Nucleotide metabolism during brine shrimp embryogenesis.
Changes in the amounts of acid-soluble nucleotides during embryonic development of the encysted egg of the brine shrimp, Artemia salina, have been determined. Significant quantities of diguanosine tetraphosphate, the most abundant compound in the nucleotide pool, are apparently not utilized until hatching, at which time the amount falls precipitously. Diguanosine triphosphate, a homologue of th...
متن کاملSelenium biotransformations in an engineered aquatic ecosystem for bioremediation of agricultural wastewater via brine shrimp production.
An engineered aquatic ecosystem was specifically designed to bioremediate selenium (Se), occurring as oxidized inorganic selenate from hypersalinized agricultural drainage water while producing brine shrimp enriched in organic Se and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids for use in value added nutraceutical food supplements. Selenate was successfully bioremediated by microalgal metabolism into organi...
متن کاملAn Application of the Brine Shrimp Bioassay for General Screening of Brazilian Medicinal Plants
Extracts of eleven species of Brazilian flora were subjected to a bioscreening study to detect cytotoxic activity by the brine shrimp lethality bioassay. The plants studied were: Baccharis pseudotenuifolia, Baccharis ligustrina, Baccharis platypoda, Baccharis coridifolia, Polygala paniculata, Polygala sabulosa, Croton celtidifolius, Cyathea phalerata, Trichilia catigua, Eugenia uniflora and Sch...
متن کاملThe Brine Shrimp Artemia: Adapted to Critical Life Conditions
The brine shrimp Artemia is a micro-crustacean, well adapted to the harsh conditions that severely hypersaline environments impose on survival and reproduction. Adaptation to these conditions has taken place at different functional levels or domains, from the individual (molecular-cellular-physiological) to the population level. Such conditions are experienced by very few equivalent macro-plank...
متن کاملBrine shrimp lethality bioassay of selected Indian medicinal plants.
Ethanolic extracts of six Indian medicinal plants, piperine, guggulsterone E and guggulsterone Z were tested for cytotoxicity using brine shrimp lethality test. Piper longum showed most potent cytotoxic activity. Piperine, guggulsterone E and guggulsterone Z showed potent activity with LC(50) 2.4, 8.9 and 4.9, respectively.
