fish consumption fish oil omega 3 fatty Acids and cardiovascular disease
Arteriosclerosis Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2003Co-Authors: Penny M Krisetherton, William S Harris, Lawrence J AppelAbstract:Since the first AHA Science Advisory “Fish Consumption, Fish Oil, Lipids, and Coronary Heart Disease,”1 important new findings, including evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs), have been reported about the beneficial effects of omega-3 (or n-3) fatty Acids on cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with preexisting CVD as well as in healthy individuals.2 New information about how omega-3 fatty Acids affect cardiac function (including antiarrhythmic effects), hemodynamics (cardiac mechanics), and arterial endothelial function have helped clarify potential mechanisms of action. The present Statement will address distinctions between Plant-derived (α-linolenic Acid, C18:3n-3) and marine-derived (eicosapentaenoic Acid, C20:5n-3 [EPA] and docosahexaenoic Acid, C22:6n-3 [DHA]) omega-3 fatty Acids. (Unless otherwise noted, the term omega-3 fatty Acids will refer to the latter.) Evidence from epidemiological studies and RCTs will be reviewed, and recommendations reflecting the current state of knowledge will be made with regard to both fish consumption and omega-3 fatty Acid (Plant- and marine-derived) supplementation. This will be done in the context of recent guidance issued by the US Environmental Protection Agency and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) about the presence of environmental contaminants in certain species of fish. ### Coronary Heart Disease As reviewed by Stone,1 three prospective epidemiological studies within populations reported that men who ate at least some fish weekly had a lower coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality rate than that of men who ate none.3–6⇓⇓⇓ More recent evidence that fish consumption favorably affects CHD mortality, especially nonsudden death from myocardial infarction (MI), has been reported in a 30-year follow-up of the Chicago Western Electric Study.7 Men who consumed 35 g or more of fish daily compared with those who consumed none had a relative risk of death from CHD of 0.62 and a relative risk of nonsudden death from MI of 0.33.

bio electrochemical power generation in petrochemical wastewater fed microbial fuel cell
Science of The Total Environment, 2019Co-Authors: Sumaya Sarmin, Asmida Ideris, Baranitharan Ethiraj, Amirul M Islam, Chin Sim Yee, Md Maksudur Rahman KhanAbstract:Abstract The petrochemical wastewater (PCW) from acrylic Acid Plants possesses a very high chemical oxygen demand (COD) due to the presence of acrylic Acid along with other organic Acids. The treatment of PCW by conventional aerobic and anaerobic methods is energy intensive. Therefore, the treatment of PCW with concurrent power generation by employing microbial fuel cell (MFC) could be a potential alternative to solve the energy and environmental issues. This study demonstrates the potentiality of PCW from acrylic Acid Plant with an initial COD of 45,000 mg L−1 generating maximum power density of 850 mW m−2 at a current density of 1500 mA m−2 using acclimatized anaerobic sludge (AS) as biocatalyst. The predominant microbes present in acclimatized AS were identified using Biolog GEN III analysis, which include the electrogenic genera namely Pseudomonas spp. and Bacillus spp. along with methanogenic archea Methanobacterium spp. The mechanism of electron transfer was elucidated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) which clearly demonstrated the natural metabolite-based electron transfer across the electrode/biofilm/solution interface. The abundance of the electron shuttle metabolites was increased with the microbial growth in the bulk solution as well as in the biofilm leading to a high power generation. The COD removal efficiency and the coulombic efficiency (CE) were found to be 40% and 21%, respectively after 11 days of operation using initial COD of 45,000 mg L−1. The low COD removal efficiency could drastically be increased to 82% when the initial COD of PCW was 5000 mg L−1 generating a power density of 150 mW m−2. The current work proves the feasibility of the MFC for the treatment of acrylic Acid Plant PCW using acclimatized anaerobic sludge (AS) as a biocatalyst.

peformance evaluation of petrochemical wastewater fed air cathode microbial fuel cells using yeast biocatalyst
Journal of Chemical Engineering and Industrial Biotechnology, 2018Co-Authors: Sumaya Sarmin, Asmida Ideris, Sim Yee Chin, Kui Cheng Chin, Md Maksudur Rahman KhanAbstract:This paper presents the performance of air-cathode microbial fuel cell (AC-MFC) treating the petrochemical wastewater (PCW) from acrylic Acid Plant. The wastewater which is typically incinerated and possesses very high chemical oxygen demand (COD) due to presence of acrylic Acid along with other organic Acids. The goal of the present study is to evaluate the viability of treating the wastewater using yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) as biocatalyst in AC-MFC for simultaneous treatment of wastewater and electricity generation. This study demonstrates that Saccharomyces cerevisiae could function as a good biocatalyst producing high power density of 0.24 W/m3 using PCW with an initial COD of 26,000 mg/L. The COD removal efficiency and the columbic efficiency (CE) were found as 38% and 23.6% respectively. The electron transfer process across the electrode/biofilm/solution interface was analyzed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The present work demonstrates the potential of MFC for the treatment of acrylic Acid Plant PCW using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as biocatalyst.
