The quantitative dietary protein requirements of Penaeus monodon juveniles in a controlled environment
(Elsevier, 1983)
Penaeus monodon juveniles (average weight = 1.32 g) were kept in individual 2 l perforated plastic containers, 10 of which were placed in each of the twenty-four 50 l rectangular wooden-glass aquaria supplied with seawater ...
Gonadotropin profiles in serum of milkfish treated with salmon pituitary homogenate
(University of the Philippines Los Baños, 1983)
Serum gonadotropin (GtH) levels were determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA) in adult regressed milkfish injected or implanted with various doses of salmon pituitary homogenate (SPH). Gonadotropin profiles of injected or ...
Uptake and depuration of mercury in the green mussel, Perna viridis Linnaeus (Bivalvia: Mytilidae)
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1985)
P. viridis were exposed to 3.6 ppb, and 100 ppb mercury. The mussels were also fed with algae that had been precontaminated with mercuric acetate to give a final mercury concentration of 10 ppb. Mercury bioaccumulation ...
In vitro effects of fungicides on Haliphthoros philippinensis
(Blackwell Publishing, 1985)
Pure cultures of the fungus Haliphthoros philippinensis isolated from infected Penaeus monodon larvae were exposed for 24 h to varying concentrations of the antifungal agents Benlate, calcium hypochlorite, clotrimazole, ...

An evaluation of three annelids as feed ingredients in formulated diets for juvenile Penaeus monodon
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1985)
The nutritive value of two species of earthworms, Eisenia foetida and Eudrilus euginae and the marine annelid, Nereis sp. in P. monodon juvenila diets was determined in two separate experiments. Percentage weight gain and ...
Preliminary studies in some aspects of amino acid biosynthesis in juveniles of Penaeus monodon Fabricius: II. Partial purification and characterization of muscle L-glutamate dehydrogenase
(The Philippine Biochemical Society, 1980)
A method of partially purifying L-glutamate dehydrogenase, a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of non-essential amino acids, from the muscle of P. monodon juveniles is presented. Enzyme extraction with Tris-acetate buffer, ...
Comparison of various water replenishment and fertilization schemes in brackishwater milkfish ponds
(Blackwell Publishing, 1989)
The study was undertaken to determine the optimum combination of the frequency of water replenishment and fertilization that can yield the highest growth, survival, and gross production of milkfish. Results indicated that ...

Tolerance level and histopathological response of milkfish (Chanos chanos) fingerlings to formalin
(Elsevier, 1989)
Static 96-h bioassays were conducted on milkfish (Chanos chanos ) fingerlings with formalin at concentrations ranging from 50 to 500 ppm. The 24-, 48-, 72-, and 96-h median lethal concentration values (LC50) were 322, 260, ...
