Morphology, ultrastructure and immunocytochemistry of Hypnea cervicornis and Hy...
Miguel, Thaiz Batista Azevedo Rangel; Schmidt, Eder C.; Bouzon, Zenilda Laurita; Nascimento, Fernando E.P.; Cunha, Maura da; Fernandes, Saulo PiredaBased on their morphological and physiological features, red algae comprise a complex and variable group of multiple genera, including Hypnea. In particular, the genus Hypnea J.V. Lamouroux (Cystocloniaceae, Rhodophyta) consists of approximately 54 species, including Hypnea cervicornis and H. musciformis. Lectins were described for both species; however, the localization of these proteins is still unclear. Ther...
In vitro evaluation of antioxidant activity of methanolic extracts obtained fro...
Lima, Rebeca Larangeira; Pires-Cavalcante, Kelma Maria dos S.; Alencar, Daniel Barroso; Viana, Francisco Analdo; Sampaio, Alexandre HolandaThe aim of the present research was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of six species of marine algae (Caulerpa cupressoides, Ulva fasciata, Amansia multifida, Cryptonemia crenulata, Dictyota dichotoma and Sargassum vulgare) collected in 2011 at Paracuru Beach, Ceará State, Brazil. Methanol extracts were prepared from oven-dried algae and used to measure total phenolic content (TPC) using the Folin- Ciocalteu...
Intraspecific diversification of the red snapper Lutjanus purpureus Poey in Nor...
Sousa Júnior, Josemar Pereira de; Viana, Maria Selma Ribeiro; Saker-Sampaio, SilvanaThe red snapper, Lutjanus purpureus Poey (Perciformes, Lutjanidae), is captured along the North and Northeast coast of Brazil. It consists of one of the main fishing resources of these areas, being considered economically important as source of exchange value. This work has verified the occurrence of intro-specific diversification of the red snapper in the North and Northeast of Brazil. A total of 556 individua...
