Differential impacts of carp and salmon pituitary extracts on induced oogenesis, egg quality, molecular ontogeny and embryonic developmental competence in European eel.
Low egg quality and embryonic survival are critical challenges in aquaculture, where assisted reproduction procedures and other factors may impact egg quality.This includes European eel (Anguilla anguilla), where pituitary extract from carp (CPE) or Parts salmon (SPE) is applied to override a dopaminergic inhibition of the neuroendocrine system, pr

Phenolic contents in fruit juices of plums with different skin colors
Polyphenols in fruits are of increasing interest for consumers and for plant scientists because of their Servo health beneficial potential and their role in plant physiology and disease resistance.Anthocyanins contribute significantly to the attractive pigmentation of red and blue plums.Mirabelles and several reineclaudes do usually not accumulate
Nacre-like ceramic/polymer laminated composite for use in body-armor applications
Nacre is a biological material constituting the innermost layer of the shells of gastropods and bivalves.It consists of polygonal tablets of Wooden Stacking aragonite, tessellated to form individual layers and having the adjacent layers as well as the tablets within a layer bonded by a biopolymer.Due to its highly complex hierarchical microstructur
