Bigheaded carps (bighead carp, Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, and silver nobilis) their hybrids play an important ecological economic role in original habitat, while introduced stocks may pose serious risks. To address questions about the persistence invasiveness of these fish, we need to better understand population structures. The genetic structures bigheaded carp populations inhabiting Lake Ba...

Three species of invasive carp—Grass Carp Ctenopharyngodon idella, Silver Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, and Bighead H. nobilis—are rapidly spreading throughout North America. Monitoring their reproduction can help to determine establishment in new areas but is difficult due challenges associated with identifying fish eggs. Recently, random forest models provided accurate identification eggs base...

there is increasing demand for use of natural preservatives such as bacteriocins to control foodborne pathogens in seafoods. this study was performed to evaluate the antimicrobial effects of nisin on staphylococcus aureus in light and heavy salted silver carp fillets (4 and 8% nacl). effect of different concentrations of nisin (0, 0.15, 0.25, 0.75, 1.5 µg/ml) on behavior of s.aureus at unfavour...

introduction: surimi is one of the procedures that nowadays it is suggested to increase the consumption of fish such as silver carp (shabanpour et al., 2008). surimi is washed and minced fish meat myofibrillar concentration of proteins, this would wash out most of the soluble material in surimi (sultanbawa & li- chan, 1998). raw fish freshness and quality of the most important factors affecting...

In the present study, we reported infection with eighteen species of the genus Dactylogyrus, belong to thefamily Dactylogyridae from five breeder fish species, including common carp (Cyprinus carpio), grass carp(Ctenopharyngodon idella), silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), big head carp (Hypophthalmichthysnobilis) and black carp (Myelopharyngodon piceus) which introduced and imported to ...

the aim of this study was to determine the formulation of silver carp fish cracker and checking qualitative changes of cracker in the four time intervals (0, 30, 60 and 90 days), during storage at room temperature. treatments consisted of dried cracker (drying time 2 hours), cracker were fried (drying time 1 hour) and the final treatment was drought cracker that fried at the end of each period....

Cystatins are proteins, which inhibit cysteine proteases, such as papain. In this study, the 336-bp cystatin C gene (family II, HmCysC) of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). HmCysC encodes mature peptide (HmCystatin C), with 111 amino acids. A typical QXXXG motif found HmCystatin it formed a cluster Cyprinus carpio Danio rerio phyl...
