ocean acidification on oysters and oyster larvae‚ as well as how we can all play a role in preventing ocean acidification. Dickson established that oysters need calcium and carbonate ions to build shells. Their shells start out as mostly oregonate‚ and build up to calcite. Ocean acidification is causing a decrease in the materials that oysters need to build their shells‚ and that many other organisms need to build their shells and skeletal systems. Oyster larvae build their shells within the first 48

cutaneous or wound infection caused by Chrysomya megacephala(oriental latrine fly). This fly species is also found in PNG. The experiments were set up to treat larvae of the fly with oil extracted from daga leaf. The result was the oil from daga leaf was toxic to oriental latrine fly larvae. Concentrations of 4-3% of daga leaf oil killed all the larvae exposed (100%) after exposure to 3 1/2 hours. The researchers concluded that oil from daga leaf has medicinal properties which can be further developed.
