Species-specific mercury speciation in billfishes and its implications for food safety monitoring and dietary advice by Anaïs Médieu, David Point, Valérie Allain, Nathalie Bodin, Mélanie Lemire, Pierre Ayotte, Zahirah Dhurmeea, Matthieu Waeles, Laure Laffont, Antoine Le Gohalen, François Roupsard, Anne Lorrain

“…Humans are exposed to toxic methylmercury mainly by consuming marine fish, in particular top predator species like billfishes or tunas. In seafood risk assessments, mercury is assumed to be mostly present as organic methylmercury in predatory fishes; yet high percentages of inorganic mercury were recently reported in marlins, suggesting markedly different methylmercury metabolism across species. …”

Comparative analysis of species composition and quantitative analysis of udder microflora in cows with subclinical and clinical mastitis by N. N. Avduevskaya, A. V. Kapustin, A. V. Gorbatov, E. V. Ivanov

“…Due to the great relevance of the problem of mastitis in cows, the diversity of udder microflora in the affected animals, as well as to develop therapeutic and preventive measures on farms, studies were conducted to identify similarities and differences in the species composition of microorganisms in animals with sub­clinical and clinical breast inflammation, their proportion, to establish the correlation between the secreted microflora and the type of mastitis, as well as to study and compare the enzymatic properties of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from animals with clinical and subclinical mastitis. …”

Multiple mutations in polyketide synthase led to disruption of Psittacofulvin production across diverse parrot species by Shatadru Ghosh Roy, Jindřich Brejcha, Petr Maršík, Anna Bakhrat, Moty Abdu, Roberto Arbore, Pedro Miguel Araújo, Sandra Afonso, Miguel Carneiro, Iris Grossman-Haham, Uri Abdu

“…Here, we identified seven previously unreported variants in PKS associated with defective psittacofulvin production in four diverse species, including three nonsense mutations. Intriguingly, three of the remaining nonsynonymous substitutions reside within the ketoacyl synthase (KS) domain, whereas one at MAT domain. …”
