“…As the production of hilsa has increased in recent years, the Bangladeshi Government has lifted a ban on the export of hilsa to the international market (Shamsuzzaman et al . ). The microbiota in the gastrointestinal tracts of fish plays important roles in digestion, nutrition, immunity, reproduction and the overall health of fish (Ghanbari et al .…”

Aims This study conducted bacterial community, virulence and antibiogram profiling inside the hindgut and skin of freshly caught hilsa fish and those sold at markets. Methods and Results The results of 16S rRNA‐based high‐throughput sequencing showed a higher number of bacterial genera in marketed fish samples than in fresh fish samples. The total operational taxonomic units, genus counts and diversity index were significantly higher (P > 0·05) in marketed fish, which also had abundant pathogenic bacterial groups. Skin samples had a lower profusion of pathogenic bacteria than gut samples. A total of 52 bacterial isolates from nine species were identified in this study, of which 25 were from a Chittagong market and 22 were from a Dhaka market, whereas only five were from fresh hilsa. The polymerase chain reaction amplification of 12 species‐specific virulence genes in the 52 isolates, namely, aer, hly, chxA, toxB, rtxC, sfa, uge, norB, trx, toxA, ipaH, sigA and coa, indicated a high number of positive samples containing Vibrio cholerae, Aeromonas spp., Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Antibiogram profiling of these bacteria against 10 commercial antibiotics showed high‐resistance patterns of the isolates against sulfamethoxazole, kanamycin, neomycin, ampicillin and tetracycline. Conclusion The results reveal the spread of multidrug‐resistant bacteria in hilsa fish marketed for human consumption in Bangladesh. Significance and Impact of the Study This study highlights the risk of spreading environmentally and clinically pathogenic bacteria in fish sold for human consumption in Bangladesh. Such bacteria come from aquatic pollution and poor handling, storage and transportation practices that may predispose fish to major outbreaks of infectious and waterborne diseases.

“…Furthermore, this fish item has significant contribution to economy as well. One research shows that fisheries contribute 3.69% in the Gross Domestic Products (GDP) in which Hilsa Fish maintains a lion share (Shamsuzzaman et al, , p. 145). On the other hand, Jamdani weavers of Bangladesh produce more than 2 lakh pieces saree yearly and there are some 68,000 people directly and indirectly involved in Jamdani Saree .…”

This paper, as the title suggests, explores TRIPS compatibility of Bangladeshi legal regime on geographical indications along with its challenges and potential impacts. The global transformation of IPRs regime, as significantly developed by TRIPS Agreement, was and still is not a pleasant journey for many countries in general and for the least developed countries (LDCs) in particular. Arguably, the developing nations and LDCs were not able to negotiate their interests adequately in the drafting process of TRIPS. However, TRIPS is a global reality now and WTO members are inherently under an obligation to replicate TRIPS principles and guidelines in their domestic legal regimes. Bangladesh, as a member of WTO, has started to redesign its legal frameworks to be among the TRIPS compliant countries. In this process of transformation, sui generis Legislation along with a Rule for the protection of geographical indications has been enacted by Bangladesh. This paper sheds light on the two key issues—TRIPS compatibility of Bangladeshi GI legal regime and unexplored challenges of geographical indications of Bangladesh. Placing the TRIPS as the guiding document, this paper compares the Geographical Indication Law of Bangladesh and provides some critical observations in appropriate cases.

“…This fish is important socially and culturally to Bengali people living both in Bangladesh and abroad and it has great contribution to economy of the country. During the 2001-02 the production of Hilsa was 284.60 thousand MT whereas, in 2013-14 this production increased to 385.14 MT (Shamsuzzaman, 2017). Due to some restrictions this fish are not available throughout the year.…”

Shelf-life of potassium sorbate (2%) and gamma irradiation (2kGy) treated Hilsa shad (Tenualosa ilisha) were determined after storing at 0 o C and 4 o C for a period of upto 35 days. Organoleptic evaluation showed that control, potassium sorbate treated and irradiated samples remained acceptable upto 21, 28 and 35 days of storage periods respectively at 0 0 C. Whereas, the same samples remained acceptable upto 7, 14 and 21 days of storage respectively at 4 0 C. Tyrosine and pH of fish flesh increased with the increasing of storage periods in all samples but, this increasing trend was somewhat lower in irradiated sample compare to other samples. Microbial assessment showed the best results in case of irradiated sample and remained within the acceptable limit.
