Chymotrypsin and general proteolytic activities in muscle of Engraulis encrasicolus and Engraulis anchoita during the ripening process

European Food Research and Technology, 2000
During fish ripening, biochemical changes occur that give rise to the organoleptic properties characteristic of the product. Enzymes play a key role in this ripening process, although it is not known exactly which enzymes are involved. We investigated the effects of the gutting method (nobbing only, or nobbing and butterflying) and addition of ...

PHOTOREPAIR IN LARVAL ANCHOVY, ENGRAULIS MORDAX

Photochemistry and Photobiology, 1981
Abstract Photorepair of UV‐B lesions occurred in embryonic northern anchovy larvae. The photoreactive fluence rate required to fully activate photorepair mechanisms was less than 10% of that available from the sun on a clear day in March (33N). Even with UV–B enhancement from ozone depletion, sufficient photoreactive fluence exists in the sea to ensure

Microplastics in livers of European anchovies ( Engraulis encrasicolus , L.)

Environmental Pollution, 2017
Microplastics (MPs) are thought to be ingested by a wide range of marine organisms before being excreted. However, several studies in marine organisms from different taxa have shown that MPs and nanoplastics could be translocated in other organs. In this study, we investigated the presence of MPs in the livers of commercial zooplanktivorous fishes ...

The food of the larvae of the northern anchovy Engraulis mordax [PDF]

, 1959
ENGLISH: Hitherto the only investigation dealing with the food and feeding of the larvae of the northern anchovy, Engraulis mordax Girard, was that of Arthur (1956). His main consideration was, however, with the Pacific sardine, Sardinops caerulea (Girard), and his work on the anchovy can only be considered preliminary.

The follicular prolactin cells of the primitive teleost Engraulis japonica

Cell and Tissue Research, 1976
The elopiform teleost Engraulis japonica was used for a light and electron microscopical study of the follicle epithelium in the rostral pars distalis of the pituitary. In this species, which has one large follicle in the anterior hypophysis, there is no persistent orohypophysial duct in postmetamorphic stages. The apical pole of the prolactin cells is

Growth and larval behaviour of Engraulis japonica in captivity

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, 1988
ummary The Japanese anchovy Engraulis japonica H. was reared from egg to adult stage in order to determine the life cycle time course and the initial larval growth rate. The cultured brood stock spawned eggs spontaneously at smaller size than natural fish and this took less than one year.

The spawning habitat of the Peruvian anchovy, Engraulis ringens

Deep Sea Research Part A. Oceanographic Research Papers, 1980
Individual larvae of the anchovy Engraulis ringens appear to survive better off the northern coast of Peru during the austral winter season when a motile algal food supply is available. Concentrations of the dinoflagellate food of the first feeding anchovy larvae may be reduced less often by wind events in the north than in the south.

Morphology of the sense organs of anchovy Engraulis japonicus

Fisheries Science, 2006
The morphology of the lateral line system, the inner ear, the olfactory epithelium and the taste bud of the wild adult anchovy Engraulis japonicus was examined by photo microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Hematoxylin solution was injected into the lateral line canals to show the arrangement of the lateral line system.

Comparison of trypsin and chymotrypsin from the viscera of anchovy, Engraulis japonica

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1995
The molecular weights of trypsin and chymotrypsin purified from anchovy viscera were estimated to be 25.6 and 26.1 Kda, respectively, by SDS-PAGE. Both enzymes had their maximal activity at pH 9.0 and 45 degrees C for casein and at pH 8.0 and 45 degrees C for synthetic substrates.

Trophic structure and microbial activity in a spawning area of Engraulis encrasicolus

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2018
The abundance, biomass and size-structure of planktonic populations, and the microbial metabolic processes were studied in the Sicily Channel, one of the most important spawning areas in the Mediterranean for anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus), a pelagic species of commercial interest.
