Knockdown of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) by RNAi reduces the tolerance of Artemia franciscana nauplii to heat and bacterial infection

TL;DR: Results suggest that Hsp70 assisted in maintaining protein homeostasis within stressed cells while potentially stimulating the innate immune system of A. franciscana.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-Lethal Heat Shock of the Asian Green Mussel, Perna viridis, Promotes Hsp70 Synthesis, Induces Thermotolerance and Protects Against Vibrio Infection

TL;DR: The induction of Hsp70 in parallel with enhanced thermotolerance and improved protection against V. alginolyticus, suggests HSp70 functions in P. viridis as a molecular chaperone and as a stimulator of the immune system.

Antibacterial Properties of Selected Mangrove Plants Against Vibrio Species and its Cytotoxicity Against Artemia salina

TL;DR: Overall, present study proved the active antimicrobial compounds in methanolic extract of S. caesolaris which could be used against Vibrio pathogens in aquaculture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pandanus tectorius fruit extract promotes Hsp70 accumulation, immune-related genes expression and Vibrio parahaemolyticus tolerance in the white-leg shrimp Penaeus vannamei.

TL;DR: The use of plant or herbal extracts is expected to be safe for aquatic animals and less harmful to the environment, as opposed to conventional therapeutic alternatives such as antibiotics that promote the occurrence of potential antibiotic-resistant bacteria when used improperly as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation of lipid-rich marine microalgae by flow cytometric screening with Nile Red staining

TL;DR: Results indicate that the proposed method, an automated isolation technique coupled with the use of a specific cell stain such as NR, is efficient for selecting and isolating lipid-rich microalgae strains from the natural environment.
