Abstract In recent years, aquaculture is considered a fastest‐blooming global food industry, playing crucial role in fulfilling the increased demand for animal protein requirements. However, disease prevalence, chemical contamination, environmental degradation and ineffective feed utilization are factors that drastically hinder outcome of this sector aiding to achieve security. regard, new avenues have been paved science technology cope with these challenges aquaculture. Among these,...
Abstract The aims of this review are to describe the role ‘blue‐food production’ (animals, plants and algae harvested from freshwater marine environments) within a circular bioeconomy, discuss how such framework can help sustainability resilience aquaculture summarise key examples novel nutrient sources that emerging in field fed‐aquaculture species. Aquaculture now provides >50% global seafood supply, share is expected increase at least 60% next decade. an important tool for reducing...
In this study, high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) using casein as stabilizer and soybean oil Litsea cubeba (LCO) were prepared added into silver carp surimi. The effects of LCO-HIPEs on the gel flavor properties surimi product studied. After chopping, heating storing, showed emulsion droplets with particle size 11 μm remained solid structure. Compared Oil-added gels, HIPEs-added groups exhibited higher strength, water holding capacity whiteness. Low-field NMR analysis revealed that gels...
Presently, ~68.6 million tons of chilled-stored seafood are available globally for human consumption, worth ~129.5 billion €. At least ~13.7 (worth 25.8 €) probably spoilt each year, from post-catch till consumption. A growing interest in essential oils (EOs) as bio-preservatives is recently visible – prolific research during 2015–2020. Data 180 scientific articles were reviewed and meta-analyzed. Our data-driven review aims to corroborate the promises EOs industry– where we stand go (?)....
There have been some arguments concerning supplementary feed (cereals) based common carp production in fishponds and water pollution, mostly Central Europe. Using Czech Republic (top producer EU) as a benchmark combining data on nutrient digestibility of feedstuffs used combined with analyses literature data, we assessed – footprint (∼9.4–10.8 kg N ha−1, ∼2.7–3.2 P ha−1; 1.5–4 × < EU crop-livestock sectors); utilization efficiencies (NUEN ∼36%, NUEP ∼50%; 1.5–1.7 > livestock average);...
Abstract Metadata from 70 research articles on Cyprinus carpio digestibility published between 1973 and 2017, covering 71 feed ingredients, were analysed. Interquartile range (IR) of nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) content in feedstuffs was 5–8% 0.7–1.2% dry matter, respectively, with digestible N:P 7.2:1–44.1:1. IR N (79–99%) high, whereas P (27–47%) rather poor. Dietary energy (gross non‐protein energy) >76%. Higher caused significant negative interferences for digestibility. nutrient carp...
Abstract BACKGROUND Pickering emulsions (PEs) which are stabilized by solid particles instead of surfactants have recently attracted tremendous attentions due to their non‐toxic and long‐term stable nature. In the current study, we fabricated characterized zein (ZN)/chitosan (CS) complex (ZNCSPs) PE for encapsulation delivery vitamin D 3 . RESULTS The ZNCSPs were synthesized with different ratios, i.e. 1:1, 1:1.5 1:2 investigate optimum ratio. Transmission electron microscopy observations...
This study examined whether the lipid composition of common carp muscle can be improved and become an important source n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) in human nutrition. Carp from three pond production systems South Bohemia were given access to plankton, plankton with addition cereals, or pellets containing rapeseed cake suggested enhance nutritional value. White acid was investigated compared among treatments. Fish no supplements characterized by a high content HUFA, especially...
The aim of this study was to find the effects frozen storage on lipid and protein oxidation, firmness, liquid loss, sensory properties, nutritional values in common carp (Cyprinus carpio) fillets during 6 months (–20 °C). Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, peroxide value, carbonyl concentration were significantly increased after 4th, 2nd, 8th weeks, respectively. firmness decreased, whereas loss increased. In contrast, evaluation did not show any significant changes. amount...
