Description

Micro-CT was performed to a Phascolosoma (Phascolosoma) stephensoni specimen. This sample was fixed in formalin and preserved in ethanol. Specimen was stained with 1% Iodine dissolved in 96% ethanol. Scan was performed with a Skyscan 1172 at a voltage of 50kV and 198μΑ without filter for a half rotation of 180o . This specimen was scanned at the highest camera resolution with an exposure time of 946ms. This scan was performed for the visualisation of the retractor muscles of this specimen within the framework of MAPWORMS project funded from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement N° 101046846 . Specimen was provided by Luigi Musco (CONISMA) and scanned by Niki Keklikoglou.

Description

This scan was performed for the assesment of the effects of climate change and ocean acidification on marine gastropods within the ECCO project (https://ecco.hcmr.gr/). Micro-CT was performed to Hexaplex trunculus gastropods which were maintained under low pH and increased temperature. For this specimen, no contrast agent was used. Scan was performed with a Skyscan 1172 at a voltage of 100kV and 100μΑ with an aluminium and copper filter for a half rotation of 180o . Images were acquired at a pixel size of 13.79μm with an exposure time of 2480ms. Specimen was provided and scanned by Eva Chatzinikolaou.
