Yield optimization, physicochemical characterizations, and antioxidant properties of food grade agar from Gracilaria tenuistipitata of Cox's Bazar coast, Bangladesh

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 2852-2863, June 2023., 2023
Extraction variables affect agar yield in both water‐ and NaOH‐pretreated groups. Among them, 2% NaOH pretreatment of Gracilaria tenuistipitata results cost‐effective agar yield with food grade quality having improved physicochemical characteristics. Abstract The present study was aimed at investigating the optimization of extraction variables for food

Use of different seaweeds as shelter in nursing mud crab, Scylla paramamosain: Effects on water quality, survival, and growth of crab

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 485-499, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Mud crabs (Scylla spp.) are considered luxury seafood and high market value; hence, mud crab farming is well known in Southeast Asia. However, the prevalence of cannibalistic behavior in crabs thus requires shelter in the culture system to reduce conspecific cannibalism and enhance the survival of crabs.

Safety and efficacy of a feed additive consisting of agar for pets and non‐food‐producing animals (Hispanagar)

EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of agar as a feed additive for pets and non‐food‐producing animals. Owing the lack of information, the FEEDAP Panel is not in the position to conclude on the safety of agar for pets and other non‐food‐producing animals ...

Pragmatic Applications and Universality of DNA Barcoding for Substantial Organisms at Species Level: A Review to Explore a Way Forward

BioMed Research International, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
DNA barcodes are regarded as hereditary succession codes that serve as a recognition marker to address several queries relating to the identification, classification, community ecology, and evolution of certain functional traits in organisms. The mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase 1 (CO1) gene as a DNA barcode is highly efficient for discriminating ...
