Effects of arachidonic acid supplementation on larval and survival and reproductive performance in rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2007)
Fry of tropical marine fish needed for aquaculture still comes mostly from the wild. Thus, fry availability is a major constraint in the development and extension of aquaculture, especially in rural areas of developing ...

Lipid nutrition studies on grouper (Epinephelus coioides) larvae
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2004)
The main objectives of this project were to study the lipid chain transfer from the egg stage through hatching and the patterns of lipid conservation or loss during starvation and feeding of larvae in order to elucidate ...
Arachidonic acid distribution in seaweed, seagrass, invertebrates and dugong in coral reef areas in the Philippines
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2007)
Arachidonic acid (ArA) was not a minor component, and ArA distributes widely in coral reef organisms. Seagrass had high linoleic acid and linolenic acid levels with low Ara, EPA and DHA levels, while some species of seaweed ...

Amino and fatty acid profiles of wild-sourced grouper (Epinephelus coioides) broodstock and larvae
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2004)
This study was undertaken to provide information on the levels of amino acids in the muscle, liver and gonad of wild-sourced broodstock and larvae, as well as in neurula eggs and day 35 larvae from a hatchery. The fatty ...

Arachidonic acid enrichment of rotifers and effects of dietary arachidonic acid on broodstock performance of rabbitfish Siganus guttatus
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2006)
Rotifers (Brachionus sp.) were cultured with various combinations of baker’s yeast, Nannochloropsis sp., Culture selco, and DHAPS with or without supplementation of arachidonic acid (triacylglycerol form). Rotifers were ...

Arachidonic acid distribution in mangrove organisms in the Philippines, Malaysia and Japan
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2006)
There has been little information on the importance of arachidonic acid (20:4n-6, ArA) in fish and other aquatic animals, although the importance of eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5n-3, EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3, ...
