Cryopreservation of the euryhaline rotifer Brachionus plicatilis embryos
(Elsevier, 1990)
A method for the separation and cryopreservation of Brachionus plicatilis embryos is described. Juveniles with uniform development were collected from a cultured stock by passing them through a series of nets. Collected ...
Rearing silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Teleostei: Terapontidae) larvae using euryhaline rotifers as starter food
(College of Agriculture and Food Science, University of the Philippines Los Baños, 2021-12)
The silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus is an important but dwindling freshwater food commodity in Philippine freshwater habitats. The influence of feeding regimes on growth performance and survival of first-feeding ...
Effect of some vertebrate and invertebrate hormones on the population growth, mictic female production, and body size of the marine rotifer Brachionus plicatilis Müller
(Springer Verlag, 1997)
Eight vertebrate and invertebrate hormones were screened for their effect on population growth, mictic female production, and body size of the marine rotifer Brachionus plicatilis. Growth hormone (GH) or human chorionic ...
GABA enhances reproduction of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis Muller: application to mass culture
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2000)
Based on the results of individual and batch culture experiments in small volumes, we conducted experiments in larger volumes of 100 mL, 1 L and 10 L to determine: (1) at what phase of population growth would gamma-aminobutyric ...
Food value of Brachionus plicatilis fed three selected algal species as live food for milkfish, Chanos chanos Forsskal, fry production
(Blackwell Publishing, 1990)
The effects of three selected algal species, Tetraselmis tetrahele, Isochrysis galbana and marine Chlorella sp. on the population growth of Brachionus plicatilis was evaluated after 3, 5 and 7 days of culture. The rotifers ...
Effect of growth hormone and γ-aminobutyric acid on Brachionus plicatilis (Rotifera) reproduction at low food or high ammonia levels
(Elsevier, 1999)
Growth hormone (GH, 0.0025 and 0.025 I.U. ml<sup>−1</sup>) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 50 μg ml<sup>−1</sup>) enhance rotifer population growth in batch cultures. In order to further understand the mechanism of their ...
GABA, 5-HT and amino acids in the rotifers Brachionus plicatilis and Brachionus rotundiformis
(Elsevier, 2000)
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) have been shown to increase the reproduction of the Brachionus plicatilis (NH3L strain). In the present study, the endogenous presence of GABA and 5-HT in the ...
Effect of juvenile hormone and serotonin (5-HT) on mixis induction of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis Muller
(Elsevier, 2000)
Juvenile hormone (JH) and serotonin (5-HT) were previously shown to enhance mictic (sexual) female production of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis in batch cultures. To explore the basis of these effects, experiments were ...
The effects on growth and survival of feeding water fleas (Moina macrocopa Straus) and rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis ) to milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) fry
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1990)
The effects of feeding water fleas, Moina macrocopa Straus, and rotifers, Brachionus plicatilis, to milkfish, Chanos chanos Forsskal, fry at different feeding rates and frequencies were investigated. Fry (4.66 mg average ...
Enrichment potential of HUFA-rich thraustochytrid Schizochytrium mangrovei for the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis
(Elsevier, 2009)
An enrichment experiment was performed to evaluate the changes in lipid and essential fatty acid contents of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis fed with freeze-dried cells of tropical thraustochytrid Schizochytrium mangrovei ...
