Abstract Microplastics are contaminants of emerging concern; they ingested by marine biota. About a quarter global fish landings is used to produce fishmeal for animal and aquaculture feed. To provide knowledge foundation this matrix we reviewed the existing literature studies microplastics in fishmeal-relevant species. 55% were deemed unsuitable due focus on large (> 1 mm), lack of, or limi...

Taurine has been demonstrated to be a conditionally indispensable nutrient for several carnivorous fish species. Currently, trout feeds contain reduced levels of fishmeal which had been the primary source of dietary taurine. The reduction of fishmeal in the diet, and thus dietary taurine, may limit growth. A 12-week feeding trial was conducted using a factorial treatment design with taurine sup...

Baylisascaris procyonis is a common gastrointestinal parasite of raccoons (Procyon lotor) and is a zoonotic helminth with the potential to cause severe or fatal infection. Raccoons thrive in human-dominated landscapes, and the fecal-oral transmission pathway and lack of effective treatment make B. procyonis a serious threat to public health. The distribution of medicinal baits has emerged as a ...

BACKGROUND Allergic reactions to food can be produced by contaminants that induce sensitization. Among these, Anisakis simplex can cause seafood infestation, and allergic symptoms (urticaria-angioedema, anaphylaxis, and asthma) can follow the eating or handling of affected fish. Although seafood is the principal source of human infections by this parasite, we have found allergic symptoms in 8 p...

To explore the effect of storage conditions on freshness fishmeal, acid value (AV), volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), and pH were used as evaluation indexes to changes in during influence mold count these indexes. The effects temperature relative humidity (RH) AV, VBN, value, studied using a single-factor test, grey relation analysis (GRA) was assess association between appropriate determined tech...
