On the metabolism of carotenoids in the crustacean Artemia salina.
نویسنده
چکیده
Die Zusammensetzung und der Stoffwechsel der Carotinoide in adulten Exemplaren von Artemia salina wurden untersucht. Unabhängig von der Fütterung mit carotinoidfreier Hefe, mit an Oxicarotinoiden reicher Nahrung oder mit Oxocarotinoid-haltigen Algen lassen sich als Hauptpigmente Canthaxanthin (4.4'-Dioxo-/?-carotin) und Echinenon (4-Oxo-/?-carotin) nachweisen. Daneben wur den in einer Artemia-Probe Astacin (SAS'^'-Tetraoxo-^-carotin) und 3.4.4'-Trioxo-/?-carotin gefun den. Außerdem konnten in geringen Konzentrationen einige der entsprechenden Oxiverbindungen (4-Oxi-, 4.4'-Dioxi-, 3.4.3'.4'-Tetraoxi-/?-carotin) identifiziert werden. Diese Ergebnisse sprechen da für, daß die Oxocarotinoide End-, nicht Zwischenprodukte im Stoffwechsel der untersuchten Krebse sind.

متن کاملChronic toxicity bioassay with populations of the crustacean Artemia salina exposed to the organophosphate diazinon.
A chronic toxicity bioassay was conducted with the microcrustacean Artemia salina as the testing organism for the toxic organophosphate diazinon in order to determine if the species is an appropriate indicator of pollution in aquatic environments. Tests of animal exposure to different concentrations of the toxicant were performed for 24, 48 and 72 hours after larvae hatching. Registered mortali...

Because of limitations of production of unicellular green algae (especially in large volumes), this study aimed to culture Artemia using three sources of cheap agricultural by-products that were coupled with small amounts of unicellular algae Dunaliella salina. The results of growth and survival, biomass production, Individual wet weight, wet and ash percent, FCR and SGR and nutritional value o...
متن کاملThe sequence of the 5.8 S ribosomal RNA of the crustacean Artemia salina. With a proposal for a general secondary structure model for 5.8 S ribosomal RNA.
We report the primary structure of 5.8 S rRNA from the crustacean Artemia salina. The preparation shows length heterogeneity at the 5'-terminus, but consists of uninterrupted RNA chains, in contrast to some insect 5.8 S rRNAs, which consist of two chains of unequal length separated in the gene by a short spacer. The sequence was aligned with those of 11 other 5.8 S rRNAs and a general secondary...

Secondary metabolites from Bupleurum salicifolium were tested against viruses, Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, the yeast Candida albicans, the nematodes Globodera pallida and G. rostochiensis, the insect Spodoptera littoralis and the crustacean Artemia salina. These compounds were also tested against tumoral and non-tumoral cell lines. The polyacetylene 8S-heptadeca-2(Z)-9(Z)-diene-4,...
