The risks of contamination of finfish products with active pathogens largely depend on the type of product concerned and disposal methods of the importing country. Frozen fish used as bait or to feed high-value species present the greatest risk as vehicles of contamination because they are unprocessed. Freezing preserves viral- and some bacterial-pathogens, thus the use of such fish as bait can...

First evidence started to demonstrate the anxiolytic effects of low molecular weight peptides extracted from natural products, such as fish hydrolysate, but their underlying mechanisms remain be elucidated. The objective this study was evaluate effect a chronic administration hydrolysate on stress reactivity and understand involved. Stress response (corticosterone secretion, expression stress-r...

OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of maternal diet during lactation and the use of formula feeds on the development of atopic eczema in infants at risk. DESIGN Mothers who planned to breast feed exclusively were randomly allocated to either a restricted diet (avoiding milk and other dairy products, eggs, fish, peanuts, and soybeans) or a diet without restrictions. Mothers who did not plan to b...

Waste plastics are harmful, toxic, and non-biodegradable. Environmental impacts of waste plastics are raised concern about all over the world for safe and friendly environment. Due to dense population and environmental effects of the major city in the world dumping, incineration and land filling are faced difficulties and challenges. At this circumstances vast of waste plastics are remained vul...

coir pith, a byproduct of coconut fibers and waste material from the coir industry, is stable and not easily degradable due to its high lignin content. coir pith takes a decade to decompose thereby posing environmental hazard and disposal problem. pollution by plastics creates an alternative solution to reduce problems. hence the potential use of coir industrial wastes for production of biopla...

Kitchen wastes containing high amounts of carbohydrates have potential as low-cost substrates for fermentable sugar production. In this study, enzymatic saccharification of kitchen waste was carried out. Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize the enzymatic saccharification conditions of kitchen waste. This paper presents analysis of RSM in a predictive model of the combined ...

Okara (tofu dregs) is a soybean waste product from the tofu and soymilk processing industry. To create useful product, remaining protein content in okara must be used. The goal of this study was to determine enzyme-substrate (E/S) ratio capable producing highest antioxidant activity hydrolysate, as well amino acid composition such hydrolysate (especially potential antioxidants). produce concent...

Problem: The Dutch aquaculture industry is based on fish production in recirculating aquaculture systems. Enforced by legislation the fish farmers have to reduce the waste discharge and are not allowed to discharge farm effluents on the surface waters. The government expresses waste discharge in inhabitant equivalents (I.E = average daily waste production of 1 person during 1 year, expressed in...

A 10 week feeding trial was carried out to evaluate the replacement value of hatchery wastes for fish meal in the diet of laying Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica). 108 female Japanese quails (36 per treatment) were randomly allocated into 3 dietary treatments A, B and C which are fish meal (FM), whole hatchery waste meal (WHWM) and shelless hatchery waste meal (SHWM) based diets respe...
