13: Markers Of Decompression Stress Of Mass Stranded/Live Caught And Released Vs. Single Stranded Marine Mammals
نویسنده
چکیده
The long-term goal of this study is to develop a biomarker of decompression stress in cetaceans to better understand the link between anthropogenic interactions and barometric stress. We aim to analyze blood samples from captive, wild-caught, and stranded marine mammals in order to compare concentrations of Microparticles (MPs). If confirmed as an indicator of decompression stress, the use of MPs could be applied as a diagnostic tool for stranding events. Development of an effective diagnosis tool has significant implications to the military when the cause of strandings is in question.

متن کاملBubbles in live-stranded dolphins
Bubbles in supersaturated tissues and blood occur in beaked whales stranded near sonar exercises, and post-mortem in dolphins bycaught at depth and then hauled to the surface. To evaluate live dolphins for bubbles, liver, kidneys, eyes and blubber-muscle interface of live-stranded and capture-release dolphins were scanned with B-mode ultrasound. Gas was identified in kidneys of 21 of 22 live-st...
متن کاملDive, food, and exercise effects on blood microparticles in Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus): exploring a biomarker for decompression sickness.
Recent studies of stranded marine mammals indicate that exposure to underwater military sonar may induce pathophysiological responses consistent with decompression sickness (DCS). However, DCS has been difficult to diagnose in marine mammals. We investigated whether blood microparticles (MPs, measured as number/μl plasma), which increase in response to decompression stress in terrestrial mammal...
متن کاملEffect of Helium-Neon Laser and Sodium Hypochlorite on Calf Thymus Double-Stranded Deoxyribonucleic Acid Molecule: An in Vitro Experimental Study
Introduction: Low-energy helium-neon (He-Ne) laser beam lightis used in combination with sodium hypochlorite (Na2HOCl3) for clinical purposes. Regarding this, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of He-Ne laser (632.8 nm) and sodium hypochlorite on the calf thymus double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ctdsDNA) molecule. Materials and Methods: For the purpose of the study, ctdsDNA...
متن کاملUsing multivariate generalized linear latent variable models to measure the difference in event count for stranded marine animals
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The classification of marine animals as protected species makes data and information on them to be very important. Therefore, this led to the need to retrieve and understand the data on the event counts for stranded marine animals based on location emergence, number of individuals, behavior, and threats to their presence. Whales are g...
