Amino Acid Composition of Thirty Food Fishes of the Ganga Riverine Environment for Addressing Amino Acid Requirement through Fish Supplementation.

Amino acids are significant biomolecules that govern the major metabolic processes and act as precursors for macromolecules such as proteins that are crucial to life. Fish is an integral component of human nutrition and a dietary source of high-quality animal proteins and amino acids. In this context, the crude protein and amino acid compositions of food fish from different landing stations of the Ganga river have been determined.

Sustainable biodiesel production from microalgae Graesiella emersonii through valorization of garden wastes-based vermicompost.

Biodiesel production from microalgae has gained significant interest recently due to the growing energy demand and non-renewable nature of petroleum. However, high cost of production and environmental health related issues like excess use of inorganic fertilizers, eutrophication are the major constraints in commercial-scale biodiesel production. Besides this, solid wastes (garden-based) management is also a global concern.

Arsenic Bioaccumulation and Identification of Low-Arsenic-Accumulating Food Fishes for Aquaculture in Arsenic-Contaminated Ponds and Associated Aquatic Ecosystems.

Arsenic-contaminated food including farmed fish is one of the main routes of human exposure. Fish farmed in contaminated environment accumulates arsenic in different tissues with great variability. Thus, it is utmost important to quantify the risk associated with different farmed fish species in arsenic-contaminated aquaculture systems.
