The effects of habitat characteristics (mangrove creek, sandflat, mudflat and seagrass meadow) water salinity, temperature, and depth on the density, spatial distribution and size distribution of juveniles of five commercially important penaied shrimp species (Metapenaus monoceros, M. stebbingi, Fenneropenaeus indicus, Penaeus japonicus and P. semisulcatus) were investigated during a high shrim...

Speckled shrimp (Metapenaeus monoceros), is a commercially important prawn in the embayments and estuaries of the Mediterranean Sea. It is originally a Lessepsian species which had migrated from the Red Sea into the Mediterranean Sea through the Suez Canal. This study was carried out in the North-eastern Mediterranean Sea between November 2009 and October 2010 with monthly sampling of speckled ...

Different studies even on same shrimp species and heavy metals from locations may be inconsistent with each other. Because of their important a food safety risk, therefore, meta-analysis is required to evaluate the true risk level human consumption for these aquatic organisms. In this study, commercially two species, Penaeus semisulcatus (de Hann, 1844) Metapenaeus monoceros (Fabricius, 1798), ...

Contamination of the aquatic environment and living things with pollutants is increasing daily. Among these pollutants, heavy metals come to forefront regarding toxicological public health due their widespread use, toxicity, resistance degradation, as well accumulation biomagnification in food chain. The study aimed determine essential (Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Zn) non-essential (As, Al, Cd, Pb) met...

Fatty acids have been successfully used to trace the transfer of organic matter in coastal and estuarine food webs. To delineate these web connections, fatty acid profiles were analyzed in species of microbes (Azotobacter vinelandii, and Lactobacillus xylosus), prawns (Metapenaeus monoceros and Macrobrachium rosenbergii) and finfish (Mugil cephalus), that are associated with decomposing leaves ...
