Relationship between weight and linear dimensions of Bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) following fattening on western Mediterranean farms.

This study presents various models based on formulae relating weight and dimensions (length, height and width) of Bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus (L.), fattened in captivity.The main aim of establishing these expressions is to design tools for indirectly predicting the weight of a Bluefin tuna from measurements of one or more dimensions obtained usin

Ultrasound assisted batch operation for the adsorption of hexavalent chromium onto engineered nanobiocomposite

The study demonstrates the comparative retention characteristics of chromium from aqueous environment on iron(III) cellulose nanocomposite bead under conventional (C-ads) and ultrasound assisted (U-ads) batch adsorption operation.Optimization of process parameters was achieved varying pH, contact/sonication time, initial Cr(VI) concentration, adsor
