Molluscicidal activity of tobacco dust against brackishwater pond snails (Cerithidea cingulata Gmelin)
(Elsevier, 1998)
Toxicity tests on the effect of tobacco dust against brackishwater pond snails (Cerithidea cingulata Gmelin) of various stages or size ranges were conducted under controlled laboratory conditions. The 72-h LC<sub>50</sub> ...
Sulphur amino acid requirement of juvenile Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer
(John Wiley and Sons, 1999)
The dietary requirement of juvenile Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer for total sulphur amino acids was studied. Fish (average initial weight of 2.59 plus or minus 0.08 g) were reared in twelve 500 L fibreglass tanks provided ...
Studies on the digestive lipases of milkfish, Chanos chanos
(Elsevier, 1990)
Milkfish grown on two natural foods were examined to determine the distribution pattern of the digestive lipases along the digestive tract and to identify the optimum condition for lipase activity. One food consisted of a ...
Use of metaldehyde as a molluscicide in semi-commercial and commercial milkfish ponds
(Elsevier, 1998)
The effect of metaldehyde on brackish water pond snails, Cerithidea cingulata, was tested in 250 m2 ponds, and in semi-commercial and commercial milkfish ponds. The field trials were conducted at three locations, namely ...
Requirements of juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) for essential amino acids
(American Society for Nutrition, 1993)
The dietary requirements of juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) for essential amino acids were determined in a series of experiments. The fish (< or = 8.0 g) were reared in fiber glass tanks provided with flow-through ...
Lipid and fatty acid composition of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) grown in freshwater and seawater
(Elsevier, 1992)
The lipid and fatty acid compositions of the various organs of milkfish fed with an invariant diet and reared in seawater (SW) and freshwater (FW) were determined using column chromatography and gas chromatography. ...
Dietary requirement of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) juveniles for total aromatic amino acids
(Elsevier, 1992)
The phenylalanine requirement of milkfish at two dietary tyrosine levels was determined using a 2× 6 factorial feeding experiment. The amino acid test diets (45% crude protein) contained vitamin-free casein and gelatin ...
Growth and production of milkfish (Chanos chanos) in brackishwater ponds: effects of dietary protein and feeding levels
(Elsevier, 1995)
The most economical combination of dietary protein and feeding levels for milkfish culture in brackishwater ponds was determined. Milkfish juveniles (average weight, 5 g) were stocked at 7000/ ha and fed two diets containing ...
Techniques on algae harvesting and preservation for use in culture and as larval food
(Elsevier, 1990)
A method of algae harvesting and preservation was developed. Test algal species consisted of two diatoms: Chaetoceros calcitrans and Skeletonema costatum, and two flagellates: Tetraselmis chui and Isochrysis galbana. ...
Effect of dietary lipid sources on growth, survival and fatty acid composition of sea bass (Lates calcarifer, Bloch) fry
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
Soybean oil, cod liver oil and coconut oil were tested singly or in combination (1:1) as a source of dietary lipid for sea bass fry. Growth and survival rates of fry fed a diet containing cod liver oil and soybean oil (1:1 ...
