Aquatic Food Security
Aquatic Food Security explores a range of issues related to this subject using global examples to illustrate both strengths and weaknesses within the existing aquatic food supply chain. This is already an area of vital importance and it will increase in importance as the aquaculture industry grows for the foreseeable future. The book covers topics such as the role of intensification in global aquaculture production, the importance of nutrition and selective breeding, diseases and public health considerations, the role of markets and of processing and retail sectors and quality issues in our global seafood. 5m Books
Moluska: Karakteristik, Potensi dan Pemanfaatan Sebagai Bahan Baku Industri Pangan dan Non Pangan
Buku ini membahas tentang terminologi/definisi, potensi, distribusi dan produksi, komposisi kimia, laju kemunduran mutu, standar dan prospek pemanfaatan baik sebagai bahan baku pangan maupun non pangan beberapa jenis moluska air tawar dan air laut yang umumnya masih belum banyak diketahui oleh masyarakat Indonesia. Moluska yang khusus dibahas yaitu, golongan bivalvia (kijing, kerang bulu, kerang tahu, kerang pisau, kerang pokea, kerang darah, kerang simping, kerang salju, kupang merah), gastropoda (keong ipong-ipong, keong mas, keong pokea, keong macan, lintah laut) dan sefalopoda (cumi-cumi, gurita, sotong). Diharapkan buku ini dapat menambah wawasan bagi pembaca terutama yang mendalami ilmu perikanan dan kelautan.
Pemanfaatan Rumput Laut Sebagai Bahan Baku Kosmetik
Indonesia merupakan Negara kepulauan dengan luas 8.300.000 km2 yang meliputi 1.900.000 km2 daratan dan 6.400.000 km2 lautan dengan garis pantai 110.00 km. Dengan luas laut hampir 2/3 diisi lautan, maka potensi keanekaragaman hayati laut Indonesia sangat besar. Salah satunya adalah melimpahnya rumput laut di Indonesia. Rumput laut tropika merupakan salah satu komoditi ekspor yang potensial untuk dikembangkan. Rumput laut diketahui memiliki kandungan senyawa metabolit primer dan sekunder seperti antioksidan yang tinggi yang dapat mencegah penuaan dan memperbaiki penampilan kulit. Selama ini rumput laut tropika di Indonesia hanya sebatas ekspor mentah saja. Hal ini sangat memprihatinkan menging...
Biology and Ecology of Edible Marine Gastropod Molluscs
This comprehensive volume focuses exclusively on sea snails (or gastropods), which are popular food items and occupy an important role in the commercial shell craft industry. Familiar examples include conchs (highly sought after due to their mild flavor) and escargot, abalone, and periwinkle snails. This book covers the profile (habitat, distribution, morphology, food and feeding, reproduction, conservation status, etc.) of about 180 species of commercial edible marine gastropod molluscs as well as their nutritional values, commercial importance, and pharmaceutical value. Also included is information on their prevalent diseases and parasites. The informative descriptions are presented in an easy-to-read style with neat illustrations.
Seafood Processing
Part of the new IFST Advances in Food Science Series, Seafood Processing: Technology, Quality and Safety covers the whole range of current processes which are applied to seafood, as well as quality and safety aspects. The first part of the book (‘Processing Technologies’) covers primary processing, heating, chilling, freezing, irradiation, traditional preservation methods (salting, drying, smoking, fermentation, etc), frozen surimi and packaging. The subjects of waste management and sustainability issues of fish processing are also covered. In the second part (‘Quality and Safety Issues’), quality and safety analysis, fish and seafood authenticity and risk assessment are included.
Fisheries Processing
The fish processing industry is still far from the levels of scientific and technological development that characterize other food processing oper ations. It has also been slow in finding uses for by-products and processing wastes, compared with the meat and poultry industries. The utilization of fisheries by-products or wastes constitutes an area in which the application of modern techniques could potentially improve profitability. At present, increased attention is being focused on the application of new biotechnological methods to operations related to the seafood industry, with the objective of increasing its general efficiency. Because fish processing operations are commonly carried out...
Seaweed Polysaccharides
Seaweed Polysaccharides: Isolation, Biological, and Biomedical Applications examines the isolation and characterization of algal biopolymers, including a range of new biological and biomedical applications. In recent years, significant developments have been made in algae-based polymers (commonly called polysaccharides), and in biomedical applications such as drug delivery, wound dressings, and tissue engineering. Demand for algae-based polymers is increasing and represent a potential—very inexpensive—resource for these applications. The structure and chemical modification of algal polymers are covered, as well as the biological properties of these materials – including antithrombic, a...
Sulfated Polysaccharides
In the post-genomic era, science is still challenged to explain the biosynthesis of complex polysaccharides and glycoconjugates. Unlike nucleic acids and proteins, the information needed for their biosynthesis is not clearly contained to this day within the genome of the various organisms. This means that no biosynthetic code has been revealed yet. As a result, there will be millions of structurally distinct, functional chemical species at the end of their biosynthesis. This book offers an up-to-date view on sulfated polysaccharide structure and function state of the art in different life kingdoms: bacteria, protista, plantae, fungi and animalia. The structure, activities and current thinking on the interplay between these two vital features (as well as ways to study them) are reviewed in the present book. The growing economical interest in sulfated polysaccharides due to their potential biotechnological use in different areas, such as pharmaceutical and food industries, are also commented on. The information within the chapters adds to other prior available literature; the intention of the authors was to extend and further develop the discussions related to glycobiology.
Biology and Ecology of Groupers
Groupers are fascinating charismatic fishes commonly found in reef habitats around the world that sustain a global multimillionaire fishery. They are an important top predator species and therefore of paramount ecological importance for reef systems' resilience. The book, Biology and Ecology of Groupers is an up-to-date review of the main bio-ecological topics involving worldwide groupers species oriented to the academic community and managers. It covers aspects of classification and phylogenetic relationships, geographical distribution, and life history related characteristics (Section I), including the major threats of groupers populations, case studies of successful management and comments about the future of groupers in our changing world (Section II).
