ABSTRACT Kudoa thyrsites is a myxosporean parasite that infects the skeletal muscle of various teleost fish species globally. Severe infections lead to ‘soft flesh’ in fish fillets, resulting in food spoilage and subsequent discard. While K. thyrsites has previously been identified in migratory Atlantic mackerel in the northern Northeast Atlantic Ocean,

Estimated Dietary Intake of Trace Metals from Swordfish Consumption: A Human Health Problem
Trace element (Hg, Pb, Cd, Zn, Cu, Ni, and Cr) occurrence was determined in the muscle tissue of swordfish collected in the Mediterranean Sea to assess whether the intakes complied with the recommended levels for essential metals and permissible levels ...

Evaluation of the heavy metals (mercury, lead, and cadmium) contamination of sardine (Sardina pilchardus) and swordfish (Xiphias gladius) fished in three Algerian coasts [PDF]
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb) levels in 70 samples of sardine (Sardina pilchardus) and 30 samples of swordfish (Xiphias gladius) fished in the Algerian coasts.

Temperature, Sea Ice, Depth, and Traits Drive Fish Distributions in the Barents Sea
ABSTRACT Aim Marine species are increasingly impacted by climate change, forcing them to adapt or redistribute to remain within their environmental niches. How the combined effects of environmental gradients and species traits influence the distribution of species with distinct biogeographic affinities remains poorly understood.

Responsiveness to price changes for major aquaculture products in U.S. retail markets
Abstract Consumer preferences, purchasing behavior, and demand for seafood evolve over time. Measuring and understanding the effects of price changes on demand responses are critical to the design of effective marketing strategies for aquaculture producers.

Reproductive dynamics of swordfish (
Batch fecundity and relative fecundity of swordfish (Xiphias gladius) in the southwestern Indian Ocean were estimated from seven gravid swordfish females (size range 127–225 cm lower jaw-to-fork length, LJFL) with unovulated, hydrated oocytes collected ...

This review synthesises knowledge on killer whales across the Indo‐Pacific through the integration of published studies and collaboration. It shows that variation in killer whale occurrence, diet, and fisheries interactions is shaped by environmental heterogeneity and uneven research effort and highlights knowledge gaps with implications for ...

Mercury and methylmercury bioaccessibility in swordfish
Concentrations of mercury (Hg) in swordfish (Xiphias gladius) present a food safety problem for many countries. This study analyses total Hg (t-Hg) concentrations in 27 samples of swordfish marketed in Spain in 2005 and in their bioaccessible fractions (soluble concentration in gastrointestinal medium), obtained after applying an in vitro digestion ...
