There is a drawback that the death rate due to stress on the fish body due to the decrease in the fish body temperature, which occurs when the fish body temperature is lowered, is high. (2) When performing the above method, there is also a drawback that temperature control is difficult when lowering the body temperature of fish such as fish and shellfish. "Problems to be Solved by the Invention" (1) An object of the present invention is to provide a method for hibernating fish, shellfish, shellfish, mammals, vertebrates and the like. (2) It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for sterilizing an aqueous solution or other aqueous solution discharged from a waterworks or a sewage treatment plant. (3) It is an object to provide a method for sterilizing marine products such as shrimp, sea urchin, salmon roe, etc. or foods such as agricultural products or dairy products. (4) It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for sterilizing drinking water or other aqueous solutions or foods used in the food industry. "Means for Solving the Problems" In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention partially damages or destroys or freezes only a certain part of a brain cell, a cranial nervous system, or the like, and a temporary brain death state or brain death. It is characterized by putting the fish and shellfish into a hibernation state. The method of hibernation according to the above invention, wherein electric shock, weak voltage or discharge, sound wave, radio wave, shock wave or the like is used to partially damage or destroy only a certain part such as a brain cell or a cranial nervous system.
The method of putting to hibernation according to the above-mentioned invention, which uses a laser knife, heated fire chopsticks, or the like to partially damage or destroy only a part of a brain cell, a cranial nervous system, or the like. Only some parts of the brain cells or cranial nervous system, etc. are partially frozen and put into the hibernation state according to the above invention using dry ice or carbon dioxide gas or liquid nitrogen or chilled fire chopsticks etc. to damage or destroy it. Method. To damage or destroy only a certain part such as brain cells or cranial nervous system by partially freezing or cooling, liquid nitrogen or cooling to the inside of the skull with brain cells or cranial nervous system or other nervous system etc. The method for inducing hibernation according to the above-mentioned invention, which comprises injecting a solution of seawater or a cooled aqueous solution of alcohol or carbon dioxide into the skull or other nervous system for use. "Action" (1) When brain cells such as fish and shellfish or the part of the skull where the cranial nerve system is present or other nervous systems are damaged, destroyed or frozen by the following methods, the fish and shellfish etc. undergo a temporary brain death state. Or, although brain death occurs, the heart and other internal organs such as fish and shellfish are operating normally, so breathing is normal, but the fish and shellfish are in a lower body anesthesia state or general anesthesia state, and can swim or move. It is no longer possible, and fish and shellfish will be in a state of temporary brain death or brain death. Use electric shock or weak voltage or discharge or wave such as sound wave or electric wave or shock wave. Use a laser knife or heated chopsticks. Use dry ice, carbon dioxide, liquid nitrogen, or cooled fire chopsticks. Use liquid nitrogen or a solution such as chilled seawater or chilled alcohol or chilled carbon dioxide solution into the cranium or other nervous system, etc. to inject it into the cranium or other nervous system. Freeze or cool the internal or other nervous system, etc., or use alcohol poisoning. (2) The above-mentioned method has the following advantages with respect to a temporary brain death state or the advantage of fish and shellfish that have been in a brain death state. Water temperature is high (normal temperature or near normal temperature,
Even if the temperature is set to normal temperature thereafter, fish and shellfish cannot swim or move, so that the oxygen consumption may be lower than the normal state. Temporary brain death or fish and shellfish in the state of brain death,
Oxygen consumption is lower even when the water temperature is room temperature than normal fish and shellfish. Therefore, if normal fish and shellfish etc. do not reduce the fish body temperature to around 3 ° C, skin breathing alone will give life to the fish body. However, even if the water temperature is room temperature, compared to normal fish and shellfish, the oxygen consumption is overwhelmingly small, even if the water temperature is room temperature. , Temporary brain death or brain death of fish and shellfish, etc. can cover the oxygen consumption to maintain the living body only by skin respiration even at around 10 ° C. Above all, if the surface of the fish body is prevented from drying, the living body of the fish and shellfish can be maintained only by skin respiration, and therefore the living body of the fish and shellfish can be maintained in the air for a long time. If the above method is used, it can be used for storing or transporting more fish and shellfish per unit area in the air or in an aqueous solution such as seawater for a long period of time or for a long period of time. Can be done. (3) The above method can be used for temporarily storing a mammal or a vertebrate in a brain-dead state or a brain-dead state, storing it for a long time, or transporting it for a long time. (4) As other usage methods, there are the following usage methods due to the sterilizing effect such as electric shock when a high voltage is momentarily applied with an electric shock in an aqueous solution or another solution. .. It is possible to sterilize microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, parasites or parasites present in aqueous solutions or other solutions discharged by waterworks or sewage treatment plants. It is possible to sterilize marine products such as shrimp, sea urchin and salmon roe, foods such as agricultural products and dairy products. It is possible to sterilize drinking water or other aqueous solutions or foods used in the food industry. (5) In addition, the following means may be used as a temporary brain death state or a means for bringing the fish and shellfish into a brain death state. The skull of fish and shellfish is incised with a scalpel, and the cerebral portion inside the skull is excised or damaged or destroyed. Ethyl alcohol or carbon dioxide solution is injected into the cerebrum to destroy the cerebrum. Inject chilled ethyl alcohol or carbon dioxide gas solution or chilled salt water into blood to cause fish and shellfish to be symptoms of acute alcohol poisoning. Put fish and shellfish in a highly toxic gas containing carbon monoxide, etc., and make carbon monoxide poisoning to the extent that fish and shellfish do not die. Anesthetize the fish and shellfish in a gas containing nitrous oxide, which has an anesthetic effect. After the fish and shellfish are temporarily brain-dead or brain-dead by the method as described above, the fish body temperature may be lowered to put them into hibernation, although the result may vary depending on the fish species. I can. (6) When the above means are used, it is often impossible to perform the above-mentioned actions due to the fish and shellfish swelling. Before carrying out the procedure, apply a high voltage instantaneously to give an electric shock to the fish and shellfish to put them into a state of asphyxia, and then perform the above-mentioned actions safely and easily. Can be done. For example, there are the following effects. For example, if red sea bream becomes a symptom of carbon monoxide poisoning, red sea bream can be safely reproduced, and if it is impossible to measure the amount of carbon monoxide in blood of red sea bream, it can be reproduced safely. Can not be a symptom of carbon monoxide poisoning. In order to carry out the above-mentioned actions, without using drugs or the like, first of all, nothing can be done unless the red sea bream is prevented from going wild. The same can be said when a mammal such as a pig, a cow, or a nymph or a vertebrate is brought into a state of temporary brain death or a state of brain death. "Example" (1) In Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, what is illustrated is a state in which a high voltage is momentarily applied to a fish body such as a shellfish to give an electric shock. ing. The place where an electric shock is given to a fish body such as a fish and shellfish is limited to only the part with the skull shown in FIG. 3 or other nervous system. Even in the part with the skull or the other part, it is limited to only the part where the brain cells or the cranial nerve system etc. are concentrated or the part with the other nerve system etc. As described above, from the left and right sides of the skull or other nervous system, etc., depending on the fish species or the length of the fish body, etc. for a time of about 0.2 seconds, several volts to several hundreds
When an electric shock was applied by applying a voltage of a volt, the nervous system that controls the fish body such as fish and shellfish was paralyzed, and although the respiratory organs were operating normally, the lower half of the fish body or the whole body of the fish body was paralyzed. It becomes a state. If a weak voltage of several volts to several tens of volts is continuously applied after the electric shock is applied as described above, the paralyzed state continues for a long time. Fish shellfish or the like in which the lower half of the fish body or the whole body of the fish body is paralyzed can be used as follows. (A) When the temperature of the fish is lowered from room temperature, the fish and shellfish cannot swim or move, and the condition is temporary brain death or brain death. No stress is generated on fish and shellfish. When the above method is used, even if the temperature of the fish and shellfish etc. is lowered to a temperature at which the fish body can be maintained only by skin respiration, the temperature at which the fish becomes suspended will vary depending on the fish species, but Even if the temperature is lowered, the fish and shellfish cannot withstand the stress caused by the decrease in the body temperature of the fish, so that they will not die. (C) If the body temperature of the fish is lowered without using the electric shock as described above, the fish and shellfish will almost die due to the stress caused by the lowering of the body temperature of the fish. As an exception
Since only a few fish species, such as flatfish, are resistant to the cold, some fish species have a low mortality rate even if the body temperature is lowered. (D) As a result, using the electric shock as described above,
Paralyze the fish body, reduce the temperature of the paralyzed fish body,
Up to the temperature at which the fish body can be maintained only by skin breathing,
When lowered, it can be stored for a long period of time in an aqueous solution or in air. (E) In addition, in a gas or a container containing a gas such as carbon monoxide, which may be performed as follows,
Add fish and shellfish to make carbon monoxide poisoning. (2) In addition to electric shock, the following means may be used as a means for damaging or destroying a cerebral cell of a fish or shellfish or a cranium having a cranial nervous system or a part having another nervous system. Using sound waves, radio waves, shock waves, etc., damage or destroy a part of the skull with brain cells or cranial nerve system etc. or other nervous system etc., paralyze the lower half of the fish body or the whole body of the fish body, and temporarily A state of brain death or a state of brain death. Temporarily paralyze the lower half of the fish body or the whole body of the fish by using a laser knife or heated chopsticks to damage or destroy a part of the skull with brain cells or cranial nerve system etc. or other nervous system A state of brain death or a state of brain death. Using dry ice, carbon dioxide gas, liquid nitrogen, or cooled fire chopsticks, etc., damage or destroy a part of the skull with brain cells or cranial nerve system or other nerve system etc. by freezing or cooling from the surface of the fish body Then, the lower half or whole body of the fish body is paralyzed to a temporary brain death state or a brain death state. A solution such as chilled seawater or chilled alcohol or liquid nitrogen or chilled carbon dioxide gas solution is injected into the skull or into the nervous system, etc., and only a certain part of the brain cells or cranial nervous system is partially frozen or It is cooled and damaged or destroyed to paralyze the lower half of the fish body or the whole body of the fish body to a temporary brain death state or a brain death state. As described above, when injecting a cooled aqueous solution such as chilled seawater or a foaming solution into the inside of the skull or other nervous system etc. into the inside of the skull or other nervous system etc., fish and shellfish etc. In addition, by applying an electric shock as described above to paralyze the fish body and injecting cooled seawater or alcohol or an effervescent solution into the inside of the skull or other nervous system, fish and shellfish etc. It does not move or rampage, so it is easy to work with. "Method of Utilizing the Present Invention" (1) Using the present invention, a surgeon or an action is performed to give a temporary brain death state or a brain death state to a fish or shellfish, a mammal or a vertebrate by applying an electric shock or the like. Therefore, there are the following usages. Since fish and shellfish can be put to hibernation in the air or in an aqueous solution for a long period of time, they can be stored and used for transportation. Since pigs, cows, horses, chickens, etc. can be safely put into a hibernation state and kept alive for a long period of time, they can be used for storage and transportation. "Effects of the present invention" (1) When the present invention is used to put a fish, shellfish, mammal or vertebrate animal into a hibernation state, it can be safely and easily brought into a temporary brain death state or a brain death state. .. In particular, when a highly toxic gas such as carbon monoxide is used appropriately, the state of temporary brain death or the duration of the state of brain death can be freely adjusted depending on the concentration of the gas and the time during which the gas is breathed. There is an effect that can be. (A) When a gas having a low concentration of carbon monoxide gas is breathed for a long period of time, the state of brain death often occurs instead of the state of temporary brain death. (B) When a gas having a high concentration of carbon monoxide gas is breathed for a short time, a temporary brain death often occurs. (2) In addition, as a method of using carbon monoxide gas, etc.,
