Bacteriological and physic-chemical analysis of fish pond water is very important in aquaculture as this gives insights into likely threats to aquaculture and associated personnels. Bacteriological and physico-chemical profiles of selected fish ponds in the Ilorin West area of Kwara State, Nigeria were investigated to evaluate the water quality of rearing enclosures. Physico-chemical analyses revealed quality parameters were within the recommended range for aquaculture. Following bacteriological analyses of static water pond culture, the TVC and TCC showed temporal variations with concentration increasing with sampling time. However, the FCC showed fluctuation. Totally, 8 bacteria groups were isolated from both rearing enclosures. Of these, Gram negative bacteria showed dominance. In which 5 Gram negative (Escherichia coli, Proteus spp, Serratia spp, Enterobacter spp and Pseudomonas spp) and 3 Gram positive (Staphylococcus spp, Streptococcus spp, and Bacillus spp) were encountered. Estimates of bacteria occurrence in both rearing facilities respectively gave: Staphylococcus spp (20%), Streptococcus spp (12%) Proteus spp (8%) Enterobacter spp (20%) Serratia spp (16%), Bacillus spp (9%), Escherichia coli (8%), Pseudomonas spp (7%) from earthen pond water sampled. While Staphylococcus spp (18%), Streptococcus spp (16%), Proteus spp (8%), Enterobacter spp (22%), Serratia spp (8%), Bacillus spp (15%), Escherichia coli (8%), Pseudomonas spp (6%) from concrete water sampled. Conclusively, although there is the presence of bacteria groups of public health concern, the static water exchange provides benefits of natural processing of wastes and restoration of the pond ecosystem. Notably, the presence of Escherichia coli gives indication of presence of pathogenic organisms of enteric origin. The presence of these organisms has been associated with a lack of tentative pond management and effective biosecurity procedures. One recommendation to this culture system (static water aquaculture) is the consideration of adaptation of concepts in biomimicry or biofloc technology which operates on similar principles.

Research background. Coastal region of Croatia is rich in autochthonous grape varieties. Many of them have been almost abandoned such as the autochthonous varieties of Kastav (Croatia), used for the production of the Kastavska Belica wine. Therefore, the rationale of the presented study was to characterize autochthonous varieties 'Verdić', 'Mejsko belo', 'Jarbola', 'Divjaka' and 'Brajkovac' grape varieties. In addition, we performed a molecular characterization of the corresponding Belica wines. Experimental approach. Firstly, for five autochthons grape varieties, their genetic origin and ampelographic and economic characteristics were determined. Standard physico-chemical profiles and phenolic components by use of liquid chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (LC-QQQ) were determined for 12 corresponding wines from different producers. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used for determination of standard physico-chemical parameters Results and conclusions. Ampelographic analysis, which includes the data on producing characteristics and cluster and berry composition of varieties, revealed significant differences between analysed grape varieties. Results of physico-chemical analysis of the Belica wine showed that all wines met the requirements needed for the production of quality and top quality wines labelled with protected designation of origin (PDO) in Croatian coastal region. The LC-QQQ analysis confirmed the presence of different phenolic components in the Belica wines, where the most prominent phenols were flavonoids from the flavan-3-ol group. Overall, these results showed that autochthonous grapes from the Kastav region can be used for production of wines with added market value due to a growing demand for autochthonous products on the global market. Novelty and scientific contribution. The presented results represent scientific insight and a basis for further determination of the optimal cultivation technology aimed to take advantage of the best characteristics of each variety for production of a wine with desirable features.

Profiles are established of the energetic, structural, polar, charge and electron-topological parameters during the biologically important tautomerisations implicated in the origin of the point mutations induced by 2-aminopurine.
