Domestic marketing networks in inland small-scale fisheries (SSF) provide food and income to millions of the rural poor globally. Yet these contributions remain undervalued, as most trade is informal unmonitored, overlooked research policy. Taking a commodity chain approach, we case study access arrangements governing how people come enter benefit from freshwater fish on Tanzania's Rufiji River...

The effect of dry salting during the cold-smoking process was evaluated on Atlantic salmon initially stored in refrigerated seawater (RSW) or ice. A 2D mathematical model developed from first principles, simulating heat and mass transfer at increasing duration. This validated using experimental values compared with empirical Zugarramurdi Lupín. predicted were used for water activity prediction ...

Aim: To evaluate the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) concentrations in fresh and smoked Clarias geriepinus.
 Study Design: Fifty numbers of geriepinus which range weight between 200.5g 655.2g were collected from selected clustered farmers categorized based on their into five groups. The tissues each fish for analysis PAHs before smoking.
 Place Duration Study: sampled governme...

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) levels in four commonly consumed smoked fish species from markets in Southern Nigeria were assessed to evaluate possible human health risks associated with consumption. Varying levels of PAH congeners were observed in the fish tissues with the highest total concentration of PAHs in Scomber scombrus. High concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene was observed in Cl...
