Pacific white shrimp ( Litopenaeus vannamei ) are among the most important aquaculture species but are highly susceptible to Vibrio infections. Novel disease management strategies are necessary. Previous studies have reported that peracetic acid (PAA) is an effective disinfectant, but its application in shrimp aquaculture remains underexplored. This study aimed to determine the median lethal concentration (LC 50 ) of PAA at tw...
Purpose Many abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) patients develop intraluminal thrombus (ILT), but the role of ILT in AAA progression and rupture is poorly understood. Methods To evaluate ILT in AAAs, we induced AAAs in C57Bl6/J mice via surgical application of topical elastase to the abdominal aorta below the renal arteries and administration of β-aminopropionitrile (BAPN) in drinking water. Ultrasound images of these AAAs were c...
SNAPSHOT USA 2024: Year 6 of the Coordinated National Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multi‐contributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of speci...
Fungal Panzootic Increasingly Threatens Temperate Amphibian Species While Impact Has Stabilised in Equatorial RegionsNARA Subscribed
Global amphibian declines outpace the loss of most organisms on Earth. The panzootic fungal disease chytridiomycosis, caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis ( Bd ), is widely regarded as a predominant driver behind amphibian biodiversity erosion. However, a comprehensive global‐scale analysis of the relationship between Bd and extinction risk remains lacking. Using a global database of Bd ‐detections and IUCN Red List extinc...
