First Report of Nephrocalcinosis in Aquacultured Brazilian Sardine (Sardinella brasiliensis Steindachner, 1879). [PDF]
ABSTRACT While nephrocalcinosis (kidney stones) is uncommon in wild teleost fish, various environmental and nutritional factors could lead to its occurrence in aquacultured fish. This study presents the first documented case of kidney stones in aquacultured Brazilian sardine (Sardinella brasiliensis). During necropsy, eighteen hard, white kidney stones

Histamine in Brazilian Foods: A Comprehensive Review of Occurrence and Risk Assessment for Intoxication and Intolerance. [PDF]
Even though histamine plays an important role in human health, it has been associated with food intoxication and intolerance episodes. The most relevant, current state of knowledge regarding histamine's biochemical and health aspects is provided. Histamine levels are provided for 17 food groups, including 335 food types and 11,437 samples, allowing ...

Geometric Analysis of Luciobarbus barbulus (Heckel 1847) Otoliths With Body Shape. [PDF]
Otolith shape analysis is an effective tool for deciphering the population structure of small pelagic species. It has also been determined that there is no difference between otolith‐fish shape because otolith biomineralization is affected by many factors.

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

The low-field NMR studies the change in cellular water in tilapia fillet tissue during different drying conditions. [PDF]
With the progress of drying, the surface and core temperature of the tilapia fillets continues to rise which leads to the decline of free water content, in addition, it was found that the free water is the highest when cell membranes started to rupture by the low‐field nuclear magnetic resonance technique.

Re-evaluation of certain aspects of the EFSA Scientific Opinion of April 2010 on risk assessment of parasites in fishery products, based on new scientific data. Part 2. [PDF]
Abstract The objective of this opinion was to determine if any wild caught fish species, originating from specific fishing grounds and consumed in the EU/EFTA could be considered free of zoonotic parasites. In this Opinion the term ‘fishery products’ only refers to fresh finfish.

A 50‐day feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of feeding rates (FRs) on the growth, feed utilisation, and body composition of Brachymystax lenok. Juveniles of B. lenok (initial body weight of 7.6 ± 0.2 g) were fed a commercial diet at the different FRs of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5% of their body weight. The results indicated that weight gain (

Abstract Aim Understanding patterns and drivers of biodiversity are essential towards developing effective conservation strategies for shallow marine habitats broadly. However, little is known about the natural and anthropogenic factors that structure fish biodiversity of sandy beaches, one of the largest and most socio‐economically valuable nearshore ...

Quality attributes and water mobility of giant salamander jerkies (GSJs) during roasting process (160°C, for 0, 20, 40, 60, and 80 min) were investigated. The results showed that a∗, b∗ values and shear force increased of GSJs roasting from 20 to 80 min, while L∗, yield, and moisture content decreased significantly (p < 0.05). Sensory assessment showed

How animals collaborate: Underlying proximate mechanisms
A range of underlying mechanisms contribute to collaboration across the animal kingdom. Abstract Collaboration or social interactions in which two or more individuals coordinate their behavior to produce outcomes from which both individuals benefit are common in nature.
