Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 5, Page 414-424, October 2022., 2022 Total ammonia and nitrite combined generated antagonism. Less severe damage occurred on gills exposed to ammonia and nitrite. High THC are found in the highest concentrations of the nitrogen compounds. Abstract The present study evaluated the isolated and combined effect of total ammonia and nitrite on Macrobrachium amazonicum adults through the median

Effects of ammonia stress in the Amazon river shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum (Decapoda, Palaemonidae) [PDF]
Aquatic Toxicology, 2016 We evaluate the effects of total ammonia nitrogen-N (TAN) exposure for 72h on (Na(+),K(+))- and V(H(+))-ATPase activities and on their subunit expressions in gills of the diadromous freshwater shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum. Specific (Na(+),K(+))- and V(H(+))-ATPase activities increased roughly 1.5- to 2-fold, respectively, after exposure to 2.0mmolL(-

Comparative evaluation of the biofloc system versus the recirculation system with Macrobrachium amazonicum / Avaliação comparativa do sistema bioflocos versus o sistema de recirculação com Macrobrachium amazonicum [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Development, 2021 The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of the biofloc system versus the recirculation system using the native Amazonian freshwater shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum (Heller, 1862) as a cultivation organism. In this initial evaluation, the water quality parameters of each system were measured and the survival rate in the biofloc system ...
