THE IMMUNE RESPONSE IN CARP, CYPRINUS CARPIO L. TO ICHTHYOPHTHIRIUS MULTIFILIIS, FOUQUET 1876
Creators: name: HOUGHTON, GILLIAN
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1987

description: Protective immunity of carp to ichthyophthiriasis has been confirmed, and demonstrated for the first time in juvenile carp, 10-12 weeks old. Standard immunisation procedures were developed here using the theront in preference to cysts. Immunisation included exposure of fish on 3 separate occasions of 14 day intervals to doses of approximately 2,000 theronts per fish, 80/ cm³. Procedures were controlled so that infections were not allowed to continue beyond the primary stage pH (7.0-7.2 ) and temperature (20±2° C) were maintained throughout experimental periods. Four weeks after third immunising dose, fish were exposed to a potentially lethal challenge, approximately 8,000 theronts per fish, 320/cm³. Following immunisation , fish showed total protection up to 1 month and decreasing protection up to 3 months during which period, mortalities were recorded on challenge. Humoral antibody was monitored at specific stages of experimental infections, peak response 6-8 weeks following exposure with detectable levels of antibody persisting for at least 12 weeks. Immunosuppression was demonstrated following intraperitoneal administration of synthetic corticosteroid Triamcinolone acetonide, doses of 200 µg, 100 µg and 10 µg gˉ¹ body weight, and corticosteroid Hydrocortisone 21-hemisuccinate, doses of 100 µg and 10 µg gˉ¹ body weight, given 14 days after challenge. Immunosuppression was not associated with any significant fall in antibody titre. Studies in cross immunity between Tetrahymena pyriformis (CCAP 1630/W Claff, 1939 (w)) and Ichthyophthirius multifiliis showed no evidence of the former conferring protection to ichthyophthiriasis. Methods of administration of T. pyriformis to juvenile carp included intraperitoneal injection of freeze dried cilia and whole, live T. pyriformis. The kinetics of the humoral response were measured over 12 weeks, peak antibody titres occurring 6-8 weeks following antigen administration. Proliferative responses measured by autoradiography were recorded prior to peak antibody production. Overall results are discussed in relation to immunosuppression, mechanisms of immunity and control and treatment of the disease.

– vatiCAN – Vetted, Authenticated CAN Bus
Creators: name: Nürnberger, Stefan

Publisher: name: CISPA
Year: 2024

description: In recent years, several attacks have impressively demonstrated that the software running on embedded controllers in cars can be successfully exploited – often even remotely. The fact that components that were hitherto purely mechanical, such as connections to the brakes, throttle, and steering wheel, have been computerized makes digital exploits life-threatening. Because of the interconnectedness of sensors, controllers and actuators, any compromised controller can impersonate any other controller by mimicking its control messages, thus effectively depriving the driver of his control.

The fact that carmakers develop vehicles in evolutionary steps rather than as revolution, has led us to propose a backward-compatible authentication mechanism for the widely used CAN vehicle communication bus. vatiCAN allows recipients of a message to verify its authenticity via HMACs, while not changing CAN messages for legacy, non-critical components. In addition, vatiCAN detects and prevents attempts to spoof identifiers of critical components. We implemented a vatiCAN prototype and show that it incurs a CAN message latency of less than 4 ms, while giving strong guarantees against non-authentic messages.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Sustainable management of marine resources requires knowledge of the current exploitation level and a reference point. Traditional assessment methods are not applicable for a plethora of stocks because of data limitations; e.g. lack of age information, time-series and reference points. New approaches are required that are validated and quantify uncertainty. Here, we validate a recent size-based steady-state method that estimates the stock status F/Fmsy. The method requires only catch-at-size frequencies. The underlying model is formulated using life-history invariants that are not estimated, borrowing values from well assessed stocks (‘Robin Hood’ approach). The life-history invariant mostly affecting the results is the physiological mortality (natural mortality to growth ratio). Uncertainty estimates are obtained by repeating the assessment for different values of physiological mortality. Data-rich stocks are used to validate the method and identify its limits. Our results are compared with the official age-based assessments. Qualitatively our results agree to the official assessments. Further, temporal variations are well captured, although no time-series were used: the data of each year are treated in isolation. The uncertainty is a factor of two around the median estimate. The novel data-limited assessment method is a viable candidate for fisheries lacking long time-series and age information.

description: Cystoseira is abundant in bioactive chemicals that have been emphasized for their pharmacological value as plentiful and typically safe alternatives, offering a viable technique for treating cancer and inflammatory diseases. However, evaluating the effect of seasonality and extraction methods on Cystoseira chemical composition and cytotoxicity activity are still not thoroughly investigated. This study investigates the effect of seasonal variations and extraction methods of the Cystoseira extracts on the chemical composition and cytotoxicity activity on human cancer cell lines. C. tamariscifolia, C. crinita and C. compressa, were collected from the UK and Libya and colourimetric techniques were used to measure the chemical components. The cell vitality was measured in vitro using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and Trypan Blue (TB) assays. The results showed that both chemical composition and anticancer activity were subject to the seasonality and extraction method. The study also confirmed that the three Cystoseira spices demonstrated potent anticancer activity against human leukaemia HL60 and THP-1, prostate PC3 and lymphoma REC-1 cancer cell lines. In an effort to investigate the anti-proinflammatory activities of Cystoseira extracts, human macrophage-like cells were exposed to the crude extracts and fractions and the release of TNF-α and IL-1β was measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results reveal that the methanol extract of C. tamariscifolia and C. crinita extracts significantly inhibited the release of TNF-α and IL-1β. C. crinita methanolic extract was partitioned using HPLC, and the fractions were tested for their anti-TNF-α release effect. The result showed that the sup-fraction C1c from C. crinita had a significant anti-proinflammatory effect and the LC-MS analysis of the fraction showed that it contains fatty acids and mannitol. These data suggest that sampling times and extraction methods should be considered to maximise the possibility of finding novel bioactive compounds in Cystoseira. The study also suggests that C. crinita is a valuable source of anti-inflammatory agents. This should provide helpful information for medicinal chemists in their attempts to develop anticancer and immunomodulatory agents. However, more research on this topic is needed to understand Cystoseira bioactive compounds mechanisms of action.

description: The transition to lead-free (Pb-free) solders has increased the demand for reliable alloys compatible with the solder reflow process. Bismuth (Bi) is a common Pb substitute in Pb-free solders, as it lowers the alloy’s melting temperature and enhances joint strength. This study investigates the microstructural characterization and evolution of hypoeutectic and hypereutectic tin-bismuth (SnBi) alloys.The presence of Cu6Sn5 and Ag3Sn intermetallic compounds (IMCs) provides critical context for understanding Bi interactions with various phases during solidification. This study presents a systematic investigation of Bi precipitation in Sn7Bi and SAC-Bi solder alloys, utilizing advanced microstructural characterization techniques. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were employed alongside time-resolved imaging with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The findings demonstrate the correlation between Bi precipitation and diffusion mechanisms at grain boundaries, Cu6Sn5-Sn and Ag3Sn-Sn interfaces, as well as in the bulk alloy.Our findings reveal that the commonly reported Bi particle phenomenon is precipitation driven by surface diffusion, where Bi particles nucleate and precipitate on exposed surfaces. Building on this understanding, we examined the precipitation mechanisms in binary Sn7Bi alloys, focusing on different Bi particle morphologies. Globular and plate-like Bi precipitates nucleate at distinct interfaces, such as particle/matrix boundaries or grain boundaries, and exhibit unique coarsening behaviors. Thermal annealing induces redistribution of these precipitates, which correlates with significant grain growth. We extend this analysis to the Sn70Bi system, integrating insights from the hypoeutectic and hypereutectic SnBi alloys.

name: Muandet, Krikamol
Publisher: name: CISPA
Year: 2024

description: Causality is a central concept in a wide range of research areas, yet there is still no universally agreed axiomatisation of causality. We view causality both as an extension of probability theory and as a study of what happens when one intervenes on a system, and argue in favour of taking Kolmogorov's measure-theoretic axiomatisation of probability as the starting point towards an axiomatisation of causality. To that end, we propose the notion of a causal space, consisting of a probability space along with a collection of transition probability kernels, called causal kernels, that encode the causal information of the space. Our proposed framework is not only rigorously grounded in measure theory, but it also sheds light on long-standing limitations of existing frameworks including, for example, cycles, latent variables and stochastic processes.

Discrimination of Relative Quantity Proportions by Rhesus Monkeys (Macaca Mulatta) And Capuchin Monkeys (Cebus Apella)
Creators: name: Vogt, Myah
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2021

description:
Nonhuman animals can make relative quantity judgments of two or more sets of things (e.g., which set has more food items). However, a more sophisticated judgment requires assessing the larger or smaller set on the basis of a proportion within that set (e.g., red candies in a set of red and black candies). Judgments of relative proportion cannot rely on an absolute number comparison for the pertinent subset type but rather must rely on how much of one thing exists relative to another within each set. This more sophisticated form of quantitative cognition is nearly unstudied in other species. This thesis focused on the ability of capuchin monkeys and macaque monkeys to distinguish the relative proportions of stimulus sets presented to them on a computer screen. The task presented to capuchin and rhesus monkeys was to judge which of two matrices of varying numbers of items had the larger proportion of one designated color relative to the other. Rhesus monkeys performed above chance in all trial types and capuchins in all trials wherein they could rely on black dots as the relevant cue. Their performance was in accordance with Webers Law, indicating that the same mechanism may be at work when judging absolute and relative quantities.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The Curonian Lagoon is the largest lagoon of the Europe, relating to the most highly productive waterbodies. Ecosystem monitoring was carried out monthly in 1991-2014, and the database includes 1700stations. In XX century in the Baltic Sea and its lagoons the warming trend is observed. The climatewarming in the Baltic region caused ongoing eutrophication and harmful algae blooms in theCuronian Lagoon despite of significant reduction of nutrients loading by 3-4 times in 1990s-2000s.More intensive summer warming in combination with other factors (nutrients concentrations, shallowdepths, slow water exchange, freshwater) creates conditions for 'hyperblooms' of Cyanobacteria andaffected seriously on the ecosystem of the Curonian Lagoon. This lagoon may be characterized ashypertrophic water body with 'poor' water quality. Harmful algal blooms in July-October(chlorophyll to 700-3400 μg/l) result in deterioration of the water chemical parameters, oxygendeficiency and death of fish in the coastal zone. Algal toxins detected in water, sediment, mussels andfish and the concentrations of microcystins in water may exceed safe level. 'Hyperblooms' ofCyanobacteria is the most dangerous for coastal towns and tourist resorts (UNESCO National Park'Curonian Spit').

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Recently more attentions have been paid on the mechanisms how the freshwater (including surfaceand submarine ground waters) contribute to the high productivity and species diversity of the coastalecosystems. Submarine ground water is nutritionally rich and stable in temperature throughout theyear, indicating positive effects on fishery production and species diversity under a variety of changesin environmental conditions including global warming. We conducted physical and biological surveysin temperate coastal waters in Japan in order to examine effects of submarine groundwater onproductivity and species diversity of fishery resources. Relationships between physical (temperature,salinity and radon concentration) and biological parameters (abundance, biomass and speciesdiversity of fish, crustaceans and polychaetes) were investigated. Significant increase in abundanceand number of species of fishes and some invertebrate species were observed, indicating thatsubmarine groundwater promotes biological production and species diversity in coastal ecosystems.The dependence of food webs on organic matters of terrestrial origin was examined by stomachcontents and stable isotope analyses. Possible effects of climatic changes (including the globalwarming) through spatio‐temporal variability in submarine groundwater discharge on theproductivity and species diversity in coastal ecosystems are predicted based on optimum growthtemperature and species interactions.

IMMUNOLOGICAL TOLERANCE IN THE AMPHIBIAN XENOPUS LAEVIS (DAUDIN)
Creators: name: FARLEY, ESME KILA
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1987

description: Observation of some of the phenomena of tolerance to soluble protein antigens and allogeneic tissue transplants in Xenopus laevis has formed the framework of the present study. The method of larval induction of high-zone tolerance used in this laboratory has been confirmed and further analysed. Larvae treated with high doses of Human-γ-globulin (HGG) were unable to produce anti-HGG antibody after challenge. The proliferative response demonstrated in the spleens of tolerant toadlets 21 days after challenge was, however, of similar magnitude to that in normally responding animals. Adoptive transfer of high-zone tolerance specific to HGG was demonstrated by intravenous inoculation of tolerant histocompatible splenocytes simultaneously with an antigenic challenge via the dorsal lymph sac. This is indicative of the active involvement of a suppressor T-cell population. The induction of high-zone tolerance in X. laevis results in changes in spleen cell populations as demonstrated by buoyant density gradient separation. Spleen cell sub-populations taken from the separated layers were not, however, effective in the adoptive transfer of tolerance. A normal lymphocyte transfer reaction was observed in X. laevis to show a number of characteristics seen in the mammalian reaction. The use of mitomycin-C treated donor cells and early thymectomized hosts has demonstrated that the phenomenon is composed of donor and host components which are largely distinct from each other. Implantation of allogeneic larval spleens resulted in the induction of transplantation tolerance or impaired rejection in a significant proportion of skin grafted toadlets in which both the donor and host larvae were up to and including stage 51 at the time of transplantation. The implication of these results is that immunomaturity of the donor and host is important in the induction of transplantation tolerance but that other factors must also be involved.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.In order to identify how ocean acidification will influence biological interactions and fluxes among planktonic organisms and across trophic levels, a large-scale mesocosm experiment was performed in the oligotrophic Northwestern Mediterranean Sea. Nine mesocosms were deployed in the Bay of Calvi (Corsica, France) in summer 2012. Six mesocosms were subjected to different levels of CO2 partial pressures (550, 650, 750, 850, 1000 and 1250 μatm) covering the range of atmospheric pCO2 anticipated for the end of this century depending on future emission scenarios, and the last three mesocosms were unaltered (ambient pCO2 of ~ 450 μatm). During this 21-day experiment, we monitored copepod egg and nauplius stocks, estimated copepod (Acartia clausi and Centropages typicus) feeding rates and determined the abundance and taxonomic composition of the mesozooplankton community at the start and at the completion of the experiment. Zooplankton community revealed important differences among mesocosms most likely due to natural and experimental variability that cannot be related to CO2 conditions. Eggs and nauplii as well as feeding rates on microplankton showed no significant differences among CO2 levels. The above findings suggest that in low nutrient-low chlorophyll environments, ocean acidification will most likely not have significant effects on planktonic trophic interactions.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The high larval mortalities in oyster hatcheries on the US west coast have gotten large media coveragein the past few years, and the link has been made between occurrences of coastal upwelling of deepwater with low carbonate ion availability and abnormal shell formation in hatchery larvae. However,the mechanism by which this happens is still not well understood. In the Pacific oyster, numerousgenes are known to be involved in biomineralization but little is known about the timing of geneexpression in relation to formation of the initial larval shell. In order to study this process, we scannedall expressed larval genes using an RNA-Seq approach over the time interval of initial shell formationin both control and pCO2-stressed conditions. Scanning the expression data for patterns matchingobserved shell formation rates, we identified a number of genes potentially involved in shellnucleation, most of which are involved in transmembrane transport or protein binding. In addition,we also identified a set of 149 co-expressed genes likely to be involved in the cellular early shellformation machinery.
ECOLOGY AND CONSERVATION OF MEDITERRANEAN TEMPORARY PONDS IN THE UK
Creators: name: MCABENDROTH, LOUISE
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2004

description: Macroinvertebrate and plant assemblage composition and abiotic habitat characteristics were examined in seventy-six ponds, in the New Forest (Hampshire. UK) and on the Lizard Peninsula (Cornwall, UK), in order to unravel the ecological processes influencing ponds at a range of spatial scales and provide a clear definition of Mediterranean Temporary Pond (MTP) habitat (92/43/EEC) in the UK. In addition, a set of newly created experimental ponds were monitored on the Lizard to examine patterns of colonisation and evaluate the use of habitat creation in temporary pond conservation. The findings are synthesised into a number of management recommendations for ponds in the regions, with a particular focus on MTPs. MTPs equated to ephemeral, winter-flooded ponds occurring in shallow depressions on the Lizard, which had some floristic similarities to other western Atlantic fringe sites. They were dominated by low growing grasses, rushes and rare annual species of the Nanocyperion alliance along with a depauperate macroinvertebrate assemblage comprising Coleoptera (including characteristic rare taxa), Trichoptera and Chironomidae. The strength of physicochemical and spatial pattern in assemblage composition varied between the regions. Lizard macroinvertebrate assemblage similarity was spatially autocorrelated and related to water chemistry and pond area but New Forest macroinvertebrate similarity was not related to any of the measured physicochemical parameters. Plant assemblage composition was only weakly related to wet phase physicochemistry. Pond vegetation structured macroinvertebrate assemblages in different ways at different spatial scales. At large-scales, macrophyte richness and composition affected macroinvertebrate assemblage composition in both regions, whereas, at smaller-scales, macrophyte structural complexity (measured using fractals) influenced tx>dy size scaling and overall biomass of macroinvertebrates. Assemblages in both regions were significantly nested, indicating that species-poor sites tended to be subsets of rich sites. Macroinvertebrate nesting, on the Lizard, was not due to passive sampling, and was best explained by pond area, with habitat parameters and isolation being of secondary importance. Nested and idiosyncratic taxa differed in their spatial response to factors which structured assemblage-level nestedness; idiosyncratic taxa tended to possess broad ecological tolerance and good dispersal capacity, whilst nested species had narrower tolerance or limited powers of dispersal. Experimental pond macroinvertebrate assemblage similarity converged with pond age, despite continued variation in physicochemistry, and the assemblages that developed were not significantly different from small natural ponds in the region. Augmentation of current MTP habitat could therefore be achieved by creating new sites in close proximity to existing water bodies.
