Changes in the steroid hormone and vitellogenin levels during the gametogenic cycle of the giant tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 1994)The levels of estradiol-17β, and progesterone in the hemolymph, ovaries and hepatopancreas, in relation to the vitellogenin levels of captive female Penaeus monodon, were determined during the gametogenic cycle. Estradiol ... -
Oral delivery in aquaculture: Controlled release of proteins from chitosan-alginate microcapsules
(Aquacultural Engineering Society (AES), 1994)Potentially, the most useful method of fish vaccination is oral administration. However, this technique is presently only partially effective because of the apparent destruction of the vaccine in the fish digestive system, ... -
Effect of pH and ammonia on survival and growth of the early larval stages of Penaeus monodon Fabricius
(Elsevier, 1994)Lethal toxicity tests of ammonia at different pH levels (7, 7.5, 8, and 8.5) and its effect on survival and growth of the early larval stages of Penaeus monodon were determined. An increase in ammonia toxicity when the ... -
