چکیده

The absolute configuration of the chiral center at the C15 position of a novel branched-chain fatty acid derived from a new ceramide isolated from the epiphytic dinoflagellate Coolia monotis was determined to be of R from by reversed-phase HPLC after cleavage to 12-methylpentadecanoic acid and subsequent conversion with the chiral fluorescent reagent, (1R,2R)-2-(2,3-anthracenedicarboximido)cyclohexanol.

Toxicity and Growth Assessments of Three Thermophilic Benthic Dinoflagellates (Ostreopsis cf. ovata, Prorocentrum lima and Coolia monotis) Developing in the Southern Mediterranean Basin

Harmful benthic dinoflagellates, usually developing in tropical areas, are expanding to temperate ecosystems facing water warming. Reports on harmful benthic species are particularly scarce in the Southern Mediterranean Sea. For the first time, three thermophilic benthic dinoflagellates (Ostreopsis cf. ovata, Prorocentrum lima and Coolia monotis) were isolated from Bizerte Bay (Tunisia, Mediter...

New scenario for speciation in the benthic dinoflagellate genus Coolia (Dinophyceae).

In this study, inter- and intraspecific genetic diversity within the marine harmful dinoflagellate genus Coolia Meunier was evaluated using isolates obtained from the tropics to subtropics in both Pacific and Atlantic Ocean basins. The aim was to assess the phylogeographic history of the genus and to clarify the validity of established species including Coolia malayensis. Phylogenetic analysis ...

Epiphytic dinoflagellates associated with ciguatera in the northwestern coast of Cuba.

The spatial and temporal abundance of epiphytic dinoflagellates associated with ciguatera was studied over two annual cycles (March 1999 to March 2000 and March 2001 to March 2002) in the northwestern coast of Cuba. From 14 species of macroalgae (Phaeophyta, Chlorophyta, and Rhodophyta), 1340 samples were obtained identifying seven species as potentially noxious; five of them are new reports fo...

Fatty acids of glycosphingolipids from pig blood fractions.

Four glycolipids have been isolated from three fractions of pig blood. The glycolipids were presumably cerebroside, diglycosyl ceramide, triglycosyl ceramide, and globoside. The blood fractions were erythrocytes and plasma high and low density lipoproteins. Fatty acid distributions were determined for each glycolipid as a means to assist in identifying relationships among the several glycolipid...
