Shrimp trawling fishery in the Gulf of California captures a wide variety of non-target species of fish, crustaceans, and mollusks that are relatively unknown. The Pacific flagfin mojarra Eucinostomus currani is a frequently found species in these catches, nevertheless, nothing is currently known about its population dynamics. To contribute to the knowledge on this fish species, we studied the ...

The shrimp fishery is the most economically important fishery in Mexico. The trawler-based portion of this fishery results in high rates of by-catch. This study quantifies and describes the biodiversity of by-catch associated with trawling in the Bahía de Kino region of Sonora, Mexico. Data were collected from 55 trawls, on six boats, over 14 nights, during November of 2003, 2004, 2006-2009. By...

Euphorbiaceae is a family of plant spread in all parts of the world except very cold regions. The genus Euphorbia consists of over eighty-two species grown wildly in Iran. Some of Euphorbia species are used in the treatment cancer and tumors in different countries. The genus Euphorbia has been the source of a large number of biological active compounds. In this study petroleum ether, ether, eth...

The aim of this study was to investigate the estimation and management fish shrimp wastes in Bushehr province. Two-part questionnaire including demographic information, waste disposal method were completed for 91 stores 636 households. quantity generated estimated based on 3 different Scenarios. In addition, generation factor calculated common species. Results showed equal 32.67 42%, respective...

 Background: The manufacturing of frozen shrimp is an important industry for the economy of Thailand. The objective of this study was to use Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to determine the freshness quality, including Total Volatile Basic Nitrogen (TVB-N) and Water Holding Capacity (WHC) of white shrimp (whole and chopped shrimp) and phosphate residues of shrimp. Methods: Sixty white shrimp ...

Background Food allergy is apparently increasing and it is estimated that 3–4% of adults have food allergy. Shrimp is one of the most common causatives in seafood allergy. Patients with shrimp allergy may exhibit life threatening anaphylactic reactions. Tropomyosin is a known important allergen in shrimp. The IgE-binding epitope in shrimp tropomyosin, cross-reacts with other allergenic inverteb...

A comparative study regarding prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of Vibrio species in the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon Fabricius) culture environment as well as market samples were analyzed. Total Vibrio counts were found to range up to 2.5 × 10 cfu/gm and 60 cfu/gm in shrimp and Gher water samples, respectively. Results revealed that the total vibrio count were found to be high...

Recent investigations suggest that marine biodiversity may be much higher than earlier estimates, and an important hidden source of diversity in marine systems is the phenomenon of cryptic species complexes. Such complexes are informative models for research into the evolutionary processes that govern species compositions of marine fauna. The snapping shrimp genera Alpheus and Synalpheus are kn...

Trophic studies of summer flounder Paralichthys dentatus have relied on traditional stomach content analyses to infer contributions of prey to species productivity. We applied both stable isotope and stomach content analyses to identify prey groups that are responsible for summer flounder productivity in lower Chesapeake Bay and to explore ontogenetic patterns in prey utilization. Summer flound...

In-depth studies on the effect of size and period in diet hollow-snout grenadier Coelorinchus caelorhincus Mediterranean Sea are scant incomplete. We obtained 75 specimens this species from discard deep trawl fishing slope central Tyrrhenian Sea. As corollary data, we estimated length–weight relationship, frequency distribution, composition sexual maturity stages sampled individuals. deepened s...
