Aquaculture Mycology and Bacteriology is a practical reference to address the steadily increasing importance of infectious diseases of aquatic animals. With the burgeoning expansion of the animal aquaculture industry to new geographic areas, new microbial and parasitic species with pathogenic potential will continue to emerge. This necessitates rapid identification of the new pathogens to enable their control. Each pathogenic bacterial or fungal species is accompanied by the full description of both taxonomic and clinical information for the three major aquatic food animals (fish, crustaceans and mollusks). The book takes a comprehensive approach to facilitate research to develop vaccines or other similar pathogen mitigation measures, and is useful to bacteriologists, mycologists, aquaculturists, clinical practitioners in aquatic animal health and all those in industry, government or academia who are interested in aquaculture, fisheries and comparative biology.

Carbohydrate Nutrition discusses the nutritional functionality of foods in addressing the current metabolic disease epidemic. It begins by introducing the sources and structures of various carbohydrates, including starch, human milk oligosaccharides, polyols, arabinoxylan, beta-glucan, and cellulose, along with their function in the small intestine and colon. The book offers a comprehensive examination of carbohydrates, covering their chemistry, classification, digestion and health implications. The importance of prebiotic carbohydrates, such as human milk oligosaccharides and dietary fibers like cellulose, arabinoxylans, and beta-glucan is also discussed.Each chapter is authored by leading experts in the field making Carbohydrate Nutrition is a valuable resource for nutrition researchers, food scientists, food chemists, and those studying related topics. Readers can apply these insights to the design and development of foods with improved carbohydrate nutrition.
