Ascorbic Acid In Aquatic Organisms: Status and Perspectives
Ascorbic Acid In Aquatic Organisms: Status and Perspectives Books
Product Description
We are just beginning to learn the importance of vitamin C in the health of natural and man-made ecosystems. Synthesis of ascorbic acid is well understood, but algae as the only source of ascorbate in the aquatic food pyramid has not been explored. There is an expanding field of the culture of aquatic organisms that demand formulated feeds to best meet their requirements for health, growth, and reproduction. With over 100 species now cultured for human consumption, the question arises as to whether we have reliable in rank for the nutritional needs for vitamin C for even a small percentage of these organisms. A comprehensive approach to the role of vitamin C at the cellular level as well as in the aquatic food chains, this book discusses growth and reproduction, disease resistance, and toxicology of aquatic organisms. Ascorbic Acid in Aquatic Organisms was written as the offshoot of a unique session on aquatic organisms and matter-of-fact aquaculture at the 1998 World Aquaculture Society (WAS) meeting. This book reviews the research already available and identifies new directions for research. It is a unique combination of excellent nutrition research, ecology, and matter-of-fact aquaculture (for instance brine shrimp enhancement). This interdisciplinary volume will fascinate to marine fish culturists, aquatic biologists, comparative and evolutionary cellular physiologists, and environmental toxicologists.
