Polymerase chain reaction-based method for the identification of Leishmania (Vi...
Prestes, Suzane Ribeiro; Guerra, Jorge Augusto de Oliveira; Romero, Gustavo Adolfo Sierra; Magalhães, Laylah Kelre Costa; Santana, Rosa Amelia GonçalvesIntroduction: in the Americas, mucosal leishmaniasis is primarily associated with infection by Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis. However, Leishmania (Viannia) guyanensis is another important cause of this disease in the Brazilian Amazon. In this study, we aimed at detecting Leishmaniadeoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) within paraffin-embedded fragments of mucosal tissues, and characterizing the infecting parasite spe...
Ecophysiological responses of juvenile seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) exposed t...
Luísa Maulvault, Ana; Barbosa, Vera; Alves, Ricardo; Custódio, Ana; Anacleto, Patrícia; Repolho, Tiago; Pousão Ferreira, Pedro; Rosa, RuiThe ecotoxicological effects of methylmercury (MeHg) exposure have been intensively described in literature. Yet, it is still unclear how marine biota will respond to the presence of MeHg under climate change, namely ocean warming. The present study aimed to investigate, for the first time, fish condition [Fulton's K index (K), hepatosomatic index (HIS) and brain-to-body mass ratio (BB-ratio)] and several stres...
Bioaccumulation and elimination of mercury in juvenile seabass (Dicentrarchus l...
Maulvault, Ana Luísa; Custódio, Ana; Anacleto, Patrícia; Repolho, Tiago; Pousão, Pedro; Nunes, Maria Leonor; Diniz, Mário; Rosa, Rui; Marques, AntónioWarming is an expected impact of climate change that will affect coastal areas in the future. These areas are also subjected to strong anthropogenic pressures leading to chemical contamination. Yet, the consequences of both factors for marine ecosystems, biota and consumers are still unknown. The present work aims to investigate, for the first time, the effect of temperature increase on bioaccumulation and elim...
