Water-soluble silicon at 0, 100 and 500 mg/L were placed in aquaculture water, and the water quality indices such as dissolved oxygen content, ammonia nitrogen content and nitrite nitrogen content were measured at different time to analyze their effects on the water quality of tilapia aquaculture...

The in vitro feeding of ticks facilitates the conduction of studies involving the intrinsic vector-pathogen relationship, susceptibility tests, and resistance to acaricides, in addition to mimicking the use of experimental hosts. The objective of this study was to establish an in vitro feeding...

In this work, a portable electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection system based on silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) single photon detector was proposed for the detection of ECL signals on a screen-printed electrode (SPE). This instrument innovatively used SiPM single photon detector to detect the ECL...

In order to explore the trace element composition characteristics of Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis, the composition and distribution of trace elements in 17 statoliths of S. oualaniensis collected in the Nansha islands waters of the South China Sea during March to May by light falling-net vessels in...

The paper presents the results of studies on the effect of ultrafine particles of silicon dioxide (SiO₂) and a complex of essential amino acids (arginine, lysine and methionine) in the diet of carp juveniles on growth, on the amino acid composition of the liver and the chemical composition of fish...

In the present work, the inorganic content of different milk samples is investigated by Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) technique. Milk samples of different animal origin, in liquid, lyophilized powder, and ashed forms were studied using both infrared (1064 nm) and visible (532 nm)...

Chicken cartilage was used for the first time as a raw material for the microwave-assisted synthesis of biochar and activated carbon. Various microwave absorbers, i.e., commercial active carbon, scrap tyres, silicon carbide, and chicken bone-derived biochar, as well as various microwave powers,...

Due to their high hydrophilicity, ceramic silicon carbide (SiC) membranes are suitable for fat separation from raw milk, as alternative to centrifugation. The filtration performance during separation of fat globules (MFGs) from raw milk showed 95% fat separation at 15°C, 93% at 25°C, 88% at 35°C...

Flocculation is an essential process to purify the swine wastewater which generally contains high concentration of suspended colloids and phosphorus. In this study, a novel acidified expanded vermiculite flocculant (A-EV) was developed to efficiently remove phosphorus and suspended solids (SS) from ...

The aim of present study was to evaluation the acute toxicological effects of nanoparticles (NPs) (Titanium dioxide and Silicon dioxide) individual and combined form. The group of fingerlings of the size 8.0 ± 9 cm and weight 15 ± 7 g were selected for study. Three groups of the experimented fish...
