Abstract Introduction The use of electronic vaping products (EVPs) containing nicotine, marijuana, and/or other substances remains prominent among youth; with EVPs nicotine being the most commonly used tobacco product youth since 2014. However, a detailed understanding chemical composition these is limited. Aims and Methods From February 25th to March 15th, 2019, total 576 EVPs, including 233 e-cigarette devices (with 43 disposable vape pens) 343 e-liquid cartridges/pods/bottled e-liquids,...

Abstract Chemical communication is likely to play an important role during agonistic encounters in aquatic crustaceans but the use of chemical signals difficult observe. An alternative approach direct observation collect water that has contained fighting animals and then expose a focal animal same species cue monitor its behaviour. Here we investigate possibility cues 'shell fights' hermit crab Pagurus bernhardus. Focal crabs exposed spent more time withdrawn into their gastropod shell, less...

Abstract The goal of this study was to gather information about freshwater fishes in Letchworth State Park (42.615275° N, −77.992825° W), a portion New York State‐owned land located the Genesee River Watershed that lacks known data its fish diversity. Fish collection took place between 2017 and 2019 Genesse upstream downstream falls using electrofishing, gill, hoop, seine netting. This first attempt at comprehensive survey river, which allowed for baseline be established regarding...

Abstract Various species of freshwater fish regulate the expression certain proteins in response to environmental contamination. Previous research has shown that CYP1A increases contaminant levels and can result increased tumor formation. Fish contaminated environments would thus benefit by downregulating reduce prevalence as an adaptive strategy. Alternatively, monitoring protein serve a bioindicator pollution level environment. This study evaluated twelve different from seven bodies water...
