Preservation of Indian oil sardine (Sardinella longiceps) in iced and chilled seawater. Part 2 - Changes during storage with particular reference to salt penetration and lipid deterioration during CSW holding

Oil sardines in prime condition were chilled on board. Two lots were chilled in CSW (samples C & CI), one lot ice (sample I) and a fourth lot was left un-iced on deck (sample AI). Sample AI was iced after landing and sample CI was taken out of the chilled seawater and. iced. All the four samples were kept in a chilled room for storage studies. Sample C, chilled and stored in CSW, recorded a gradual gain in weight and an increase in salt content of the muscle. Presence of salt did not seem to cause any excessive protein denaturation. Salt extractability decreased at a gradual rate in all cases. Presence of salt seemed to wield no noticeable influence on lipid hydrolysis and subsequent peroxidation. Results of chemical and sensory evaluations highlight this. Holding sardines in CSW gave a product of excellent quality for the first four to five days of storage. Beyond the fifth day of storage quality deteriorated rapidly and there was no noticeable superiority for this sample (sample C) over the on board iced fish. This was evident in the sensory evaluation as well. However, a storage life of five days in a readily acceptable state is sufficient for the fish to be disposed in the market at a premium sale price over other landings of the same species.

Synthesis of analogues of flazin, in particular, flazinamide, as promising Anti-HIV agents

Flazin isolated from the fruiting bodies of Suillus granulatus was found to possess weak anti-HIV activity (EC50=2.36 mu m, TI= 12.1). To establish a SAR study, 46 flazin analogues were synthesized, and their anti-HIV activities were evaluated in vitro. A

A review of spider majid crabs of the northern Arabian Sea, with particular reference to Pakistani species, and with description of an undescribed Pleistacantha

The present report deals with the history of work done on northern Arabian Sea majids, their zoogeographical consideration and recognition of present status of certain genera which are established by recent workers. I have nothing of substance to add to previous treatment by Griffin & Tranter (1986). Emphasis is given to species inhabiting coastal waters of Pakistan. The occurrence of the genus Pleistacantha in the Arabian Sea and its adjacent gulfs is discussed in detail due to presence of a unique female which was taken by Fridtj of Nansen Cruise in 1977. This seems to be an undescribed species. At the moment the female is just given as Pleistacantha sp1 till more specimens obtained determine its position. Some interesting features of Doclea muricata are also considered.

Population dynamic and stock assessment of lobster resources of Cha-bahar region (with particular ref. to Panulirus homarus)

Amoungst the three spiny lobster species in southern Iranian waters, Panulirus homarus is the only commercial species with a total landings of 20-45 tons per year indicating a decrease in both landings and CPIJE in recent years. Fishing has been regulated according to the no. of fisherman and effort, and trap ha's replaced the gillnef since 1994. Fishing is carried out along the rocky shores of Chah-Bahar region through different landing places by local fisherman for a period of about two months. Most of catch is exported mainly frozen. This research was sposored by the Fisheries Research Dept. and aimed to work on the population dynamics and stock assessment in order to stablish a better understandings of the stock and hence a proper management in this region. Sampling was done for. 10 successive months in _5 major landing places from 1994 to 1995 with no sampling during the monsoon period through June to July. Althogethere, 8500 specimen were collected and the biometry was done accordings to the sex, region and month. Average total length, total weight and carapace length was obtained 216mm., 452 gr. and 75mm. respectively. Total length-weight relationship of both sexes was calculated and follows the cubic law. Regression coefficients for both sexes was 2.8231, males 2.9616, total females 2.7490, berried females 2.6611- and non-berried females

A tecnologia de microarranjos na identificação de genes de interesse na bovinocultura.

Como ferramenta de análise da expressão gênica, a tecnologia dos microarranjos de DNA permite a investigação de milhares de transcritos de um tecido, de maneira simultânea. Essa metodologia tem revolucionado diversas áreas do conhecimento, por meio do aumento substancial da capacidade analítica dos processos moleculares. Hoje, dentro da ciência animal, a disponibilidade desse método de investigação tem permitido aos pesquisadores identificar variações na expressão de determinados genes que possam ocorrer como respostas biológicas devido à condição experimental (idade, raça, estado fisiológico). Sob um aspecto prático, essa tecnologia tem seu papel na identificação de genes envolvidos na determinação de características fenotípicas de interesse econômico, os quais podem ser usados no desenvolvimento de métodos para a seleção de genótipos superiores dentro dos programas de Melhoramento Genético. Esse é um dos motivos de sua adoção em um dos projetos que compõe a carteira dos Macroprogramas da Embrapa, o MP1 Rede Genômica Animal. Assim, esta publicação tem como propósito posicionar o leitor a respeito da contribuição que a tecnologia de microarranjos de expressão tem trazido com respeito à identificação de genes e processos biológicos que atuam na manifestação de características de interesse econômico, em especial na bovinocultura. Além disso, pretende despertar o interesse da comunidade científica para uma área que ainda demanda muita pesquisa e à qual a Embrapa Informática Agropecuária tem dedicado um grande esforço: a análise dos dados gerados dos experimentos com microarranjos da Rede Genômica Animal.
