| comparison of methods for detection of erysipelothrix spp. and their distribution in some australasian seafoods. | for many years, erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae has been known to be the causative agent of the occupationally related infection erysipeloid. a survey of the distribution of erysipelothrix spp. in 19 australasian seafoods was conducted, and methodologies for the detection of erysipelothrix spp. were evaluated. twenty-one erysipelothrix spp. were isolated from 52 seafood parts. primary isolation of erysipelothrix spp. was most efficiently achieved with brain heart infusion broth enrichment followed ... | 2000 | 10788383 |
| dna metabarcoding for diet analysis and biodiversity: a case study using the endangered australian sea lion (neophoca cinerea). | the analysis of apex predator diet has the ability to deliver valuable insights into ecosystem health, and the potential impacts a predator might have on commercially relevant species. the australian sea lion (neophoca cinerea) is an endemic apex predator and one of the world's most endangered pinnipeds. given that prey availability is vital to the survival of top predators, this study set out to understand what dietary information dna metabarcoding could yield from 36 sea lion scats collected a ... | 2017 | 28770080 |
| transformations of arsenic in the marine environment. | it is ten years since arsenobetaine was first isolated from the western rock lobster palinurus cygnus. subsequently this naturally-occurring arsenical has been found in many species of marine animals contributing to the human diet. the identification of arsenic-containing ribofuranosides in algae and the production of dimethylarsinoylethanol from their anaerobic decomposition has allowed speculation on arsenic metabolism in marine organisms and has suggested a possible route to arsenobetaine fro ... | 1987 | 3556209 |
| changes in lipid and fatty acid composition of late larval and puerulus stages of the spiny lobster (panulirus cygnus) across the continental shelf of western australia. | the feeding of the late larval stages of the spiny lobster, panulirus cygnus, and the energy reserves used by the non-feeding post-larvae for crossing the continental shelf of western australia were examined through their lipid composition. lipid was a significant component of the biomass of all larval and post-larval samples (range 63-213 mg g(-1) of dry biomass). the fatty acid profiles of late stage larvae (8-9) suggest that they were feeding on salps and small crustaceans, such as euphausids ... | 2006 | 16361110 |
| isolation and preliminary toxicological evaluation of arsenobetaine - the water-soluble arsenical constituent from the hepatopancreas of the western rock lobster. | the water soluble arsenic compound present in the hepatopancreas of the western rock lobster (panulirus cygnus george) has been isolated as the reineckate salt and has been identified as arsenobetaine. intraperitoneal injection of arsenobetaine into mice at 500 mg kg-1 did not result in mortality, and no symptoms of poisoning were observed. mice treated with arsenobetaine at 360 mg kg-1 rapidly eliminated the compound in their excreta and no evidence was obtained for metabolic alteration. when t ... | 1983 | 6362002 |
