Hydrolysis of insoluble fish protein residue from whitemouth croaker (Micropogonias furnieri) by fungi [PDF]

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2014
A significant amount of insoluble fibrous protein, in the form of feather, hair, scales, skin and others are available as co-products of agro industrial processing. These wastes are rich in keratin and collagen.

Hidrolisado protéico de pescado obtido por vias química e enzimática a partir de corvina (Micropogonias furnieri) Fish protein hydrolyzed obtained by chemical and enzymatic processes from corvina (Micropogonias furnieri)

Química Nova, 2009
The fish proteins has the advantage of a high sensibility to the hydrolysis and also a balanced composition in aminoacids. The production of protein hydrolyzed from by-products of fish process industry has been receiving more attention on the last years.

Steroid metabolism in vitro during final oocyte maturation in white croaker Micropogonias furnieri (Pisces: Scianidae) [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2004
Final oocyte maturation (FOM) is a process involving a complex set of genetical, biochemical, and morphological mechanisms. FOM involves the shift of a post-vitellogenic follicle to a pre-ovulated oocyte, which is necessary for fertilization by ...

Shearing Tooth Morphology May Allow Sharks to Access Higher Trophic Levels at Smaller Sizes. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Predator morphology imposes limitations on prey selection due to biomechanical constraints, making some prey functionally inaccessible and thereby constraining predator trophic niches. We assessed how two key components of trophic morphology—tooth shape and body size—affect prey selectivity and trophic niche in two sympatric sharks with contrasting ...

Molecular analyses of carangid fish diets reveal inter-predation, dietary overlap, and the importance of early life stages in trophic ecology. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Metabarcoding of fish stomach contents is a modern approach that can help resolve marine food webs and assist in management of fisheries. Analysis of the diet of seven carangid fish species in the southwest Atlantic using this technique identified principal links that can influence the pelagic sardine fisheries. The contribution of early life stages of

Elaboração de empanado a partir da corvina (Micropogonias furnieri) [PDF]

Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos, 2007
This study involved the preparation of breaded whitemouth croaker (Micropogonias furnieri). The fish were measured and weighed, their freshness was evaluated based on pH and total volatile bases (TVB), and their proximal composition was analyzed. The average size and weight were 28.0 cm and 268.3 g, respectively. The specimens’ pH and concentrations of

Sex‐specific difference in agonistic sounds depends on size of sonic organs in fishes: Testing the hypothesis in the croaking gourami (Labyrinth fishes)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 339, Issue 9, Page 838-852, November 1, 2023., 2023
In most vocal fish species females possess smaller sound‐generating organs than males. Not‐pronounced sexual dimorphism in pectoral fin sonic tendons in the croaking gourami results in sex‐specific differences in one out of eight sound characteristic (sound pressure level) in similar‐sized sexes.

Ectotherm mitochondrial economy and responses to global warming

Acta Physiologica, Volume 237, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Temperature is a key abiotic factor affecting ecology, biogeography, and evolution of species. Alterations of energy metabolism play an important role in adaptations and plastic responses to temperature shifts on different time scales. Mitochondrial metabolism affects cellular bioenergetics and redox balance making these organelles an ...

Length‐Weight Relationships and Relative Condition Factor of 53 Species of Shallow‐Water Fish in the Colombian Caribbean Sea

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Length‐weight relationships (LWR) were described for 53 species of shallow‐water fish caught with bottom trawls in a depth range between 7.3 and 108.1 m during September 2013 in the Colombian Caribbean Sea (fishing area 31 of the FAO). A linear regression was performed using the logarithmically transformed data to calculate a and b coefficients and ...
