Behavior of Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes in raw yellowfin tuna during refrigeration and frozen storage were studied. Growth of Salmonella was inhibited in tuna during refrigerated storage, while L. monocytogenes was able to multiply significantly during refrigerated storage. Populations of Salmonella in tuna were reduced by 1 to 2 log after 12 days of storage at 5-7 °C, regardless leve...

The movements of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus thynnus) have captured the interest of scientists and fishers since the time of Aristotle. This tuna is unique among bony fish for maintaining elevated body temperatures (21 degrees C above ambient) and attaining large size (up to 750 kg). We describe here the use of a pop-off satellite tag, for investigating the Atlantic-wide movements an...

This paper represents a review of different tagging activities carried out on bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. Except in Croatia where tagging has been done on captive specimens, all other tagging campaigns, performed within framework of joint European Tuna Tagging Programme, have been done on bluefin tuna released in the open sea. Besides the taggin...

The study aimed to evaluate the addition of banana blossom (12.5, 25, 37.5, and 50% w/w) on nutritional quality, histamine content, bacterial count, sensory characteristic in fish floss prepared from little tuna (Euthynnus affinis). crude protein essential amino acids, lipid, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) steadily decreased (p <0.05), while fibre, carbohydrate, ash components floss, inc...

Tag release and recapture data of bigeye (Thunnus obesus) and yellowfin tuna (T. albacares) from the Hawaii Tuna Tagging Project (HTTP) were analyzed with a bulk transfer model incorporating size-specific attri­ tion to infer population dynamics and transfer rates between various fishery components. For both species, the transfer rate estimates from the offshore handline fishery areas to the lo...

The stomach contents of 68 Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) landed in Port Hood and Canso, Nova Scotia, in 2010, were analyzed to characterize the diet of bluefin tuna at the two locations. Of the sampled fish, 54 stomachs had contents. Pelagic schooling fish such as herring (Clupea harengus) and mackerel (Scomber scombrus) dominated the diets in both regions. However, a number of rare s...

The TUNA Challenge was a set of three shared tasks at REG’08, all of which used data from the TUNA Corpus. The three tasks covered attribute selection for referring expressions (TUNA-AS), realisation (TUNA-R) and end-toend referring expression generation (TUNAREG). 8 teams submitted a total of 33 systems to the three tasks, with an additional submission to the Open Track. The evaluation used a ...

Abstract Malnutrition in children will affect their growth, causing a decrease study skills and immunity. Considering the issues, overcoming nutritional issues of babies toddlers by giving food supplements is mandatory. Innovations making basically from fish aim to increase number nutritions such as protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants which contribute development body organ functio...

Large-scale (100s km) distributions of tuna larvae (family Scombridae), particularly of the commercially important genera Thunnus and Katsuwonus, have been extensively investigated because of the need to identify spawning locations and the possibility of estimating spawning stock biomass from surveys of larvae (Strasburg, 1960; Richards, 1976; Scott et al., 1993). Despite this effort, and the a...

Yellowfin tuna, an important component of tuna fisheries throughout the WCPO, are harvested with a diverse variety of gear types, from small-scale artisanal fisheries in Pacific Island and southeast Asian waters to large, distant-water longliners and purse seiners that operate widely in equatorial and tropical waters. Purse seiners catch a wide size range of yellowfin tuna, whereas the longline...
