Elemental Composition and Health Risk Assessment of Deep-Sea Teleost's of the Levantine Basin.

The determination of metal(loid) (As, Fe, Al, Sr, Zn, Pb, Mn, Cu, Cr, and Cd) levels in the muscle tissue of 23 different deep-sea bony fish sampled off Mersin Bay (NE Levantine Basin) and the assessment of health risks for human consumption were aimed. Tissue metal(loid) concentrations were determined as dry weight and analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The tissue metal(loid) concentrations (µg g dw) were converted to wet weight prior to health risk assessment calculations.

The Anti-candidal and Absorbtion Performance of PVA/PVP-Based Jania rubens Hydrogel on Candida tropicalis and Some Physicochemical Properties of the Hydrogel.

This study was aimed to create a bioactive hydrogel form with PVA/PVP (polyvinyl alcohol/poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) polymer using acetone and ethanol extractions of Jania rubens red algae and investigate some pharmaceutical properties. The anti-candidal activity and some inhibition performance of J. rubens/PVA/PVP hydrogel were investigated on Candida tropicalis which is one of the important causes of bloodstream infections.

Inhibition performance of almond shell hydrochar-based fish oil emulsion gel on Klebsiella pneumonia inoculated fish skin and its characteristics.

In this study, the inhibition potential against Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) and the characterization of fish oil (FO) emulsion gel (EGE) containing almond shell hydrochar (AH) were investigated. Oily water of mullet liver was emulsified using tween 80, then gelled using gelatin and finally immobilized into hydrochar using an ultrasonic homogenizer.

Metal levels of canned fish sold in Türkiye: health risk assessment.

This study analyzed 34 canned fish products, including 28 tuna specimens, 3 salmon specimens, 1 mackerel specimen, and 1 anchovy specimen, from 13 different brands purchased in Türkiye. The study aimed to determine metal/metalloid levels in canned fish and potential health risks for both children and adult consumers. The metal/metalloid levels in the samples were determined using an Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS), with the range of levels found as follows (mg/kg, ww): Fe (12.

Monthly Variation of Tetrodotoxin Levels in Pufferfish () Caught from Antalya Bay, Mediterranean Sea.

The silver-cheeked toadfish (), an invasive alien pufferfish species that has rapidly settled throughout the Mediterranean region, poses significant threats not only to native marine species and fisheries but also to public health due to the tetrodotoxin (TTX) they harbor. In this study, TTX concentrations in from Antalya Bay in the Northeastern Mediterranean Sea were investigated using Q-TOF-LC-MS on a monthly basis over a one-year period. Pufferfish were caught by angling from May 2018 to April 2019.

Chemical composition, antifungal activity, antifungal mechanism and interaction manner of the fatty acid of L. with fluconazole.

The interaction manner of L. () seed oil (MSO) and fluconazole (FLC: antimycotic) combinations (MSO*FLC) against C. and C.

Elemental composition of pufferfish species from Northeastern Mediterranean Sea.

This study aimed at comparing the elemental levels of muscle and liver tissues of four pufferfish (Lagocephalus sceleratus, Lagocephalus spadiceus, Lagocephalus suezensis, and Torquigener flavimaculosus), which are common in the Northeastern Mediterranean Sea (Mersin Bay), in terms of sex and seasonal variables. Na, Mg, P, K, and Ca levels in the muscle tissues of pufferfish range from 1848.4 to 16495.

Tetrodotoxin levels of three pufferfish species (Lagocephalus sp.) caught in the North-Eastern Mediterranean sea.

Tetrodotoxin (TTX) levels in Lagocephalus sceleratus (Silverstripe blaasop), Lagocephalus spadiceus (Half-smooth golden pufferfish) and Lagocephalus suezensis (Suez puffer) caught in Mersin Bay in the Northeastern Mediterranean Sea were analysed using Q-TOF LC/MS. Pufferfish were caught using trawl fishing, longlining and fishing line from December 2015 to October 2016. The TTX changes in the gonads, livers, intestines, skins and muscle tissues were evaluated according to sex and season.

First report on TTX levels of the yellow spotted pufferfish (Torquigener flavimaculosus) in the Mediterranean Sea.

The differences of tetrodotoxin (TTX) levels in various parts of pufferfish (Torquigener flavimaculosus) were examined in conjunction with the seasonal and sexual variations. The TTX levels in gonads, liver, intestines, skin and muscle tissue were determined using the Q-TOF LC/MS. Instrumental analysis revealed that all examined tissues from T.

Tetrodotoxin levels in pufferfish (Lagocephalus sceleratus) caught in the Northeastern Mediterranean Sea.

The toxicity of tetrodotoxin (TTX) in pufferfish (Lagocephalus sceleratus) from Mersin Bay in the Northeastern Mediterranean Sea was measured using a mouse bioassay (MBA) and LC-MS-MS. Pufferfish were caught by trawl fishing, longlining and fishing line from December 2012 to October 2013. Changes in the levels of TTX in the gonads, livers, intestines, skins and muscles as a function of season and sex were determined.

The influences of fish infusion broth on the biogenic amines formation by lactic acid bacteria.

The influences of fish infusion decarboxylase broth (IDB) on biogenic amines (BA) formation by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were investigated. BA productions by single LAB strains were tested in five different fish (anchovy, mackerel, white shark, sardine and gilthead seabream) IDB. The result of the study showed that significant differences in ammonia (AMN) and BA production were observed among the LAB strains in fish IDB (p < 0.

The effects of season and sex in the metal levels of mature common cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) in Mersin Bay, Northeastern Mediterranean.
