![]() ![]() This interdisciplinary research in behavior, separation science, and effect-directed analysis highlighted the importance of particular invertebrates in coral reefs, the urgent need to protect coral reefs for dolphins and other species, and calls for further vertebrate-invertebrate interaction studies. Repeated rubbing allows these active metabolites to come into contact with the skin of the dolphins, which in turn could help them achieve skin homeostasis and be useful for prophylaxis or auxiliary treatment against microbial infections. and evolution of anatomically mod- tent molecular genetic tool. ![]() The three invertebrates preferentially accessed by the dolphins, collected and analyzed by hyphenated high-performance thin-layer chromatography contained seventeen active metabolites, providing evidence of potential self-medication. 4 Commitments of IFC’s Infrastructure, Communications and Information Technologies, Subnational Finance, Health & Education, and Agribusiness departments (not the entire food-supply chain). It was hypothesized that the presence of bioactive metabolites accounts for this selective rubbing behavior. 3 FY10 and FY11 gures re ect improved methodology for measuring Advisory Services expenditures in IDA countries, incorporating regional projects. Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins ( Tursiops aduncus) have been observed queueing up in natural environments to rub particular body parts against selected corals ( Rumphella aggregata, Sarcophyton sp.) and sponges ( Ircinia sp.) in the Egyptian Northern Red Sea.
