Striped Bass Egg Abundance and Viability in the Roanoke River, North Carolina, and Young-of-Year Survivorship, for 1993
(East Carolina University, 1995-10)Striped bass spawning activity in the Roanoke River, North Carolina, was documented in 1993 by sampling for eggs at Barnhill's Landing (River Mile 117), which is just downstream of the spawning grounds between the towns ... -
Striped Bass Egg Abundance Viability in Scotland Neck, Roanoke River, North Carolina, for 1991
(East Carolina University, 1992-10)From 15 April to 14 June 1991, annual production and viability estimates of striped bass, Morone saxarilis, eggs spawned in the Roanoke River, North Carolina, were determined by sampling downstream of the spawning grounds ... -
A study of composition, abundance, and fatty acid profiles of zooplankton in Albemarle Sound and Chowan River, North Carolina during spring and early summer
(East Carolina University, 2014)In the Albemarle Sound and Chowan River, North Carolina, river herring (alewife and blueback herring) once comprised a commercially important fishery; however, this fishery has since collapsed and a moratorium on river ... -
A Study of the Abundance, Distribution, and Grazing Effects of Zooplankton in the Chlorophyll Maximum (CMAX) of the Neuse River Estuary, North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2012)Phytoplankton tend to accumulate in distinct zones referred to as chlorophyll maxima, or CMAX. A pronounced CMAX occurs in the Neuse River Estuary (NRE), North Carolina, where as much as over 60% of the estuary's phytoplankton ... -
Sub-lethal toxic effect of Bisphenol A on Caenorhabditis elegans : the role of stress resistance genes in BPA-induced growth inhibition
(East Carolina University, 2014)Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have become of concern for a variety of health issues. Bisphenol-A (BPA) is a widely studied EDC and has been characterized by its estrogen-like effects. BPA is a prevalent component ... -

(East Carolina University, 2016-04-29)Claudin-7 belongs to a group of tight junction membrane proteins that play vital roles in many human diseases including human lung cancer. Lung cancer is noted to be the leading cause of cancer death for both men and women ... -
SYNAPTOPODIN-2 ISOFORM A AND D EXPRESSION IN HT-29 HUMAN COLON ADENOCARCINOMA CELLS
(East Carolina University, 2013)Synaptopodin-2 is a largely unfolded actin-binding protein that also possesses the characteristics of a hub protein. Synaptopodin-2 has other known binding partners such as filamin and [alpha]-actinin (Weins, et al. 2001 ... -
A Synthesis of Red Drum Feeding Ecology and Diets from North Carolina and South Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2014)The trophic interactions of the red drum Sciaenops ocellatus have been previously researched. However diet data on the largest adults (>750mm TL) are very limited. As fisheries management moves towards a goal of multi-species ...
