272 results about "Tuna" patented technology

A tuna (also called tunny) is a saltwater fish that belongs to the tribe Thunnini, a subgrouping of the Scombridae (mackerel) family. The Thunnini comprise 15 species across five genera, the sizes of which vary greatly, ranging from the bullet tuna (max. length: 50 cm (1.6 ft), weight: 1.8 kg (4 lb)) up to the Atlantic bluefin tuna (max. length: 4.6 m (15 ft), weight: 684 kg (1,508 lb)). The bluefin averages 2 m (6.6 ft), and is believed to live up to 50 years.

Method for preparing antihypertensive peptides through enzymolysis of ground meat proteins of tuna

The invention discloses a method for preparing antihypertensive peptides through enzymolysis of ground meat proteins of a tuna. The method comprises the steps of: (1) regarding the ground meat of the tuna as the raw material, mixing and homogenizing the raw material and a buffer solution according to a weight/volume ratio of 1 g: 3-5 ml, and then adjusting the pH value to 9.5-10 to obtain a mixed solution; (2) heating the mixed solution to 55-60 DEG C for pre-heating, and adding alcalase according to 1.0%-1.5% of the raw material for enzymolysis at an enzymolysis temperature of 55-60 DEG C for 4-6 h; and (3) performing enzyme deactivation on the obtained enzymolysis product to obtain an enzymolysis solution and then enabling the enzymolysis solution to sequentially suffer from ultrafiltration, desalination, freeze drying and chromatography to obtain the antihypertensive peptides. The method for preparing the antihypertensive peptides through the enzymolysis of the ground meat proteins of the tuna, disclosed by the invention, has the advantages of abundant source of the raw material, low price, simple preparation process, relatively strong activity of the prepared antihypertensive peptides; compared with a chemosynthetic ACE (Angiotensin Converting Enzyme) inhibitor, the ACEP (ACE Inhibitive Bioactive Peptide) prepared through enzymolysis of the ground meat of the tuna has the advantages of being safe and nontoxic, specific in antihypertensive efficacy, easy to digest and absorb and the like.

Germ cell marker using fish vasa gene

ActiveUS8222385B2Easily successEasily failureTissue cultureImmunoglobulinsOogoniumChub mackerel
In order to examine whether or not a germ cell derived from a donor fish, which has been transplanted into a recipient fish of a different species by a surrogate fish technique, grows or matures in the gonad of the recipient fish, it is necessary to use, as an indicator, a trait that is specifically expressed in the germ cell and can be used to distinguish the recipient fish from the donor fish. Vasa gene, which is a germ cell-specific gene, is specific to a primordial germ cell and a spermatogonium / an oogonium, and it is not expressed in a somatic cell. In the present invention, the Vasa gene sequences of a tuna, a chub mackerel, a spotted mackerel, an eastern little tuna, and a drumfish are determined, and the expression of such gene is used as a marker for a germ cell. In addition, according to the present invention, it is possible to specifically detect only a tuna Vasa gene in Vasa gene sequences that are highly conserved in fishes, without sequencing. Thus, a tuna-derived germ cell can be reliably and simply identified in the gonad of the recipient fish. As a result, the growth or breeding of tuna can be carried out with good efficiency. Moreover, utilizing the aforementioned findings, even in a case in which not only a tuna but also another Perciformes fish is used as a donor, a germ cell derived from the donor fish can be efficiently detected from the gonad of a recipient fish of a different species.

Equipment for migratory fish breeding

To simultaneously achieve: (i) enabling migratory fish such as tuna to have safe and sufficient exercises without colliding the wall, (ii) allowing the coexistence of adult fish with juvenile fish and fry fish, (iii) largely saving the driving power of a pump for water purification, and (iv) laborsaving in washing and regenerating a filtration unit for removing waste materials. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] A system for feeding migratory fish the inside of which is divided into a circular feeding tank (1) and a notched circular water-purification tank (3) in a circular shape with a missing and in which the feeding tank and the water-purification tank are located in close contact with each other like spectacles, characterized in that: the inside of the feeding tank is partitioned with a net sheet (16) into migration lanes for adult fish, juvenile fish and fry fish (11, 12, 13) respectively; circulation flows (14) in the same direction are flown in the individual lanes; the water-purification tank is provided with a filtration unit (5) and purified water having been filtered is stored therein; and these tanks (1, 3) are connected to each other via a water channel (15), by which the water in the feeding tank is supplied into the filtration unit due to the dynamic pressureof the circulation flows, and a circulation unit (4), by which the water in the water-purification tank is jetted into the feeding tank to form the circulation flows, and thus have substantially the same water levels.
