Thiodiglycol, the hydrolysis product of sulfur mustard: Analysis of in vitro biotransformation by mammalian alcohol dehydrogenases using nuclear magnetic resonance
TOXICOLOGY AND APPLIED PHARMACOLOGY, 213(3), 207–215.
author keywords: sulfur mustard; thiodiglycol; in vitro metabolism; alcohol dehydrogenase; NMR
MeSH headings : Alcohol Dehydrogenase / metabolism; Animals; Biotransformation; Horses; Humans; Hydrolysis; Isoenzymes / metabolism; Liver / enzymology; Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy; Mustard Gas / metabolism; Sulfhydryl Compounds / metabolism
TL;DR:
The use of proton NMR to monitor the oxidative reaction with structural confirmation by independent synthesis allowed us to establish the ultimate product, 2-hydroxyethylthioacetic acid, and to identify an intermediate equilibrium mixture consisting of 2-Hydroxy methylthioacetaldehyde, 2,2'-bis- Hydroxyethylsulfide hydrate and the cyclic 1,4-oxathian-2-ol.

Intraspecific variability: an important consideration in forming generalisations about toxigenic algal species
Burkholder, J. M., & Glibert, P. M. (2006, September). AFRICAN JOURNAL OF MARINE SCIENCE, Vol. 28, pp. 177–180.
author keywords: harmful algae; intraspecific variability; strains; toxigenic
TL;DR:
Findings from published studies on intraspecific variability in toxicity show that different, often opposite, interpretations at the species level would have resulted from consideration of individual strains, highlighting the importance of including multiple strains in research to advance understanding about toxigenic algal species.

MeSH headings : Animals; Biodiversity; Conservation of Natural Resources; Cyprinidae / growth & development; Cyprinidae / physiology; North Carolina; Population Dynamics; Rivers; Water Pollutants, Chemical / adverse effects; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis; Water Pollution / adverse effects; Water Pollution / analysis
TL;DR:
A generalized hazard assessment showed that certain sites exhibited trends in cumulative contaminant presence with reduced fish survival and growth, thereby enabling the identification of the existing riverine habitat most suitable for reintroduction or population augmentation of this endangered fish.

Progress toward year-round spawning of southern flounder broodstock by manipulation of photoperiod and temperature
JOURNAL OF THE WORLD AQUACULTURE SOCIETY, 37(3), 256–272.
TL;DR:
Artificial control of daylength enabled precise control of gonadal recrudescence and year-round spawning in southern flounder without adverse effects on the quality of eggs and larvae and will improve availability of seedstock for commercial aquaculturists.

Evaluation of the ecological compatibility of butterfly peacock cichlids and largemouth bass in Puerto Rico reservoirs
TRANSACTIONS OF THE AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY, 135(2), 288–296.
TL;DR:
In reservoirs, largemouth bass spawning typically occurred 2–3 months before butterfly peacock cichlid spawning, which resulted in substantial size differences between the juveniles of the tributary of the Mississippi River, leading to lower survival and slower growth in length and weight.

Evaluation of DNA pooling for the estimation of microsatellite allele frequencies: A case study using striped bass (Morone saxatilis)
GENETICS, 173(2), 863–875.
MeSH headings : Alleles; Animals; Bass / genetics; Biometry; DNA / genetics; DNA / isolation & purification; Electrophoresis, Capillary; Gene Frequency; Linkage Disequilibrium; Microsatellite Repeats; Polymerase Chain Reaction
TL;DR:
Using striped bass and six multiplexed microsatellite markers, procedures for estimating allele frequencies by pooling DNA from multiple individuals, a method suggested as cost-effective relative to individual genotyping are evaluated and an unbiased estimator of Hardy–Weinberg disequilibrium coefficients is derived.

Effectiveness of biodiversity indicators varies with extent, grain, and region
BIOLOGICAL CONSERVATION, 132(4), 448–457.
author keywords: indicator taxa; scale; grain; extent; biodiversity hotspots
TL;DR:
Examination of correlations in species richness between each of seven taxa and total richness of the remaining six taxa at varying grains and extents in two regions of the US suggests planning based on indicator relationships developed in other geographic locations is risky, even if planning occurs at an equivalent grain and extent.

author keywords: gynogen; meiotic gynogenesis; hydrostatic pressure; southern flounder; black sea bass

Time keeping by the quail's eye: Cireadian regulation of melatonin production
GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY, 145(3), 232–236.
author keywords: circadian pacemaker; retina; Coturnix; serotonin
MeSH headings : 5-Hydroxytryptophan / pharmacology; Animals; Biological Clocks / physiology; Circadian Rhythm / physiology; Coturnix / physiology; Darkness; Eye / drug effects; Eye / metabolism; Eye / radiation effects; Light; Male; Melatonin / metabolism; Retina / drug effects; Retina / metabolism; Retina / radiation effects; Serotonin / pharmacology; Time Factors; Tissue Culture Techniques
