چکیده
The population of Mediterranean monk seals off the coast of the western Sahara has recently suffered a sudden mortality. A morbillivirus was isolated post-mortem from the tissues of three seals1, and it has been pro-posed that the virus was the agent responsible. This conclusion is called into question by epidemiological, clinical, pathological and toxicological considerations. We suggest here that intoxication by algal toxins is a more likely cause of the deaths.

متن کاملPrestige Antibodies--monospecific antibodies designed for immunohistochemical analysis.
Well-characterized antibodies are essential tools for protein studies, global proteomics analysis, as well as for clinical diagnostics. However, although production of antibodies is a well-established process and a large number of antibodies are commercially available through many vendors, specific antibodies still do not exist for the majority of human proteins. An underlying factor limiting t...
