Ascorbic Acid In Aquatic Organisms: Status and Perspectives
Editorial Reviews
Review
"… a comprehensive approach to the role of vitamin C at the cellular level … provides a critical review of vitamin C in aquaculture…" - Booknews "…comprehensively covers the subject of ascorbic acid in aquatic organisms, with emphasis on fishes. It is an important and useful compendium of information for fish (and shellfish) nutritionists and culturists. …because of the numerous effects AA has on fish physiology, disease resistance, reproduction, and behavior, it should also be an important volume for anyone involved in basic or applied fish research and hence holding and feeding fishes. The final chapter, by the editor, is an excellent conclusion that covers history, present and future of ascorbic acid research in aquatic organisms, and concentrates on the discovery of ascorbate essentiality to fishes, new and/or controversial areas in AA research, and areas where progress needs to be made in our understanding of the functions of vitamin C." - Vicki S. Blazer, National Fish Health Research Laboratory, in COPEIA May 2002
