The use of recycled human food wastes and unconsumed leftovers in the aquaculture industry for the partial replacement of commercial manufactured fishmeal-based feeds as a more sustainable and environmentally friendly practice: Recent research and finding
(Corresponding) Petsas A., Vagi M.
Topic:
Food waste
Food waste or leftovers generated by various raw or processed food materials that are not consumed but instead are usually disposed to waste landfills are regarded as a global issue which impacts human health and environmental sustainability. An enormous pressure in disposing of food wastes in...Read more
Environmental genotoxicity and risk assessment in herring (Clupea harengus), Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) and flounder (Platichthys flesus) caught in the Gotland Basins from the Baltic Sea (2010-2017)
(Corresponding) Pažusienė J., Valskienė R., Stankevičiūtė M., Butrimavičienė L., Baršienė J.
Topic:
Biomonitoring
The Gotland Basins are mostly polluted by anthracene, benz(a)anthracene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, cesium-137, DDE, dioxins, mercury and TBT. These chemicals have toxic, carcinogenic and immunotoxic effect to marine animals. After the World War II chemical weapons (CW) were transported from Germany and...Read more

The mitigation of environmental impacts of high polluted effluents from tuna canning industry through eco-efficiency strategies
(Corresponding) Gutierrez M., Etxebarria S., Revilla M., Ramos S., Ciriza A., Sancho L., Zufia J.
Topic:
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Food industry use high volume of water and energy to carry out their processes. Specifically, the fish canning industry generates effluents with high organic and saline loads, which complicates their suitable treatment before discharging to water bodies. The LIFE VERTALIM project has demonstrated...Read more

THE INFLUENCE OF DANUBE RIVER HYDROGRAPHIC AND THERMIC FACTORS ON FISH STOCKS DYNAMICS IN RAZIM-SINOE LAGOON SYSTEM
Chioveanu C., (Corresponding) Simionov I., Patriche N., Tenciu M., Dragomir E., Oprea L.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
The Romanian fishing areas extends over 7000 km2 and 50% of the numbers of authorised fishers conduct their activities in the Danube areas. Inland fisheries are highly important for income, food security and nutrition. Inland peri-rural fisheries face degradation due to climate change. According to...Read more

Liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution-Orbitrap mass spectrometry for the determination of nitrofuran metabolites in fish samples
(Corresponding) Trantopoulos E., Kosma C., Karkabounas A., Boti V., Albanis T.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Nitrofurans (NFs) are synthetic antibiotic drugs employed for the treatment of bacterial diseases in livestock production or as food additives in industrial farming of food-producing animals. The most widely used NFs in veterinary medicine are nitrofurantoin (NFT), furazolidone (FZD), nitrofurazone...Read more

Implications of small-scale fisheries in Istrian waters on cartilaginous species
(Corresponding) Iveša N., Buršić M., Gelli M., Barić O., Filipas R., Castellicchio A., Gavrilović A.
Topic:
Marine environment and coastal management
In small-scale fishing in the northern Adriatic region, a certain percentage of catches consists of cartilaginous fish, and is still considered as bycatch. Despite global concerns about their overfishing, they are still understudied. In order to obtain data on the presence of cartilaginous fish in...Read more
