At 10Best, we're always on the lookout for Maui's best restaurants, and while we appreciate places that have a broad culinary range, we can't help but adore restaurants that specialize in a given cuisine. When we're in the mood for Italian food in Maui, we head to Caffé Ciao - a reader favorite - or we count on Casanova Italian Restaurant's solid track record and consistently great dishes. You'll find these places - and any of the restaurants on our list - to be fantastic options for Italian cuisine, and if you're looking to concentrate your efforts, start with the vibrant Wailea area.
Lahaina Pizza Company
Locals have pronounced this pizzeria one of Maui's best, and mainland publications concur. Of course, deep-dish pies are terrific, but the place also benefits from the excitement of downtown Lahaina, great views across the harbor, and performances by well-received vocalists and musicians. Aside from slices of hot, loaded pizza, the menu features refreshing salads, especially the barbecue chicken and the Italian. Pastas, sandwiches, and spicy buffalo wings round out the offerings at this casual eatery. Everyone is welcome to join in on the fun, and Hawaiian hospitality is always at the forefront. (808-661-0700)
In the midst of busy Lahaina, this popular establishment has acquired quite a loyal following over the years. Whether diners come for imported pastas or Midwestern beef, they revel in the entertaining ambience, where servers recite the menu and musicians perform live jazz and rock on Friday nights. As for food, prawns amaretto (in a sauce of brandy, cream, and orange juice) are a local favorite, as is shrimp Longhi, prepared with white wine, butter, and herbs. Ahi torino, crusted in macadamia nuts, is also a classic. Lamb, chicken, and veal break from the standards, and the dessert tray, weighed down by decadence, is totally irresistible. For reservations call 808-667-2288. (808-667-2288)
Ferraro's at Seaside
A lovely terrace along the ocean sets the scene for this achingly romantic restaurant. In the evenings, washed by moonlight and musical strains, diners savor beef tenderloin, grilled veal, and Pacific snapper as the sun dips beneath the horizon. Pastas, lobster, and a daily risotto also tempt the palate following appetizers of grilled prawns or beef carpaccio. Surrounded by lush gardens, patrons relax into the beauty of the evening in a place so quintessentially "Hawaii" that it seems almost too good to be true. With a superb bottle of wine, it practically is. (808-874-8000)
Casanova Italian Restaurant
More than a restaurant, Casanova is that neighborhood institution that fills several roles at once. By day, it's a deli; in the evenings, it becomes a well-loved restaurant; and at night, it morphs into a bar and dance club. At dinner, everyone gathers for pasta, dressed with herb-tinged sauces and pungent cheese. You'll also find lamb, veal, steak, pizza, and ocean-fresh seafood. The selection of appetizers features seafood as well, and the tiramisu is out-of-this-world. Take your time and enjoy the meal, but don't forget to stick around for the festivities afterwards. Even if you don't hit the dance floor, you can check out the bands and sip on something exotic throughout the night. (808-572-0220)
Caffé Ciao
This fashionable European deli will charm you with its fresh-baked breads, flavorful salads, and scrumptious pizzas baked in a wood-burning oven. And whether you choose take-out or table dining, a quick bite inside or a leisurely meal on the sunny terrace, Caffé Ciao will accommodate. Fresh ingredients, including aromatic herbs and perfectly-ripened vegetables, ensure that the resulting dishes are delicious. Pastas, seafood, and an array of gorgeous desserts prove the fact if you had any doubts in the first place. The climate-controlled wine room features 1700 bottles from Italy, California, Australia and France. Finish your perfect evening with the signature gelato, made fresh daily. (808-875-4100)
Marco's Grill and Deli
Authentic recipes, prepared from scratch, characterize the Italian comfort food served at Marco's. That, along with good prices and a welcoming ambience, is reason for its success. The appeal is wide-ranging, too, as you can see from tables filled with families, business people, and couples. They come for eggs and French toast in the morning, sandwiches and pizza during the day, and for lasagna and other noodle dishes in the evenings. Add to that terrific food a convenient location near the airport and you've got an unbeatable formula for longevity. Make sure you see for yourself. (808-877-4446)
Sarento's on the Beach
This well-received, upscale addition to Maui's dining scene grants ocean views and a fabulous menu. Tops on the list are homemade pastas and steaks, followed closely by local seafood and several selections of chicken, lamb, and veal. The carefully-selected wine list offers vintages from western Europe and California, providing an apt complement to any entree. A great experience. (808-875-7555, 800-245-4524)
Penne Pasta
Who says that vacation dining has to be budget-breaking? Certainly not Mark Ellman, the chef and owner of this appealing little cafe. Daily, he treats diners to fresh, flavor-packed Italian fare in generous portions, and folks can't get enough of Penne. Place your order at the counter, take a seat, and wait for pastas, salads, sandwiches, and thin-crust pizzas to be delivered in all their glory. Daily specials increase dinner options and include fresh island fish and lamb osso bucco. A handful of scrumptious desserts and heart-healthy options offer even more reason to go. (808-661-6633)
Fantasies of romantic dinners find realization at this tiny, exquisite restaurant. Only a handful of tables is available, and everyone gets cosseting service, spectacular sunset views, and absolutely tantalizing cuisine. The menu changes regularly to highlight the season's best, but representative dishes include a local steak with potato gnocchi, braised lamb shanks, and a house cioppino decadent with fresh seafood. If you're so inclined, quail saltimbocca makes for a delicious appetizer, luscious in its bacon-wrapped splendor. The adjacent Piano Martini Lounge promises live music, cocktails, and those same glorious sunset views. (808-879-2224)
Fabiani's Bakery and Pizza
Family owned and operated, this new culinary corner located in the heart of Kihei, Maui, is offering it's residents and visitors a little taste of everyday Italian inspired eating! Open three meals a day! Michelle Fabiani, classically trained pastry chef, is usually there in the wee morning hours dusting flour off her apron and preparing breads and pastries. Meanwhile, one year old Gino is home with papa Lorenzo conjuring up new pizza concepts for the evening crowds. Fabiani's Pizza in Kihei with it's fresh Bakery quickly became Kihei's little "darling" of a pizza place. It's because it's naturally so much more. So if you're looing for the best pizza in Kihei, or on Maui for that matter, come to Fabiani's Pizzeria on Lipoa. From Farm to Table: Local Maui produce, hand made artistry, big gatherings for friends and family! ((808)874-0888)

Nellie Tayloe Ross, Wyoming Governor
Nellie Tayloe Ross was elected as the first female governor in the United States and Wyoming's only female governor to date. After the passing of her husband, she took office in 1924. Once completing her term as governor, Ross, by now a polished public speaker, was in high demand on the Chatauqua circuit and traveled across the country. She also remained active in Democratic party politics, eventually serving as National Democratic Committee Chairman. Ross made the seconding speech for Al Smith at the Democratic National Convention in 1928 and campaigned on his behalf. In 1932, she directed the campaign for the women's vote for Franklin D. Roosevelt.
In 1933, Ross was appointed Director of the U.S. Mint by President Roosevelt, becoming the first woman to hold that position. As such, Ross became the first woman to have her likeness imprinted on a mint metal and inscribed on the cornerstone of a government building; three such structures were constructed during her tenure, the gold depository at Fort Knox, the silver depository at West Point and the U.S. Mint in San Francisco. During her twenty year tenure as director Ross presided over the greatest expansion in mint production.
Ross Hall is named in her honor.

The plan to build a mosque in New York City near the site of where the World Trade Center once stood has sparked outrage across the nation from 9/11 victims' families to high level politicians.
The New York Daily News has reported that the developers have changed the name of the proposed Islamic center. It had been referred to as the Cordoba House.
Cordoba, Spain was a key city captured by Muslim conquerors who immortalized their victory over the Christian Spaniards by making the city's church into the world's third-largest mosque.
However, the NYC mosque, which developers want to build near Ground Zero, is no longer being called the Cordoba House. Instead, the developers have renamed the project Park 51.
Former Muslim Walid Shoebat appeared on the Friday, July 23 edition of the CBNNewschannel's Morning News to talk about Muslim history and how the name "Cordoba" is recognized by Islamists around the world. Shoebat is the author of the book titled For God or For Tyranny. Click play to watch the extended interview.

To the editor:
The election is finally over, and we can enjoy a hopefully long respite from the seemingly endless stream of political ads and rhetoric. At least I thought so. Unfortunately, a select group of people want to continue the campaign with an onslaught of really libelous and venomous submissions attacking President Obama and the government. I have no doubt these calls are from a small handful of individuals that have nothing better to do but to create these statements.
I completely embrace the First Amendment and its protection of one's right of free speech without fear of interference from authority and government. But I question these Opinion Line submitters and their enjoyment of anonymity. It's very unfortunate that we do not know the identity of the callers. Why can't they do as I do and put their name to the statements? The spineless and cowardly use of the Opinion Line anonymously by these people is very offensive.
Throughout the campaign there were numerous letters to the editor voicing support for or opposition to the two candidates. These letters were all signed by their authors. This is the proper way to voice your opinion. Using the Opinion Line to spew hate and libelous material is the coward's way. They should be ashamed of sinking this low.
Hang up the phone, write a letter and sign it. Put your name to your feelings.

To String Question
Often during design discussions or workshops someone will write down a word that is meaningful in the domain, perhaps in a box in a collaboration diagram, or as a piece of data, or being shown in the user interface. Recently I've been asking "what is that the toString() of?" when I see these words. This really stirs programmers who are designing, making them think about all the responsibilities and related concepts rather than escaping with a string that will be held somewhere.
Yes, I know a good example is needed. Later - I'm tired! Plus links to stuff on "finding" objects.
Hey, where's that example you promised? --
Sorry Taral, but the next post makes the point perfectly --
That the string may be found "as a piece of data, or being shown in the user interface" suggests that the question is "what domain object is that string a representation of?". For example, if a GUI has a box which says "red", which object is it that is red, or knows what the colour is. The
seems to be a way of getting from a surface view of a system to its internal structure. It makes the assumption that there is a straightforward mapping between visible and internal entities, or at least it makes the developers think about whether there is, can be and should be.
For those who aren't familiar with toString():
On a related note, one of the things that seems to have gone by the wayside in Java (at least from the perspective of a
) is the difference between #displayString and #printString. The audience for the #displayString of an object is application users. The audience for the #printString of an object is application developers. In both cases it is the object's responsibility to decide how to represent itself as a String. I think most people interpret the Java toString() method as #displayString. I still think it is very useful, regardless of language, to have the two different representations for the two different audiences. And yes, I have been criticized for using this Smalltalk idiom in Java - so sue me. --
One of the most important principals of software design is, "don't provide something in a base class or interface that isn't necessary." Smalltalk's #displayString is such an example. You see, Smalltalk is showing its age - it was invented during a time when a simple string is good enough for display purposes. Today's software requires multiple strings available for display purposes, formatted differently depending on the viewer. Therefore, Java doesn't deserve such treatment. If you need toDisplayString, create it. If you need toHtmlString, create it. Better yet, in your architecture, create an OurObject
that extends from Object, and add all the gnifty things your world needs. --
Let's not forget the always-interesting #storeString. The "audience" for storeString is other objects, who wish to recreate the object. I find it *very* useful to ask java developers what the storeString of an object is, especially given that the Java environment often makes the answer quite tedious to reconstruct. --
in both cases. For #displayString I have ended up with a
interface whose single
property returns a string suitable for use as a label or caption (and as a key for an icon or i18n text). The original use was for objects appearing in the user interface, but it's also proved handy for debug traces.
After a lot of piecemeal tinkering with #storeString I have ended up subclassing all persistable objects from a
class with a
method returning round-trippable stringifications of any children that are not themselves
s. Any instance is thus guaranteed to be (de)stringifiable as a whole and can readily be persisted as eg XML. (This incidentally complies with
's recommendation in
that storage and communication should be string-based rather than binary). --
in both cases. I interpret toString() as targeting the application programmer and use it in stacktraces and log messages (we do no i18n on error messages for the application developer and assume english - otherwise you would have to i18n the javadoc too). And something like #displayString for end user display has ended up in an interface too (providing a Locale object for i18n). --

How to Explain Your Tastes
Reader Comments (100)
David Y.
I am from MI and I love Vernors, but now I live in CO and can't get it. Its like suped up ginger ale!
Sadly, when ordering Dr Pepper in SOME (read: nasty) restaurants, they'll say insane things like, "Oh, I'm sorry, we don't carry that. Would you like Mr. Pibb, instead?"
My response is always polite. "Ew, GOD, no. Why would I drink THAT vile spawn of evil? Give me unsweet* tea with no lemon."
I get looks, but my disdain for Mr. Pibb goes very, very deep.
It probably has to do with an incident in sixth grade where the science teacher was drinking Mr. Pibb and half the people in the class were dying of suppressed laughter because they had dissolved an entire piece of chalk in it. The dude couldn't even tell. Nasty. Pure nasty.
* I'm from the southern US (Alabama). "SweetTea (tm)" is sweet enough to use as waffle syrup. Try coming to the southern US and ordering UNsweet tea. You think Dr Pepper gets no respect? Pshaw, I say. P. Shaw.

| Dates.
Whew. I was afraid you were going to say "earwax."
As far as I (and many others) are concerned, the only acceptable instance of ingesting Dr Pepper is as an ingredient in barbecue. Really. Many BBQ competetors use it in a marinade for their ribs, or in a BBQ sauce.
I prefer to use real sugar Cherry Coke.
I wish people got this irate about things that mattered. Like cheese.
This comic has been brought to you by the wonderful Dr. Pepper
Not only do I like Dr. Pepper, but I prefer it warm. Drinking it cold mutes all the complexity of the drink.
What, they still make that crap? I have tried Dr Pepper a few times. Fortunately I have never been thirsty enough to willingly drink more than a few sips. But then, I haven't crossed a desert on foot either. So, it could happen.
Don't forget - most everything on The Colbert Report is "sponsored" by Dr Pepper - there even was a Dr Pepper Flavor Zone for the recent interview with Radiohead. Stephen says it's for "indie cred".
I have deep, deep contempt for all the Dr Pepper haters up there.
Dr Pepper I can't even say it that I don't throw up in my mouth a little. It's how we would punish the kids in our neighborhood (when we were kids) for breaking the social rules - make em drink a Dr Pepper. Picture the scene in Temple of Doom when Mola Ram makes Indie drink the Blood of Kali...
While I tend to prefer more natural, less high fructose infested soft drinks, Dr Pepper, root beer (IBC or Barqs, not the weak, overly sweet A&W) and Vernors all have places in my heart. Son muy deliciosas. Anyone who says otherwise is completely and utterly wrong. (I'm not nor have I ever been a Michigan resident. However, my parents are from Michigan, so I may be genetically predisposed to liking Vernors.)
I've heard some say that Dr Pepper is that company's version of Cherry Coke, but I haven't tried a taste test to verify/discredit the claim.
There's one other 'big' cola alternative to Coke & Pepsi: RC (Royal Crown). On a sweetness scale, I think it was someplace between Coke & Pepsi, but it's been years since I've any of all three. Not much of a cola drinker, myself, though I don't mind Dr Pepper. And it's caffeine content does have a good kick. (More on caffeine later...)
I remember Mr. Pibb, but never liked it enough to try regularly... it DID remind me of Dr Pepper, though, back when I was young. My dad used to drink it, back when it was more regularly available. As for the claim of it being a variant of Dr Pepper, I'm reminded of Sun Drop, a 'variant' of Mountain Dew. It's like the 'generic' version of MD, but in my opinion, has a bit more flavor kick to it... Mountain Dew tastes watered down by comparison, and I used to be addicted to MD back in college. (I gave it up cold turkey when I tired to use it one morning to perk myself up, and fell asleep halfway through the can. I now drink caffeinated beverages occasionally, and the 'kick' actually does work for me again.)
All this talk about flavor in soft drinks, though, is kind of amusing... when you think about it, it's all rather disgusting. It's just a matter of personal preference. And/or personal TOLLERANCE!
As for restaurants offering root beer as an alternative to Dr Pepper, that may be because the servers realize that when a patron orders Dr Pepper, that person doesn't want the usual Coke or Pepsi product, and offers the (likely) only non-Coke or non-Pepsi product on their menu as a matter of course. Just sayin', from having worked in the food industry off and on over the years.
Finally, speaking of product placement, anyone remember the old Godzilla movie, Godzilla 1985? The American release of the movie had extra scenes spliced in to 'Americanize' the movie, and one of the sponsors of the film's Stateside release was Dr Pepper. Thus, throughout all the American footage, characters were either drinking cans of Dr Pepper, or walking past Dr Pepper vending machines. (All of which were ridiculously clean & shiny; you couldn't NOT notice the things!) A couple of years after that, Dr Pepper had a pair of ads on tv based upon Godzilla-like creatures destroying a city, only to be satiated with Dr Pepper. (In the first one, the monster even picked up a train car labelled 'cola' and threw it into a building in disgust, ultimately being calmed by a large dose of Dr Pepper. In the second ad, a female version of the monster spurned the male's advances until he gave her a tub of Diet Dr Pepper. Funny stuff for a kaiju eiga fan like myself.)
Dr Pepper is a very weird drink. It's delicious from a soda fountain, but it's always a disappointment when I buy it from a gas station or something. Maybe it's just me.
Around here (southern Illinois), the teenagers all drink either Dr Pepper or Mt. Dew. Actually, Ski is preferred over Mt. Dew by some, it's locally bottled.
I know that I'm risking the scorn of the purists, but vanilla Dr Pepper from Sonic is to die for! Half price during rush hour! (No, I don't work for Sonic, just sayin'.)
It's Black Cherry and Apple. Seriously.
I love Dr Pepper and I can say with almost absolute certainty that it's Black Cherry and Apple.
I LOVE Dr Pepper!
I'm filled with joy everytime my stupid supermarket has it available.
My brother on the other hand hates it. As if Coca Cola would be any good...
Wait, I don't get it. Is this a thing? Is Dr Pepper not universally loved? Is that a thing that happens?
I've always loved Dr Pepper, and have never known anyone who doesn't love Dr Pepper. Have I been an ostracized social outcast this entire time?
I, I might need to go for a walk.
I went to see the Bloodhound Gang in concert about 10-15 yrs ago. They bet a $100 that no one in the audience could drink a 12 pack of warm Dr Pepper in an hour without puking. They quickly had a volunteer. They gave him a 12er, and let him sit on stage. They kept their $100 bill.
Dr Pepper or Barr's Dandelion and Burdock, I'll choose either when I'm thirsty - not least because the rest of the family will leave it well alone. D&B probably has the highest burp factor of any commercially available soft drink, and could beat most beers as well.
Apparently just mentioning Dr Pepper in your comic is the secret to generating a brazilian comments.
If you want a terrible soda, drink Moxie.
@Amy: Caffeine-free Dr Pepper is missing one of the flavors of the normal one as well as caffeine, and it's pretty noticeable. Don't let that stop you from still looking for it, though.
I've never had to defend myself for liking Dr Pepper, and I don't think I've met anyone that hated it. I still have to wonder why it's never actually available in restaurants - the server always asks me "is Mr Pibb okay?". Alwaaaaays.
How's Lemon & Paeroa, (L&P), for an obscure soft drink?
Anyone recognize that one ?
It has the highest burb factor of any drink I've ingested although I haven't tried D&B, AnalogKid.
For the record to commenter mcinsand, the hot southern ginger ale is "Blenheim" ginger ale and is still very much around see http://www.blenheimgingerale.com/
Also, I couldn't find the video online, but way back when SNL was funny, they did a parody of the "I'm a Pepper" Dr Pepper commercials casting it as a cult: "Hi, I'm Jane and I'm a pepper. Would you like some literature?"
A good strong reader touche` after the Dr Pepper debacle of the last comments. Well played, sir.
Dr. Pepper drinkers of the world! UNITE!!
We are the people of god! we are the 23,000 who will be saved from the rapture!
Lemon & Paeroa? Obscure?
Surely you jest - it's world famous (in New Zealand)
I'm a bit surprised that some despise Dr Pepper... but then, I like all sorts of things people find odd, disgusting, or contemptible. I can't be bothered long about any of it.
Regarding the Dr Pepper vs. Mr. Pibb comments: it reminds me of other soft drinks, where one is fairly well-known and the other less so, and some have preferences for the lesser known one. Like those that prefer Fresca compared to Squirt. Or Mello Yello compared to Mountain Dew. (Please, I'm not interested in which one is the well-known and which one is the lesser-- I hope you get my point regardless.)
As for the root beer vs. Dr Pepper, I actually like both. I must have a severe sweet tooth, because my root beer preference was A&W for a long time. (And as far as Pepsi vs. Coke-- I've always gone with Pepsi, the supposedly sweeter option.) But then I discovered Virgil's, which is a crafted root beer with cane sugar instead of corn syrup. There is something about soda with cane sugar that I do prefer.
Oh, and this might be pure heresy to everyone, but I really do adore the Cherry Vanilla version of Dr Pepper. (Well, okay, maybe everyone except the one that said Sonic's Vanilla Dr P was awesome.)
as someone who lives in texas, it never occured to me that there might be a class of people who might be repulsed by Dr. Pepper. You've enlightened me even further.
All this talk of Dr Pepper means I have to go out and buy one now.
For what it's worth, I'm one of the people who loves it.
I think mcinsand is referring to Buffalo Rock Southern Spice Ginger Ale, which is indeed still among us, though hard to find outside the South. I have my parents bring it up from Georgia for me. It's a bit odd for a soft drink, but wonderful if you have an upset tummy.
As for Dr Pepper, I learned to like it as a kid because nobody else in my family would touch it, so it was the one guaranteed way to prevent my siblings from stealing my drink. Other than mixing a "suicide" at the fountain, of course... come to think of it, that pretty much ended up tasting like Dr Pepper.
I love Dr. Pepper. Then again, I like Jamaican ginger beer, which makes Vernor's taste like 7-Up.
@beejootx Never actually tried Mr Pibb. Where do you live? Is it a European thing?
Oh man, all you guys talking about how polarized soda opinions can be, you have to try Spruce Beer (soft drink, not alcohol). It's available only in Quebec though, as far as I know. My dad and I make special grocery trips for it, when we visit the province. Heck, we convince OTHER people to make special shopping trips to get it for us, if they happen to go there.
It's great stuff; tastes just like licking a Christmas tree! But in a good way :)

No, it isn't Blenheim, which, for the record (*grin*) is totally different. I actually still have the bottle from that day with my father.
I am a caffiene addict and though I have given up gladly all other source of painfull (for me) caffiene, but I can still hear the Dr Pepper calling me. (Sigh). I just can't quit you, Dr Pepper.
Thanks, but I think we're still off target a little. The Buffalo Rock ginger ale bottles have a slightly different logo, and even the ones going back to the early 1900's seem to have painted product and logo names. Mine looks like this one::
The more I think about drinking another, though, the more I am rethinking any disparaging comments I made about Dr Pepper, and it's been 3 decades since I got that one.
I'm always amazed at how worked up people get over Dr pepper. No other soda generates nearly this amount of conflict.
I had a Dr Pepper once. Wasn't anything special. I'd drink it if it were the only thing there but otherwise wouldn't have it.

Better attitude today... I was freaking out last night about my weight. I took a step back & reread my journal... only to see that I am forcing myself to eat. If I'm not hungry, why am I eating so damn much? Habit. I need to either cut back on my portions, wait longer between meals, or skip some meals altogether.
Today I am listing the good things that have come along with PB, even if the weight hasn't flown off.
* No sugar crashes, which means no migraines
* No horrible food cravings
* "Normal" bathroom visits, no more wheat-induced emergency trips
* Better temperament in general, as being hungry all the time made me a real b*tch
* Eating the veggies I buy instead of letting them rot while I eat pizza
That's it for now. Happy day!

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL), a reagent that utilizes clotting enzymes extracted from horseshoe crab blood, is said to be among the most accurate and reliable indicators of bacteria.
The Atlantic horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus, dates back 445 million years, making it one of the oldest creatures on Earth.
It is still a matter of some debate precisely why horseshoe crabs have remained the same over time and survived mass extinctions unscathed. (After all, we weren't there.) But many scientists agree that the vivid blue-colored blood of the horseshoe crab likely played a role in its survival. The blood coagulates when it encounters bacteria, enabling the horseshoe crab to "wall up" wounds and rapidly isolate infectious agents before they can spread. The ability of horseshoe crab blood to detect bacteria has served as an invaluable biomedical resource for people worldwide. Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL), an FDA-licensed reagent that utilizes the clotting enzymes that are extracted from the blood, is the most sensitive, accurate, and reliable indicator of its kind.
Much of the continued survival of the Atlantic horseshoe crab can be attributed to its inherent adaptability; however, in some areas along the Eastern seaboard, notably the Northeast, horseshoe crabs have been taken in substantial numbers to provide bait for fisheries, primarily including American eel and conch fisheries.
But here in South Carolina, conservation of the horseshoe crab has been a major focus almost since James Cooper, Ph.D.—a pioneer in gel-clot LAL technology—founded Endosafe in 1987 to manufacture and distribute LAL products. (Endosafe was purchased by Charles River in 1994.) In fact, it was Cooper and his wife, Francine, who led some of the earliest efforts to protect horseshoe crab populations in South Carolina where the company was based.
Prior to 1991, there were no laws or regulations in South Carolina protecting horseshoe crabs. In 1992, Cooper drafted the first legislation calling for the management and regulation of horseshoe crab fisheries, permitting horseshoe crabs to only be used for biomedical applications (LAL production) and marine biological research, but not as bait for the eel and whelk (or sea snail) industries. As a result, horseshoe crabs are more protected in South Carolina than anywhere else in the world.
Today, we collect blood from horseshoe crabs under highly controlled procedures that help ensure the donor crabs are returned to their natural environment unharmed. We are committed to employing only fishermen licensed by the Department of Natural Resources to hand harvest horseshoe crabs (as opposed to trawling). Trained employees inspect the crabs once they are brought into our lab, where only measured amounts of blood are harvested from healthy adult crabs. They are released back into the wild the same day they're collected. Once returned to the water, the horseshoe crab's blood volume rebounds very quickly.
Our own rapid testing technology, the FDA-licensed PTS™ cartridge, further safeguards this 445-million-year-old species by using 20 times less raw material than traditional LAL tests. As the Endosafe scientists have refined their technology over the years, the amount of raw material needed to perform an LAL test has steadily declined. For example, the kinetic chromogenic assay (KCA) uses 50% of the raw material used in a conventional gel-clot test. The new Endosafe®-PTS uses less than 5% of the raw material of a gel-clot test.
Regional and state surveys suggest that the horseshoe crab population is stable, if not increasing, in South Carolina, which in the long run will benefit both humans and marine life.
