Requirement for tryptophan by milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) juveniles
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
Groups of milkfish juveniles (mean initial weight 7.7 g) were fed semipurified diets containing 0.9, 1.4, 2.1, 3.1, 4.1 and 6.1 g tryptophan/kg dry diet for 12 weeks. The mean crude protein content of the diets (containing ...
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. ...
