Acute nitrite toxicity and methemoglobinemia in juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1987)
Nitrite was about 55 times more toxic to milkfish juveniles in fresh water than in 16% brackish water: the 48-h median lethal concentrations were 12 mg NO<sub>2-</sub>N/l (95% confidence limit=7.4–19.6) and 675 mg ...
Effects of temperature on behavior, growth, development and survival in young milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal)
(Elsevier, 1983)
Effects of three temperature treatments on activity, feeding, growth, development and survival of young milkfish (Chanos chanos) were investigated. Low temperature (<22.6°C) and hypoxial condition (<1 ppm O2) decreased ...
The effect of starvation and subsequent feeding on the hepatocytes of Chanos chanos (Forsskal) fingerlings and fry
(Academic Press, 1983)
Excised liver sections of the milkfish, Chanos chanos, fry and fingerlings were studied by transmission electron microscopy. The hepatocytes underwent marked ultrastructural alterations in response to food deprivation of ...
The effect of dietary protein-energy levels on growth and metabolism of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
<ol><li>Groups of milkfish juveniles (mean weight, 2.8 g) were fed diets containing white fishmeal and gelatin with varying protein-energy to total metabolizable energy (PE:TME) ratios.</li><li>Amino acids were incorporated ...
Critical factors influencing survival and hatching of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs during simulated transport
(Elsevier, 1988)
The effects of loading density, length of transit time, temperature and salinity on milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs during simulated transport were examined. Rocking motion approximating conditions of transport of ...
The milkfish seed resources survey in Sri Lanka: Status, problems and recommendations
(Ministry of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, Sri Lanka, 1986)
A summary is provided of information concerning the milkfish (Chanos chanos) seed resources of Sri Lanka, highlighting problems related to seed collection. Various recommendations are made to overcome these problems and ...
Histopathological response of milkfish Chanos chanos Forsskal fingerlings to potassium permanganate
(Japanese Society of Fish Pathology, 1986)
Static 96 h bioassays were conducted on milkfish fingerlings at concentrations ranging from 1.00 to 1.80 mg/l KMnO<sub>4</sub>. Histopathological analyses of gills, liver, and kidney tissues revealed significant changes ...
Studies on the digestive proteases of the milkfish Chanos chanos
(Springer, 1982)
The protease activity of crude extracts from various organs of the digestive tract of two groups of milkfish was determined. One group (Sample A) derived their food from ponds that had predominantly unicellular algae while ...
Effect of different diets on the ultrastructure of hepatocytes of Chanos chanos fry (Chanidae: Teleostei): An electron microscopic and morphometric analysis
(Springer-Verlag, 1983)
The hepatocytes of milkfish fry offered different artificial diets (carbohydrate-, lipid-, protein-oriented) and live food (Artemia spp., Brachionus plicatilis) differ considerably both qualitatively and quantitatively as ...
On the visual feeding of milkfish larvae and juveniles in captivity
(The Japanese Society of Scientific Fisheries, 1980)
Feeding of milkfish (Chanos chanos) larvae and juveniles on Artemia nauplii in captivity was observed. The retinae of the larvae were observed histologically. Milkfish larvae could not take food in the dark. The juveniles ...
