Advancing 3D-Printed Seafood Analogues with Tetraselmis chui and Tetraselmis chui Water Extract
No full text[EN] The urgent need for sustainable agrifood practices has driven the exploration of alternative protein sources. This study investigates the potential of Tetraselmis chui and its extract as ingredients in 3D-printed seafood analogues. The rheological, textural, and color properties of Tetraselmis chui and Tetraselmis chui¿s extract were compared with pea protein. The results demonstrated that Tetraselmis chui and Tetraselmis chui¿s extract combined with pea protein can be effectively used in 3D food printing, with Tetraselmis chui showing superior structural integrity and rheological properties to Tetraselmis chui extract. The incorporation of Tetraselmis chui and Tetraselmis chui¿s extract influenced the texture and color of the printed products, with Tetraselmis chui providing a more stable gel structure. This research highlights the potential of microalgae as a sustainable ingredient in developing plant-based seafood alternatives, contributing to the advancement of eco-friendly food production technologies.Open Access funding provided thanks to the CRUE-CSIC agreement with Springer Nature.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

(NMNS, TARI, NMPC, NHMW, BMNH): TAIWAN: Taichung City,Wufeng district,Zhongkeng Industry Road, 4.3 km SEE of Chaoyang Univ. of Technology, 24.054983N 120.755433E, 180 m, 25.iv.–14.v.2019, H.-C. Liu lgt., on sandy banks of of small slowly running lowland stream. Additional material examined. TAIWAN: LANYU ISLAND: 1 ♀ (TARI): Lanyu, 27.vii.2015, lgt.Y.-T. Wang. The specimen corresponds with the holotype in all extrernal characters and we are hence assigning it to T.chui. However, since male genitalia are needed for reliable identification, I am not including this specimen among the types. Description. Body length 1.3–1.6 mm (holotype 1.6 mm), maximum body width 0.9–1.0 mm (holotype 1.0 mm). Head and labrum black; pronotum brown in the middle, becoming weakly paler towards margins; elytra uniformly dark brown; legs brown. Head without microsculpture on interstices; punctation sparse, each puncture bearing pointed seta. Eyes separated by 3.8× the width of one eye in dorsal view. Pronotum with sparse setiferous punctation similar to that on head; interstices without microsculpture. Elytra with 10 striae sharply impressed except anteromedially (near scutellar shield) where neither striae nor serial punctures are visible; intervals weakly convex at midlength and near apex; interval punctation sparse, setiferous; interstices without microsculpture. Aedeagus (Figs 8 A–E) 0.5 mm long. Phallobase indistinctly wider at base of parameres, only very weakly constricted more basally, arcuate in lateral view. Parameres wide basally, gradually narrowing towards apex, outer face subrectangular in basal two thirds, apex projecting into narrow rounded lobe. Median lobe narrow apically, rounded and membranous at apex, reaching to the level of parameral apices, pair of subapical projections missing; gonopore transversely oval, situated in apical fourth. Differential diagnosis. Thysanarthria chui externally differs from part of the remaining species in the total absence of dorsal microsculpture and rather dark (brown rather than yellowish) coloration. In the genital morphology it resembles T. championi, T. bifida, and T. trifida in the form of the parameres; T. bifida and T. trifida differ in the presence of a pair of subapically situated membranous lobes (absent in T. chui and T. championi). For differences from T. championi see under that species. Etymology. The first author dedicates this new species to Isaac Chu as thanks for introducing him to Taiwan and its culture. The first known specimen of the new species was moreover collected in Mr. Chu’s home city of Kaohsiung. Biology. Paratypes were collected on a sandy bank of a slowly running lowland stream; they were actively crawling on the wet sand out of the water during the day (Figs 11 F–G). The holotype was collected at light. Distribution. The species is known from the lowland localities in western and southern Taiwan. The occurrence on Lanyu (= Orchid Island) needs to be confirmed by examination of a male specimen.Published as part of Fikáček, Martin & Liu, Hsing-Che, 2019, A review of Thysanarthria with description of seven new species and comments on its relationship to Chaetarthria (Hydrophilidae: Chaetarthriini), pp. 229-252 in Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae 59 (1) on pages 243-244, DOI: 10.2478/aemnp-2019-0020, http://zenodo.org/record/448891
Tracing the Impact of Domestic Storage Conditions on Antioxidant Activity and Lipid Profiles in the Edible Microalgae <i>Chlorella vulgaris</i> and <i>Tetraselmis chui</i>
No full textThe microalgae Chlorella vulgaris and Tetraselmis chui are valued for their nutrient-rich content, including lipids and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). However, little is known about how storage and processing affect their lipid quality. This study aimed to assess the impact of domestic storage and cooking practices in dried biomass of C. vulgaris and T. chui. Four conditions were tested: control (newly opened package), light (storage at room temperature and daily light regimen for three weeks), frozen (storage in the freezer at −20 °C for three weeks), and heated (three cycles of 90 min at 100 °C). Lipid extracts were analyzed by GC-MS and LC-MS, and antioxidant activity through DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging assays. Tested storage conditions promoted a decrease in fatty acid content and in diacyl/lyso lipid species ratios of phospholipid (PC/LPC, PE/LPE) and betaine lipids (DGTS/MGTS). Lipid extracts from light treatment showed the lowest antioxidant activity in C. vulgaris (ABTS, IC40: 104.9; DPPH, IC20: 187.9 ± 15.0), while heat affected the antioxidant activity of T. chui (ABTS, IC40: 88.5 ± 2.8; DPPH, IC20 209.4 ± 10.9). These findings underscore the impact of managing storage and processing conditions to optimize the nutritional and functional benefits of C. vulgaris and T. chui in food and feed applications

Abstract
PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of topical mitomycin C in corneal wound healing (CWH) after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in highly myopic eyes.
DESIGN: Prospective, double-masked, randomized clinical trial.
PARTICIPANTS: Seventy-two eyes of 36 patients affected by high (>7 diopters) myopia.
METHODS: In each patient, one eye was randomly assigned to PRK with intraoperative topical 0.02% mitomycin C application, and the fellow eye was treated with a placebo. Postoperatively, mitomycin C-treated eyes received artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months), whereas the fellow eye was treated with fluorometholone sodium 2% and artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), contrast sensitivity, manifest refraction, and biomicroscopy. Contrast sensitivity was determined using the Pelli-Robson chart. Corneal confocal microscopy documented CWH.
RESULTS: Mean follow-up was 18 months (range, 12-36). No side effects or toxic effects were documented. At 12-month follow-up examination, UCVAs (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) were 0.4+/-0.48 and 0.5+/-0.53 (P = .03) in mitomycin C-treated eyes and corticosteroid-treated eyes, respectively. At 1 year, corneal haze developed in 20% of corticosteroid-treated eyes, versus 0% of mitomycin C-treated eyes. At 12, 24, and 36 months, corneal confocal microscopy showed activated keratocytes and extracellular matrix significantly more evident in untreated eyes (Ps = 0.004, 0.024, and 0.046, respectively).
CONCLUSION: Topical intraoperative application of 0.02% mitomycin C can reduce haze formation in highly myopic eyes undergoing PRK.
