Development of Quality Index Method (QIM) scheme for Acoupa weakfish (Cynoscion acoupa)
Abstract A Quality Index Method (QIM) scheme for gutted and iced Acoupa weakfish ( Cynoscion acoupa ) was developed and its efficiency for freshness evaluation was compared with instrumental colour analysis, microbial and chemical methods. The QIM scheme comprises sensory evaluation of 14 parameters, reaching a total sum of 23 demerit points.

Changes in fishing production in the northern Brazil [PDF]
This study analyzed temporal changes in fishery production along the northern coast of Brazil to assess evidence of fishing down marine food webs. Landings data from Pará State between 1997 and 2007 were used to evaluate variations in catch composition ...

Mercury (Hg) concentration in fish commercialized in the São Luís fish market (MA) and potential exposure of consumers [PDF]
Fish consumption is the main path of human exposure to Hg and may represent a risk to public health, even with low Hg concentrations in fish, if consumption rates are high.

ABSTRACT Estuarine lagoons provide nursery habitats for marine fishes; however, small lagoons (< 1 km2) have been overlooked. To evaluate the nursery function of small estuarine lagoons (SELs) for temperate marine fish, this study used seining on the coast of the northwestern Pacific (Kyushu, temperate Japan) during the juvenile seasons (winter and ...

ABSTRACT Fish maw, the dried swim bladder of teleost fish, is consumed throughout much of East and Southeast Asia. The serving of maw is seen as an indicator of wealth, prestige, and status in Chinese culture. While Hong Kong and mainland China are considered major fish maw importers, its trade in these countries remains largely understudied. This lack

Assessing Fish Community Structure and Diversity Across Environmental Gradients in a Tropical Bay
ABSTRACT Understanding the relationship between species distribution and the environment across spatial gradients is crucial for biodiversity evaluation. We surveyed fish populations in a tropical bay, covering a spatial gradient from the outer zone with favorable marine conditions to the inner zone affected by human activities.

Synergies between price and life history enhance extinction risk in open‐access fisheries
Abstract There have been few documented extinctions of fished species, but many bioeconomic models predict that open‐access incentives make extinction possible. Open‐access multi‐species fisheries can cause species' extinction if other, faster‐growing species maintain profits at fatal effort levels.

DNA barcoding for the identification of swim bladders: An approach to international trade monitoring
The rapidly expanding global trade in fish maw (dried swim bladders) necessitates urgent forensic monitoring, as this highly processed commodity is morphologically unidentifiable, directly facilitating the illicit inclusion of vulnerable species in the ...
