Določanje mikrobnih združb na mikroplastiki v morski vodi in v školjkah
Sredozemsko morje predstavlja eno najbolj prizadetih območij onesnaženja s plastičnimi polimeri. Mikroplastiko lahko zaradi majhnosti zaužijejo morski organizmi, ki so del prehrane ljudi. Posledično predstavljajo delci mikroplastike tveganje za prenos kemijskih in mikrobioloških onesnaževal. V sklopu naloge smo vzorčili morsko vodo in školjke na tr...
Weaning, food allergens and potential risk factors for delayed introduction: a cross-sectional study.
...Published in International journal of food sciences and nutrition
Much evidence supports that the early introduction of allergenic foods in weaning is useful to prevent food allergies later in life. Real life is often different, with factors related to mothers and infants. Our study aimed to deepen the timing of introducing the foods responsible for most allergic reactions during the weaning and why parents delay...
Stable isotopes reveal intertidal fish and crabs use bivalve farms as foraging habitat in Puget Sound, Washington
Published in Frontiers in Marine Science
Bivalves such as oysters and clams have been farmed in intertidal zones across the Puget Sound region of the Salish Sea for thousands of years. The variety of gear types used on bivalve farms creates complex vertical structure and attachment points for aquatic epiphytes and invertebrates which increases habitat structural complexity, but may alter ...
Balancing conflict and opportunity - spatial planning of shellfish and macroalgae culture systems in a heavily trafficke...
Published in Frontiers in Marine Science
Ocean-based industries like shipping, aquaculture, and wind energy are growing at an unprecedented rate resulting in challenges related to siting and environmental management. As marine aquaculture and other ocean-based industries continue to expand, robust marine spatial planning analyses that reconcile existing ocean uses and integrate pertinent ...
Comparative study of domoic acid accumulation, isomer content and associated digestive subcellular processes in five mar...
Despite the deleterious effects of the phycotoxin domoic acid (DA) on human health, and the permanent threat of blooms of the toxic Pseudo-nitzschia sp. over commercially important fishery-resources, knowledge regarding the physiological mechanisms behind the profound differences in accumulation and depuration of this toxin in contaminated inverteb...
2022- Monitoring dioxins, PCBs, flame retardants and PFAS in agricultural and fishery products
On behalf of the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), Wageningen Food Safety Research (WFSR) analyses samples of agricultural products of animal origin for dioxins, PCBs, brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and poly- and perfluorinated alkyl substances (PFASs). This includes meat, milk, eggs and fish. The samples are taken at the ...
Production of partially prepared food and ready-cooked foods from the meat of Azov Sea clams
Published in E3S Web of Conferences
The paper presents the results of studies of the technochemical composition and nutritional value of meat of four species of clams found in the Azov Sea: Anadara kagoshimensis (Tokunaga, 1906), Cerastoderma glaucum (Bruguière, 1789), Chamelea gallina (Linne, 1758) and Donax trunculus (Linnaeus, 1758). It is noted that almost the entire world catch,...
Consumption of Bivalve Shellfish in French Coastal Populations: Data for Acute and Chronic Exposure Assessment.
Published in Journal of food protection
Shellfish are a source of nutrients but are also a matter of concern in terms of food safety due to natural contaminants such as phycotoxins or anthropogenic contaminants including microbial agents and heavy metals. However, data related to consumption for each mollusk species are scarce and missing for appropriate exposure calculation. The objecti...
Seasonal Single-Site Sampling Reveals Large Diversity of Marine Algal Toxins in Coastal Waters and Shellfish of New Cale...
Algal toxins pose a serious threat to human and coastal ecosystem health, even if their potential impacts are poorly documented in New Caledonia (NC). In this survey, bivalves and seawater (concentrated through passive samplers) from bays surrounding Noumea, NC, collected during the warm and cold seasons were analyzed for algal toxins using a multi...
