The Bioaccumulation of Ionizable Organic Compounds in Fish Cell Lines

Bioaccumulation is defined as the enrichment of a compound in an organism relative to the surrounding water or its food, and is an important endpoint in chemical risk assessment. Under laboratory conditions, bioaccumulation is measured as bioconcentration ...

A ribonucleoprotein transfection strategy for CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing and single cell cloning in rainbow trout cells

Kristin Schirmer

Background The advent of the Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 technology marked the beginning of a new era in the field of molecular biology, allowing the efficient and precise creation of targeted mutations in the ge ...

Fish-gut-on-chip: development of a microfluidic bioreactor to study the role of the fish intestine in vitro

Philippe Renaud, Kristin Schirmer, Carolin Drieschner

In this study we present the first fish-gut-on-chip model. This model is based on the reconstruction of the intestinal barrier by culturing two intestinal cell lines from rainbow trout, namely epithelial RTgutGC and fibroblastic RTgutF, in an artificial mi ...

A fish intestinal barrier model to assess the interaction with chemicals in vitro

Hannah Inka Schug

The intestinal epithelium acts as vital gate keeper between the fish and its surrounding environment. A single layer of connected epithelial cells forms a selective barrier, which, among other essential functions, is important for nutrient uptake and defen ...

What is the role of fish intestine as environment-organism barrier? Mechanistic investigations using fish intestinal cells on a chip

Carolin Drieschner

The gut of fish belongs to the most essential barriers that mark the border between the organism and its surrounding environment. The pivotal barrier function, allowing to absorb nutrients from the diet while simultaneously protecting the organism from pat ...

A metacommunity model for the spread of proliferative kidney disease in stream networks

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Luca Carraro, Marino Gatto

Proliferative kidney disease (PKD) affects freshwater salmonid populations in temperate European and North-American rivers. It is caused by the endoparasitic myxozoan Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, which exploits freshwater bryozoans as intermediate hosts. ...

Harvesting of Chlorella sorokiniana by co-culture with the filamentous fungus Isaria fumosorosea: A potential sustainable feedstock for hydrothermal gasification

Christof Holliger, Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Eduardo Pereira Gomes, Stephen Mackay

Despite recent advances in down-stream processing, production of microalgae remains substantially limited because of economical reasons. Harvesting and dewatering are the most energy-intensive processing steps in their production and contribute 20–30% of t ...

Attractiveness of a lateral shelter in a channel as a refuge for juvenile brown trout during hydropeaking

Anton Schleiss, Jean-Marc Ribi, Armin Julius Peter

Peak power production in hydroelectric storage power plants results in frequent and intense flow variations in the rivers downstream of the plants. Fish populations can be negatively impacted when subjected to these so-called hydropeaking phenomena. In res ...

La contamination du Léman par les micropolluants – revue de 40 ans d’études

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro

Lake Geneva pollution by micropollutants – a review of 40 years of study. – Lake Geneva drains a watershed of about 8000 km2, subject to anthropogenic pressures due to a large population, agriculture, and industries. Contaminants released by these activiti ...

Pelletization of micro-algae by induced lichen formation through co-culture with filamentous fungi

Christof Holliger, Pierre Rossi, Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Eduardo Pereira Gomes, Stephen Mackay

The use of micro-algae within industrial applications, such as biofuel production, has several limitations with regard to cost and therefore sustainability. Micro-algae biomass consists of small single cells that stay in suspension making them difficult to ...
