A lipase producing bacterium, Bacillus cereus MSU AS was isolated from the gut of a marine fish Sardinella longiceps. In total, seven agricultural waste substrates (coconut oil cake, neem oil cake, onion skin waste, wheat bran, jack fruit waste, banana skin peels and pomegranate skin peel) were selected for solid state production of lipase by B. cereus MSU AS. Among the tested substrates, onion...

Composting is a good recycling method to fully utilise all the organic wastes present in kitchen waste due to its high nutritious matter within the waste. In this present study, the optimised mixture proportions of kitchen waste containing vegetable scraps (V), fish processing waste (F) and newspaper (N) or onion peels (O) were determined by applying the simplex-centroid mixture design method t...

Quality of school meals is one of the major concerns of governments and international organizations worldwide. This study aims to evaluate nutritional compliance of meals served at a Portuguese primary school considering the portions stated by Portuguese Education Ministry. To evaluate adequacy of portions served, weighing of all meal components offered to students and leftovers was performed d...

The purpose of this study was to design and develop a low cost mobile fish vending unit in urban/municipality areas with proper waste disposal. The prototype model was designed and fabricated using locally available materials at a cost of Rs.52780/-. The main feature of this prototype is that its100 and 70 L insulated chilled crates; utility box; Cutting and processing area; storage of water an...

The transition from aquatic to aerial respiration is associated with dramatic physiological changes in relation to gas exchange, ion regulation, acid-base balance and nitrogenous waste excretion. Arapaima gigas is one of the most obligate extant air-breathing fishes, representing a remarkable model system to investigate (1) how the transition from aquatic to aerial respiration affects gill desi...

There has been a paradigm shift towards reclamation of wastewater from high cost to low cost effective technology for treatment of sewage and resource utilization for economy driven activities.Under appropriate conditions, sewage fed fisheries would reduce the cost of fish production by utilizing the sewage induced natural plankton and become cost effective because of savings through chemical f...

Mercury Levels Lower in Great Lakes, but Still High Although mercury concentrations have decreased about 20% in fish, fish-eating birds, and inland lake sediments across the Great Lakes region in recent decades, levels in top predator fish and wildlife are still dangerously high, and in some places concentrations in some fish and wildlife may now be increasing, according to a new report. Levels...

The experiment was conducted on forty five broiler chickens at 4 weeks of age, for a period of threeweeks, to assess the effect of complete replacement of fish meal with processed fish wastes (fish waste acidsilage and surimi waste powder) on the blood protein, lipid and antioxidant status in broiler chicken, eventhough an earlier study indicated that this replacement induced normal growth rate...

This article study aims to explain the use of fishbone waste in its processed form on daily food product, analyze an extent it’s strength and potential Indonesia identify usage. The method used this is a qualitative descriptive using secondary data sources. research done by reviewing analyzing various literature correlated fish bone From associated data, discovered that mainly as calcium source...
