Atlantic salmon Salmo salar were infected with sea lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis (0·08 ± 0·007 sea lice g−1 ) over a period of 4 h. Both infected and non‐infected fish were swim tested in sea water (SW) and fresh water (FW). The ventral aorta of each fish was fitted with a Doppler cuff in order to measure cardiac output, stroke volume and heart rate during swim testing. Blood samples were taken at rest and after exercise. Critical swimming speed of infected fish in SW (2·14 ± 0·08 body lengths, bl s−1 ) was significantly lower ( P < 0·05) than infected fish switched to FW (2·81 ± 0·08 bl s−1 ) and non‐infected fish in SW (2·42 ± 0·04 bl s−1 ) and FW (2·61 ± 0·08 bl s−1 ). Cardiac and blood results indicated infected fish exposed to FW did experience stress, but relief from osmotic and ionic distress probably reduces energy expenditure, allowing the increase in performance. As the performance of sea lice‐infected fish improved upon transfer to FW, it is likely that heavily infected salmonids do return to FW to restore compromised osmotic and ionic balance, and remove sea lice in the process. 相似文献

The von Bertalanffy growth parameters for common wolf–fish Anarhichas lupus in the North Sea were: male: L ∞=111·2 cm, t 0 =–0·43 and K =0·12; and female: L ∞=115·1 cm, t 0 =–0·39 and K =0·11, making this the fastest growing stock reported. Resting metabolic rates (RMR±S.E.) and maximum metabolic rates (MMR±S.E.) for six adult common wolf–fish (mean weight, 1·39 kg) at 5° C were 12·18±1·6 mg O2 kg–1 h–1 and 70·65±7·63 mg O2 kg–1 h–1 respectively, and at 10° C were 25·43±1·31 mg O2 kg–1 h–1 and 113·84±16·26 mg O2 kg–1 h–1 . Absolute metabolic scope was 53% greater at 10° C than at 5° C. The diet was dominated by Decapoda (39% overall by relative occurrence), Bivalvia (20%) and Gastropoda (12%). Sea urchins, typically of low energy value, occupied only 7% of the diet. The fast growth probably resulted from summer temperatures approximating to the optimum for food processing and growth, but may have been influenced by diet, and reduced competition following high fishing intensity. 相似文献

The mean rate of oxygen consumption (routine respiration rate, R R , mg O2 fish−1 h−1 ), measured for individual or small groups of haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus (3–12 cm standard length, L S ) maintained for 5 days within flow‐through respiratory chambers at four different temperatures, increased with increasing dry mass ( M D ). The relationship between R R and M D was allometric ( R R = α M b ) with b values of 0·631, 0·606, 0·655 and 0·650 at 5·0, 8·0, 12·0 and 15·0° C, respectively. The effect of temperature ( T ) and M D on mean R R was described by indicating a Q 10 of 2·27 between 5 and 15° C. Juvenile haddock routine metabolic scope, calculated as the ratio of the mean of highest and lowest deciles of R R measured in each chamber, significantly decreased with temperature such that the routine scope at 15° C was half that at 5° C. The cost of feeding ( R SDA ) was c . 3% of consumed food energy, a value half that found for larger gadoid juveniles and adults. 相似文献

The compensatory growth of juvenile brown flounder Paralichthys olivaceus (body mass c. 12 g) following different thermal exposure was investigated. Fish were exposed to one of the five temperatures: 8·5 ( T 8·5 ), 13·0 ( T 13·0 ), 17·5 ( T 17·5 ), 22·0 ( T 22·0 ) and 26·5° C ( T 26·5 ) for 10 days and fish grew best at 22·0° C. Then the water temperature in all treatments was equably adjusted to 22·0° C over 3 days. At the end of the following 30 days after temperature adjustment, there were no significant differences between body masses of fish in the different treatments (wet body mass at the end of the experiment ranged from 22·13 to 24·56 g). Results indicated that the juvenile P. olivaceus achieved complete compensatory growth. Analysis of the dynamics of the feeding rates and feed conversion efficiencies indicated that compensatory growth of the fish experienced low temperature ( T 8·5 , T 13·5 and T 17·5 ) or high temperature ( T 26·5 ) exposure was mainly dependent on increasing feed intake (hyperphagia) and possibly by improvement in feed conversion efficiency. The moisture content was not affected by different temperature exposure significantly. The lipid and energy content of juvenile P. olivaceus in T 8·5 , however, were significantly lower than other treatment. Results of the current study indicate that a short period of low or high temperature exposure may not affect annual growth, but may affect lipid and energy deposition. 相似文献

Survival of Escherichia coli O157 : H7 in yoghurt during preparation and storage at 4°C 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cow's milk was inoculated with ca 103 and 107 cfu ml−1 Escherichia coli O157 : H7. After fermentation at 42°C for 0–5 h, the yoghurt was stored at 4°C. Two kinds of yoghurt were used : traditional yoghurt (TY), made with Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus starter cultures, and 'bifido' yoghurt (BY), made with the two starter cultures plus Bifidobacterium bifidum . After 7 d E. coli O157 : H7 decreased from 3·52 to 2·72 log10 cfu ml−1 and from 7·08 to 5·32 log10 cfu ml−1 in TY, and from 3·49 to 2·73 log10 cfu ml−1 and from 7·38 to 5·41 log10 cfu ml−1 in BY. The pH values of yoghurt dropped from 6·6 to 4·5 and 4·4 in TY (for low and high pathogen inocula, respectively), and from 6·6 to 4·6 and 4·5 in BY (for low and high pathogen inocula, respectively). 相似文献

The present study aimed to develop a protocol for somatic embryogenesis and encapsulation of coffee embryos (Coffea arabica L.), for the conservation of genotypes with characteristics of commercial interest. Somatic embryos were induced from leaf explants in Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) supplemented with 1 mg · L−1 of 2,4-dichlorophenoxiacetic acid (2,4-D) combined with 2 mg · L−1 of benzyladenine (BA). Somatic embryos (SE) at the globular stage were encapsulated in a sodium alginate matrix; two treatments were tested: MS + 5 mg · L−1 BA + 1 mg · L−1 NAA + 3% (w/v) alginate, and MS + 7 mg · L−1 BA + 5.7 mg · L−1 indoleacetic acid (IAA) + 3% (w/v) alginate. Alginate was complexed with 100 mM calcium chloride (CaCl2). Viability of the encapsulated SE was determined by staining with 0.01% fluorescein diacetate (FDA) after 0, 15, 30, and 45 days of storage at 4°C. Embryo viability was 100% in both treatments. 相似文献

The effect of mint ( Mentha piperita ) essential oil (0·5, 1·0, 1·5 and 2·0%, v/w) on Salmonella enteritidis and Listeria monocytogenes in a culture medium and three model foods; tzatziki (pH 4·5), taramosalata (pH 5·0) and pâté (pH 6·8), inoculated at 107 cfu g-1 , at 4° and 10°C for ca 1 week was studied. In the culture medium supplemented with the essential oil, no growth was observed over 2 d at 30°C determined by a conductance method with a Malthus 2000 growth analyser. Salmonella enteritidis died in tzatziki in all treatments and declined in the other foods except for pâté at 10°C as judged with viable counts. Listeria monocytogenes populations showed a declining trend towards the end of the storage period but was increased in pâté. Mint essential oil antibacterial action depended mainly on its concentration, food pH, composition, storage temperature and the nature of the micro-organism. 相似文献

Inter‐individual differences in rates of routine (non‐feeding) metabolism and growth were evaluated in young‐of‐the‐year (YOY) juvenile Atlantic cod Gadus morhua . Rates of O2 consumption, CO2 production and ammonia (TAN) excretion were measured in 64, 25–43 mm standard length ( L S ) YOY growing at different rates (0·27–0·47 mm day−1 ) in a common rearing tank. Parameter rates ( y ) increased allometrically ( y = a·Mb ) with increasing body mass ( M ) with b ‐values for O2 production, CO2 consumption and TAN excretion equal to 0·81, 0·89 and 0·56, respectively. In some cases, residuals from these regressions were significantly negatively correlated to fish growth rate. In no cases did residuals of parameter rates increase with increasing growth rate. These data suggest that, during unfed periods, relatively fast‐growing fish were more metabolically efficient than slower‐growing fish from the same cohort. The fish condition factor, derived from , also significantly decreased with increasing growth rate. Results indicated differences in both the rates of routine energy loss and the patterns of growth allocation among YOY Atlantic cod. Since these physiological attributes were positively correlated with growth rate, they may be indicative of 'survivors' in field populations. 相似文献

Thermomonospora curvata contains α-1,4-glucosidase that is induced duringgrowth on maltose and starch. Maltose acts as an inducer of α-glucosidase even in thepresence of glucose. An intracellular thermostable α-glucosidase from T. curvata wasdetected in the crude extract on SDS-PAGE by means of modified colour reaction afterrenaturation of the enzyme. The enzyme was purified 59-fold to homogeneity with a yield of17·7% by a combination of ion-exchange and hydrophobic interaction chromatography andgel filtration. The enzyme has an apparent molecular mass of 60±1 kDa and isoelectric point4·1. The α-glucosidase exhibits optimum activity at pH 7·0–7·5 and54°C. The activity is inhibited by heavy metals and is positively affected by Ca2 + andMg2 +. The enzyme hydrolyses maltose, sucrose, p-nitrophenyl-α- d -glucopyranoside and maltodextrins from maltotriose up to maltoheptaose with a decreasingefficiency. The Km for maltose and p-NPG are 12 and 2·3 mmol l−1 ,respectively. 相似文献

Galacto-oligosaccharide-producing β-galactosidase from Sirobasidium magnum CBS6803 was purified to homogeneity with a yield of 60% by DEAE–toyopearl, butyl–toyopearl, p -aminobenzyl 1-thio-β- d -galactopyranoside–agarose and concanavalin A–agarose columns, from a solubilized cell wall preparation. The isoelectric point (pI) of purified β-galactosidase was 3·8, and the relative molecular mass was 67 000 as estimated by SDS gel electrophoresis, and 135 000 as estimated by gel filtration. Optimal β-galactosidase activity was observed at a temperature and pH of 65°C and pH 4·5–5·5, respectively. The K m values for o -nitrophenyl-β- d -galactopyranoside and lactose were 14·3 and 5·5 mmol l−1 , respectively, and the V max values for these substrates were 33·4 and 94·5 μmol min−1 mg of protein−1 , respectively. In addition this enzyme possessed a high level of transgalactosylation activity, and 72 mg ml−1 galacto-oligosaccharide was produced from 200 mg ml−1 lactose. 相似文献

A new technique using a single camera and shadows to determine 3‐D spatial positions of fishes in the laboratory is described. The apparatus consisted of a large aquarium (2·0 × 1·5 × 0·4 m), a wide‐angle camera mounted above and two light sources to cast shadows to either side of the fish. Using image analysis and vector mathematics, aquarium objects were plotted within 1·5 cm of their actual location along the x ‐, y ‐ and z ‐axis. The technique was also successful in quantifying changes in 3‐D spatial pattern of juvenile fish, Atlantic cod Gadus morhua (7·4–8·6 cm standard length, L S ) and cohabitant piscivorous shorthorned sculpin Myoxocephalus scorpinus (12·0–25·8 cm L S ), at these same viewing fields. The new technique should have a wide application, largely because it is potentially less expensive, laborious and invasive than alternative methods for determining 3‐D positions of fishes. 相似文献

An extracellular β-glucosidase enzyme was purified from the fungus Aspergillus niger strain 322 . The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated to be 64 kDa by SDS gel electrophoresis. Optimal pH and temperature for β-glucosidase were 5·5 and 50 °C, respectively. Purified enzyme was stable up to 50 °C and pH between 2·0 and 5·5. The Km was 0·1 mmol l−1 for cellobiose. Enzyme activity was inhibited by several divalent metal ions. 相似文献

This study analysed the total length ( L T )‐frequency distribution of mackerel icefish Champsocephalus gunnari at South Georgia and Shag Rocks from nine bottom trawl surveys at South Georgia and eight at Shag Rocks between 1987 and 2002. The estimated mean L T of age‐classes 1+, 2+, 3+ and 4+ years during January were, respectively, 14·7, 23·5, 29·8 and 35·1 cm at South Georgia. Age‐classes 1+, 2+ and 3+ years were 18·3, 26·2 and 33·8 cm at Shag Rocks. The derived Bertalanffy growth parameters for South Georgia were: L ∞ = 51·7 cm, k = 0·27 and t 0 = −0·26. The mean L T of each age‐class of C. gunnari at Shag Rocks was significantly larger than at South Georgia, equivalent to c . 5 months growth, although the annual growth in L T was similar. This is further evidence that C. gunnari hatched earlier at Shag Rocks. At South Georgia, the mean L T of age‐classes 1+ and 3+ years were correlated, and significantly decreased between 1987 and 2002, and were smaller following warmer summers. This decrease in the size of C. gunnari may be the result of reduced food availability linked to climate warming. 相似文献

Aims: To evaluate the free radical-scavenging capacity of Lactobacillus fermentum and its effects on antioxidant enzyme levels in finishing pigs.
Methods and Results: The free radical-scavenging activity of Lact. fermentum was analysed in vitro . The tested Lactobacillus showed a high scavenging ability against DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl), superoxide and hydroxyl radicals which was dose dependent. Subsequently, 108 crossbred pigs weighing 20·67 BW, were allotted to dietary treatments including a basal diet or the basal diet supplemented with either aureomycin or 10·2 × 107 Lact. fermentum CFU g−1 diet. Supplementation of Lact. fermentum increased total antioxidant capacity ( P < 0·01) in serum from 50 kg pigs, while serum superoxide dismutase ( P = 0·01) and glutathione peroxidase ( P < 0·01) increased, and malondialdehyde levels decreased ( P < 0·01) in 90 kg pigs. Hepatic catalase ( P = 0·04), muscle superoxide dismutase ( P < 0·01) and copper–zinc-superoxide dismutase were enhanced ( P = 0·01), whereas malondialdehyde levels were reduced ( P = 0·05) by Lact. fermentum .
Conclusions: The free radical-scavenging capacity of Lact. fermentum was dose dependent and its supplementation improved the antioxidant status of pigs.
Significance and Impact of the Study: Lactobacillus fermentum could be used to alleviate oxidative stress and increase pig performance and improve pork quality. 相似文献

The effect of chlorine on β- D- galactosidase activity of sewage bacteria and Escherichia coli was studied. β- D- galactosidase activity of sewage was more resistant to chlorine than faecal coliform cultivability. At low initial dosage (0·05 mg Cl2 l−1 ) neither cultivability (colony-forming units (cfu)), nor enzyme activity of E. coli suspensions were severely impaired. When initial chlorine concentration was increased to 0·1 mg Cl2 l−1 , the cfu number decreased whereas enzyme activity remained high, i.e. the enzyme activity calculated cfu−1 increased. At higher chlorine doses both cfu and enzyme activity were reduced, but non-cultivable cells retained assayable activity after chlorination. Mean values of the enzyme activity calculated cfu−1 decreased when the chlorine dosage was increased from 0·1 to 0·5 mg Cl2 l−1 , but were not significantly different ( P > 0·05) for dosages of 0·2–0·7 mg Cl2 l−1 . After chlorination, β- D- galactosidase activity of E. coli was less reduced than cfu and direct viable count numbers, but more reduced than 5-cyano-2-3, ditolyl tetrazolium chloride and total cell counts, and the enzyme activity represented an alternative activity parameter of chlorinated samples. 相似文献

The following parameter values are derived for a West Kalimantan (West Borneo) stock of the threadfin bream, Nemipterus marginatus :
L∞ = 24·5 cm(L.T.), W∞ = 210g, K = 0·42, t = -0·41 andM= 1·73.
Yield-per-recruit curves for N. marginatus are presented. Catch per hour of N. marginatus is very low, even in the area of highest density (=3·5 kg/h at 45 m depth). Single-species exploitation of a stock of the type represented by N. marginatus appears unfeasible and the conclusion is reached that the traditional single-species approach in fish population dynamics—such as exemplified in this paper—does not help in formulating rational exploitation schemes. 相似文献

Saccharomycopsis fibuligera ST 2 produced high levels of extracellular amylase during the stationary phase of growth. Glucose or other low molecular weight metabolizable sugars did not repress the synthesis of the amylase, indicating the lack of catabolite repression in this organism. Of the nitrogen sources examined, yeast extract and corn steep liquor stimulated the highest yield of amylase. Ammonium sulphate inhibited α-amylase synthesis. The enzyme was purified 118-fold from the culture supernatant fluid by isopropanol precipitation and DEAE-Sephadex A50 chromatography. The purified enzyme was characterized as an α-amylase. The α-amylase had the following properties: molecular weight, 40900 ± 500; optimum temperature, 60°C; activation energy, 1600 cal/mol; optimum pH, 4·8–6·0; range of pH stability, pH 4·0–9·4; Km (50°C, pH 5·5) for soluble starch, 0·572 mg/ml; final products of starch hydrolysis—glucose, maltose, maltotriose and maltotetraose. 相似文献

Lemon sharks Negaprion brevirostris were sampled in the Atol das Rocas, a nursery area, on nine occasions from March 1999 to October 2003, during which 157 individuals were tagged and 35 were recaptured. The male : female sex ratio of captured individuals was 1 : 1·12. Mean ± s . d . growth rates were 24·7 ± 3·4 cm year−1 in total length ( L T ), 20·7 ± 3·2 cm year−1 in fork length, and 19·5 ± 2·7 cm year−1 in precaudal length. There was no significant difference in growth rates between males and females. Mean ± s . d . increase in mass was 2565 ± 762 g year−1 . The von Bertalanffy growth parameters estimated by the Fabens method based on L T were: k = 0·077, L ∞ = 399·9 cm and t 0 = −2·16. Despite the large variation of environmental conditions, particularly of tidal range and currents, and the lack of protective mangrove cover in the nursery area at Atol das Rocas, juvenile lemon sharks grew relatively faster than at other nurseries. Such rapid growth could be a response to abundant food availability or high risk of predation by adults that enter the nursery area. 相似文献

Oxygen consumption rate was significantly ( P <0·05) elevated at 1·67 and 3·07 mg l−1 TA-N in chronically treated fish and ventilation frequency increased significantly ( P <0·05) at 0·55, 1·67, 3·07 mg l−1 TA-N and 4·59, 9·10 mg l−1 NO2 -N. There were no significant differences in growth between controls and ammonia exposed fish. Mortalities occurred at 14·8, 19·9 mg l−1 TA-N. 相似文献

Lipid formation and γ-linolenic acid production by Mucorales fungi grown on sunflower oil 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Lipid formation and γ-linolenic acid (GLA) production by 48 species of Mucorales fungi grown on sunflower oil (which consists of 70% linoleic acid ; LA) were studied. The strains accumulated 42·7–65·8% lipid in biomass (7·66–13·39 g l−1 ). Eight cultures produced more than 200 mg GLA l−1 . Highest GLA yields exhibited Mucor mucedo CCF-1384 and Cunninghamella echinulata CCF-103 (379 and 373 mg l−1 , respectively). Mortierella alpina CCF-185 synthesized 465 mg l−1 arachidonic acid. While the decrease of LA utilization index (ratio of LA content of cell lipid/LA content of oil source) was accompanied with growth of delipidized biomass and with reduction of lipid accumulation within the cells, high lipid yield was as a consequence of the direct oil source incorporation into intracellular lipid. 相似文献
