Disseminated neoplasia in cockles Cerastoderma edule: ultrastructural characterisation and effects on haemolymph cell parameters.
Disseminated neoplasia (DN) has been detected in cockles from various beds in Galicia (NW Spain). A study was performed to characterise cockle neoplastic cell ultrastructure and to evaluate the effect of this disease at different severity stages on various haemolymph cell parameters. Examination of cockle neoplastic cells with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed round shapes and a lac...
متن کاملPotential use of fatty acid profiles of the adductor muscle of cockles (Cerastoderma edule) for traceability of collection site
Geographic traceability of seafood is key for controlling its quality and safeguarding consumers' interest. The present study assessed if the fatty acid (FA) profile of the adductor muscle (AM) of fresh cockles (Cerastoderma edule) can be used to discriminate the origin of specimens collected in different bivalve capture/production areas legally defined within a coastal lagoon. Results suggest ...
متن کاملEmergence pattern and spatial distribution of the common cockle Cerastoderma edule
When groups of freshly collected cockles Cerastodema edule L. were transferred to laboratory conditions and exposed to cycles of tldal emersion and immersion and a light regune of 12 h light. l 2 h dark, up to 40% of the group emerged onto the surface of the substratum during emersion at the onset of darkness. This pattern of emergence decreased in intensity from 37% to 10% of all individuals e...
متن کاملA growth model of the cockle (Cerastoderma edule L.) tested in the Oosterschelde estuary (The Netherlands)
We present an ecophysiological model of the bivalve Cerastoderma edule that simulates individual growth and reproduction under ambient conditions in temperature and food availability in the Oosterschelde estuary, SW Netherlands. The model contains feedback loops in the uptake and metabolism of food and in the partitioning of carbon to the internal state variables: somatic tissue, storage, organ...
متن کاملCell-free transmission of a haemic neoplasm in the cockle Cerastoderma edule.
A haemic neoplasm occurs in populations of the common cockle Cerastoderma edule L. along the coast of Ireland. The morphology, epizootiology and distribution of the disease have previously been described. The aetiology of the neoplasm is unknown. In this study transmission of the neoplasm between cockles was accomplished using both whole neoplastic cells and neoplastic cell-free homogenates whi...
