Heart structure in the Amazonian teleost Arapaima gigas (Osteoglossiformes, Arapaimidae) [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Anatomy, 2018
AbstractThe fish heart ventricle has varied morphology and may have a specific morpho‐functional design in species adapted to extreme environmental conditions. In general, the Amazonian ichthyofauna undergoes constant variations in water temperature, pH and oxygen saturation, which makes these species useful for investigations of cardiac morphology ...

Combined osmotic dehydration and drying process of pirarucu (Arapaima gigas) fillets. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Food Sci Technol, 2017
The osmotic dehydration (OD) and complementary drying of pirarucu (Arapaima gigas) fillets were studied. Pieces of the dorsal portion of pirarucu (60 mm × 20 mm × 10 mm) underwent OD in a binary solution (NaCl-water) with the application of vacuum pulse following a central rotatable composite design.
