Résumé:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5600.
The objective of this project is:
1. To collect and cryopreserve living cells spanning the major physiological systems in beluga's at Hendrickson Island.
Physiological systems will be target by harvesting cells from the following tissues: blood, liver, adrenals, thyroid, gonad, kidney, and spleen. The desired ou...

Résumé:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5471.
The objectives of this research project are to:
1. Characterize the effects that chemical extracts from the traditional food samples have on a number of cellular processes. Their results can indicate the type of toxicity that those chemical extracts may cause.
2. Use the Arctic beluga as a "clean" reference in inves...

Résumé:
The objectives of this research project are:
1. to investigate the impact of common preparation methods on the concentrations of omega-3 fatty acids and environmental contaminants in beluga muktuk;
2. to determine if phase separation in beluga muktuk causes oil and solid phases to have significantly different omega-3 fatty acid and contaminant levels; and
3. to suggest possible beluga muktuk co...

20082006 Résumé:
The objectives of this study are to collect brain samples from beluga whales harvested in the ISR for
contaminant and brain analyses. The researcher will establish whether a link exists between contaminant exposure and brain chemistry. This information is important for understanding whether contaminants are affecting beluga health.
Sampling will take place for four to six weeks at Hendrickson...

Résumé:
This research will examine the nervous (i.e., brain) and immune systems of beluga by collecting these tissues from harvested animals for laboratory analyses. This study will help to determine how contaminants affect the health of belugas. In addition, the data collected may lead to a better understanding of why whales strand themselves on the shoreline as it has been suggested that beached whale...
chercheur principal:Bell, Bob Année(s) de permis:
1993
Résumé:
This project was initiated following the concern voiced by the six ISR communities about the presence and levels of contaminants in the major country food sources. Samples of body tissues will be taken from charr, whitefish, seals and belugas in order to assess for heavy metal, organochlorine and PCB contaminants. These samples will be taken while other field research is being conducted by Fishe...

Résumé:
The Beluga Harvest Monitoring Program is an on-going program conducted by the Fisheries Joint Management Secretariat that involves the monitoring of the beluga harvest in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region. Data and samples are collected from harvested whales in order to assess contaminant levels as well as population and reproductive parameters....
