This study aimed to elucidate the influence of environment pH on survival, growth, energy allocation and oxidative damage of juvenile Scophthalmus maximus (19.89±0.25 g). Six pH treatments (6.3±0.2, 6.8±0.2, 7.3±0.2, 7.8±0.2, 8.3±0.2, 8.8±0.2) lasting for eight weeks were included. Measurements of survival (SR), feed conversion ratio (FCR), speci...

the acehnese mahseer, locally known as keureling, tor tambra is one of the highest economically valued freshwater fishes found in aceh waters. the culture of t. tambra was initiated in aceh province, indonesia more than five years ago. however, the growth rate in captivity has been low, probably due to feeding problems. hence, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the optimum level...

the survival, growth, reproductive and life span characteristics of phallocryptus spinosa were studied at different temperatures in the laboratory. three replicates of 200 newly hatched nauplii were transferred to culture containers at 15, 20, 25 and 30˚c. the larvae were fed with unicellular algae dunaliella tertiolecta and chemically treated yeast known as lansy pz. survival and growth rate o...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different fresh feed supplemented to commercial diet on growth and survival of Oscar fish (Astronauts ocellatus) (initial weight: 1.58-1.70 g) during 60-day period. The husbandry environment consisted of glass aquariums appropriate to growth with a photoperiod cycle of 12 L: 12 D. The water temperature was kept at 28 ±1°C. 360 fries of Oscar (i...

initial growth of quercus castaneifolia (c.a.meyer.) seedling in competition with rubus fructicosus l. was investigated in a caspian lowland intervened forest located in noor city, north of iran. the research was conducted as factorial experiment in three replications. for this purpose, seedlings of 3 and 5 mm in collar diameter (cd) were planted in areas a (covered with rubus), b (without rubu...

Probiotics can improve growth, survival and resistance to pathogenic organisms of the cultivated species in aquaculture systems with water recirculation. However, their possible benefits on biofloc systems have been less studied. In this study, the benefits of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens bacterium, on a biofloc culture of Litopenaeus vannamei were evaluated. B. amyloliquefaciens was applied as d...

background: although borage ( borago officinalis l.) is a valuable medicinal plant, no information is available on the responses of this plant to salinity. for this reason, it is necessary to determine responses of this plant to salinity .  objective: since germination and early growth stage is one of the most critical phases of plant life under salinity condition this experiment was conducted ...

this study surveys on the effects of l-lysine and methionon amino acids on growth performance, survival rate and body composition of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss). fish with initial average weight 105.23 +  6.33 g in 5 treatments fed with different levels of lysine (1 and 3 %) and methionine ( 1 and 2%) for 8 weeks. the results showed that the treatment which fed 2 % methionine had the be...

Background and Aim: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common malignant and invasive tumor of the brain. The relation between prognosis and survival of GBM patients with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) expression is challenging. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the prognosis and survival of patients with GBM and its relationship with EGFR expression. Materials and Methods: This single...
