Isoelectric focusing in polyacrylamide gel was used to establish an identification archive of fish species belonging to the orders Pleuronectiformes, or flat fish, and Gadiformes, or gadoid fish. The 2 orders include species of different commercial value and interest that are frequently requested in European fish markets, but are susceptible to substitution either because they are morphologically similar or because they arrive on the markets already filleted or sliced. The sarcoplasmic protein profiles are species-specific and reproducible. The use of densitometry and image analysis coupled with a simple computer program overcomes the subjective evaluation of the patterns, making it possible to identify species correctly.

The Peruvian grunt, , is beginning its domestication as a candidate species for marine aquaculture. The optimal management of fingerling production requires precise knowledge on early development. Herein, we report the methodology for capturing and conditioning wild specimens to find a viable broodstock.

Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a powerful method to comprehensively overlook gene expression profiles of individual cells in various tissues, providing fundamental datasets for classification of cell types and further functional analyses. Here we adopted scRNA-seq analysis for the zebrafish olfactory sensory neurons which respond to water-borne odorants and pheromones to elicit various behaviors crucial for survival and species preservation. Firstly, a single-cell dissociation procedure of the zebrafish olfactory rosettes was optimized by using cold-active protease, minimizing artifactual neuronal activation.

Radiation risk through seafood consumption is a big public concern under the discharge of nuclear contaminated water. Plutonium is an important radionuclide in view of radiation risk due to its high radiological and chemical toxicity, as well as consistent presence in the environment. The distribution and level of plutonium isotopes (Pu, Pu) in marine biota collected along the coast of China in 2022-2023 were investigated.

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the marine environment and impact organisms at multiple levels. Understanding their actual effects on wild populations is urgently needed. This study develops a toolkit to monitor changes in gene expression induced by MPs in natural environments, focusing on filter-feeding and bioindicator species from diverse ecological and taxonomic groups.
