Abstract:
... Production of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) was banned in the US in 1970s. However, susceptible populations especially those living at/around the contaminated sites continue to be at a risk of elevated exposure to PCBs because information about the contamination (of the environment) and its associated health risks may not reach these populations. A recent study found the second highest concentra ...

Abstract:
... Histamine is known to be a principal causative agent associated with marine food poisoning outbreaks worldwide, which is typically formed in the contaminated food by decarboxylation of histidine by bacterial histidine decarboxylase. Upon quantification of histamine in different food products, one can comment on the quality of the food and use it as an indicator of the good manufacturing practices ...

Abstract:
... Concurrent ectoparasite infections on fishes are commonly encountered in the wild and in aquaculture (Rohde 1984; Hoffman 1999), for example, infections of both Ichthyophthirius multifiliis Fouquet, 1876 (Hymenostomatida: Ichthyopththiriidae; Colorni 2008) and gill‐infecting monogenoids (Platyhelminthes: Monogenoidea; Whittington and Chisholm 2008). The decision to aggressively treat infections of ...

Abstract:
... The lack of an immediate-release sedative (i.e., one for which no postsedation holding or withdrawal period is required) jeopardizes fish and fisheries research and poses considerable risk to those involved in aquatic resource management and the operation of public hatcheries and commercial fish farms. Carbon dioxide may be used as an immediate-release sedative, but it is slow-acting and difficult ...

Abstract:
... A DNA vaccine against infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) is effective at protecting rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, against disease, but intramuscular injection is required and makes the vaccine impractical for use in the freshwater rainbow trout farming industry. Poly (D,L‐lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) (PLGA) is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved polymer that can be us ...

The two suspected fish samples contained 11.3 and 37.7 mg/100 g of histamine, which is greater than the 5.0 mg/100 g allowable limit suggested by the United States Food and Drug Administration. Given the allergy-like symptoms of the victim ...
