abstract this study was performed to compare the efficiency of 6 microalgae namely dunaliella tertiolecta, tetraselmis suecica, chlorella sp., (green algae), nannochloropsis oculata, spirolina sp.(blue-green algae) cheatocerus sp. (diatoma),  and isochrices sp. (haptophytae) on the growth, survival and reproduction efficacy in artemia urmiana in laboratory conditions. artemia cysts were harvest...

Effects of Artemia urmiana enriched with ICES30/4 as a commercial emulsion of highly unsaturated fatty acid (HUFA) on growth, survival, salinity tolerance and fatty acid composition of the Persian sturgeon larvae were evaluated. Artemia enriched for two different time periods (12 and 24 hours) and non-enriched artemia were fed to A. persicus larvae (average initial wet weight 46.80± 2.03mg) dur...

The results of ecological monitoring the hypergaline lake Kulundinskoye Altai Territory in period 2021-2022 are presented. research was carried out form a comprehensive study abiotic factors reservoir (climatic features lake, temperature regime, salinity water), biological (species composition brackish-water zooplankton, its abundance), production and structural indicators gill-legged crustacea...

abstract: chitosan is a natural antimicrobial which is derived from non-toxic animal resources. this study investigated and compared the antimicrobial characteristics of chitosan which was extracted from shell of artemia cyst in the lake of urmia with the same commercial chitosan feature to that of crab shell from a.p.t firm in vietnam. the experiment was carried by means of two fulded method t...

We report the isolation and characterization of an engrailed gene in the crustacean Artemia franciscana. The Artemia gene spans a genomic region of 15 kilobases and the coding sequence is interrupted by two introns. It appears to be the only gene of the engrailed family present in the Artemia genome. The predicted engrailed-like protein is 349 amino acids long and contains several domains inclu...

Adults and nauplii of the brine shrimp, Artemia, together with Vibrio parahaemolyticus, were placed in sewage-contaminated sea-water which had been treated with chlorine dioxide (Hallox E-100TM) to test its potential as a disinfectant for salt water aquaculture. The nauplii were very susceptible to low concentrations of chlorine dioxide (47 micrograms/l Cl-), but the adults were slightly more r...

An increasing global population has meant aquaculture, one of the fastest growing food industry sectors, faces significant sustainability challenges as it tries to address rising protein demand. In many production is underpinned by fishmeal dietary ingredient, but this a finite resource with competing users from poultry and livestock industries. Alternatively, some (planktonic) aquatic species,...

In a biogeographical context, the term Macaronesia broadly embraces the North Atlantic archipelagos of the Azores, Madeira, Selvagens, the Canary Islands, and Cape Verde. The peculiar arid climatic conditions in some of these places have led to the development of marine salt exploitations, which can be counted among the hypersaline habitats of the brine shrimp Artemia (Branchiopoda, Anostraca)....

Artemia is one of the most conspicuous invertebrates associated with aquaculture. It can be considered as a model organism, offering numerous advantages for comprehensive and multidisciplinary studies using morphologic or molecular methods. Since DNA extraction is an important step of any molecular experiment, a new and a rapid method of DNA extraction from adult Artemia was described in this s...
