BACKGROUND The identification of malignant cells in effusions by conventional cytology is hampered by its limited sensitivity and specificity. The aim of this study was to investigate the value of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) as adjuncts to conventional cytologic examination in patients with malignant pleural effusions. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 93 inpa...

Study was conducted to study the shelf life, proximate composition, biochemical, microbiological and organoleptic changes in fish finger prepared from minced meat of fish rohu (Labeo rohita) with suitable recipe. Prepared fish finger was stored in refrigerated condition at 4 0 C ± 1 0 C for 11 days. The yield rate of minced meat from the whole fish was 39.31 %. The moisture and protein content ...

the effects of natural zeolite as a bed medium in increasing lettuce and red tilapia growth as well as improvement of water quality parameters in an aquaponic system were investigated. an experiment with a completely randomized design was run with two treatments in triplicates, 1) an aquaponic system without use of zeolite as a control group and 2) use of a small cotton bag, containing 10 g zeo...

The main objective of this study was to describe the proper technological process of hot smoking of common carp as well as to determine the yield of the final product and also proximate and fatty acid composition of hot-smoked common carp meat. The average yield of smoked common carp was 82.19% based on weight of eviscerated and descaled fish or 47% based on weight of live fish. The smoking pro...

Abstract Reverse phase dispersive liquid- liquid microextraction (RP- DLLME) coupled with spectrophotometry is introduced for the detection of total phenol in the muscle tissue of fishes, such as Sphyraena genie, Otolithes ruber, Rastrelliger kangurta, Lutjanus johnii and Barbus Subquin Cunciatus. Phenols in fish tissues were extracted by ultrasonic bath and derivatization with 4- aminoant...

Penja fish is endemic to the waters of West Sulawesi. in great demand because it has many advantages, including being easy obtain, cheap, tastes good, and a source protein. However, processing penja still traditional as result easily damaged short shelf life. One way improve quality drying process produce flour fish. Flour long life, economical, efficient high protein content. an improper can a...
