Freshness assessment of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) by machine vision based on gill and eye color changes
2013
Abstract The fish freshness was evaluated using machine vision technique through color changes of eyes and gills of farmed and wild gilthead sea bream ( Sparus aurata ), being employed lightness ( L * ), redness ( a * ), yellowness ( b * ), chroma ( c * ), and total color difference (Δ E ) parameters during fish ice storage. A digital color imaging system, calibrated to provide accurate CIELAB color measurements, was employed to record the visual characteristics of eyes and gills. The region of interest was automatically selected using a computer program developed in MATLAB software. L * , b * , and Δ E of eyes increased with storage time, while c * decreased. The a * parameter of fish eyes…
Experimental study on the influence of paper and pulp mill effluent on the gill parasite communities of roach (Rutilus rutilus)
1996
SUMMARYRoach (n= 81) caught on 23 May, 1992 from oligotrophic, unpolluted Lake Peurunka were kept in cages over a 2-week period before moving half of the fish to nearby Lake Vatia, which is influenced by pulp mill effluents. Before moving the fish gill parasites were examined from 9 fish; 5Dactylogyrusspecies,Gyrodactylussp. andParadiplozoon homoionwere found, the main components of the infracommunities being dactylogyrids. Afterwards, 5 fish from each lake were studied weekly between 1 July and 17 August. Metazoan parasites were recorded from gill arches divided into 4 sections along the dorso-ventral axis.D. crucifer, D. nanus, D. micracanthusandD. suecicusoccurred in both lakes throughou…
