nowadays, using natural preservatives than synthetic ones is increasing. the present study was aimed to compare the effect of thyme (zataria multiflora boiss), onion (allium cepa) and ziziphora clinopodioides extracts on shelf-life extending of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) salted, vacuum packaged fillet, kept at 4°c. for this purpose fish filets were kept in 4 treatment: salted in brine ...

The molecular profiles of perchloric acid solutions extracted from the flesh of Sparus aurata fish specimens, produced according to different aquaculture systems, have been investigated. The (1)H-NMR spectra of aqueous extracts are indicative of differences in the metabolite content of fish reared under different conditions that are already distinguishable at their capture, and substantially ma...

A method using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) was developed for the determination of 17alpha-ethynylestradiol in fish liver; a second method using LC/MS was developed for the determination of carbamazepine, diazepam, simvastatin, and oxybenzone in fish liver. The fish liver samples were extracted and cleaned up by using liquid-liquid extraction and solid-phase extract...

A new and easy fast-screening test (the Ad-DR (adenoviral vector-dioxin response) bioassay) for dioxins in biological samples from highly dioxin-contaminated areas was developed. The aryl-hydrocarbon-receptor (AhR) reporter system was utilized to transport a dioxin-responsive-element (DRE) via an adenovirus vector into rat hepatoma (H4IIE) cells before each experiment; these DRE-H4IIE cells wer...

Parvalbumin is a pan-allergen in fish and frog that triggers IgE-mediated reactions in fish-allergic individuals. Previous studies demonstrated that antibodies raised against fish and frog parvalbumins displayed varying specificity for different fish species, and thus the applicability of these antibodies for potential use in immunoassays to detect fish residues were limited. We aimed to determ...

The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of beta glucan, the plant extract, Vitabio A, and the plant extract with probiotic Lactobacillus spp. (Vitabio B) on the growth, histology and immune response of Labeo rohita (Rohu), reared for 120 days in a flow through system. Fish with an average body weight of 264±2.65g were stocked in cemented tanks at 10 fish/replicate. Four iso-nitroge...

our aim in this study was to identify and characterize allergic proteins in cooked wolf herring fish. we heated the crude extract alternatively at 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100°c for one hour and results were compared by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (sds-page). also, proteins were immunoblotted with fish-sensitive patients’ sera. the major allergenic proteins were ide...

background: enhancement of the immune system seems to be the most promising method of preventing fish diseases and increasing growth rate. objectives: the purpose of the present study was to investigate the influence of dietary administration of zataria multiflora boiss and menthapulegium l extracts on phagocytosis, lysozyme, respiratory burst and total white and red blood cells (wbc/rbc) of ra...

Injections of bovine parathyroid hormone (PTH 1-34) and ho­ mogenates of corpuscles of Stannius produce hypocalcemia in male killifish and tilapia adapted to calcium-deficient seawater or fresh water, respectively. In fish from water with normal calcium concentrations no effects are noticea­ ble. These results suggest similarity in bioactivity between PTH, the hypercalcemic hormone of terrestri...

molluscicidal activity of different organic solvent extracts of latex of euphorbia pulcherima and euphorbia hirta (family-euphorbiaceae) against two freshwater harmful snails lymnaea acuminata and indoplanorbis exustus has been reported. both the snails are the intermediate hosts of fasciola hepatica and fasciola gigantica, which cause endemic fascioliasis in cattle and livestock of eastern par...
