Stable isotope analyses—A method to distinguish intensively farmed from wild frogs
Consumption of frog legs is increasing worldwide, with potentially dramatic effects for ecosystems. More and more functioning frog farms are reported to exist. However, due to the lack of reliable methods to distinguish farmed from wild-caught individuals, the origin of frogs in the international trade is often uncertain. Here, we present a new methodological approach to this problem. We invest...
متن کاملCombining stable isotope analyses and geolocation to reveal kittiwake migration
Determining migratory strategies of seabirds is still a major challenge due to their relative inaccessibility. Small geolocators are improving this knowledge, but not all birds can be tracked. Stable isotope ratios in feathers can help us to understand migration, but we still have insufficient baseline knowledge for linking feather signatures to movements amongst distinct water masses. To under...
متن کاملa paradigm shift away from method-wise teaching to strategy-wise teaching: an investigation of reconstructive strategy versus communicative strategy
چکیده: هدف اصلی این مطالعه ی توصیفی تحقیقی در حقیقت تلاشی پساروش-گرا به منظور رسیدن به نتیجه ای منطقی در انتخاب مناسبترین راهکار آموزشی بر گرفته از چارچوب راهبردی مطرح شده توسط والدمر مارتن بوده که به بهترین شکل سازگار و مناسب با سامانه ی آموزشی ایران باشد. از این رو، دو راهکار آموزشی، راهکار ارتباطی و راهکار بازساختی، برای تحقیق و بررسی انتخاب شدند. صریحاً اینکه، در راستای هدف اصلی این پژوهش، ر...
15 صفحه اولEmerging Pathogen in Wild Amphibians and Frogs (Rana catesbeiana) Farmed for International Trade
Chytridiomycosis is an emerging disease responsible for a series of global declines and extinctions of amphibians. We report the causative agent, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, in North American bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana) farmed for the international restaurant trade. Our findings suggest that international trade may play a key role in the global dissemination of this and other emerging infe...
متن کاملRapid liquid chromatographic method to distinguish wild salmon from aquacultured salmon fed synthetic astaxanthin.
Analytical methods are needed to determine the presence of color additives in fish. We report a liquid chromatographic (LC) method developed to identify the synthetic form of the color additive astaxanthin in salmon, based on differences in the relative ratios of the configurational isomers of astaxanthin. The distributions of configurational isomers of astaxanthin in the flesh of wild Atlantic...
