commercial utilization of black mouth croaker (atrobucca nibe) is in progress in iran. this study was carried out to assess the physicochemical and sensory evaluation of minced fish and surimi prepared from small size of a. nibe, which is not common for human consumption. the surimi proximate composition contains protein (14.77±0.506%), lipid (0.94±0.081%), ash (0.58±0.007%) contents and yield ...

fish finger is a semi-prepared product of fish that many studies have been done to improve its texture, taste, flavor and color. the present study aims at investigating the quality and sensory characteristics of fish fingers produced from fillet and surimi of common carp during storage in refrigerator. fish fingers were packed and then stored in refrigerator (4 °c). chemical parameters (fat con...

Study was conducted to study the shelf life, proximate composition, biochemical, microbiological and organoleptic changes in fish finger prepared from minced meat of fish rohu (Labeo rohita) with suitable recipe. Prepared fish finger was stored in refrigerated condition at 4 0 C ± 1 0 C for 11 days. The yield rate of minced meat from the whole fish was 39.31 %. The moisture and protein content ...

Retained foreign bodies can be a source of infection and a cause of disability. A 63-year-old white man presented with a nonhealing wound of the right second finger of 1 month's duration. The injury occurred while cleaning fish. Radiographs and subsequent wound exploration showed a retained fish scale in a finger wound. In addition to foreign bodies, atypical infectious organisms must be consid...

abstract in this study, big-head carp flesh was processed and fish finger was produced by the formula of 1, 2 and 3 with 70, 80 and 93.5 percent of big head fish flesh respectively. then sensory attributes, biochemical changes and nutritional value such as peroxide value (pv), thiobarbituric acid (tba) and the total volatile nitrogen (tvb-n) changes and microbial load of all three formulas were...

This study describes a new technique called the "fish hook" technique for the treatment of bony mallet finger. This technique catches the dorsal fragment with a bent K-wire shaped like a fish hook. Transarticular fixation is performed with another K-wire. This technique does not directly penetrate the bone fragment to prevent fragment comminution. This study included 26 patients with mallet fin...

Mycobacterium marinum is an unusual atypical mycobacterium with low pathogenicity for humans in comparison with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Among the non-tuberculous mycobacterial pathogens, Mycobacterium marinum is the most common pathogen to cause skin infections. Mycobacterium marinum infection causes chronic cutaneous lesions and in some cases deeper infections such as tenosynovitis, septic...

We report an unusual intoxication by tetrodotoxin (TTX). A curator of an aquarium sustained minor punctures in his finger from the spines of a porcupine fish during an autopsy of a dead porcupine fish. He developed paresthesias, numbness, paresis, dizziness and headache. The death of the fish might have caused some autolysis, leading to increased availability of TTX. In combination with direct ...

The present study was aimed to evaluate shelf life of Pike Barbell (Luciobarbus esocinus Heckel, 1843) experimental samples fish finger, that ordinarily packed and stored at 4±1°C. Together with the control group, three groups finger were obtained addition goji berry extract into this content by 1% 2%. According findings in study, it concluded fingers had a positive effect on chemical, microbio...

We describe the case of an elderly woman who acquired a Mycobacterium marinum infection following skin exposure to the bacteria through a small wound on her right ring finger, obtained while preparing fish. The resultant sporotrichoid nodules of the right hand and the distal forearm, refractory to the initial therapy with doxycycline and rifampicin, were successfully treated with oral regimen o...
