Aquaculture systems may release large amounts of nutrients into the marine ecosystem that can lead to eutrophication. Many seaweed species are efficient in reducing the nutrient concentration in aquaculture waste. In this study, the agarophyte Gelidium elegans originating from Korea was investigated for bioremediation of tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) broodstock effluent (SBE) in a shrimp hatch...

Accumulation of cadmium in the hepatopancreas of the common prawn Palaemon serratus (Pennant) and ultrastructural changes m hepatopancreatic cells were examined after exposure to 3 cadmium concentrations (5, 25.50 ppm) for 44 h. Accumulation of cadmium Ions in 50 ppm solution was 800 % higher compared with control specimens. Absorptive and fibrillar cells (Rand F-cells) in the hepatopancreas we...
