The in situ and in vitro rate of lipid peroxidation of hearts were determined in two groups of pigs which had been fed diets which differed only in fatty acid composition for 8 weeks. During the dietary period venous plasma levels of malondialdehyde and lipofuscin were not higher in pigs receiving the highly unsaturated fatty acid-containing mackerel oil than those receiving lard fat. Malondialdehyde was produced in the coronary system of the mackerel oil fed animals. After the heart was subjected to a sequence of short periods of ischaemia (5 min) and reperfusion (10 min), myocardial malondialdehyde production in the mackerel oil fed pigs did not increase. Contribution of prostaglandin synthesis products to myocardial malondialdehyde formation is probably of minor importance. Recovery of regional heart function after the ischaemic periods was similar for both dietary groups. In the phospholipids of sarcolemmal preparations isolated from the left ventricle of mackerel oil fed animals 18:2 n-6 and 20:4 n-6 were partially replaced by 20:5 n-3 and 22:6 n-3. Ischaemia-reperfusion did not alter sarcolemmal fatty acid composition and Ca2+ pumping ATPase activity. Sarcolemmal membrane from mackerel oil fed pigs exposed in vitro to a free radical generating system showed a higher malondialdehyde production than that from lard fat fed pigs. Thus, in spite of the increased susceptibility of heart membranes to free radical generated peroxidation in mackerel oil fed animals, recovery of left ventricular function was similar following multiple short-term periods of ischaemia.

In the North Sea, offshore oil and gas (O&G) platforms must be totally removed through decommissioning at the end of their productive life. However, the role of O&G platforms in marine ecosystems, especially for fish assemblages, is not well enough defined yet. Here, we document the association between an O&G platform in the North Sea and the fish assemblages along a distance gradient of 1-600 m from the platform.

This research aimed to evaluate the use of edible coating from a combination of liquid smoke and turmeric extract as a preservative for mackerel at room temperature. Liquid smoke was obtained from the pyrolysis of oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) at a temperature of 380 °C and purified by distillation at 190 °C. Liquid smoke with a concentration of 3% was combined with turmeric extract at a ratio of 2, 4, 6, and 8 g/L (CLS 2:1, CLS 4:1, CLS 6:1 and CLS 8:1).

The current study had aimed to assess the long-term dietary supplementation with Melaleucae aetheroleum, tea tree essential oil (TTO). The impact on growth performance, biochemical indices, immune function, oxidant/antioxidant activity, gene expression, histopathology, and resistance against Aeromonas sobria in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was investigated. Four groups (with five replicates; G1 (control group, G2, G3, and G4) of Nile tilapia received diets enriched with TTO (doses of 0.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores using hydrolysis of yellowfin tuna skin waste as an eco-friendly method to produce gelatin, and highlights ultrasound pre-treatment as a way to enhance extraction efficiency.
- Factors like ultrasound amplitude, pre-treatment duration, enzyme concentration, and hydrolysis time were tested to determine optimal conditions for maximizing yield and quality of gelatin, which resulted in specific optimal parameters.
- The final gelatin showed promising properties such as high viscosity, gel strength, emulsifying abilities, antioxidant activity, and good digestibility, marking a step towards sustainable gelatin production from fish waste.
