چکیده

Abstract In the present study, biochemical composition of some Echinodermata (Holothuroidea, Echinoidea) from Red Sea, Egypt was investigated. The results showed that highest percentage saturated fatty acids (SFA) in Holothuria nobilis and lowest recorded scabra. monounsaturated (MUFA) Pearsonothuria graeffei while atra. polyunsaturated (PUFA) omega-3 Stichopus hermanni however, Diadema setosum. omega-6 Bohadschia vitiensis where, addition, nonessential amino acid (NEAA) glycine were all species serine Essential (EAA) arginine cysteine lowest. All NEAA concentrations S. except proline. essential histidine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, leucine. latter high graeffei. Tyrosine, valine, threonine, hermanni. study proved sea cucumbers has great nutritional value.

Biologically Active Triterpene Glycosides from Sea Cucumbers (holothuroidea, Echinodermata)

Sea cucumbers are characterized by their content in holothurins, triterpenoid glycosides that are responsible for the toxicity of these echinoderms. Nearly 100 holothurins isolated in the last twenty years are grouped into three main aglycone structural types: 3p-hydrox>iiolost-9(ll)-ene, 3p-hydrox5*iolost-7-ene and nonholostane based aglycones. This communication offers a general view of the s...

Phylogeny of Holothuroidea (Echinodermata) inferred from morphology

Holothuroids, or sea cucumbers, are an abundant and diverse group of echinoderms with over 1400 species occurring from the intertidal to the deepest oceanic trenches. In this study, we report the first phylogeny of this class, based on a cladistic analysis of 47 morphological characters. We introduce several previously unconsidered synapomorphic characters, examine the relationships between rep...

Biomechanics of adhesion in sea cucumber cuvierian tubules (echinodermata, holothuroidea).

Several species of sea cucumbers, all belonging to a single family, possess a peculiar and specialized defense system, the Cuvierian tubules. It is mobilized when the animal is mechanically stimulated, resulting in the discharge of a few white filaments, the tubules. In seawater, the expelled tubules lengthen considerably and become sticky upon contact with any object. The adhesiveness of their...

Chemical composition of some seaweed from Mediterranean Sea coast, Egypt

This study pointed to the assessment of the chemical composition (F, Ca, Mg, Na, K, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Ni, Co, Cr, Cd, and carbohydrate) of different marine seaweeds (red, green, and brown) from the Egyptian Mediterranean Sea coast. The results showed that green seaweeds supplied better calcium sources than the red and brown ones. Also, red and brown seaweeds showed higher averages of Na and K tha...

Isolation and Characterization of Adhesive Secretion from Cuvierian Tubules of Sea Cucumber Holothuria forskåli (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea)

The sea cucumber Holothuria forskåli possesses a specialized system called Cuvierian tubules. During mechanical stimulation white filaments (tubules) are expelled and become sticky upon contact with any object. We isolated a protein with adhesive properties from protein extracts of Cuvierian tubules from H. forskåli. This protein was identified by antibodies against recombinant precollagen D wh...
