Microencapsulated diets to improve bivalve shellfish aquaculture
Aquaculture is the fastest growing food sector and feeds over 3 billion people. Bivalve shellfish aquaculture makes up 25% of global aquaculture production and is worth annually US$19 billion, but continued growth is currently limited by suboptimal diets and limited tools for disease control. New advances in microencapsulation technology could provide an effective way to overcome these biologic...
متن کاملTesting of bivalve shellfish samples
We report the first detection of tetrodotoxins (TTX) in European bivalve shellfish. We demonstrate that TTX is present within the temperate waters of the United Kingdom, along the English Channel, and can accumulate in filter-feeding molluscs. The toxin is heat-stable and thus it cannot be eliminated during cooking. While quantified concentrations were low in comparison to published minimum let...
متن کاملRe-emergence of Vibrio tubiashii in bivalve shellfish aquaculture: severity, environmental drivers, geographic extent and management.
During 2006 and 2007, we documented the re-emergence of severe episodes of vibriosis caused by Vibrio tubiashii in shellfish hatcheries on the west coast of North America. Lost larval and juvenile production included 3 previously undescribed hosts, Pacific (Crassostrea gigas) and Kumamoto (C. sikamea) oysters and geoduck clams Panope abrupta, with a 2007 decline in larval oyster production of a...
متن کاملEcosystem Level Effects of Marine Bivalve Aquaculture 51 ECOSYSTEM LEVEL EFFECTS OF MARINE BIVALVE AQUACULTURE
This paper reviews the present state of knowledge on environmental issues related to bivalve aquaculture, with emphasis on suspended mussel culture. Material reviewed includes Canadian and international studies on the role of wild and cultured bivalve populations in controlling ecosystem-level dynamics. The focus is on identifying potential changes in ecosystem processes (material and energy fl...
متن کاملCarrying Capacity for Shellfish Aquaculture with Reference to Mussel Aquaculture in Malpeque Bay, Prince
In Prince Edward Island (PEI), shellfish (bivalves comprised of mussel and oyster) aquaculture production occurs in sheltered, generally shallow bays. The productive capacity of a bay for shellfish aquaculture is determined by many factors including the hydrodynamics of the bay and input of nutrients. There is considered to be a limit to the production (biomass) that can be extracted from an ar...
