Improving Farmed Juvenile Gilthead Seabream () Stress Response to Marine Heatwaves and Vibriosis Through Seaweed-Based Dietary Modulation.

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are an emerging challenge for aquaculture, increasing the frequency and severity of disease outbreaks in farmed fish, weakening immunocompetence and compromising overall health and survival. As climate change stressors intensify, there is an urgent need for cost-effective and environmentally friendly strategies to enhance fish resilience. This study investigated the efficacy of , a brown macroalga, included in aquafeeds as powder (0.

Ecotoxicological responses of marine fish to the organophosphate flame-retardant tris (2-chloroisopropyl) phosphate (TCPP) dietary exposure: Juvenile gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) as a case study.

High Production Volume Chemicals (HPVCs) are contaminants that pose serious threats to aquatic environments and species that inhabit them, given their massive production and ubiquitous distribution across biological compartments. Among them, organophosphate esters (OPEs) are of particular concern, as they are widely used as plasticizers and flame-retardants, and linked to various forms of toxicity in marine organisms. In this study, we investigated the ecotoxicological response of juvenile gilthead seabream Sparus aurata to the OPE tris (2-chloroisopropyl) phosphate (TCPP) following chronic dietary exposure to three different concentrations (low, D1: 0.

as a Novel Antioxidant Ingredient for Climate-Smart Aquaculture: Antioxidant, Metabolic and Digestive Modulation in Juvenile White Seabream () Exposed to a Marine Heatwave.

The increasing frequency and duration of marine heatwaves (MHWs) due to climate change pose severe threats to aquaculture, causing drastic physiological and growth impairments in farmed fish, undermining their resilience against additional environmental pressures. To ensure sustainable production that meets the global seafood demand and animal welfare standards, cost-effective and eco-friendly strategies are urgently needed. This study explored the efficacy of the red macroalga on juvenile white seabream reared under optimal conditions and upon exposure to a MHW.

Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) Survey toward Skin Cancer among Ecuadorian Population.

Background: Skin cancer is one of the most common cancers, and melanoma is a highly preventable cancer. In Ecuador, few studies have evaluated the awareness levels of the population about the disease. For this reason, the objective of this study was to measure the level of knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding skin cancer and its determining factors.
