PHYLOGENY, ANCESTRAL RANGES AND RECLASSIFICATION OF SAND DOLLARS

Phylogeny, ancestral ranges and reclassification of sand dollars

Abstract Classification of the Class Echinoidea is under significant revision in light of emerging molecular phylogenetic evidence.In particular, the sister-group relationships within the superorder Luminacea (Echinoidea: Irregularia) have been considerably updated.However, the placement of many families remains largely unresolved due to a series o

Development and Validation of a Liquid Chromatography High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry Method for the Simultaneous Determination of Mycotoxins and Phytoestrogens in Plant-Based Fish Feed and Exposed Fish

New protein sources in fish feed require the assessment of the carry-over potential of contaminants and anti-nutrients from feed ingredients into the fish, and the assessment of possible health risks for consumers.Presently, plant materials including wheat and legumes make up the largest part of aquafeeds, so evaluation of the transfer capabilities

The influence of silica-coated nanoscale titanium dioxide on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and carbonation resistance of cementitious materials

Nanomaterials possess great application prospects in improving the performance of cementitious materials.However, their high agglomeration hinders their efficient utilization in cementitious matrices.Consequently, surface modification has recently attracted attention as a method to enhance dispersibility.In this study, silica was employed to modify
