“…Naeem et al (2010) had also reported negative allometric increase in Pb with body weight in O. mykiss, although, Naeem et al (2011) had discovered isometric increase of Pb with body weight in A. nobilis. These differences may be due to interspecific variations (Naeem et al, 2012b).…”

I n flourishing fish industry, one of the major impediment is the cost of fish feed ingredients of the total production budget (Cheikyula et al., 2020) because fish meal is the preferred gold standard component of fish feed but highly expensive and limited in supply (Radhakrishnan et al., 2016). Although, now it is considered both environmentally and ecologically unsustainable and requires to find alternative proteins due to economic pressure on the aquaculture industry (Turchini et al., 2019). For successful aquaculture, there is a need to replace fish meal for the preparation of fish feeds, particularly for omnivorous fish species. Plant based protein sources can cope the need of the time due to increasing fish culture as population is increasing day by day (Daniel, 2018; Zettle et al., 2019). Alternative plant protein sources like pulses, grains and oilseeds are widely used for economic fish feed preparations (Abdel-Warith et al., 2019).

“…In 1957, Muhammad wrote in the Supreme Wisdom that Caucasian people ''just haven't the nature to do good unless they are returned into that which they were taken from.'' 75 Though there was also no further comment in 1957 on how the uncivilized, brutish, violent, and unjust nature of the white man could be changed, the idea that they would be restored to ''that which they were taken from'' seems to indicate that they or their genes could be altered to reflect the inherently good and divine nature of the original black man. Then, in 1967, at the annual Saviour's Day Convention in Chicago celebrating W. D. Fard, Muhammad revealed that evil-whiteness-was inherent even to the original, black man.…”

Science and Technology in Elijah Muhammad’s Nation of Islam

This article explores the centrality of science and technology to religious thought and practice in Elijah Muhammad's Nation of Islam from the 1950s through the 1970s. Tracing the dynamic meanings of scientific knowledge in the context of the postwar United States, the article's central argument is that like other UFO and extraterrestrial religions, the Nation of Islam emphasized scientific, material, and empirical over spiritual and supernatural understandings of religion. It also suggests how members of this new religious movement studied and attempted to live according to the scientific and mathematical principles derived from their prophet's cosmological, ontological, and eschatological teachings on the nature of God, the origins and destiny of the black race, and the beginning and end of white supremacy.

This study compares the chemical composition of cockle (Anadara granosa) and some commercially important marine (Asian seabass Lates calcarifer, grouper Epinephelus bleekeri, hardtail scad Megalaspis cordyla, longtail tuna Thunnus tonggol and Indian mackerel Rastrelliger kanagurta) and freshwater (sutchi catfish Pangasius hypophthalmus, Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus and eel Monopterus albus) fishes in Peninsular Malaysia. The results show that the proximate composition and trace metal content were significantly different (P < 0.05) among species investigated. The mean protein content was the highest in eel (19.1%) and the lowest in sutchi catfish (13.0%) and cockle (13.0%). The mean lipid content of Indian mackerel (3.9%) was higher than cockle (2.0%), followed by eel (1.3%) and longtail tuna (0.8%). The mean ash content was the highest in Indian mackerel (1.4%) and the lowest in cockle (0.9%). Zinc and manganese contents in cockle (Zn: 61.2 mg kg−1, Mn: 22.7 mg kg−1) were very high compared to other species investigated. The copper content was minimum in sutchi catfish (1.0 mg kg−1) and a maximum in the hardtail scad (11.7 mg kg−1). Trace metal content in sutchi catfish, Nile tilapia, grouper, longtail tuna, eel and cockle followed an order Zn > Mn > Cu, whereas Asian seabass, hardtail scad and Indian mackerel followed a different order Zn > Cu > Mn. Trace metal content in the tissue of the fishes examined was within safe limits for human consumption except Mn content in the cockle and Cu content in the hardtail scad, which is a matter of concern. When considering the daily fish fat, mineral and trace metal intake, marine fishes and shellfish are better than freshwater fishes.
