Materials Research, 2011
Collagen was extracted from jellyfish (Stomolophus meleagris) and hydrolyzed to prepare collagen peptides. Three fractions (JCP-1<1kDa, 1kDa3kDa) were collected by ultrafiltration from jellyfish collagen peptides and inhibitory abilities of melanogenesis were evaluated using cultured B16 melanoma cells.

Effects of purified components of jellyfish toxin (Stomolophus meleagris) on active sodium transport

Toxicon, 1975
Abstract Using preparative isoelectric focusing and discontinuous membrane partition chromatography, three fractions which alter sodium transport were isolated from venom of the jellyfish Stomolophus meleagris . A fraction which inhibited sodium transport was partially purified and found to possess a molecular weight of approximately 50,000 and an ...

Exploring the feasibility of developing novel gelatin powders from salted, dried cannonball jellyfish (Stomolophus meleagris)

Food Bioscience, 2021
Abstract Cannonball jellyfish, often commercialized as salted, dried jellyfish (SDJ), is an emerging fishery in the USA and a great source of collagen, which can be utilized for developing novel marine gelatin powders. The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of producing gelatin powders with gelling properties from SDJ using a mild ...

Enzymatic activities of venom from the jellyfishStomolophus meleagris

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1972
Abstract 1. Lyophilized venom from the nematocysts of the jellyfish Stomolophus meleagris was tested for enzymatic activity on twenty-eight substrates commonly hydrolyzed by many animal toxins. 2. Of the twenty-eight substrates tested, twelve were hydrolyzed.

Inorganic Constituents in Fresh and Processed Cannonball Jellyfish (Stomolophus meleagris)

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 1996
Cannonball jellyfish (Stomolophus meleagris) from the Gulf of Mexico has been under investigation as a potential source to meet the market demand for jellyfish food in Asia. Traditionally, jellyfish are processed by curing fresh jellyfish with salt and alum, and then the cured jellyfish are desalted in water before consumption.

Preliminary Characterization of a Blue Pigment Extracted from “Cannon Ball” Jellyfish Stomolophus meleagris

Russian Journal of Marine Biology, 2018
Due to consumers’demand for natural pigments new sources have been explored, the marine environment among others. This paper studied the optimal extraction conditions and preliminary characterized a blue pigment obtained from Stomolophus meleagris jellyfish. Specimens were collected from State of Sonora seashore, at the Gulf of California, Mexico.

Temporal and spatial distribution of the cannonball jellyfish Stomolophus meleagris in the South Atlantic Bight, USA

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2023
The cannonball jellyfishStomolophus meleagrisis one of the most abundant scyphozoan jellyfish in the South Atlantic Bight (SAB) of the southeastern USA. Like many scyphozoan jellyfish, cannonball jellies have high interannual variability and little is known about the environmental drivers of their distribution and phenology.

Cannonball Jellyfish (Stomolophus meleagris) as a Food Resource

Journal of Food Science, 1988
ABSTRACT A pilot plant process was developed to produce salted dried jellyfish product from cannonball jellyfish ( Stomolophus meleagris ). Processed products containing an average of 68% moisture, 5.5% protein, 26% ash and 25% salt were obtained by brining with different ...

In depth analysis of the in vivo toxicity of venom from the jellyfish Stomolophus meleagris

Toxicon, 2014
Jellyfish Stomolophus meleagris, a synonym of Nemopilema nomurai, which has often bloomed in the China Sea in recent years, is becoming an increasing threat to human health and life as a result of its strong toxicity. Each year, hundreds of thousands of people were stung, especially in the high season, and the victims suffered itch, edema, myalgia ...
