Article Synopsis
  • The study highlights the importance of fish excreta in aquaponics farming, focusing on how to effectively use both dissolved and particulate-bound nutrients.
  • A novel treatment system was developed to process fish solids, creating a liquid fertilizer that could reduce the risk of biofouling in hydroponic setups.
  • Results indicate that while crop yields from aquaponic treatments were lower than those using commercial solutions, the nutrient content in the plants showed that aquaponic methods provided essential minerals often lacking in traditional nutrient solutions.

Although the toxic metal Cd is an established human nephrotoxin, little is known about the role that interactions with plasma constitutents play in determining its mammalian target organs. To gain insight, a Cd-human serum albumin (HSA) complex was analyzed on a system consisting of size exclusion chromatography (SEC) coupled on-line to a flame atomic absorption spectrometer (FAAS). Using phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.
