Lake Chapala’s fisheries have been the support of an important economic activity for hundreds of years. At the end of the XIX century, in addition to the fishers, the processing industry employed hundreds of families in the drying and salting of fish. The later introduction of carpe and tilapia forced...
The fisheries supply chains integrate multiple and heterogeneous agents linked through commercial (buyer/seller) relationships. In a large and competitive trade market, every agent can choose his/her partners, but the functioning of the supply chain depends on the aggregation of every agent's decisions that configures the global network of relationships. In...
Fish consumption in Mexico is considered low (around 12 kg per person per year) and non-homogeneously distributed across the country. One of the reasons for this situation is the scarcity of wholesale selling sites. In this context, the Mercado del Mar (MM), located in Guadalajara city, Jalisco, is the second...
1. The recommended allowance of the National Reasearch
Council, 100 mg ascorbic acid for the 18-year-old boys and 80 mg
for the 16 to 19-year-old girls, did not maintain mean plasma ascorbic
acid values at levels as high as the respective saturation means. For
the girls all the mean values...
Along the southern Sicilian coast (Central Mediterranean Sea), Sciacca harbor is the most important landing port for small pelagic fish species (manly anchovies and sardines) [1, 2]. This landing side accounts for about 2/3 of total catch in GFCM-FAO Geographical Sub-Area 16 (South of Sicily), where two operational units (OU)...

Phospholipase C-β (PLC-β) isozymes are key effectors in G protein-coupled
signaling pathways. Prior research suggested that some isoforms of PLC-β may exist
and function as dimers, but little is known about dimerization of PLC-β. Data from coimmunoprecipitation
assays of differentially-tagged PLC-β constructs and sizeexclusion
chromatography of native PLC-β support homodimerization...
Explosively erupting volcanoes and megathrust earthquakes (Mw 8+ magnitude) occur at subduction zones and adjacent volcanic arcs. Volcanic eruptions are observed occurring close in time to megathrust earthquakes in the historical record from at least the 18th century CE to present in locations globally, including Japan in 1707 CE (Chesley...
During the 1400s – 1600s, spalted wood was an expensive commodity used in marquetry style artworks across primarily Germany and Italy. It fell out of favor during the Industrial Revolution, but is currently experiencing resurgence in popularity with US woodturners. How spalted wood is used, and what types of spalted...
