Fatty acid composition of Nile tilapia Orechromis niloticus muscles: A comparative study with commercially important tropical freshwater fish in Philippines
(AquaFish Collaborative Research Support Program, 2008)
Six tropical freshwater species were collected from Philippines in order to study the characteristic of polyunsaturated fatty acids distributions. 16:0 and 18: l n-9 were the predominant saturated fatty acid (SFA) and ...
A survey of stock of the donkey’s ear abalone, Haliotis asinina L. in the Sagay Marine Reserve, Philippines: Evaluating the effectiveness of marine protected area enforcement
(Elsevier, 2004)
Marine protected areas (MPA) are tools for integrated coastal management (ICM); they have gained worldwide acceptance as a strategy for resource restoration and conservation. Research must gauge the effectiveness of MPA ...
