background: amylin and salmon calcitonin belong to the calcitonin family of peptides and have high affinity binding sites in the rat spinal cord. the aim of this study was to characterize receptors for amylin and salmon calcitonin functionally in the spinal cord of rats. we assessed the expression of c-fos in response to intraplantar formalin in the lumbar regions of the spinal cord in consciou...

Iran contributes to the stock enhancement of several economically valuable fish species, including the Caspian salmon, S. trutta caspius, by producing and releasing millions of fingerlings into the sea. This work was conducted to determine the production costs of the Caspian salmon fingerlings in the years 2002 and 2003. For this purpose, a questionnaire was prepared and filled in by an expert ...

the effects of fish weight on salinity tolerance were studied in caspian salmon (salmo trutta caspius) parr. 180 fish (all with 2 years old but with three weights; 5, 15, 25g) were selected and they reared in freshwater (fw) and brackish water (bw; 13ppt salinity) for 10 days. the mrna expression of two α-subunit isoforms of na+, k+-atpase (α1a and α1b) and nkcc co-transporters were studied in ...

background: cutaneous manifestations are commonly observed in the neonatal period. it is important to differentiate physiologic skin lesions from pathologic ones to avoid parents’ concerns. regarding this, the current study aimed to investigate the frequency and localization of salmon patch (sp) and mongolian spot (ms) in iranian newborns to assess the potential relationship between the neonata...

Pink salmon, Oncorhynchus gorbuscha, are the most abundant wild salmon species and are thought of as an indicator of ecosystem health. The salmon louse, Lepeophtheirus salmonis, is endemic to pink salmon habitat but these ectoparasites have been implicated in reducing local pink salmon populations in the Broughton Archipelago, British Columbia. This allegation arose largely because juvenile pin...

The disease Heart and Skeletal Muscle Inflammation (HSMI) is causing substantial economic losses to the Norwegian salmon farming industry where the causative agent, piscine orthoreovirus (PRV), is reportedly spreading from farmed to wild Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) with as yet undetermined impacts. To assess if PRV infection is epidemiologically linked between wild and farmed salmon in the ea...

Sushi, a very popular food worldwide became a popular ready-to-eat food selling in supermarkets, but it exhibit distinct features, which are associated with microbiological hazards. Therefore, MAP technology, known to reduce aerobic bacteria in fishery products, was used to improve quality of ready-to-eat salmon sushi in this study. Salmon sushi were packaged with air (control), 50%N2 /50%CO2 (...

their year-class strength is necessary from both scientific and management perspectives. We examined correlations among juvenile coho salmon indices, associated biophysical variables, and adult coho salmon harvest data from southeast Alaska over the years 1997–2006. We found no relationship between summer indices of juvenile coho salmon growth, condition, or abundance with subsequent harvest of...
