The present study attempts to identify some of the differences between skull bones two species Cyprinus carpio and Carassius carassius, which belong Cyprinidae family. is a taxonomic diagnostic are considered local fish abundant in Iraqi aquatic environment

Microbial quality of Labeo rohita, Cyprinus carpio and Clarias batrachus collected from the markets Kathmandu valley was evaluated. 9 freshwater fish (skin, gills, intestine) were sampled analyzed for Total Plate Count (TPC), Coliform (TCC) Fecal (TFCC). The average TPC ranged 4.1 x 107 to 1.02 108 cfu/gm, with highest count in C. lowest carpio, whereas organ wise load intestine 1.3 cfu/gm skin...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the content of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in muscle tissues of fish, i.e. carp (Cyprinus carpio, L.), bream (Abramis brama, L.) and pike perch (Stizostedion lucioperca, L.) from the middle Nové Mlýny reservoir and compare our results with previous corresponding studies. Samples were analysed by gas chroma...

Some bacteria can produce extracellular bacterial cellulose (BC). This polysaccharide is chemically identical to cellulose produced by plants but has no associated lignin and hemicelluloses. The unique mechanical properties, chemical stability and purity allow BC to be exploited for a range of biomedical applications. However, medium costs limit commercial BC production. The suitability of usin...
