Gamete quality and management for in vitro fertilisation in meagre (Argyrosomus regius)
(Elsevier, 2019-05-14)
The aquaculture of meagre (Argyrosomus regius) requires methods for the control of reproduction that enable the production of families from specific individuals for selective breeding programs. We ...
A new generation of recombinant polypeptides combines multiple protein domains for effective antimicrobial activity
(BMC, 2020-06-05)
Background
Although most of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), being relatively short, are produced by chemical synthesis, several AMPs have been produced using recombinant technology. However, AMPs could ...
A regionalised life cycle assessment model to globally assess the environmental implications of soil salinization in irrigated agriculture
(American Chemical Society, 2020-02-21)
We present a global, locally resolved life cycle assessment (LCA) model to assess the potential effects on soil quality due to the accumulation of water-soluble salts in the agricultural soil profile, ...
Effect of kaolin silver complex on the control of populations of Brettanomyces and acetic acid bacteria in wine
(Springer Verlag, 2018-03-19)
In this work, the effects of kaolin silver complex
(KAgC) have been evaluated to replace the use of SO2 for
the control of spoilage microorganisms in the winemaking
process. The results showed that ...
Ciguatoxin occurrence in food-web components of a Cuban Coral Reef Ecosystem: Risk-assessment implications
(MDPI, 2019-12-11)
In Cuba, ciguatera poisoning associated with fish consumption is the most commonly occurring non-bacterial seafood-borne illness. Risk management through fish market regulation has existed in Cuba for ...
Water UV-C treatment alone or in combination with peracetic acid: A technology to maintain safety and quality of strawberries
(Elsevier, 2020-09-11)
Disinfection of fruits is one of the most important steps since they are going to be eaten fresh-or minimally-processed. This step affects quality, safety, and shelf-life of the product. Despite being ...
Can the genetic background modulate the effects of feed additives? Answers from gut microbiome and transcriptome interactions in farmed gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) fed with a mix of phytogenics, organic acids or probiotics
(Elsevier, 2024-03-05)
The synergies between selective breeding and feed additives remain under-explored in farmed fish, despite their
sustainability. Reference (REF) and selected gilthead sea bream for growth (GS) were fed ...
Expression of genes related to long-chain (C18–22) and very long-chain (>C24) fatty acid biosynthesis in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) and Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) larvae: investigating early ontogeny and nutritional regulation
(Elsevier, 2020-01-11)
Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) have been extensively studied in aquaculture due to their importance for survival and development in teleosts. However, very long-chain polyunsaturated ...
Detection of Ostreopsis cf. ovata in environmental samples using an electrochemical DNA-based biosensor
(Elsevier, 2019-06-28)
Ostreopsis cf. ovata is a benthic microalga distributed in tropical and temperate regions worldwide which produces palytoxins (PlTXs). Herein, an electrochemical biosensor for the detection of this toxic ...
Development and validation of a maleimide-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection of tetrodotoxin in oysters and mussels
(Elsevier, 2017-08-18)
The recent detection of tetrodotoxins (TTXs) in puffer fish and shellfish in Europe highlights the necessity to monitor the levels of TTXs in seafood by rapid, specific, sensitive and reliable methods ...
