Polypeptide toxins of about 33 amino acid derived from the Red Sea flat fish Pardachirus mar-moratus and other P. species. LD50, mice 25 mg/kg IP. Pardaxins are ionophores that have neurotoxic and haemolytic effects. The toxins also act as shark repellents. 

Note BRC values are those adopted in 1997 with a conversion to the appropriate units (OSPAR agreement 2005-6). EACs are those agreed by OSPAR in agreement 1997-15 and, in brackets, those proposed in the review and trialled in assessments. BRC for round fish BRC for flat fish Provisional EACs for secondary poisoning, whole fish.

Lc. garvieae, Strep, bovis, and W. cibaria are the dominant bacteria, while after 48 h, W. cibaria, P. pentosaceus, and Lb. plantarum are prevalent, the last species becoming dominant at the end of the fermentation [22]. Gajami-sikhae is a traditional Korean food made with fermented flat fish where Lb. sakei and Leuc. mesenteroid.es are the dominant species among the bacterial community [23].

Some freezing of fish fillets and other processed fish is carried out between or on freezer plates, in an evaporator assembly similar to that shown in Figure 7.9a. Flat cartons of fish and fish fillets are frozen in these horizontal plate freezers. 

Flat pieces of product, such as fish fillets, would suffer a change in shape in a free air blast and are better on a flat moving belt. Here, some of the heat goes direct to the cold air and some by conduction to the belt, which is usually of stainless steel. This tunnel... 

The electricity-producing system of electric fishes is built as follows. A large number of flat cells (about 0.1 mm thick) are stacked like the flat unit cells connected in series in a battery. Each cell has two membranes facing each other. The membrane potentials of the two membranes compensate for each other. In a state of rest, no electrostatic potential difference can be noticed between the two sides of any cell or, consequently, between the ends of the stack. The ends of nerve cells come up to one of the membranes of each cell. When a nervous impulse is applied from outside, this membrane is excited, its membrane potential changes, and its permeability for ions also changes. Thus, the electrical symmetry of the cell is perturbed and a potential difference of about 0.1 V develops between the two sides. Since nervous impulses are applied simultaneously to one of the membranes in each cell, these small potential differences add up, and an appreciable voltage arises between the ends of the stack. 

Kiribati has in fact already begun to export fish from Christmas Island and the fish are flown to Honolulu for sale in retail fish markets. Most of the fish that are exported at the present time are milkfish (Chanos chanos) from the interior lagoon, and spiny lobster from the reef flat - neither of which are ciguatoxic but other reef species make up part of the export. 

When the burner has a single aperture of the diameter of a bristle, a simple jet is produced in the form of a long, thin, conical flame. The bat a-wing, or flattened flame, which the gae forme when it issues from a narrow slit, instead of s round aperture, is muah more appropriate. A similar and equally good flame is produced by a burner with two apertures close to each other, the channels of which are inclined inwards, eo that both the currents of gas cross each other at the base. They then fora a flat flame spreading out in the form of an inverted triangle, and the burner is called a. fish or swallow-tail ... 

Elemental phosphorus has been detected in fish and birds from areas in the vicinity of elemental phosphorus production sites (ERCO of Newfoundland), an arsenal production facility (Pine Bluff Arsenal in Arkansas), and artillery training sites (Eagle River Flats, Anchorage, Alaska). The concentrations of elemental phosphorus in fish and birds collected from these sites are given in Table 5-2. The concentrations of elemental phosphorus in the gizzard content of a dead waterfowl and a dead mallard...
