Growth performance of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) fed a mixture of single cell ingredients for organic diets
(Elsevier, 2024-04-22)
The aim of this study was to investigate the growth performance of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) fed with a mixture of a single cell ingredient (SCI) (bacterial protein, yeast protein and algae) ...
The Use of a DNA-Intercalating Dye for Quantitative Detection of Viable Arcobacter spp. Cells (v-qPCR) in Shellfish
(Frontiers, 2019-02-28)
The genus Arcobacter (Vandamme et al., 1991), comprised of Campylobacter-related species, are considered zoonotic emergent pathogens. The presence of Arcobacter in food products like shellfish, has an ...
Mating behaviour and gamete release in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata, Linnaeus 1758) held in captivity
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, 2015-02-11)
The present study aimed to describe the reproductive behaviour of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) in captivity. Twenty-four mature gilthead seabream, divided in two tanks, were utilized for the present ...
Exploring patterns of variation in amphipod assemblages at multiple spatial scales: natural variability versus coastal aquaculture effect
(Inter Research, 2013-01-03)
A 5-factor design survey was carried out to examine the spatial distribution at different scales of amphipod assemblages and sedimentary variables in soft bottoms adjacent to coastal aquaculture ...
Dependence of element composition of bile of freshwater and marine fishes on some abiotic and biotic factors
(Frontiers, 2023-10-18)
Introduction: The elemental composition and physical properties of fish bile is a very important marker for ecotoxicological and physiological studies as bile is able to accumulate elements from ...
Stressors due to handling impair gut immunity in meagre (Argyrosomus regius): the compensatory role of dietary L-Tryptophan
(Frontiers Media, 2019-05-10)
In the context of intensive aquaculture, meagre (Argyrosomus regius) is one of the most important new aquaculture species in Southern Europe and several studies are focused on the optimization of its ...
The zebrafish genome encodes the largest vertebrate repertoire of functional aquaporins with dual paralogy and substrate specificities similar to mammals
(BMC, 2010-02-11)
Background: Aquaporins are integral membrane proteins that facilitate the transport of water and small solutes
across cell membranes. These proteins are vital for maintaining water homeostasis in living ...
An assessment of disease occurrence and mortality in marine fish farming in Spain
(Elsevier, 2022-07-11)
Marine fish farming in Spain, as in most Mediterranean countries, focuses on the production of European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata). The sector has experienced ...
Economic assessment of investment in automatic feeding systems for sea bass grow-out farms of different sizes
(Wiley, 2023-04-27)
The aim of this work was to run an economic assessment of investment in automatic feeding systems for grow-out farms of different sizes producing European sea bass in the Mediterranean Sea. For this, ...
Assessing the economic impact of key operational factors on grow-out farms producing European sea bass under different scenarios of production
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-11-05)
The aim of this work is to evaluate how changes in a set of different key operational factors (e.g., the unit sales price, the fingerling unit cost, the feed unit cost, and so on) would impact on the ...
