Influence of various dietary synthetic carotenoids on bio-defence mechanisms in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2001)
This study examined the influence of different carotenoids on growth and some immune indices in rainbow trout. Six semipurified casein-based diets were formulated to contain one of three different carotenoids: astaxanthin, ...
Apparent digestibility of selected ingredients in diets for juvenile grouper, Epinephelus coioides (Hamilton)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
Apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) for dry matter (ADC<sub>dm</sub>) and crude protein (ADC<sub>cp</sub>) of selected feed ingredients were determined in vivo for grouper using passive faeces collection (Guelph ...
Phosphorus utilization in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fed practical diets and its consequences on effluent phosphorus levels
(Elsevier, 2003)
Excessive dietary phosphorous (P) concentrations in effluents from aquaculture present a major environmental problem. We therefore studied the effect of dietary P and vitamin D<sub>3</sub> on P utilization by rainbow ...
Utilization of feed pea, Pisum sativum, meal as protein source in practical diets for juvenile shrimp, Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 2003)
The potential of feed pea meal as an alternative protein source to soybean meal in practical diets for the juvenile tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon, was assessed in several experiments. Six isonitrogenous diets were formulated ...
Possible application of mibolerone for induced sex inversion of grouper Epinephelus coioides
(Japanese Society of Fisheries Science, 2001)
Thirty immature juvenile grouper Epinephelus coioides (19-168 g bodyweight, BW) were randomly stocked in four units 6 t tanks to determine if mibolerone can be used to induce sex inversion in groupers. After acclimatization ...
Rapid wound healing in African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, fed diets supplemented with ascorbic acid
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 2001)
Wound healing in African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, fed diets supplemented with ascorbic acid was studied under laboratory conditions. Fish weighing approximately 80-110 g were stocked in 500 l aquaria in a static water ...
Diet development and evaluation for juvenile abalone, Haliotis asinina: animal and plant protein sources
(Elsevier, 2003)
Growth studies were conducted to determine the suitability of animal and plant protein sources in the diet of abalone, Haliotis asinina. Juvenile abalone with mean initial weight and shell length of 0.69±0.04 g and 11.4±0.35 ...
Potential of feed pea (Pisum sativum) meal as a protein source in practical diets for milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 2003)
A 12-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the use of feed pea meal as a dietary protein source for juvenile milkfish. Six isonitrogenous (30% crude protein) and isocaloric (16.5 kJ/g) practical diets were formulated. ...
A practical broodstock diet for the mangrove red snapper, Lutjanus argentimaculatus
(Elsevier, 2003)
A practical broodstock diet (39% protein, 8.6% lipid) was formulated for the mangrove red snapper as part of a project to ensure consistent production of good quality eggs and larvae through broodstock nutrition. Reproductive ...
Apparent digestibility of selected feedstuffs by mud crab, Scylla serrata
(Elsevier, 2003)
A feeding experiment was conducted to determine apparent digestibility coefficients for dry matter (ADMD), crude protein (ACPD), crude fat (ACFD), crude fiber (ACFbD), nitrogen-free extract or NFE (ANFED), and crude ash ...
