Abstract:

Many marine biology studies depend on field work on ships or remote sampling locations where sophisticated sample preservation techniques (e.g., high-pressure freezing) are often limited or unavailable. Our aim was to optimize the ultrastructural preservation of marine invertebrates, especially when working in the field. To achieve chemically-fixed material of the highest quality, we compared the resulting ultrastructure of gill tissue of the musselMytilus eduliswhen fixed with differently buffered EM fixatives for marine specimens (seawater, cacodylate and phosphate buffer) and a new fixative

Introduction: The health hazards resulting from exposure to formalin have given rise to the need of developing safer alternative fixatives. Almond oil has been widely used in the aromatherapy and cosmetic industry for its good penetrating and skin-rejuvenating properties, whereas vitamin E is a widely known anti-oxidant. The present study aimed to test the fixative efficacy of almond oil with vitamin E as compared to formalin. Material and Methods: The present study was conducted on 42 tissue specimens obtained by crown lengthening procedure or other minor surgical procedures.

In order to curb this trend, especially from industrial effluents, a non – toxic, biodegradable and environmentally compatible dye from nature have to be sourced. In view of these, the root of anacardium occidentale was extracted of its dye and applied on fabrics alone and in the presence of mordants and also applied as colorant on food, cosmetics and alcoholic drinks. The root of anacardium occidantale collected was dried at room temperature and pulverized. 200g was weighed and extra

Abstract:

Research interest in a non-protein amino acid β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) arose due to the discovery of a connection between exposure to BMAA and the occurrence of neurodegenerative diseases. Previous reviews on this topic either considered BMAA as a risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases or focused on the problems of detecting BMAA in various environmental samples. Our review is devoted to a wide range of fundamental biological problems related to BMAA, including the molecular mechanisms of biological activity of BMAA and the complex relationships between producers of BMAA and the en

Demonstration of gross lesions for educational purposes is often based on wet specimens, preserved in formalin, that emit hazardous formaldehyde vapors. This study is a pioneering attempt to plastinate pathological lesions in animal tissues using the economical Thermocol instead of costly resins, viz. silicon, epoxy and polypropylene. Six bovine heart samples, showing pathological lesions, were fixed with 5% formol saline, followed by dehydration in pure acetone, and impregnation with 15% Thermocol in organic solvent. Finally, curing of specimens was undertaken using Touchwood. Three gross les

The rising concentration of microplastics (MPs) in aquatic environments poses increasing ecological risks, yet their impacts on biological communities remain largely unrevealed. This study investigated how aminopolystyrene microplastics (PS-NH2) affect physiology and gene expression using the freshwater alga Navicula sp. as the test species. After exposing Navicula sp. to high PS-NH2 concentrations for 24 h, growth was inhibited, with the most significant effect seen after 48 h. Increasing PS-NH2 concentrations reduced chlorophyll content, maximum photochemical quantum yield (Fv/Fm), and the p

Among the prominent routes, this review epitomizes the reactions involving cycloaddition of epoxides with CO2 in producing cyclic carbonate. Cyclic carbonate has been widely used as a polar aprotic solvent, as an electrolyte in Li-ion batteries, and as precur

In Mexico and in the world, the metallurgical, petroleum and chemical industries, among others, generate large amounts of pollutants, which when deposited in dams or discharged into rivers, ponds or directly into aquifers generate serious problems for the environment. Biosorption is the phenomenon of passive uptake of metal ions with non-living organic materials, known as biomass, which are generally industrial waste. Active uptake with live biomass is called bioaccumulation. Biosorption is based on the property of some types of inactive or dead biomass to uptake and accumulate these elements
