Clean &Unclean Meats Clean & Unclean Meats God expects all who desire to have a relationship with Him to live holy lives (Exodus 19:6; 1 Peter 1:15). The Bible says following God’s instructions regarding the meat we eat is one aspect of living a holy life (Leviticus 11:44-47). Modern research indicates that there are health benets to eating only the meat of animals approved by God and avoiding those He labels as unclean. Here is a summation of the clean (acceptable to eat) and unclean (not acceptable to eat) animals found in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14.

  • Lateral Muscle Development of the Pacific Bluefin Tuna, Thunnus Thynnus Orientalis, from Juvenile to Young Adult Stage Under Culture Condition
    SUISANZOSHOKU 49(1), 23-28 (2001) Lateral Muscle Development of the Pacific Bluefin Tuna, Thunnus thynnus orientalis, from Juvenile to Young Adult Stage under Culture Condition Nobuhiro HATTom*1, Shigeru MIYASHITA*1, Yoshifumi SAWADA*2, Keitaro KATO*1, Toshiro NASU*1, Tokihiko OicADA*2, Osamu MURATA*1, and Hidemi KUMAI*1 (Accepted December 5, 2000) Abstract: The volume of lateral muscle, cross-sectional area of red and white fibers, and the number of fibers were examined for artificially hatched Bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus orientalis, from juvenile to young adult stage within the size range of 19.5-163.0 mm body length (BL). The red and white muscle volumes increased exponentially with BL. At a size larger than 80.0 mm BL, both the volume increases were significantly accelerated. The proportion of red muscle volume in the total lateral muscle volume slightly increased with BL. The cross-sectional area and the total num - ber of red and white fibers at the point of maximum body height increased in the BL range exam -ined. The small red fibers(<a100μm2 in size)of a cross-sectional area gradually disappeared with the growth of BL. In contrast, there existed the white small fibers(200-300μm2 in size)at all body sizes. Increases of both fiber numbers were approximately accelerated at sizes larger than 85 mm BL. The size of 80-85 mm BL, at which the phase change of muscle development occurred, corre -sponded to the transitional stage from juvenile to young adult. Key words: Thunnus thynnus orientalis; ontogenetic development; lateral muscle The seedstock production of the Pacific bluefin fish reach the body length (BL) of 80 to 160 tuna has developed remarkably in recent years mm.

  • Hormone-Induced Spawning of Cultured Tropical Finfishes
    ADVANCES IN TROPICAL AQUACULTURE. Tahiti, Feb. 20 - March 4 1989 AQUACOP 1FREMER Acres de Colloque 9 pp. 519 F39 49 Hormone-induced spawning of cultured tropical finfishes C.L. MARTE Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Genie. Aquaculture Department, Tig- bauan, ILOILO, Philippines Abstract — Commercially important tropical freshwater and marine finfishes are commonly spawned with pituitary homogenate, human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and semi-purified fish gonadotropins. These preparations are often adminis- tered in two doses, a lower priming dose followed a few hours later by a higher resolving dose. Interval between the first and second injections may vary from 3 - 24 hours depending on the species. Variable doses are used even for the same species and may be due to variable potencies of the gonadotropin preparations. Synthetic analogues of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRHa) are becoming widely used for inducing ovulation and spawning in a variety of teleosts. For marine species such as milkfish, mullet, sea bass, and rabbitfish, a single LHRHa injection or pellet implant appears to be effective. Multiple spawnings of sea bass have also been obtained following a single injection or pellet implant of a high dose of LHRHa. In a number of freshwater fishes such as the cyprinids, LHRHa alone however has limited efficacy. Standardized methods using LHRHa together with the dopamine antagonists pimozide, domperidone and reserpine have been developed for various species of carps. The technique may also be applicable for spawning marine teleosts that may not respond to LHRHa alone or where a high dose of the peptide is required. Although natural spawning is the preferred method for breeding cultivated fish, induced spawning may be necessary to control timing and synchrony of egg production for practical reasons.

  • Activity and Food Choice of Piscivorous Perch (Perca Fluviatilis)
    Freshwater Biology (2002) 47, 2370–2379 Activity and food choice of piscivorous perch (Perca fluviatilis) in a eutrophic shallow lake: a radio-telemetry study LENE JACOBSEN, SØREN BERG, MADS BROBERG, NIELS JEPSEN and CHRISTIAN SKOV Danish Institute for Fisheries Research, Department of Inland Fisheries, Vejlsøvej, Silkeborg, Denmark SUMMARY 1. Radio transmitters were implanted in large perch (27–37 cm) in a shallow lake in Denmark. Between 6 and 13 perch were tracked every 3 h for 24-h periods twice (summer) or once a month (winter) from August 1997 to July 1998. Activity levels were recorded as minimum distance moved per hour. 2. No significant differences in activity levels of individual fish were observed. 3. Highest activities were observed at daytime with peaks at dawn and dusk or midday. This diel pattern was most pronounced from October to April, whereas diel variations were less in the summer months, with no peaks occurring in midsummer. The general lack of activity at night supports the idea that perch is a visually oriented forager. 4. There was no significant relationship between daytime activity during the year and temperature or day length, but nighttime activity was correlated with temperature. In contrast with previous findings, activity levels varied little seasonally, except for high activity levels that occurred concomitantly with high temperatures in August. Instead, we found a significant relationship between the total distances moved per day and temperature, indicating that perch moved at the same average speed in the wintertime, but did so for shorter periods than in summer because of shorter day lengths. 5.

  • Best Fish for Your Health and the Sea's
    Nova In Vitro Fertilization Best Fish for Your Health and the Sea's By The Green Guide Editors (National Geographic) Fish provide essential nutrients and fatty acids—especially for developing bodies and brains and make a perfect protein-filled, lean meal whether grilled, baked, poached or served as sushi. Yet overfishing, habitat loss and declining water quality have wreaked havoc on many fish populations. Furthermore, many are contaminated with brain-damaging mercury and other toxic chemicals. If the pickings appear slim, check out our "Yes" fish where you'll find many options available. As for our "Sometimes" fish, these may be eaten occasionally, while "No" fish should be avoided entirely. Photograph Courtesy Shutterstock Images Warnings are based on populations of highest concern (children and women who are pregnant, nursing or of childbearing age). To learn which fish from local water bodies are safe to eat, call your state department of health, or see www.epa.gov/waterscience/fish. Besides mercury, toxins can include PCBs, dioxins and pesticides. In compiling this list, the Green Guide referred to resources at the web sites of the Food and Drug Administration, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Environmental Working Group, Environmental Defense Foundation and Oceana among others.
