Abstract Selection of chemical markers is crucial for the quality control of herbal medicines, including authentication of genuine species, harvesting the best quality raw materials, evaluation of post-harvesting handling, assessment of intermediates and finished products, and detection of harmful or toxic ingredients.Ideal chemical markers should
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is well-known as a key hormone that inhibits stomach emptying and stimulates midgut motility in gastric species.However, the function of CCK related to gut motility in agastric fish, gruvi golden lager especially in fish with a short digestive tract such as ballan wrasse, remains unknown.Here we present a detailed description
An airborne gamma-ray remote-sensing technique provides a strong potential to estimate a reliable snow water equivalent (SWE) in forested environments where typical remote-sensing techniques have large uncertainties.This study explores the utility of assimilating the temporally (up to four measurements during a winter period) and spatially click he
Sponges (Porifera) represent the lowest metazoan phylum, characterized by a pronounced plasticity in the determination of cell lineages, and they are the closest related taxon to the hypothetical ancestral animal, the Urmetazoa, from which the metazoan lineages diverged.In a first approach to elucidate the molecular mechanisms controlling the switc
