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 ...
Variation in the biochemical composition of Penaeus monodon tissues during the reproductive cycle.
(Bamidgeh, 1990)
The gonadosomatic index (GSI) and the hepatosomatic index (HSI) were determined for wild-caught, eyestalk ablated Penaeus monodon at 5 reproductive stages (I to V). Tissues of the muscle, ovary and hepatopancreas in each ...
Evaluation of various protein sources for Penaeus monodon postlarvae
(University of the Philippines, Los Baños, 1979)
Penaeus monodon postlarvae with an average weight of 15.61 mg each were fed fresh brown mussel meat and artificial diets containing casein, shrimp meal, squid meal and Spirulina as protein sources at a daily rate of 20 per ...
Effect of salinity on the osmotic, chloride, total protein and calcium concentrations in the hemolymph of the prawn Peneaus monodon (Fabricius)
(Elsevier, 1986)
1. Osmolality and chloride concentrations in the hemolymph of Penaeus monodon became stable 1 day after molting in 32 ppt, while total protein and calcium concentrations remained stable throughout the molting cycle. When ...
The quantitative dietary protein requirements of Penaeus monodon juveniles in a controlled environment
(Elsevier, 1983)
Penaeus monodon juveniles (average weight = 1.32 g) were kept in individual 2 l perforated plastic containers, 10 of which were placed in each of the twenty-four 50 l rectangular wooden-glass aquaria supplied with seawater ...
Isolation and characterization of vitellin from the ovary of Penaeus monodon
(International Society of Invertebrate Reproduction and Development, 1990)
Female-specific protein (FSP, vitellogenin) in Penaeus monodon hemolymph and its related ovarian protein (vitellin, lipovitellin) were identified and characterized using electrophoretical and immunological procedures. The ...
Methionine requirement of juvenile tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon Fabricius
(Elsevier, 1996)
An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to determine the dietary requirement of postlarval Penaeus monodon for the sulfur-containing amino acid methionine. Shrimp postlarvae (mean weight 21 ± 0.3 mg) were reared in 40-1 ...
Effect of dehulling on the nutritive value of some leguminous seeds as protein sources for tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon, juveniles
(Elsevier, 1991)
Feeding experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of dehulling on the nutritive value of cowpea and rice bean as protein sources for P. monodon juveniles. Diets were prepared by adding legumes to replace 15.6% of ...
An evaluation of indigenous protein sources as potential component in the diet formulation for tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon, using essential amino acid index (EAAI)
(Elsevier, 1989)
The essential amino acid index (EAAI) could be used in screening potential protein sources. However, when formulating diets, EAAI should be supported with feeding trials and digestibility tests to determine the extent of ...
The response of Penaeus monodon juveniles to varying protein/energy ratios in test diets
(Elsevier, 1986)
Two sets of factorial experiments were conducted for 8 weeks to determine the response of Penaeus monodon juveniles (average weights = 0.60 ± 0.16 g and 0.80 ± 0.05 g) to diets containing various protein/energy ratios. The ...
