Fish aquaculture for commodity production, fisheries enhancement and conservation is expanding rapidly, with many cultured species undergoing inadvertent or controlled domestication. Cultured fish are frequently released, accidentally and deliberately, into natural environments where they may survive well and impact on wild fish populations through ecological, genetic, and technical interaction...

• United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UN, 1982 (known as UNCLOS)), which includes a call for a maximum sustainable yield (MSY) approach to managing fisheries; • United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UN, 1992a (known as UNCED)), including Chapter 17 of Agenda 21 which highlights a precautionary approach; • United Nations Straddling Fish Stocks Agreement of 1995 (...

Following a brief presentation of marine catch trends in Southeast Asia, some biological peculiarities of the stocks upon which these fisheries rely are discussed. Two empirical loglinear models are presented allowing rough estimation of potential yield of small pelagic fishes fish from primary production, and of demersal fish from mean water depth and primary production. These models are appli...

Goldfish (Carassius auratus) were reared in two recirculating systems initially under the same settings and UV conditions for period of 100 days. Halfway through the experiment, the supply of the UV irradiation in one the setting was discontinued. Several water quality parameters were monitored in both settings at the two different times. The results indicate that UV systems enhanced the growth...

–Sound management and protection of the Great Lakes Basin’s abundant freshwater resources requires the ability to predict local habitat conditions and fish communities across regional spatial scales. In response to concerns over increased use and potential diversion of its plentiful freshwater resources, the State of Michigan enacted legislation in 2006 that required creation of an integrated a...

PURPOSE To compare translocation rate using either M-FISH or FISH-3 in two patients treated for head and neck cancer, with a view to retrospective dosimetry. MATERIALS AND METHODS Translocation analysis was performed on peripheral blood lymphocyte cultures from blood samples taken at different times during the radiotherapy (0 Gy, 12 Gy and 50 Gy) and a few months after the end of the treatmen...

This study investigates the kinetics of hydrolyzed collagen extraction from the scales of the croaker fish (Pseudotolitus elongatus) at temperature ranging from 60°C to 90°C. Extraction was carried out using hydrothermal treatment over a period of 8 hr, during which the mass of hydrolyzed collagen extracted was obtained every hour. The rate order of extraction was temperature-dependent within t...

an experiment was conducted on broiler chickens to study the effects of conjugated linoleic acid (cla), fish oil, both at 7% of the diet, or their mixtures at 3.5% of the diet, on the performance, carcass traits and intestinal morphology of broiler chickens. the chicks fed with 7% fish oil or 7% cla diets, were found to have an inferior weight gain in grower and finisher phases, respectively. a...

This study examined the effect of different fat supplements on the antioxidants of cow’s milk. Thirty five Polish Holstein Friesian cows at 180±20 day of lactation and averaging 17.71±2.26 kg/d of milk were divided into five equal groups. There were five treatments groups: 300 g/d of fish oil, 500 g/d of Opal linseed, 500 g/d of Szafir linseed, 150 g/d of fish oil + 250 g/d of Opal linseed, 150...
