estimation of fillet biochemical composition and processing yield is primary needs for fish processing. present study was aimed to investigate for determining fillet biochemical composition and processing yield of bighead (hypophthalmichthys nobilis) for nutritional labeling and economical estimation of its products by regression equations. for this purpose 55 specimen of bighead were applied i...

This study was performed to compare the performance of Sanita-Kun dry medium culture plate with those of traditional culture medium and Petrifilm dry medium culture plate for the enumeration of the mesophilic aerobic bacteria in milk, ice cream, ham, and codfish fillet. Mesophilic aerobic bacteria were comparatively evaluated in milk, ice cream, ham, and codfish fillet using Sanita-Kun aerobic ...

Abstract Due to the complexity of deterioration process seafood products, relying on one indicator is not adequate determine quality such products. Usually, shelf-life was estimated based various indicators complicating decision-making process. Decision Support Systems are considered as a good solution. The current study aims establish simple and novel fuzzy model combination knowledge- data-dr...

Lead (Pb) and other metals can accumulate in northern hog sucker (Hypentelium nigricans) and other suckers (Catostomidae), which are harvested in large numbers from Ozark streams by recreational fishers. Suckers are also important in the diets of piscivorous wildlife and fishes. Suckers from streams contaminated by historic Pb–zinc (Zn) mining in southeastern Missouri are presently identified i...

This study examined English pronunciation by Cantonese speakers in Hong Kong with the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) to see how the application of IPA can be used in language education. Twenty university students, divided into two groups, one with the IPA training and the other without the training, were asked to read 30 English words (5 controls) that contain challenging sounds (e.g., l...

 to provide an objective phonetic description of vowels and diphthongs of Indian English in acoustic terms and  to provide acoustic evidence of sound change in English in language contact situation.  This of course would have implications in ESL in India, as knowledge about the vowel space and vowel qualities produced by speakers in India can help us in teaching spoken English to the student...

Phase-feeding (PF) has been effective in maintaining broiler growth while reducing production cost, but the effect on different broiler strains grown in a small-bird production scenario has not been assessed. The objective of this study was to evaluate 3 commercial broiler strains typically used in a small-bird production scenario to assess the effect of various debone times and PF on yield and...

The effects of compressor aerodynamic parameters, such as pitch-chord ratio, aspect ratio, and fillet, on the cascade performance have been studied in this paper. Slot configuration at the root of the blade has been proved to be an efficient passive control method for the corner separation control in compressor cascade. The combined effects of the pitch-chord ratio, aspect ratio, and blade fill...

We have demonstrated the antilisterial activity of generally recognized as safe (GRAS) bacteriophage LISTEX P100 (phage P100) on the surface of raw salmon fillet tissue against Listeria monocytogenes serotypes 1/2a and 4b. In a broth model system, phage P100 completely inhibited L. monocytogenes growth at 4 degrees Celsius for 12 days, at 10 degrees Celsius for 8 days, and at 30 degrees Celsius...

Knowledge of the health impact of consuming heat-treated versus raw fish fillet is limited. To investigate effects of baked or raw salmon fillet intake on lipids and n-3 PUFAs in serum and tissues, obese Zucker fa/fa rats were fed diets containing 25% of protein from baked or raw salmon fillet and 75% of protein from casein, or casein as the sole protein source (control group) for four weeks. S...
