Galicia is an area with a strong mussel aquaculture industry in addition to other important bivalve mollusc fisheries. Between 2014 and 2017, 18,862 samples were analyzed for EU regulated marine lipophilic toxins. Okadaic acid (OA) was the most prevalent toxin only single that produced harvesting closures. Toxin concentrations raft mussels generally higher than those recorded bivalves, justifying use of this species as indicator. The Rías Pontevedra Muros ones affected by OA DTX2 Ría Ares...
For the first time, pinnatoxins have been detected in shellfish from Atlantic and Cantabrian coasts of Spain. High sensitivity LC-MS/MS systems were used to monitor all currently known (A-H). Pinnatoxin G (PnTX G) was most prevalent toxin group, but its metabolite PnTX A has also found at much lower levels. No trend concentration area, a hotspot Ría de Camariñas identified. The maximum concentrations did not exceed 15 µg·kg-1, being, cases, below 3 µg·kg-1. highest wild (intertidal)...
The depuration kinetics of the domoic acid from three body parts (i) digestive gland, (ii) adductor muscle+gonad+kidney+foot and (iii) gills+mantle scallop Pecten maximus was studied over 154 days. scallops, which had accumulated toxins during a Pseudo-nitzschia australis outbreak, were obtained natural bed hung mussel raft in two locations (front centre) at depths (2, 6 10 m). time course (DA), as well environmental variables, monitored throughout experiment. whole depurated toxin very...
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) enable unprecedented communication between product designers and manufacturers. Effective use of these technologies both enables requires a new paradigm methods models to identify the most profitable environmentally friendly production plans for manufacturing network. The operating system cyber-physical (OSCM) paired network operations administration monitoring (NOAM) software are introduced. These guide our development mixed integer bilevel programming (BP)...
Cloud manufacturing is quickly emerging as an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), analogue for distributed production and supply chains, that integrates providers customers. This paper develops a cloud-based cyberphysical platform new service spawning organizing cloud networks of computer numerical control (CNC) resources, provisioned managed over the internet. The proposed layered architecture consists hardware, virtualization, operating system, network layers. Using modern web development...
Prevalence, impact on shellfish resources and interspecific, spatial, temporal variabilities of domoic acid (DA) in bivalves from Galicia (NW Spain) have been studied based more than 25 years monitoring data. The maximum prevalence (samples which DA was detected) (100%) incidence with levels above the regulatory limit) (97.4%) were recorded
Paralytic shellfish poisoning is an important concern for mollusk fisheries, aquaculture, and public health. In Galicia, NW Iberian Peninsula, such toxicity has been monitored a long time using mouse bioassay. Therefore, little information exists about the precise toxin analogues their possible transformations in diverse species environments. After change European PSP reference method, refinement of Lawrence method was developed, achieving 75% reduction chromatogram run time. Since beginning...
Spirolides are cyclic imines whose risks to human health have not been sufficiently evaluated. To determine the possible impact of these compounds in Galicia (NW Spain), their presence and concentration bivalve mollusk were studied from 2014 2021. Only 13-desmethyl spirolide C (13desmSPXC) an isomer detected, always at low concentrations. Mussel, Mytilus galloprovincialis, was species which accumulated more spirolides, but its nearly restricted cockle, Cerastoderma edule, two clam species,...
Cloud application services are being implemented in all areas of engineering. Manufacturing engineering could benefit from the implementation cloud-technologies that lead to an improved production and product-cost reduction. This paper proposes development a flexible, scalable, versatile, highly affordable open-source cloud-platform for implementing sensor networks support advanced manufacturing. In particular, two-layer-network architecture is present explained through real applications...
In the late autumn of 2018 and 2019, some samples taken by official monitoring systems Cantabria Basque Country were found to be paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP)-positive using a mouse bioassay. To confirm presence PSP toxins obtain their profile, these analyzed an optimized version Official Method AOAC 2005.06 LC-MS/MS (HILIC). The (PSTs) in that geographical area (~600 km coast) was confirmed for first time. estimated toxicities ranged from 170 983 µg STXdiHCl eq.·kg-1 method 150 1094...
Abstract High performance motion systems play an important role in modern technology especially the area of metrology and process equipment related to field micro- nanotechnology. The purpose this study is show how properly design fabricate prototyped mechanisms that integrate metal-polymer flexural pivots for precision applications. Finite element simulations are used understand mechanical behavior these components leading dimensions minimize work done by polymer structures. Simulations...
Open control architectures have many advantages including increased computational resources and flexibility of reconfiguration new manufacturing units. This paper proposes an open architecture for the CNC systems based on source electronics. The software in this is a component-based approach where each component has independent finite state machine (FSM) model. hardware multiprocessor distributed controller, with different levels processing, adaptable specifications. A discussion basic...
Twenty-five years of paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) toxicity in Galician bivalves have been studied. PSP was detected 4785 out 73,740 samples the commercially important bivalve species analyzed from 1995 to 2020. Its general prevalence area 6.5%. Only 1.6% all tested were over regulatory limit (incidence). The maximum level area, 40,800 µg STX 2HCl-eq kg−1, recorded raft mussels Bueu (PON-II, Pontevedra) December 2005. highest values found mussels, which mostly affected by Gymnodinium...
The presence of yessotoxins (YTXs) was analyzed in 10,757 samples Galician bivalves from 2014 to 2022. Only YTX and 45-OH were found. detected 31% the samples, while found 11.6% them. Among containing YTX, 37.3% cases. maximum recorded levels 1.4 0.16 mg YTX-equivalentsg−1, for respectively, which are well below regulatory limit European Union. toxicities raw extracts subjected alkaline hydrolysis strongly linearly related.
