Endoparasites in Sardinella lemuru and Glossogobius guiris from Caraga, Philippines

Abstract

Fish often serves as a staple food and protein source. Most Filipinos depend on fishing activities as a means of living. Fish parasites are diverse and pervasive organisms affecting a variety of hosts, including commercially important fish. Despite being utilized for commercial purposes, limited studies on fish parasitism are done in the Caraga region and are published in the Philippines. This study is one of the few conducted on the prevalence of parasites from the coast of Cabadbaran City and Lake Mainit in Jabonga, Agusan Del Norte, Phils. The two areas were the major fishing ground for different fish varieties sold in the local market. Two fish samples were collected: Glossogobius guiris (n=100) and Sardinella lemuru (n=100). Standardized protocols for fish parasite investigation were adopted. From the collected fish samples, the gastrointestinal tract was subjected, then examined and isolated. Of the 200 individuals, there were 2 found infected withG. guiris and 8 infected withS. lemuru. The recorded parasite was identified as Nematodes and was mostly observed in marine fish species (S. lemuru) when compared to freshwater fish (G. guiris). This implies that the occurrence of these parasites may vary depending on the fish type, maturity, diet composition, and location. A significant difference p=0.0003 was observed in the length-weight and prevalence of fish parasites and infers that size structure is associated with parasitic rate. Thus, the importance of conducting fish parasites could give an understanding of how this ubiquitous organism affects commercially important fish and awareness to the fish-eating community.

Introduction

In the Philippines, fish livelihood activities greatly contribute to the local and national economies. Fishing has produced a large contribution to the country’s development, with the recorded input of an estimated 4.33 billion dollars to the country’s financial resources (BFAR, 2016). Due to this record, there is a need for intensive management of fishery activities to maintain the economic stability of the country. Along with this is the careful assessment of the quality of harvest as its Philippine catch value increases over time (Anticamara and Go, 2016). Fish is successfully marketed according to a range of customer key standards (Saeed et al., 2022), and such requirements are qualities that are largely influenced by environmental factors (Fritrianiet al., 2019).

A prevalent problem in aquatic animals is parasitism which contributes to high mortalities among fish stocks (Edeh & Solomon, 2017). This special interaction between organisms involves a parasite harming a host or limiting its abundance. The impact of these organisms stretches out to an ability to wipe out other species due to their ability to cause wide epidemics, especially for disease-causing parasites (Frainer et al., 2018). Parasites are classified into ectoparasites, parasites on the external part of the host and endoparasites, parasites within the host’s body. Such endoparasites may be located within the flesh and organs of the host organism (Edeh & Solomon, 2017). Flagellates, amoebae, and Haplosporidia are examples of these parasites, to name a few (Lucas etal., 2019). The existence of these harmful organisms affects fish quality such that a study made byRamos, 2020 proved that some of these parasite-infested fish products are commercialized.

Despite their ability to cause diseases, fish are also known to be effective bioindicators. In an evaluation performed by Fierro etal., 2019, fishes were proven to present information on human agricultural activities to which their setting is subjected, as well as the water pollution in the same setting. In addition, fish examination gives information on the health and environmental disturbances by assessment of the inner organs and tolerance. Fish had also been used in a different study by (Gutiérrez and Agudelo, 2020) in assessing the accumulation of coal and mercury in Colombian waters, which gave significant results. Many factors contribute to the results of these bioassessments, namely, the increase in population (Rabadon & Corpuz, 2021), as well as climate change and the pollution that is brought about by the same factor (Wu etal., 2019).

Moreover, the fish-size relationship and the occurrence of parasites in fish products reduce the value and quality to drop, thus changing the marketability of the fish (Abollo etal., 2001; Levsen et al., 2005; Karl, 2008; Llarena-Reino etal., 2013; D’Amico et al. 2014; Llarena-Reino et al., 2015).

Fish parasite infection and pollution develop in ineffective energy and nutrient consumption and an escalation in energy expenditure of fish through respiration, impacting reproduction and growth (Marcogliese and Pietrock, 2011; Khan, 2012; Shea- Donohue et al., 2017; FAO 2020). More importantly, the risk posed by fish-borne parasitic zoonoses to human health (Quiazon, 2015) is estimated to be high, especially since fish is the staple food of fishing communities and eating raw fish is common practice in the region (Soares Magalhães etal., 2014; Tenorio and Molina, 2021).

This study utilized Sardinella lemuru (Tamban) and Glossogobiusguiris (Pidjanga), which is a commercially important fish in the Caraga region and the Philippines as well. Being ranked second in terms of volume in fish production, it is considered to be one of the most abundant fish and an affordable source of protein in the country (Labrador et al., 2021). These fish have a good hold on the economy of the Philippines and can affect the state of that part of the country. However, according to a study (Pohle, 2013), consumers have the trend in food without assessing the quality and information of the said product. In this case, consumers are at risk of diseasecausing factors brought upon by the products they buy due to their lack of awareness and lack of assessment from the food industry (Ziarati etal., 2022). In support of this information, the American Society has found that about 260,000 people have reported being sick from consuming fish products. Likewise, Barrett etal., 2017 also recorded 857 outbreaks causing about 4800 illnesses with hospitalizations and deaths in the same country due to polluted fish.

Further, due to their availability and precise identification of species, fish assessments prove to be convenient and useful in scientific investigations. It is also imperative to perform with scientifically proven and applicable methods along with the locallyobtained samples. More importantly, there is a need to use a preventive approach in the maintenance of fish health in our aquatic resources (Assefa & Abunna, 2018). Moreover, Cook, 2017, infers that the foundation of sustainability rests upon three factors which are social, economic, and environmental. There were no studies conducted in the region utilizing the fish samples. Thus, the study aims to provide baseline information to address the gap. Lastly, the focus of the study is to determine the prevalence of endoparasites in Sardinella lemuru and Glossogobius guiris. While this also touches on the protection and conservation of our water resources as well as the health of the fish-consuming community.

#PHinfo: Cebuano News: Plant! Plant! Plant! ubos sa Agusan Up alang sa tuig 2021 nanukad na

DAKBAYAN SA BUTUAN, Enero 13 -- Nanukad ang probinsya sa Agusan del Norte pinaagi sa Team Plant! Plant! Plant! (Team Plant3) sa AGUSAN UP! sa inisyal nga lakang aron makatanum sa siyam ka priority crops sa gipunting nga 3,000 ektaryas sa tuig 2021.   Gihatud sa Team Plant3 ganihang buntag ang inisyal nga 1,000 ka seedling sa abaka alang sa mga mag-uuma ug mga sakop sa Indigenous Peoples (IP) nga andam na’ng motanum sa mga lungsod sa Jabonga ug Santiago.    Ang AGUSAN UP! mao ang kampanya sa pagpalambo sa administrasyon ni Gob. Dale B. Corvera inabagan sa buhatan ni Kongresista Angel Amante-Matba. Ang Plant! Plant! Plant! usa sa mga flagship projects niini.   Ang 3,000 ektaryas nga inisyal nga tamnan ning tuiga kabahin sa 125,000 ektaryas nga gipunting tamnan og abaka, saging, cacao, kape, lubi, bulanghoy, rubber, mangga ug uban pang prutas ug commercial trees hangtud sa tuig 2027.   Usa sa nakadawat sa seedling sa abaka kaganiha mao ang Dinarawan Indigenous Peoples Organization (DIPO) sa lungsod sa Jabonga nga mikomiter og 150 ektaryas nga tamnan og abaca, ingon man sa kape ug cacao hangtud sa tuig 2027.   Ang laing nakadawat og seedlings mao ang Pangaylan Indigenous Peoples Organization (PIPO) nga mikomiter og 200 ektaryas aron tamnan og abaca, kape, rubber ug cassava.   Nakadawat usab ang Kitcharao, Jabonga, Santiago, Tubay Hill Tribe nga mikometer og 300 ektaryas alang sa mga crops nga saging, abaca, ug falcatta sa mga luna nga nahimutang sa lungsod sa Santiago.   Sundan ang pagpanghatud sa seedling sa abaka sa mga mag-uuma ug IPs sa lungsod sa Kitcharao ugma. Himoon usab kini sa uban pang mga lungsod sa mosunod nga mga bulan. Gawas sa pagpadangat og seedling ipahiluna usab sa AGUSAN UP! nga makamugna ang grupo nga magbarug unya alang sa Abaca Industry Cluster og nursery sa abaca.   Mahinumdoman nga dul-an sa 500 ka mag-uuma ug IPs ang gihatagan sa Team Plant3 og Farm Planning ug Financial Literacy Seminars sugod sa milabay’ng Septiyembre isip kabahin sa pag-andam kanila alang sa pagpananum nga gisugdan niadtong Disyembre.      Magpadayon gihapon ang maong mga seminar samtang magpadayon na ang pagpananum sugod ning bulana ug sa tibuok na’ng tuig.   Dungan niini, gipahiluna usab karon sa Team Process! Process! Process! (Team Process3) ang Abaca Handicraft Processing Village sa Syudad sa Cabadbaran, ang mahimong pasilidades unya sa advance na nga processing activities sa Abaca.   Himoon ang pagpahiluna sa maong processing village samtang pakusgan usab ang suporta sa abaca fiber consolidation ingon man ang ug primary ug pipila ka secondary processing work sa San Isidro United Farmers Multi-Purpose Cooperative (SIUFMULCO).   Ang nahisgutang mga pagpahiluna sa value chain sa abaca kabahin sa nalatid nga roadmap sa mga stakeholders niini nga kab-oton ang kinatibuk-ang halin nga Php2 bilyones pag-abot sa tuig 2027.   Sa maong pagpadangat og seedling mapasalamaton ang mga mag-uuma ug IPs. Sumala pa kang Datu Randy Catarman, Chairman sa DIPO, daku na og ikatabang sa iyang mga membro ang natunol nga mga seedlings sa abaca. Ilang plano nga ibutang ang maong mga seedling sa sa ilang commonal area aron pasanayon ug magsilbing tinubdan na unya sa uban pang saha nga ilang itanum.   Kaabag sa probinsya sa pagpalambo sa abaca industry cluster ang Caraga Office sa Philippine Fiber Development Authority (PhilFida-Caraga) nga nag-produce sa mga seedling nga inisyal nga giapod apod ug iapod-apod pa unya, ingon man ang Agusasn del Norte Office sa Department of Trade and Industry (DTI-Agusan del Norte) nga mikometer na nga mosuporta pagpahiluna sa mga pasilidades nga kinahanglanon unya sa Abaca Processing Village ug ang Baug CARP Multi-Purpose Cooperative nga maoy nagpahulam sa mga mag-uuma ug IPs alang sa kabahin sa mga galastuhan pagtanum og abaka.

Irresistible... The sound of the rushing water drew me near this brook... It cascaded on a layer of rocks with a force that could sweep someone away... And then slowed down to a steady stream as the water touched the bed again. Hands dipped in the water...it was cold. But the kind that didn't give chills. It was the kind that gave relief. Had we not known that there was only one road (that we're aware of) to reach the spring, I was almost convinced that we were lost. But if getting lost meant being in the front row seat to the great symphony that only Nature could create, then I don't mind getting lost at all.* The sound of the wind whispering through the trees; birds singing; water rushing...and slowing down; and then the rain made a cameo as the sun prepared to descend behind those majestic mountains. I live for these moments.

My First Project- ASMAROS Global Corp. AVP

To those who do not know, I used to be part of the ‘rat race’ trying to climb that ever elusive corporate ladder while brushing elbows with the big wigs. I actually came out with a vlog about it in March 2017 here.

After almost a year of being out of the corporate world, I have officially reignited my passion for film making through this project-- The ASMAROS Global Corporation’s Corporate Audio-Visual Presentation.

ASMAROS Global Corporation is engaged in the global distribution  of eel products such as fillet, live and grilled or Kabayaki and Japanese  rice. These products are Japan Aquatic  Standard Certified products and are considered top quality under Japanese  standards. ASMAROS eel products come from  Cabadbaran Aquatech Resources Corporation (CARC), considered the most  modern eel farm in Asia, located in Cabadbaran, Agusan Del  Norte in Mindanao.

CARC’ eel farm and processing plant  are both JAS Certified. The Japanese rice likewise comes from  a local source, the CARAGA-AGUSAN GREENFIELD RESOURCES and AGROTECH  CORPORATION.

To ensure top quality, the eel farm,  processing plant and rice farm employ Japanese systems and technology and  Japanese managers and staff.

ASMAROS, through a logistics partner,  ships the products from the farm to a central warehouse in Metro Manila and  then to customers around the country. In the future, ASMAROS aims to expand  its operations globally to be a company where customers become raving fans.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Established in June 2017 located in  Las Pinas City, ASMAROS is a family owned company whose mission is to passionately  deliver products fresh on time every time to any location in the world.

ASMAROS Global Corporation will devote  time and resources in sustainable projects to exceed customer satisfaction  and develop a community of raving fan customers.

Today, our NSTP 2 instructor instructed us to create a compilation of the activity we completed, which was coast cleaning. When we do the coastal cleaning, I am late because I live in Nasipit and the location is in Cabadbaran, which is a long distance away; it will take me 1 to 2 hours to get there. Fortunately, my groupmates did not become enraged because they understood my situation hehehe. Also, our physics instructor gave us a midterm exam, and the deadline is tomorrow in the afternoon, so I'll answer first hehehe bye.
