This study aims to develop an alternative field-based approach interrupt the life cycle of O. viverrini. The effects temperature, salinity, acidity, ultraviolet A, B, C radiation, and combinations these physicochemical factors on loss infectivity Opisthorchis viverrini cercariae were analyzed determine values required for 50 95 % lethal concentrations (LC50 LC95) period infection success (LI50 ...

this research was conducted to study the length-weight and length-length relationships and condition factor of six cyprinid fish species viz. alburnus atropatena , barbus lacerta , capoeta capoeta , carrasius gibelio , romanogobio macropterus and pseudorasbora parva from zarrineh river (urmia lake basin, iran). a total of 188 specimens ranging from 2.9 to 21.4cm in total length and 0.22 to 176g...

A 363 foot wide x 19 foot deep x 0.25 inch aperture spillway barrier net fabricated of Dynema was installed in Highline Lake in August 1999 to control escapement of juvenile and adult nonnative fish. The net’s placement met the screening requirement in the Procedures for Stocking Nonnative Fish Species in the Upper Colorado River Basin and allowed the stocking of bluegill and largemouth bass in...

Willow minnow, Gnathopogon caerulescens, is a commercially important freshwater fish species in Japan. In particular, female fish with eggs are more expensive than male fish. Many methods have been tested to achieve 100% willow minnow female production; however, none of them were successful because of the temperature-dependent sex determination mechanism. To date, the molecular mechanism underl...
