Marine-derived antimicrobial molecules from the sponges and their associated bacteria
(Canadian Science Publishing, Ottawa, Canada, 2023)Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the leading global health issues that demand urgent attention.Very soon the world will have to bear the consequences of increased drug resistance if new anti-infectives are not ... -
Implications of benthic ecological quality in structuring macrobenthos community in a tropical monsoon influenced port, New Mangalore, India
(Elsevier, 2023)Soft bottom macrobenthos are highly diverse benthic invertebrates, and their diversity depends mainly on the health of the benthic habitat.The impact of anthopogenic stress and port related activites on macrobenthos diversity ... -
Arsenic enriched groundwater discharge to a tropical ocean: Understanding controls and processes
(Elsevier, 2023)The role of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) in transporting terrestrial-sourced arsenic (As) to the global oceans is not well documented.In the present study, executed on a coast adjoining the extensive groundwater ... -
Heavy metal accumulation in a moderately polluted Ulhas estuary, Western India
(Elsevier, 2023)The impact of industrialization and anthropogenic activities on the heavy metal accumulation in a moderately polluted Ulhas estuary, Mumbai is presented here.The estuarine pollution was evaluated based on the enrichment ... -
Seasonal Dynamics of Photosynthetic Picoeukaryotes in a Monsoon-Influenced Tropical Bay: A Flow Cytometric and Chemotaxonomic Approach
(Springer, 2023)The composition and ecology of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes (PPE) are essential for understanding microbial food web functioning.We hypothesize that the simultaneous use of flow cytometry (FCM) and high-performance liquid ... -
Macrofaunal Distribution, Diversity, and Its Ecological Interaction at the Cold Seep Site of Krishna-Godavari Basin, East Coast of India
(Springer, 2023)Cold seeps are characterized by typical endemic communities with associated microorganisms that depend on sulfide, methane, reduced nitrogenous compounds, and metals as electron donors for their survival through ... -
Assessing the geographical distribution of carnivorous and planktivorous fishes in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2023)There is a clear distinction in the feeding habits of fishes between the northeastern and southeastern Arabian Sea (west coast of India) � the north is carnivorous, and the south is planktivorous �, but such a distinction ... -
Characterization of pyomelanin secreted by Shewanella sp.and their application in metal recovery
(Springer, 2023)Melanin is a biopolymer with versatile structural and functional properties and diverse applications in recovering toxic chemicals from water and wastewater, biomedical imaging, and as theragnostic agent.We report the ... -
Seasonal Variability in Fine Particulate Matter Water Content and Estimated pH over a Coastal Region in the Northeast Arabian Sea
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)The acidity of atmospheric particles can promote specific chemical processes that result in the production of extra condensed phases from lesser volatile species (secondary fine particulate matter), change the optical and ... -
Phytoplankton community shift in response to experimental Cu addition at the elevated CO2 levels (Arabian Sea, winter monsoon)
(Springer, 2023)Understanding phytoplankton community shifts under multiple stressors is becoming increasingly important.Among other combinations of stressors, the impact of trace metal toxicity on marine phytoplankton under the ocean ... -
Input-export fluxes of heavy metals in the Cochin estuary, southwest coast of India
(Springer, 2023)Cochin estuary (CE) is one of the largest tropical estuaries along the southwest coast of India, sustaining rich bio-resources.Several studies enlighten the environmental changes in the CE caused by anthropogenic activities.In ... -
Geochemistry of the Neoarchean Dodguni carbonates of Chitradurga greenstone belt, Dharwar Craton, India: Implications on depositional environment
(Wiley, 2023)The carbonates of the Dodguni area of the Chitradurga greenstone belt, Dharwar Craton, India were studied to understand the Archean diagenetic and palaeo-depositional conditions using carbon and oxygen isotopes along with ... -
Augmented coral reef monitoring using a stationary reef monitoring system
(Elsevier, 2023)Coral reef monitoring is a reliable tool to assess the effect of climate change as corals are sensitive to increases in water temperatures between 30 °C and 35 °C, resulting in bleaching - a whitening process when the ... -
Exceptionally high foraminiferal dissolution in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2022)The planktic foraminifera are an important component of the global carbon cycle, as they sequester the carbon, thus burying it in the sediments for ages.The burial of planktic foraminiferal shells, however, depends on the ... -
Marine algae colorants: Antioxidant, anti-diabetic properties and applications in food industry
(Elsevier, 2023)In numerous food businesses, natural pigments are frequently utilized as food colorants.Colorants give nutritional value to food items in addition to improving its appeal, acceptability and flavour.Consumers have a tendency ... -
The Influence of Photodynamic Antimicrobial Chemotherapy on the Microbiome, Neuroendocrine and Immune System of Crustacean Post Larvae
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)Photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT), employing a combination of light and natural photosensitizer molecules such as curcumin, has been accepted as a safe modality for removing aquatic pathogens which cause ... -
Investigation of Secondary Metabolites from Marine-Derived Fungi Aspergillus
(Wiley, 2022)Marine fungi Aspergillus flavipes and A.terreus were investigated for secondary metabolites using electrospray ionization-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-QTOF MS) analysis.The ESI-MS analysis showed that ... -
