Pilot-Scale Enzymatic Conversion of Low Stability, High Free Fatty, Squid Oil to an Oxidatively Stable Astaxanthin-Rich Acylglyceride Oil Suitable for Nutritional Applications by Asavari Joshi, Brendan Holland, Moninder Sachar, Colin J. Barrow

“…Lipase treatment significantly enhanced oxidative stability, evidenced by improved thermodynamic parameters (E_a 94.15 kJ/mol, ΔH 91.09 kJ/mol, ΔS −12.6 J/mol K) and extended shelf life (IP₂₅ 74.42 days) compared to starting squid oil and commercial fish/squid oils lacking astaxanthin. Thus, lipase treatment offers an effective strategy for reducing FFA levels and producing oxidatively stable, astaxanthin-rich acylglyceride squid oil with DHA retained at the nutritionally favored sn-2 position.…”

Sex-biased gene expression across tissues reveals unexpected differentiation in the gills of the threespine stickleback by Sylvestre, Florent, Aubin-Horth, Nadia, Bernatchez, Louis

“…Finally, the gills exhibit high levels of differentiation (5%), suggesting that sex should be considered in physiological and ecotoxicological studies of gill responses in fishes. We also find that sex-biased gene expression in hemizygous genes is mainly driven by a lack of dosage compensation. …”
