Phytate, a potent inhibitor of calcium, iron, and zinc absorption, may hamper the bioavailability these micronutrients at time pregnancy. This study assessed dietary phytate intake its inhibitory effect on from diets pregnant women in rural Bangladesh. The also explored significant determinants that predicted absorption minerals diet. A multiple pass recall (MPR) approach was used for this study, with in-depth probing interview covering 24-h conducted among 717 who were either their second...
Assessment of litterfall production is essential to ascertain the status nutrient cycling and forest health. Sarawak, Malaysia, endowed with numerous pristine estuarine mangroves; however, research on primary productivity these forests scanty. Therefore, in a Sibuti mangrove Sarawak was estimated using litter traps for one year (January–December 2013), structure studied through tree census. The dominated by Rhizophora apiculata (relative density [RD] 77.11%), followed Xylocarpus granatum (RD...
Rice is a staple food for nearly half the world population. cultivation relies heavily on urea fertilization. However, use of prone to significant losses and contributes environmental pollution. This study was aimed at fabricating nitrogen-rich chitin nanomaterials assessing their effects growth yield rice. Chitin nanofibers (ChNF), with widths ranging from 10 30 nm, were successfully isolated shrimp shells by chemical pretreatment mechanical fibrillation. Pot-grown rice plants treated...
This study was carried out to assess the fishery resources of Sibuti River estuary, Sarawak, Malaysia. Data were collected from area for a period one year in different seasons. The estuary is relatively species-rich and total 4675 individuals 32 families 60 species fish (55), crab (four) shrimp (one) collected. Coilia dussumieri dominant (22.63%) followed by Nemapteryx caelata (11.85%), Otolithes ruber (7.85%) Ilisha elongata (5.80%). Marked seasonal variations found among most...
In Dhaka megacity (Bangladesh), lakes located in the most exclusive areas are considered crucial urban water bodies. However, these sources confronting a heavy load of organic and inorganic pollutants by anthropogenic activities being polluted continuously. this review , 50 relevant published documents on lake to highlight overall quality status potential ecological human health risks associated with contaminations were studied. The retrieved organized according information examined...
Phytoplankton are the basic component of aquatic food chain. To date phytoplankton communities from coastal waters Bangladesh have received only little scientific attention. Consequently, abundance and community composition their relationship with some abiotic factors were studied during December 2014 to August 2015 in Reju Khal estuary south-eastern coast Bangladesh. Marked seasonal differences observed for all measured factors. The density cells ranged between 9408 21,964 L−1 had...
Trace metals from industrial effluents discharged into Malaysian mangrove ecosystems, in Sarawak particular, are of growing concern. Concentrations trace (copper, manganese, iron, and zinc) were determined sediment, surface water, pore green red filamentous macroalgae (Chaetomorpha sp. Bostrychia sp., respectively) the rock oyster Saccostrea cucullata three estuarine habitats (Kuala Nyalau, Bakam, Miri), Malaysia. metal concentrations detected sediment these ecosystems (except for Zn...
Seasonal abundance of zooplankton in relation to different physico-chemical conditions Kaptai lake has been studied. A total four major groups were identified from study area during three seasons observation at pre-monsoon, monsoon and Post-monsoon. These categorized into rotifers, copepods, cladocerans others (fish larvae, shrimp insects, mosquito larvae etc.). The mean group cladoceras 103, 84.67, 38.33 41.83 ind. L-1 respectively. highest was rotifers terms composition where compositions...
Mangrove macroalgae produce substantial proportion of biomass, which contributes to the coastal ecosystems. Relatively less is known for seasonal variation in occurrence and biomass mangrove associated macroalgae. Consequently, epiphytic on pneumatophores Avicennia marina (Forsk.) Vierh., were sampled from Miri estuary Sarawak during four seasons Malaysia namely southwest monsoon, northeast two inter-monsoons elucidate production Over sample period, 11 species identified 6 genera. Six these...
Saltmarsh and seagrass communities are coastal macrophytes. These perform a number of important ecological functions, one which is to support substantial fishery resources either as nursery ground or refuge from predators. The Bangladesh coast houses saltmarsh but there has been sparse information on the diversity fisheries adjacent these plant communities. Consequently, this study was carried out obtain shoot density biomass dominant (Porteresia coarctata) (Halophila beccarii) species...
