Tilapia

Tilapia are a group of cichlid fish endemic to tropical freshwater in Africa, Jordan and Israel, that are extremely nutritious and in high global demand. They are a popular species to farm because of their relative ease of culture, their tolerance to relatively high stocking densities, rapid growth and palatability. As a thorough exploration of tilapia

Bioconcentration of atrazine in the banded tilapia, Tilapia sparrmanii

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Comparative Pharmacology, 1992
1. The bioconcentration of atrazine was determined in the liver, muscle, heart, gonads and brain of Tilapia sparrmanii exposed to high concentrations of atrazine. 2. The highest concentrations were recorded in the ovaries (50.6 micrograms/g) and in the liver (40.1 +/- 5.5 micrograms/g). This may be attributed to the higher lipid content of these organs,

Purification and Localization of Nitric Oxide Synthases from Hybrid Tilapia (Nile Tilapia × Mozambique Tilapia)

Journal of Aquatic Animal Health, 2007
Abstract The aims of this study were to purify and localize the nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) from hybrid tilapia (Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus × Mozambique tilapia O. mossambicus). The purification procedures involved affinity chromatography with a 2′, 5′-ADP-agarose 4B column and ion exchange with a diethylaminoethanol Bio-Gel A ...

Complete mitochondrial genome of Zebra tilapia, Tilapia buttikoferi

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
We determined the complete mitochondrial genome of Tilapia buttikoferi, which was 16,577 bp in length with an A + T content of 53.0%, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs and a complete control region. The gene arrangement was similar to that of typical fishes.

Comparative transcriptomes reveal different tolerance mechanisms to Streptococcus agalactiae in hybrid tilapia, nile tilapia, and blue tilapia

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2023
Tilapia is one of the most economically important freshwater fish farmed in China. Streptococcosis outbreaks have been extensively documented in farmed tilapia species. Hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus ♀ × O. aureus ♂) exhibit greater disease resistance than Nile tilapia (O. niloticus) and blue tilapia (O. aureus). However, the molecular mechanism

Exploiting Transgenic Tilapia and the Tilapia Genome

2003
The future importance of aquaculture is clearly very great because of the increased demand for fish and the decline of world capture fisheries. Tilapia fish are widely cultured in both the developed and developing world countries, and any methods for improving tilapia performance in aquaculture are of significance.

Stability of calcium-autolyzed calpain II from tilapia muscle (Tilapia nilotica X Tilapia aurea)

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 1992
The inactivation of calpain II (EC 3.4.22.17) from tilapia muscle was investigated. The thermal stability was enhanced by decreasing the water activity with the addition of sucrose at temperatures below 67.8 o C (isokinetic temperature). Addition of 30% sucrose caused the increase of the transition temperature and of the activation energy.

Experimental infection of Tilapia Lake Virus (TiLV) in Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) and red tilapia ( Oreochromis spp.)

Veterinary Microbiology, 2017
Since 2015, a novel orthomyxo-like virus, tilapia lake virus (TiLV) has been associated with outbreaks of disease and massive mortality of cultured Nile and red tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus and Oreochromis spp., respectively) in Thailand. In this study, TiLV was isolated from field samples and propagated in the permissive E-11 cell line, with ...

Antibacterial activity of tilapia Tilapia hornorum against Vibrio harveyi

Aquaculture, 2004
Abstract Disease due to luminous Vibrio has been a major problem of the shrimp industry. Different technologies have been introduced to control the disease. One of the techniques reported to work against luminous bacteria in the Philippines is the green water culture system (or finfish–shrimp integrated culture system). A green water culture system

Purification and some properties of calpain II from tilapia muscle (Tilapia nilotica .times. Tilapia aurea)

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 1991
Calpain II, calcium actived neutral proteinase was purified by hydrophobic chromatography and subtrate affinity chromatography. Electrophoretic analysis and inhibitor specificity studies indicated that the calpain was a monomer. The molecular weight and cinetic properties was determined.
