“…The present study employed the TFDA-recommended analytical method for detecting trace quinolone residues [14] as well as a method for detecting traces of organophosphorus insecticide developed by the European Committee for Standardization, known as the QuEChERS approach [2,9]. To validate aquatic samples for chemical analysis, the TFDA [5,18] proposed a recovery rate that is acceptable at 70-120% with relative standard deviation (RSD) < 20%, acceptable at 60-125% with RSD < 30%, and acceptable at 50-125% with RSD < 35% for chemical residues in food matrices that are identified in the 0.01-0.1, 0.001-0.01, and < 0.001 mg/kg ranges, respectively. In this study's results, residues of quinolones and organophosphorus insecticides that were detected in the range of 0.01-0.1 mg/kg exhibited a recovery rate of 96.35-100.76% with RSD < 12% (Table S1) and 95.47-114.53% with RSD < 13% (Table S2), respectively.…”

“…After 2000, changes in consumption patterns and competition from global trade have forced Taiwan's government to implement safety management policies for aquaculture, with a focus on food sanitation [4]. Despite limited land use, Taiwan's aquaculture industry has produced world-class water fisheries and seafood producers [5][6][7]. Considering that Taiwan has few inherent economic advantages, this performance in the area of marine production is remarkable.…”

“…Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing animal food production through worldwide in recent centuries [5]. Besides their good taste, there is an upsurge in the worldwide need for essential proteins, which has required intense expansion of aquaculture, along with the use of antibiotics being increasingly to treat aquatic animal diseases.…”

Quinolone and Organophosphorus Insecticide Residues in Bivalves and Their Associated Risks in Taiwan

Bivalves, such as freshwater clams (Corbicula fluminea) and hard clams (Meretrix lusoria), are the most extensive and widely grown shellfish in land-based ponds in Taiwan. However, few studies have examined the contamination of bivalves by quinolone and organophosphorus insecticides. Thus, we adapted an established procedure to analyze 8 quinolones and 12 organophosphorus insecticides using liquid and gas chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. Surveys in Taiwan have not noted high residual levels of these chemicals in bivalve tissues. A total of 58 samples of freshwater or hard clams were obtained from Taiwanese aquafarms. We identified 0.03 mg/kg of enrofloxacin in one freshwater clam, 0.024 mg/kg of flumequine in one freshwater clam, 0.02 mg/kg of flumequine in one hard clam, 0.05 mg/kg of chlorpyrifos in one freshwater clam, 0.03 mg/kg of chlorpyrifos in one hard clam, and 0.02 mg/kg of trichlorfon in one hard clam. The results indicated that 5.17% of the samples had quinolone insecticide residues and 5.17% had organophosphorus residues. However, the estimated daily intake (EDI)/acceptable daily intake quotient (ADI) indicated no significant risk and no immediate health risk from the consumption of bivalves. These results provide a reference for the food-safety screening of veterinary drugs and pesticides in aquatic animals. Aquatic products should be frequently screened for residues of prohibited chemicals to safeguard human health.

“…Inversely proportional to the poverty that occurs, it turns out that the fishing industry which is owned by the coastal region is precisely one of the sectors of the food industry that is experiencing the fastest development (Bostock et al, 2010;Ting et al, 2015). This shows that the coastal area with the fisheries sector has significant potential if it can be managed properly.…”

The pendulum of the development at the global level moves to the extent of collaborative work between government, society and third parties. Today, in Indonesia a collaboration model is also implemented with the aim of presenting long-standing welfare in coastal areas. The poverty that surrounds coastal communities is an anomaly in the midst of the abundance of wealth stored in the sea of Indonesia. The Regional Government of Tangerang Regency encourages to collaborate with external parties to resolve the troubles. This article tries to use the modified Triple-Helix model as an analytical framework, which is useful for knowing the role of actors involved in creating development innovation. This study uses qualitative methods to see and find out how political, social, and academic actors interact and integrate into overcoming public problems that arise from the perspective of collaborative governance. The findings of the study found, first, collaborative work is useful to improve governance, second, to provide opportunities for actors to find effective solutions, and thirdly, to increase trust between government and citizens. This article argues that the success of collaborative work depends on the synergy between actors and the extent to which each program can demonstrate its sustainability.

“…They try to measure responsible farming practices instead of focus on the central rationale of sustainability that is the capacity of a system persists in time. Some articles using indicators of sustainability to assess aquaculture systems have been published (Dalsgaard et al, 1995;Lightfoot et al, 1996;Dalsgaard and Oficial, 1997;Caffey et al, 2001;González et al, 2003;Stevenson et al, 2005;Tipraqsa et al, 2007;Bergquist, 2007;O'Ryan and Pereira, 2015;Chowdhury et al, 2015;Ting et al 2015, Moura et al, 2016. However, most of the indicators proposed are qualitative, restricted to environmental dimension, specific regions, species or systems, must be obtained from secondary data (which often are not available), or were developed to help the consumer decisions.…”

Aquaculture is one of the fastest-growing food-producing sectors worldwide, making it desirable to assess the sustainability of aquaculture systems. The objective of this study was to develop a portfolio of quantitative indicators of economic, environmental and social sustainability to assess different aquaculture systems. The indicators were developed from 2003 to 2016, combining top-down and bottom-up methods, together with practical observations in experimental and commercial aquaculture facilities. A total of 56 economic (14), environmental (22) and social (20) indicators are proposed. Economic sustainability indicators reveal the degree of efficiency in using financial resources, the economic feasibility, resilience, and the capacity to absorb negative external costs and to generate funds for reinvestment. Environmental indicators reflect the use of natural resources, the efficiency in using resources, the release of pollutants and unused byproducts, and the risk of reducing biodiversity. Social sustainability indicators reflect the capacity to generate benefits for local communities, including jobs and food security, equitable income distribution, equality of opportunity, and inclusion of vulnerable populations. The indicators thus developed can be used on farm, regional, global or sectorial scales. They are quantitative, broad, scientifically sound, easy to understand and interpret, feasible to obtain on farms or on research stations, and permit comparison at different scales of space and time. Thus, they can be used to assess production systems and to compare different experimental treatments in research experiments. They also can be used by certifying organizations, investors, and policymakers. They allow performing diagnostics, identifying strengths and weaknesses, setting goals and determining actions, and assessing the effectiveness of actions and public policies.
