Cleaner fish, i.e. various wrasse (Labridae) species and lumpsucker Cyclopterus lumpus, are to an increasing extent used for biocontrol of the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis in European salmon farming. Although efficient de-licers, cleaner fish mortality levels in salmon farms are often high. Bacterial infections are common, and Vibrio splendidus-related strains are frequently identified ...

Enteric red mouth disease (also known as Yersiniosis) is one of the most significant bacterial infections in coldwater fish farms that cause significant mortalities and economical losses in the salmonids fish farms, especially in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). ERM is caused by the gram negative pathogen bacteria Yersinia ruckeri that has five O-serotypes (O1, O2, O5, O6 and O7), five oute...

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...

The effect of aqueous solution of citric acid (CA) on the lipid stability of the European catfish (Silurus glanis) fillets during frozen storage (up to 6 months) was investigated. Rancidity development was measured by several biochemical indices (free fatty acids, peroxides and TBA) and complemented by the measurement of expressible moisture and sensory evaluation (flesh odor, consistency and f...

this study presents, a comprehensive dataset that documents and provides a new and updated checklist of the freshwater fishes of the poorly known area of iran including makran and mashkid river basins in the east and south eastern iran. the list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained as a result of extensive field expeditions, examination of ichthyological ...

In this study, concentrations of mercury (Hg) and 16 other elements as well as methylmercury speciation were quantified in muscle and liver of two commercial fish species. It was also our intention to evaluate potential risks to human health associated with seafood consumption. The fish species, Mullet and Kutum (Caspian White fish) fishes, were obtained from Tonekabon at the Iranian waters of ...

in this study, the effect of green tea extract was studied on quality of surimi produced from fish silver carp during refrigerated storage. surimi was prepared and immersed with various concentrations of tea extracts (0, 2 and 4%). samples were refrigerated for 15 days and were performed chemical tests include ph, total volatile bases nitrogen (tvb-n), thiobarbitoric acid (tba) test and total b...
