Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2024 Nov; 121(49):e2415854121. PMID: 39556758
The ability to follow the evolutionary trajectories of specific neuronal cell types has led to major insights into the evolution of the vertebrate brain. Here, we study how cave life...

Maric B, Schuster S, Machnik P
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf . 2024 Oct; 286:117187. PMID: 39447290
Phthalates are key additives in many plastic products and among the most frequently used plasticizers. The release of some of them into the environment has been shown to have serious...

Machnik P, Biazar N, Schuster S
Commun Biol . 2023 Mar; 6(1):309. PMID: 36959338
Although isoeugenol is one of the most widely used anesthetics in fish, its actual mode of action and thus its applicability for particular interventions is poorly understood. Here we determined...

Machnik P, Schuster S
Molecules . 2021 Nov; 26(22). PMID: 34834026
Modern societies use a continuously growing number of chemicals. Because these are released into the environment and are taken up by humans, rigorous (but practicable) risk assessment must precede the...

Schirmer E, Schuster S, Machnik P
Commun Biol . 2021 Apr; 4(1):465. PMID: 33846518
Bisphenols are important plasticizers currently in use and are released at rates of hundreds of tons each year into the biosphere. However, for any bisphenol it is completely unknown if...

Machnik P, Schirmer E, Gluck L, Schuster S
Sci Rep . 2018 Dec; 8(1):17541. PMID: 30510264
In animal husbandry, livestock industry and research facilities, anaesthetic agents are frequently used to moderate stressful intervention. For mammals and birds, procedures have been established to fine-tune anaesthesia according to...

Machnik P, Leupolz K, Feyl S, Schulze W, Schuster S
J Exp Biol . 2018 May; 221(Pt 13). PMID: 29789405
The parallel occurrence in archerfish of fine-tuned and yet powerful predictive C-starts as well as of kinematically identical escape C-starts makes archerfish an interesting system to test hypotheses on the...

Machnik P, Leupolz K, Feyl S, Schulze W, Schuster S
J Exp Biol . 2018 May; 221(Pt 13). PMID: 29789403
Archerfish use two powerful C-starts: one to escape threats, the other to secure prey that they have downed with a shot of water. The two C-starts are kinematically equivalent and...

Commun Integr Biol . 2009 Aug; 1(2):128-31. PMID: 19704868
The electric organ discharges (EODs) of male southern bulldog fish, Marcusenius pongolensis, are of longer pulse duration than those of females, and grow with body size.1 In a playback experiment,...

J Exp Biol . 2008 Jun; 211(Pt 12):1969-77. PMID: 18515728
In adult males of the South African weakly electric bulldog fish, Marcusenius pongolensis, the duration of the electric organ discharge (EOD) increases with body size over lifetime. Although there is...
