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 ...
Low-cost feed for Penaeus monodon reared in tanks and under semi-intensive and intensive conditions in brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1997)
Experimental diets for juvenile Penaeus monodon were formulated incorporating inexpensive indigenous raw materials. Local fish meal and cowpea meal were tested as replacements for imported protein sources and the diets did ...
A practical method of extracting mimosine from ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves and its effect on survival and growth of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1992)
Soaking fresh ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves in tap water (1:1, v/v; or 50 g in 500 ml) for 30-48 hours with a water change after 24 hours extract atleast 90% of its mimosine, a toxic lysine derivative. This ...
Growth and survival of juvenile tiger shrimp fed diet where fish meal is partially replaced with papaya (Carica papaya L.) or camote (Ipomea batatas Lam.) leaf meal
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1995)
Fish meal is the major protein source in shrimp and fish diets but its continuous use would make it scarce and expensive. There are, however, potential substitutes like soybean or leaf meals. Papaya or camote leaf meals ...
Effect of dietary astaxanthin and vitamin A on the reproductive performance of Penaeus monodon broodstock
(Cambridge University Press, 1998)
The reproductive performance of pond tiger shrimp given astaxanthin (100 mg·kg<sup>−1</sup>) and/or vitamin A (20 000 IU·kg<sup>−1</sup>) for 61 d in tanks was assessed in a 2 × 2 factorial experiment in a completely ...
L-ascorbyl-2-phosphate Mg as source of vitamin C for juvenile Penaeus monodon
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
Phosphated ascorbic acid (MAP), a stable vitamin C derivative, was used in practical diets for Penaeus monodon (wet weight, 126-254 mg) as a source of vitamin C. In Experiment I, the levels were from 0 to 1,500 ppm MAP. ...
Ingestion saturation and growth responses of Penaeus monodon larvae to food density
(Elsevier, 1989)
Different larval stages of Penaeus monodon were fed with increasing densities of Tetraselmis sp. to evaluate the relationship between food density, ingestion rates, development and growth of Penaeus monodon larvae. Ingestion ...
Growth and fatty acid composition of Penaeus monodon juveniles fed various lipids
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
A 4-week feeding trial was conducted to determine the growth and fatty acid composition of Penaeus monodon juveniles fed dietary lipids from different sources. The animal lipid (cod liver oil, pork lard and beef tallow) ...
Processed meat solubles, protamino aqua, used as an ingredient in juvenile shrimp feeds
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 2000)
The nutritive value of processed meat solubles, Protamino Aqua, a by-product from slaughter-houses, was examined in a growth trial with juvenile tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon. Experimental diets were formulated to contain ...
Assimilation of aquatic macrophytes in Penaeus monodon
(Taylor & Francis, 1993)
The macrophytes Najas graminea and Ruppia maritima are common aquatic plants found in brackishwater ponds in the Philippines. The assimilation efficiencies of these plants by male and female Penaeus monodon (30-40 g wet ...
