Fifteen experimental diets with five levels of medium chain triglycerides (MCT) (0, 39, 78, 117 and 156 g kg?1) and three levels of cysteine supplementations (0.0, 2.5 and 5.0 g kg?1) were fed ad libitum to Atlantic salmon (mean weight at start 846 g) in sea water for 71 days. Nutrient digestibilities and protein retention improved significantly with increasing dietary MCT level following simple linear regression models. Positive effects were also observed on proteolytic enzyme activities in chyme of the pyloric region with peak value around 117 g kg?1 MCT. However, strong inverse relationships were observed between MCT level and feed intake, growth, body lipid and energy retention, and these effects accelerated with increasing MCT level. Also chyme dry matter decreased with increasing MCT level which also seemed to stimulate pancreatic and bile secretion. MCT did not significantly affect condition factor, dress out percentage, relative liver size or pH in gastrointestinal contents. The only significant effects of dietary cysteine supplementation were increased enzyme activities in chyme of the pyloric region with peak values for the intermediate cysteine level. The results elucidate the importance of diet composition for digestive functions, production efficiency and composition quality.  相似文献

SUMMARY: The periodical changes of feed digesta contents in the digestive tracts and plasma free amino acid levels of yellowtail, Seriola quinqueradiata (average weight 690 g) were investigated at 0, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 48 h after feeding on three different types of diets. The diets were: (i) extruded pellets prepared using a large-sized twin screw extruder (SDP); (ii) pellets processed using a small-sized twin screw extruder (EP); and (iii) single moist pellets (SMP). Three types of experimental fish meal diets were formulated so as to have an almost similar ingredient composition, and were supplemented with crystalline methionine, lysine, and tryptophan. Digesta contents in the stomach of fish fed the SDP diet during the experimental period were highest, whereas fish fed the SMP diet were lowest, and the stomach digesta evacuation time was different for the different types of diets. This might be caused by the differences in the chemical and physical properties of the diets. The evacuation times of the feed digesta contents of the stomach influence those of the intestine. Three crystalline amino acids added to the diets seemed to be absorbed effectively into blood plasma immediately after feed intake irrespective of the diet types. Periodical changes in the plasma levels of methionine seemed to be linked to the feed digesta contents of the stomach. Therefore, it is suggested that utilization of supplemented methionine might be affected by diet characteristics which, in turn, influence the stomach digesta evacuation times.  相似文献

A feeding trial was conducted to quantify the effects of phytase at levels of 0, 500, 1,000, 2,000, 4,000, and 8,000 units (U) per kg diet on utilization of dietary protein and minerals by fingerling (12 g) channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus fed an all‐plant‐protein diet composed of soybean meal, corn, and wheat middlings. The effects of phytase on dephosphorylation of phytic acid (phytate) in the alimentary tract of catfish also were determined. After 14 wk, mean weight gains (30.2–43.9 g/fish), feed conversion ratios (2.27–2.40 g feed consumed/g weight gain), protein efficiency ratios (1.47–1.61 g weight gaid/g protein consumed), and dietary protein retentions (23.8–26.7%) did not differ significantly (P > 0.05) among treatment groups. A digestibility trial conducted after the feeding trial showed no difference (P > 0.05) in mean digestibility of diet dry matter (49.0–58.3%) or crude protein (85.4‐88.5%) among treatment groups. Concentrations of ash (46.7–48.6%), calcium (Ca, 17.9–18.5%), phosphorus (P, 9.1–9.5%), and manganese (Mn, 65.5–74.1 mg/kg) were significantly higher (P ≤ 0.05) in bone of fish fed ≥ 500 U/kg than in bone of fish fed 0 U/kg (ash, 43.5%; Ca, 16.4%; P, 8.4%; and Mn, 49.0 ma/kg), but concentrations of these minerals did not differ (P > 0.05) in bone of fish fed ≥ 500 Uk/g. The magnesium (Mg) content of bone did not differ (P > 0.05) between fish fed 0 U/kg (0.29%) or 500 U/kg (0.34%), but was significantly lower in fish fed 0 U/kg than in fish fed ≥ 1,000 U/kg (0.35–37%). Bone Mg levels did not differ (P > 0.05) among fish fed ≥ 500 U/kg. The amount of zinc (Zn) in bone of fish fed 8,000 U/kg (153.3 mg/kg) was significantly higher than that in fish fed 0 U/kg (115.7 mg/kg) or 500 U/kg (130.3 mg/ kg), but did not differ from Zn levels in bone of fish fed 1,000–4,000 U/kg (134.5–135.8 mg/ kg). Dephosphorylation of phytate occurred primarily in the stomach within 2–8 h after diet ingestion, depending on the level of phytase supplementation. Initial levels of total phytate in the diet decreased 32–94% in stomach contents of fish fed l,000–8,000 U/kg within 2 h after feeding. Eight hours after feeding, stomach contents of fish fed ≥ 1,000 U/kg contained less than 6% of initial total dietary phytate. Stomach contents of fish fed 500 U/kg retained 92% of initial total dietary phytate 2 h after feeding and 15% of total dietary phytate 8 h after feeding. Results of this study indicate that phytase supplementation at levels up to 8,000 U/kg diet did not increase weight gain or improve dietary protein utilization of channel catfish fed an all‐plant‐protein diet. Addition of phytase at a level of 1,000 U/kg diet was sufficient to significantly increase the Ca, P, Mg, and Mn content of bone, relative to fish fed an unsupplemented diet, and significantly decrease the quantity of total phytate in feces. A phytase level of 8,000 U/kg diet significantly increased the bioavailability of naturally occurring Zn in feed ingredients and increased the rate of phytate dephosphorylation in the stomach, compared with a diet containing no added phytase. Increased utilization of naturally occurring minerals in feed ingredients reduces the need for mineral supplements in diets and results in decreased elimination of minerals in feces. Thus, use of phytase in catfish feeds can be expected to provide both economic and environmental benefits.  相似文献

In a piggery (approx. 60 sows) nearly all the weaned piglets (about 150) showed signs of poor development, reduced feed intake, increased water consumption, markedly dry and hard faeces, urine drinking, navel suckling and drowsiness over 6-8 weeks. In blood samples of 4 affected piglets a significant hypercalcaemia (values greater than 20 mg/dl)--combined with an at times marked hypophosphataemia--was measured. In the diet offered, a Ca content of 56.2 g/kg was estimated. An intoxication due to ochratoxin or due to excessive levels of quinoxaline or vitamin D was excluded by toxicological investigations of the diet. Contamination by Datura stramonium was also ruled out.  相似文献

Preliminary studies were conducted to determine if several feed supplements with the potential to improve dietary mineral availabilities in fish meal had any measurable effect in fish feeds. In the first study with rainbow trout, 11 supplements were tested: citric acid; sodium citrate; potassium chloride; sodium chloride; histamine dihydrochloride; EDTA disodium salt; sodium bicarbonate; a mixture of amino acids; ascorbic acid; a mixture of inositol and choline; and cholecalciferol. Apparent availability of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, iron, manganese and strontium in fish meal-based diets was determined using both yttrium oxide (Y2O3) and chromium oxide (Cr2O3) as inert dietary markers. Apparent availability was expressed as the fractional net absorption (%) of minerals from diets. After a 7-day acclimation period with test diets, fecal samples were collected for five consecutive days using passive collection systems. Apparent availability of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, manganese and strontium was increased by citric acid supplementation. Apparent availability of manganese also was increased by EDTA and sodium citrate. The other supplements had no measurable effect on the apparent availability of minerals in fish meal. In the second study, the effect of supplemental citric acid was further investigated using monogastric (rainbow trout) and agastric fish (goldfish). Fish were fed for 5 weeks (rainbow trout) or 3 weeks (goldfish) with fish meal-based diets containing either 0% (control), 2% or 5% citric acid on a dry basis. Feces were collected by settling and by stripping. Apparent availabilities of calcium and phosphorus were greatly affected by citric acid supplementation in rainbow trout but not in goldfish. Phosphorus levels in feces of fish fed a diet with 5% citric acid were approximately half of that of fish fed the control diet (0% citric acid) in the rainbow trout trial. This pattern was consistent during the 5-week feeding trial. A dietary supplement of citric acid as high as 5% did not reduce feed intake or appetite of rainbow trout. Conversely, this level of dietary acidification led to a marked reduction of feed intake in goldfish. Dietary supplementation of citric acid at 2% level did not reduce feed intake of goldfish; however, this level of dietary acidification had little effect on the apparent availability of major minerals in fish meal-based diet. Levels of non-fecal excretion of calcium and phosphorus, inorganic phosphorus in urine, and citric acid in feces were increased in rainbow trout fed 5% citric acid. The pH values of the feces and urine were decreased in rainbow trout fed citric acid. Plasma bicarbonate, plasma calcium and phosphorus, and blood pH of rainbow trout tended to increase by a 5% dietary supplementation of citric acid. The soluble inorganic phosphorus content increased in the diets and decreased in the feces of rainbow trout by supplementing the diet with 5% citric acid. Feces samples of rainbow trout collected by stripping provided similar availability values to data collected by settling for most elements except sodium, which had negative values in all dietary treatments.  相似文献

Atlantic salmon (1.9 kg), were fed a low carbohydrate/high protein or a high carbohydrate/low protein diet for 20 days prior to a fasting period of 60 days. At the end of the feeding period chyme was collected from the gastro-intestinal tract divided into six sections, for studies of starch, lipid and amino acid absorption. Blood and gut wall samples were taken on days 0, 5, 12, 33 and 60 of fasting. The results showed that 50% or more of amino acid, lipid and starch absorption took place in the pyloric region. The distal intestine was also of quantitative importance for lipid absorption. Diet composition affected only starch absorption. The effect was apparent in the pyloric region with no compensatory absorption in the more distal regions. Brush-border disaccharidase activities were negligible in the stomach, high in mid-intestinal regions and decreased towards the distal regions. High carbohydrate diet caused reduced trehalase activity. Fasting caused immediate decreases in disaccharidase activities as well as in plasma glucose, triacylglycerols, cholesterol and insulin. During the second week of the fasting period, temporary increases were seen in mucosal maltase, sucrase and trehalase activities and in plasma insulin level. Similar changes were observed for several plasma amino acids. To regain efficient nutrient digestion after a fasting period, a restoration period may therefore be needed.  相似文献

This study evaluated the effect of supplementation of a plant ingredients‐based diet with two levels of commercially digestive enzyme products: Synergen? and Natugrain® on the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of nutrients and on digestive enzyme activities in European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) juveniles. A control diet was formulated with 450 g/kg CP (200 g/kg from fish meal + 800 g/kg from plant protein) and 180 g/kg CL (fish oil), and four other diets were made similar to the control but supplemented with 0.2 g/kg or 0.4 g/kg of Synergen? and Natugrain®. Digestive enzyme activities were not affected by dietary treatments. Nevertheless, chyme pH along the intestine of fish fed the Natugrain®‐supplemented diets was reduced. The ADC of nutrients increased with exogenous digestive enzyme supplementation, with the highest ADC values being observed for the 0.4 g/kg Natugrain® diet. The ADC of dry matter, protein, lipids, energy and phosphorus in this diet were 26%, 6%, 4%, 16% and 63% higher, respectively, than in the control diet. Overall, diet supplementation with exogenous enzyme complexes seems to have high potential for improving the utilization of plant feedstuff‐rich diets for seabass juveniles. This study revealed that Natugrain® was more effective than Synergen? in improving the ADC of nutrients and energy in European seabass juveniles.  相似文献

An area of emerging importance is the role that the diet can play in alleviating the demands for ion uptake in fish living in a freshwater environment, by providing a highly concentrated supply of electrolytes. The availability of ions for uptake from the diet likely requires dissolution in the fluid phase of the chyme. However, the distribution of ions between the fluid and solid phases of chyme has not been well‐characterized in fish, and little is known about the effects of location along the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, or about the pH gradients found therein, on this distribution. Hence, the pH and ionic concentrations (Na+, K+, Cl?, Ca2+ and Mg2+, in both fluid and solid phases) of the chyme in each GI tract section were measured at various time points during the digestion of a single meal of commercial pellets in freshwater rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Additionally, the presence of an inert reference marker (lead‐glass beads) in the diet was used to quantify the distribution of these ions between the solid and fluid phases of the chyme. The buffering capacity of the food was evident in the acidic stomach (ST), whereas the intestine provided an alkaline environment for further digestion. It appeared that pH had little influence on the distribution of the monovalent ions between the phases in all GI tract sections. However, the ST showed significant changes in the partitioning of both Ca2+ and Mg2+, with each mineral becoming highly dissolved as the gastric chyme pH decreased. This was followed by subsequent precipitation of both minerals in the alkaline environment of the intestine. The high degree of dissolution of Ca2+ and Mg2+ in the fluid phase of gastric chyme corresponded with large absorptive rates from the ST seen previously, however, this was not true of the monovalent ions.  相似文献

A fish feeding trial was conducted in a warm‐water recirculating system for 8 weeks to assess the nutritive value of processed mucuna seeds as a dietary protein replacement for fish meal in practical diets of tilapia. Diets 2–6 contained mucuna seeds processed as follows: raw, soaked in water, soaked in sodium bicarbonate solution (0.07%), soaked in ascorbic acid solution (0.1%) or soaked in water containing 3% of freeze‐dried moringa leaf powder, followed by autoclaving. The mucuna seed meals were then used to replace 25% of the total dietary protein in each diet. The performance of fish fed these diets was compared with fish fed a fish meal‐based control diet (diet 1), which contained 35% protein. All diets were prepared to be isonitrogenous and isoenergetic. Each treatment had three replicates, using seven fish per aquarium, with a mean initial body weight of 3.9 ± 0.06 g. Fish were fed five times about their maintenance level (3.0 g feed × body weight (kg)?0.8 day?1), and no mortality was observed during the experiment. The growth rate, feed conversion ratio and protein productive value of fish fed diets 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 were similar. However, with regard to energy retention and apparent net lipid utilization, the values observed in fish fed diet 1 were similar to those of fish fed diets 5 and 6, and diet 6, and significantly higher than other dietary groups. Fish fed diet 2 showed a significantly (P < 0.05) reduced growth performance, higher carcass moisture and ash contents, and lower levels of lipid and energy compared with all other dietary groups. Fish fed diet 2 had a significantly lower plasma cholesterol level compared with other diets. However, no significant variation of muscle cholesterol was found between the dietary groups. Even though the hepato‐somatic index of the fish fed diets 3, 4, 5 and 6 was significantly lower than diet 1, these values appeared to be significantly higher compared with fish fed diet 2. The present study indicates that the inclusion of mucuna seed meal (replacement of 25% of total dietary protein of feed) after soaking in any one of the tested solutions followed by autoclaving significantly improved the growth performance and feed utilization of tilapia compared with that of the raw seeds. Moreover, these values were similar to the performance obtained with the fish meal‐based control diet 1. This might be due to the relative reduction of anti‐nutrients, particularly the non‐protein amino acid 3, 4‐dihydroxyphenylalanine, and increased palatability and nutrient availability of processed beans.  相似文献

Aflatoxicosis is a growing problem in aquaculture. A 42‐day study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and curcumin (CUR) to protect juvenile Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) from aflatoxins. Growth parameters along with alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and glutathione S‐transferase (GST) activities were measured. Shrimps (36) with an average weight of 76 ± 0.9 mg were randomly allocated in eight experimental groups. Non‐contaminated diet (NCD) and aflatoxin‐contaminated diet (ACD) at 200 μg/kg were prepared. ACD was used to prepare six diets supplemented with CLA (4, 5 or 6 g/kg) and CUR (0.15, 0.2 and 0.3 g/kg). ACD reduced feed intake, growth rate and nitrogen retention efficiency, and increased ALP and GST activity. Improved nitrogen retention was observed for all groups feed with CLA. CUR supplementation at 0.2 g/kg increased feed intake and growth rate while at 0.15 g/kg increased nitrogen retention. ALP activity was reduced in all CUR groups and in 5 and 6 g/kg CLA groups. Reduction in GST activity was observed in 0.15 and 0.2 g/kg CUR groups and 4 g/kg CLA group. CLA supplementation and CUR supplementation can be beneficial to protect juvenile shrimp against aflatoxins.  相似文献

Abstract. L-ascorbate-2-polyphosphate (brand name: ROVIMIX STAY-C) is a vitamin C derivative which is highly stable during feed processing and storage. Trials were run to determine the biological efficacy of L-ascorbate-2-polyphosphate (AAPP) in comparison to a coated ascorbic acid form (AASC).
Bioavailability was studied by force-feeding rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Wal- baum), a single dose of both ascorbate forms and evaluating the kinetics of plasma ascorbic acid (AA).
Growth performance and tissue concentrations of ascorbic acid in liver, anterior kidney and plasma were compared in rainbow trout (initial body weight: 9g) fed a practical diet containing AAPP at 60, 200 or 1000 mg AA equivalent/kg feed. Two other groups were fed either no vitamin C or AASC at 200 mg/kg. Liver AA contents were monitored after 0, 10, 20, 30, 60 and 157 days of experimental feeding, while head kidney and plasma AA contents were measured at day 157.
Atlantic salmon of the start-feeding stage received a practical diet containing AAPP at 0,60 or 200 mg A A equivalent/kg. AAPP was compared to AASC at the equimolar dose of 200mg/kg. Liver AA contents were measured after 14, 47, 124 and 205 days of feeding. Head kidney and plasma AA levels were also analysed at the end of the trial.
Results showed that AAPP and AASC were equally bioavailable, thus suggesting that ascorbate-2-polyphosphate is absorbed in the blood as free ascorbic acid. In both Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., and rainbow trout, liver AA levels reflected well the dietary dose of ascorbate. At the 200mg/kg dose, ROVIMIX STAY-C supported higher vitamin C hepatic levels than did coated ascorbic acid.  相似文献

The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary lipid, carbohydrate and their interactions on growth performance, feed utilization, body composition and non‐specific immunity of large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea). The experimental fish were fed the diets with graded levels of dietary crude lipid (80, 110 and 140 g/kg diet) and dietary carbohydrate (60, 90 and 120 g/kg diet) for 7 weeks. Results showed that the specific growth rate decreased significantly as dietary carbohydrate increased, which partly resulted from the progressively reduced feed intake and protein efficiency ratio. Meanwhile, the result of postprandial glucose content confirmed glucose intolerance of the croaker. However, the specific growth rate was not significantly altered by dietary lipid, but the feed intake was remarkably reduced. The different growth performance and feed utilization of croaker in response to dietary lipid and carbohydrate resulted in the variation of body composition. In addition, the activity of lysozyme and classical complement pathway was significantly improved in croaker fed the diet with 110 g/kg lipid. In above, dietary carbohydrate and lipid of large yellow croaker should be maintained at 60 and 110 g/kg diet, respectively, based on the above indices.  相似文献

Four isoenergetic (21 kJ/g dry matter, DM) and isolipidic (65 g/kg DM) diets containing different crude protein/total carbohydrate (CHO) ratios: 60/26, 56/30, 52/34 and 48/38, were tested in 22 g Senegalese sole for 104 days. Apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) were not affected by the treatments, and all groups presented extremely low starch ADC values (22.8%–36.5%). Replacement of dietary protein by CHO did not affect daily growth index (0.9–1.0), but significantly increased voluntary feed intake of fish. Regression analyses demonstrated that digestible protein content, rather than digestible energy, was the main dietary factor influencing such feeding activity (R2 = .952). A significantly increased feed conversion ratio was observed in sole fed increasing CHO contents. The dietary protein/CHO ratio did not influence whole‐body composition. Sole fed the 48/38 diet showed the lowest efficiency in terms of N and energy utilization. PUFA were the most represented fatty acid fraction in fillet, regardless of the dietary protein/CHO ratio, mainly due to the high content of DHA. Senegalese sole increase feed intake under low dietary protein/CHO ratios to ensure an adequate N intake. Such compensatory mechanism seems to be triggered to satisfy a specific protein metabolic requirement for energy purposes as tissue accretion remained unchanged.  相似文献

A fattening demonstration was carried out in Sorlagondi (15.86400N, 80.96710E) mangrove ecosystem in Diviseema region, Krishna district, Andhra Pradesh, India, by adapting a holistic approach of “Integrated Mangrove Fishery Farming System.” The local Yanadi tribal communities engaged in mangrove afforestation programmes were provided with 144 individual crab fattening cages (60 × 40 × 30 cm). Two formulated feeds were prepared with two levels of protein (32% and 36%) and were tested on fattening of the marketable size (200–1,000 g) of mud crabs, Scylla serrata. Significantly (p < 0.05) higher weight gain, feed and protein efficiency measures were observed in crabs fed with CP‐36% diet across all size groups. This diet also reduced the time (days) taken for fattening crabs irrespective of the size. Moisture content was very high in soft crabs (>800 g/kg) compared with hard crabs (679.70–688.65 g/kg), whereas the reverse trend was observed for protein, ether extract and ash content. Both diet and size of the crab have not shown much influence on proximate composition. However, cultured hard crabs had higher ether extract (20.10 g/kg) than wild hard crabs (17.06 g/kg). The changes in concentration of mineral values on wet basis indicated the increase in concentration in hard crabs compared with soft crabs, whereas when the percentage change, values on dry matter basis indicated the reduction in concentration of mineral contents of K, Na, P, Cu, Fe and Zn. This higher concentration of minerals in soft crabs could possibly be attributed to the reabsorption of minerals into soft muscle or to the body fluids.  相似文献

Juvenile rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum) were fed six low-phosphorus (P) diets supplemented with two different sizes of ground fish bone-meals (fine, 68 μm or less; coarse, 250–425 μm) and a coarse bone-meal diet containing four levels of citric acid (0, 4, 8 or 16 g kg−1 diet) to investigate the effects of pH and bone particle size on P bioavailability. The basal diet provided 3.4 g P   kg−1 and bone-meal increased P contents to 5.4–6.0 g P   kg−1. Coarse bone-meal diets supplemented with 0, 4, 8 or 16 g kg−1 of citric acid had pH values of 6.0, 5.7, 5.4 and 5.0, respectively. Weight gain and whole-body water, protein and lipid contents were not influenced by bone-meal supplementation. Supplementing the basal diet with both coarse and fine bone-meal significantly increased whole-body ash content. Fish fed no bone-meal were hypophosphataemic compared with fish fed with either fine or coarse bone-meals. Phosphorus in fine bone-meal had higher availability than P in coarse bone-meal. Bone-meal supplementation significantly decreased whole-body manganese content from 8.9 μg g−1 in fish fed no bone-meal to 2.3 and 4.5 μg g−1 in fish fed with fine and coarse bone-meals, respectively. The concentration of magnesium increased but zinc concentration was not affected by bone-meal supplements. Citric acid increased whole-body ash content but the influence of citric acid on the body P content was not significant ( P  = 0.07). Dietary acidification by citric acid significantly increased whole-body iron in a linear fashion. The bioavailability of dietary P can be improved by fine grinding the bone in fish meals.  相似文献

A growth trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary lipid level on juvenile kelp grouper Epinephelus bruneus. Juvenile kelp grouper were fed isonitrogenous diets (470 g/kg crude protein) with four levels of crude lipid at 60 g/kg (CL60), 130 g/kg (CL130), 210 g/kg (CL210), and 270 g/kg (CL270) for 56 days. The highest growth performance and feed utilization were found in the CL130 diet group. A high dietary lipid level (CL270 diet) significantly decreased growth performance and feed utilization. A significant difference in apparent digestibility was only observed in protein, which was highest in the CL130 diet groups. The highest retention for protein, energy, and lipid was found in the CL130 diet group. The dietary lipid levels significantly changed whole-body and liver compositions, the highest being the CL60 diet group for crude protein level and the CL210 diet group for crude lipid level. Based on a second-order polynomial regression analysis of crude lipid level against specific growth rate and protein efficiency ratio, the optimum dietary lipid level for kelp grouper was estimated to be 152 and 154 g/kg diet, respectively.  相似文献

This study was conducted to estimate the effects of dietary protein and lipid levels on the growth, body composition, gonadal development and activity of liver metabolic enzymes of the brown trout Salmo trutta fario broodstock. Ten diets were formulated containing five different protein levels (360, 390, 420, 450 and 480 g/kg) and two different lipid levels (90 and 180 g/kg). The experiment was a completely randomized 5 × 2 factorial design. The fish with an initial body weight of 462.53 ± 45.40 g were cultured in a spring water flow‐through system for 77 days. The growth performance was affected by dietary protein and lipid levels. Increase in the dietary protein and lipid resulted in increase in the body lipid and protein contents. The male gonadosomatic index decreased in the groups treated with relatively high levels of protein (390–480 g/kg). The activities of the hepatic amino acid‐catabolizing enzymes—alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase—increased significantly with the increase in the dietary protein level. The activities of the lipogenic enzymes (fatty acid synthetase and glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase) and gluconeogenic enzyme (fructose‐1,6‐bisphosphatase) increased with the increase in the dietary protein level. Further, an increase in the activities of glycolytic enzyme in liver with an increase in the dietary lipid was observed. The variation in some intermediary metabolizing enzymes due to dietary components supports the high‐metabolic adaptability of this species to dietary protein and lipid levels. A diet with 450 g/kg protein and 90 g/kg lipid with 24.56 mg/kJ protein/energy ratio maximizes the growth, feed efficiency and gonadal development.  相似文献

The effect of dietary formic acid on the availability of phosphorus (P) from a fishmeal-based diet by rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum), reared in brackish water (5–6 g L−1) was determined. Diets containing a low amount of P (6.0 mg P g−1 dry matter) were acidified with 0, 4 and 10 mL kg−1 formic acid and fed to trout (average weight, 520 g) for 4 weeks. The measured pH of the diets were 6.3, 5.8 and 5.3, respectively. The intestinal solubility of P and the digestibility of P were measured by stripping the faecal matter from the fish. The apparent digestibility coefficient (ADC) of P significantly ( P < 0.05) increased from 69.5% to 75.0% of the basal diet in fish fed diets containing 10 mL kg−1 formic acid. The solubility of P in the intestine was highly variable within each treatment, and the differences were not significant. The pH of intestinal content increased with the increase in dietary formic acid concentration. The ADC of magnesium and calcium also showed a significant ( P < 0.05) increase with the acidification of diet by formic acid.  相似文献
