PCR analysis generated on the genetic data showed that the geographic hairtail (Trichiurus lepturus) population from Korea in the Yellow Sea was more or less separated from geographic hairtail population from China in the South Sea. The average bandsharing value (mean±SD) within hairtail population from Korea showed 0.859±0.031, whereas 0.752±0.039 within population from China. Also, bandsharin...

In recent years, chitosan nanoparticles have been studied widely for protein delivery. In this study, Hemiscorpius lepturus (HL) venom was encapsulated in chitosan nanoparticles. The aim of the present work was to carry out a systematic study for preparing biocompatible and biodegradable nanoparticles for loading HL scorpion venom and to evaluate their potential as an antigen delivery system. I...

Trichiurus lepturus (ribbon fish) was collected from different spatial locations (south west (SW) coast edging the Arabian Sea and south east (SE) coast surrounding the Bay of Bengal of India) and seasons (pre-monsoon, monsoon and post-monsoon) during a continuous period of four years (2008 through 2011), and their edible muscles were studied for differential nutritional compositions of protein...

background: scorpions’ stings and their own mortalities place them among the most important health and medical problems. the dreadful features and especially their poisonous stings are considered a major cause of human stress and abhorrence/phobia. the current study aimed to study the scorpion fauna of ilam province, south western iran in order to manage scorpionism related problems. methods: i...
