title: Supplementary Material for: A Comparison of Simple Analytical Methods for Determination of Fluoride in Microlitre-Volume Plasma Samples

description: The aim was to compare potential methods for fluoride analysis in microlitre-volume plasma samples containing nano-gram amounts of fluoride. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A group of 4 laboratories analysed a set of standardised biological samples as well as plasma to determine fluoride concentration using 3 methods. In Phase-1, fluoride analysis was carried out using the established hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDS)-diffusion method (1 mL-aliquot/analysis) to obtain preliminary measurement of agreement between the laboratories. In Phase-2, the laboratories analysed the same samples using a micro-diffusion method and known-addition technique with 200 µL-aliquot/analysis. Coefficients of Variation (CVs) and intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs) were estimated using analysis of variance to evaluate the amount of variation within- and between-laboratories. Based on the results of the Phase-2 analysis, 20 human plasma samples were analysed and compared using the HMDS-diffusion method and known-addition technique in Phase-3. <b><i>Results</i></b>: Comparison of Phase-1 results showed no statistically significant difference among the laboratories for the overall data set. The mean between- and within-laboratory CVs and ICCs were &lt; 0.13 and ≥0.99, respectively, indicating very low variability and excellent reliability. In Phase-2, the overall results for between-laboratory variability showed a poor CV (1.16) and ICC (0.44) for the micro-diffusion method, whereas with the known-addition technique the corresponding values were 0.49 and 0.83. Phase-3 results showed no statistically significant difference in fluoride concentrations of the plasma samples measured with HMDS-diffusion method and known- addition technique, with a mean (SE) difference of 0.002 (0.003) µg/mL. In conclusion, the known-addition technique could be a suitable alternative for the measurement of fluoride in plasma with microlitre-volume samples.

title: Growth bottlenecks of microalga <i>Dunaliella tertiolecta</i> in response to an up-shift in light intensity

description: Microalgae are a potential source of valuable products including drugs, chemicals, food supplements, biofuels, animal feed and fertilizers. In outdoor culture, biomass productivity is dependent on how well the microalgae respond to fluctuations in light during the day. <i>Dunaliella tertiolecta</i> is a halotolerant, photoautotrophic microalga. Our objective is to identify rate-limiting steps in growth as <i>D. tertiolecta</i> acclimates to changing light intensity. We studied the physiological, metabolic and transcriptomic changes of <i>D. tertiolecta</i> in a low dilution rate chemostat culture to determine rate-limiting processes in cell growth in response to changes in light intensity. Upon a 10-fold increase in light intensity from 40 to 400 µmol photons m<sup>–2</sup> s<sup>–1</sup> (HL), the photosynthetic efficiency and maximum photosynthetic rate (PR) per cell, or per chlorophyll, did not change significantly during lag (2 h) and exponential growth (8 h) phases, which suggests that the photosynthetic system was not the growth rate limiting step in response to higher light intensity. The expression of most genes in 2 h and 8 h samples was similar. Some genes involved in synthesis of cellular structures, protein processing and the cell cycle might be bottlenecks in the HL response, because they were expressed only at 8 h. It might not be practical to increase biomass by genetic modification of <i>D. tertiolecta</i> because of the numerous pathways and genes that are potential bottlenecks. Instead, future research can be directed to improving carbon sequestration by channelling it to storage compounds or excretion as extracellular glycerol.

title: Molecular and morphological diversity of <i>Zygnema</i> and <i>Zygnemopsis</i> (Zygnematophyceae, Streptophyta) from Svalbard (High Arctic)

description: Filamentous conjugating green microalgae (Zygnematophyceae, Streptophyta) belong to the most common primary producers in polar hydro-terrestrial environments such as meltwater streamlets and shallow pools. The mats formed by these organisms are mostly composed of sterile filaments with <i>Zygnema</i> morphology, but the extent of their diversity remains unknown. Traditional taxonomy of this group is based on reproductive morphology, but sexual reproduction (conjugation and formation of resistant zygospores) is very rare in extreme conditions. In the present study we gave the first record of zygospore formation in Svalbard field samples, and identified conjugating filaments as <i>Zygnemopsis lamellata</i> and <i>Zygnema</i> cf. <i>calosporum</i>. We applied molecular phylogeny to study genetic diversity of sterile <i>Zygnema</i> filaments from Svalbard in the High Arctic. Based on analysis of 143 <i>rbc</i>L sequences, we revealed a surprisingly high molecular diversity: 12 Arctic <i>Zygnema</i> genotypes and one <i>Zygnemopsis</i> genotype were found. In addition, we characterized individual Arctic genotypes based on cell width and chloroplast morphology using light and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Our findings highlight the importance of a molecular approach when working with sterile filamentous Zygnematophyceae, as hidden diversity might be very beneficial for adaptation to harsh environmental conditions, and experimental results could be misinterpreted when hidden diversity is neglected.

title: An unexpectedly derived odontocete from the Ashley Formation (upper Rupelian) of South Carolina, U.S.A.

description: ABSTRACT—Fossil whale material from the Oligocene-aged marine beds underlying the region around Charleston, South Carolina, has provided an unparalleled view of post-archaeocete cetacean evolution. Both the Chattian-aged Chandler Bridge Formation and the underlying Rupelian-aged Ashley Formation have yielded dozens of specimens, many yet-to-be described, that document an explosive evolutionary radiation at this time, particularly in odontocetes, but in early mysticetes as well. Specimens include early odontocetes, such as <i>Ashleycetus planicapitis</i>, <i>Xenorophus sloanii</i>, and <i>Agorophius pygmaeus</i>; the earliest baleen-bearing mysticetes, such as <i>Eomysticetus whitmorei</i> and <i>E</i>. <i>carolinensis</i>; and even multiple species of archaeocete-like toothed mysticetes, such as the recently described <i>Coronodon havensteini</i>. Herein, we describe yet another species of odontocete from the Ashley Formation, but one that is surprisingly derived relative to contemporary species noted above that maintain a pronounced intertemporal constriction, with broad exposure of the parietals across the skull roof. In contrast to those taxa, <i>Ediscetus osbornei</i>, gen. et sp. nov., shows an unexpectedly advanced degree of ‘telescoping’ whereby there is no exposure of the parietals across the vertex of the skull and only minimally exposed ‘parietal triangles’ at the lateral margins of the nearly lost intertemporal constriction. Phylogenetic analyses of a supermatrix of morphological and molecular data place <i>E. osbornei</i> slightly outside the odontocete crown group, with the presence of double-rooted teeth and a deep maxillary cleft, among other features, supporting this position. The holotype also has a well-developed articular ridge on the petrosal, typically considered a platanistoid synapomorphy, indicating that this character shows more homoplasy than generally realized. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:3A498CE7-7FF8-4203-987D-F5E2158061A8 SUPPLEMENTAL DATA—Supplemental materials are available for this article for free at www.tandfonline.com/UJVP Citation for this article: Albright, L.
