Abalone growth and associated aspects: now from a metabolic perspective
(Wiley, 2018)Worldwide, there are approximately 100 Haliotis species, more commonly known as abalone or ‘Paua’ in New Zealand, ‘Venus's‐ears’ in Greece, ‘Awabi’ in Japan, ‘Perlemoen’ in South Africa and ‘Ormers’ in Europe. Regardless ... -
Application of metabolomics to identify functional metabolic changes associated with Haliotis midae growth
(North-West University, 2018)The South African abalone, "perlemoen" (as it is called locally) industry is largely based on farming with Haliotis midae, which has been commercially cultured in man-made shore-based systems with great success for the ... -
The cross-tissue metabolic response of abalone (Haliotis midae) to functional hypoxia
(The Company of Biologists, 2018)Functional hypoxia is a stress condition caused by the abalone itself as a result of increased muscle activity, which generally necessitates the employment of anaerobic metabolism if the activity is sustained for prolonged ... -
From untargeted LC-QTOF analysis to characterisation of opines in abalone adductor muscle: theory meets practice
(Elsevier, 2017)Abalone have a unique ability to use pyruvate, various amino acids and dehydrogenases, to produce opines as means to prevent the accumulation of NADH during anaerobic conditions. In this study, the theoretical masses, ... -
Uncovering the metabolic response of abalone (Haliotis midae) to environmental hypoxia through metabolomics
(Springer, 2018)Introduction Oxygen is essential for metabolic processes and in the absence thereof alternative metabolic pathways are required for energy production, as seen in marine invertebrates like abalone. Even though hypoxia has ... -
Untargeted metabolite profiling of abalone using gas chromatography mass spectrometry
(Springer, 2016)Abalone meat is a delicacy worldwide, fetching high prices and a valuable source of income for the many countries farming and exporting this commodity. The quality of abalone is based on its unique sensory properties and ...
