Sea Cucumbers
Sea Cucumbers: Aquaculture, Biology and Ecology presents the latest scientific research on sea cucumbers and their ecological and nutritional benefits. This practical reference helps professionals and students understand basic biology and farming methods by presenting the basic knowledge needed to not only promote aquaculture and ?sheries management in different environments, but to also improve the management of sea cucumber health and successful aquaculture operations. Information in this book includes a variety of sea cucumber species, population status, aquaculture development, and the explored bene?ts of sea cucumbers in unique regions, including Egypt, Turkey, Iran and Arabian countries of the Persian Gulf. - Covers the recent literature surrounding the biology and ecology of sea cucumbers - Highlights the medicinal and pharmaceutical values of sea cucumbers - Presents the advantages of developing sea cucumber farming as a viable aquaculture enterprise - Includes practical case studies of sea cucumber aquaculture
Commercially important sea cucumbers of the world
Sea cucumbers are harvested and traded in more than 90 countries worldwide. They are exploited in industrial and small-scale fisheries, nearly from pole to pole, especially in the tropics. In some fisheries, more than 20 species are exploited by fishers. Fishers in general know how to distinguish the species they harvest, often identifying them with local names. For fishery officers and even biologists, recognizing sea cucumber species remains daunting however as they are confronted only with the final product: bêche-de-mer (or trepang) which is the processed (cooked and dried) product. This field guide offers a tool for fishery managers, scientists, trade officers and industry workers to r...
Sea Cucumbers Are Brainless!
The body of a sea cucumber doesn't have many parts. Yet sea cucumbers help to clean the world's ocean floors and even help to reduce the effects of global warming. They do all of this without a brain. Exploring the life cycle of this invertebrate, this book covers some of the odd qualities of a sea cucumber, including the ability to expel part of its own intestine in order to escape predators. Sea cucumber abilities will boggle your readers' minds.
The Sea Cucumber Apostichopus japonicus
While sea cucumber is one of China's and Asia's most prized seafoods, and aquaculture programs are being developed on a huge commercial scale, Chinese expertise and knowledge in this area has not been well disseminated worldwide. The Sea Cucumber Apostichopus japonicus is the first book to bridge this gap by compiling key information related to hatchery and aquaculture techniques, nutritional and medical values, markets, and trade flow of the number one sea cucumber species. It summarizes the historical and most recent developments in the trade and aquaculture of Apostichopus japonicus, as well as important aspects of its anatomy, population dynamics, reproduction, development, physiology, a...
Sea Cucumbers
Readers will learn just how amazing sea cucumbers can be. The many species of this ocean invertebrate may not look like other undersea animals, but they have some amazing adaptations and behaviors that help them survive. Without faces, limbs, bones, blood, or a brain, sea cucumbers have incredible ways eating, moving, reproducing, and defending themselves.
Advances in Sea Cucumber Processing Technology and Product Development
Sea cucumbers belong to the Phylum Echinodermata. There are more than 900 recorded species of sea cucumber of which more than 40 are edible. As a food source, sea cucumbers are rich in protein, low in fat, rich in collagen, sulfated polysaccharides, phospholipids, glycolipids, saponins and other functional components. Therefore, sea cucumbers have important nutritional and medicinal value. Growing awareness of these health benefits has promoted growth in marine aquaculture and processing technologies for the development of sea cucumber products for many applications.Novel perspectives of nutritional functions and processing technologies of sea cucumbers are defined in this book. The chemical...
