Impact of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) cage culture in Mjoifjordur, Eastern Iceland on the chemistry of the sediment was investigated. Sediment samples were collected using a Shipek grab in December 2003. A core sub-sample was taken from each grab for analyzing total organic matter, total organic carbon, total nitrogen and phosphorus in different depths from three stations at various distances...

the objective of this study was to compare growth performance and feed conversion ratios of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) and brook trout (salvelinus fontinalis) juveniles in monoculture and duo-culture in freshwater and seawater under aquarium conditions. the fish were about 2-months old hatchery-reared brook and rainbow trout with initial weights of 0.934±0.033 (n=360) and 1.014±0.019 (...

this study investigated the inhibitory effects of bacillus licheniformis on g1 and g2 aflatoxins in culture media and kilka fish meal. two concentrations of aflatoxins (8 and 12 ppb for g1 and g2) and (2 and 4 ml from aflatoxins standard per 50g of fish meal) were used in culture media and kilka fish meal respectively. the doses of bacillus were 3 and 4% for this experiment. changes of aflatoxi...
