Tissue Preservation and Total DNA Extraction form Fish Stored at Ambient Temperature Using Buffers Containing High Concentration of Urea

Takashi Asahida, Takanori Kobayashi, Kenji Saitoh et al. · 1 Jan 1996

We have developed a high concentration urea containing buffer (TNES-Urea: 6 or 8M urea; 10mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5; 125mM NaCl; 10mM EDTA; 1% SDS) for DNA extraction by modifying the cell lysis buffer for DNA isolation, and we found this buffer is suitable for long-term preservation of tissue samples from fish at ambient temperatures and…

Strategies for further development of aquatic feeds

Takeshi Watanabe · 1 Apr 2002

The sock abundance of the snow crab Chionoecetes opilio has been estimated based on trawl and pot surveys in Japan. However, the gear efficiency has not been sufficiently measured. As a direct observation method to estimate the population density of the snow crab, the Deep-sea Video Monitoring System on a Towed Sledge (DVMSTS) was developed…

Aquatic animal carotenoids

Takao Matsuno · 1 Oct 2001

Carotenoids are yellow to red isoprenoid polyene pigments; approximately 650 carotenoids are known from bacteria, fungi, plants and animals. They occur not only as free forms but also as esters, glycosides, sulfates and carotenoproteins. A recent discovery of antitumor activity in carotenoids, such as vitamin A and β-carotene, has brought attention to marine carotenoids. This…

Antimicrobial activity of shrimp chitin and chitosan from different treatments and applications of fish preservation

Guo‐Jane Tsai, Wen-Huey Su, Hsing-Chen Chen et al. · 1 Feb 2002

The effects of the deacetylation degree (DD) and preparation methods for chitosan on antimicrobial activity were evaluated. Chemically prepared chitin (CH-chitin) and microbiologically prepared chitin (MO-chitin) were obtained from shrimp shells. The CH-chitin and MO-chitin were further chemically deacetylated to obtain various chitosan products of which their DD ranged from low (47-53%) through medium DD…

Carotenoids as Singlet Oxygen Quenchers in Marine Organisms

Nobuyoshi Shimidzu, Masafumi Goto, Wataru Miki · 1 Jan 1996

To understand the roles of carotenoids as singlet oxygen quenchers in marine organisms, quenching activities of eight major carotenoids, astaxanthin, canthaxanthin, β-carotene, zeaxanthin, lutein, tunaxanthin, fucoxanthin and halocynthiaxanthin were examined according to the method using a thermodissociable endoperoxide of 1, 4-dimethylnaphthalene as a singlet oxygen generator. The second-order rate constant for the singlet oxygen quenching…
