Visual and chemical determinations revealed that the individual optical isomers of astaxanthin were more efficacious than canthaxanthin in pigmenting the flesh of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri, Richardson). The visual assessment of the astaxanthin pigmentation by means of a colour scale correlated well with the chemical determination. The same utilization was found for all three astaxanthin isomers, (3S, 3′S)-, (3R, 3′S)-, (3R, 3′R)-astaxanthin and a 1 : 2 : 1 mixture of the three isomers.No epimerization took place at the chiral centres of C-3 and C-3′ in astaxanthin. Astaxanthin and canthaxanthin were not interconverted. No metabolites were detected in the flesh.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of the use of astaxanthin alternate feeding on rainbow trout pigmentation in term of astaxanthin serum concentration, muscle colour and astaxanthin muscle retention. Four hundred and fifty rainbow trout were fed the same basal diet supplemented with two different astaxanthin levels, 100, and 200 mg astaxanthin kg? 1 of diet, hereafter designated as AX100 and AX200, respectively. An additional astaxanthin-free (AX0) diet was used. The experimental treatments were as follows: (1) REF = AX100 diet at each meal each day, served as reference; (2) SD1 = AX100 diet at each meal the first day followed by AX0 diet at each meal every second day; (3) SD2 = AX100 diet and AX0 diet in alternate meals each day; (4) R2 = AX200 diet and AX0 diet in alternate meals each day; (5) R4 = AX200 diet at the first meal the first day followed by AX0 diet at the second meal the first day and at each meal every second day. Fish were fed the experimental feeding schedule for 42 days.At the end of the experiment there were no significant differences among fish fed the different feeding schedules in term of final mean weight, specific growth rate and feed efficiency ratio. SD2 fish group displayed the highest (P < 0.05) astaxanthin serum concentration and the R4 fish group the lowest one. REF and R2 fish groups showed similar astaxanthin serum concentrations. Muscle chroma showed the most pronounced effect. It increased significantly for all fish groups during the experiment. At the end of the experiment REF and R2 fish groups displayed higher values than SD1 and R4 fish groups. Muscle astaxanthin concentrations increased significantly during the experiment whatever the astaxanthin feeding schedule. At the end of the experiment, the highest muscle astaxanthin concentration was recorded for R2 fish group while the lowest was noted for R4 fish group. Except for SD1 and R4 fish groups, muscle astaxanthin retention decreased significantly during the experiment. At the end of the experiment, muscle astaxanthin retention coefficients for SD2 fish group were significantly higher than those for REF fish group. The results reported here provide further evidence of the potential applicability of alternate astaxanthin feeding on rainbow trout pigmentation. Extending the optimisation of the SD2 treatment will therefore be subject for future studies. Its application could result in cost saving in the fish farming industry.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of feed intake on the apparent digestibility coefficient (ADC) of astaxanthin including the major geometrical E/Z-isomers in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Atlantic salmon (50 per pen, initial weight 2 kg) were kept in 125 m3 sea pens equipped with an excess feed collection system to monitor and quantify accurate feed intake, and subjected to three treatments in triplicate. All salmon were fed the same diet supplemented with 47 mg astaxanthin per kg. Two treatments were fed full or restricted rations corresponding to 100 or 40% of apparent satiation, respectively, with a switch in ration between two consecutive feeding periods (14 and 3 d, respectively), whereas the control treatment was fed to 100% of apparent satiation during both periods. The corresponding feed intakes were 0.45 and 0.16% of biomass for salmon fed 100% or 40% of apparent satiation, respectively. Faeces were collected by stripping at the end of each feeding period and ADCs of astaxanthin were determined by an indirect method using yttrium oxide (Y2O3) as an indigestible marker. Feed intake and astaxanthin ADC were negatively correlated (R2 = 0.64; p = 0.0001). Astaxanthin ADC was 1.5 times higher at the low compared to the high ration level (p < 0.05), but due to the low feed intake the total amount of digested astaxanthin was only about 50% of that in fish fed to satiation. The ADCs of the all-E and 13Z-isomers of astaxanthin were similar and considerably higher than for 9Z-astaxanthin (p < 0.05). The amount of digested astaxanthin/TGC (estimated thermal growth coefficient) decreased with increasing feed intake. Estimates of astaxanthin retention indicated that a higher feed intake cause a lower muscle concentration of astaxanthin compared to that obtained at low feed intakes due to the lower digestibility. Blood samples were collected at the end of the second feeding period to examine possible relationships between plasma carotenoids, feed intake and ADC. Salmon without faeces in the hindgut had a lower plasma astaxanthin concentration compared to salmon with faeces in the hindgut (p < 0.05). In conclusion, feed intake and astaxanthin ADC are negatively correlated, and may thus explain reductions in muscle retention of Atlantic salmon.  相似文献

The red yeast Phaffia rhodozyma has possible application as a component of diets for use in aquaculture. Its primary value lies in its content of astaxanthin, which is much higher (5–50 times) than that found in crustacean meals. When fed to rainbow trout, the deposition of astaxanthin in the fish flesh was dependent on the proper preparation of yeast cells before their inclusion into the feed. No astaxanthin was nutritionally available from intact yeast. If P. rhodozyma was mechanically ruptured its pigments were transferred to the flesh of rainbow trout, coloring it salmon-pink. The most efficient deposition of astaxanthin in trout occurred when the cell wall of P. rhodozyma was partially removed by enzymatic digestion.The proxiamte composition, amino acid content, fatty acid profile, and astaxanthin content were determined for P. rhodozyma. When grown under the conditions used in this study, P. rhodozyma has a low protein content (～25%) and a high total lipid content (～17%) compared with most other microorganisms. Its amino acid profile is well balanced but is deficient in methionine. The predominant fatty acids present in the yeast are oleic, linoleic and palmitic acids.  相似文献

The deposition of natural, optically active, astaxanthin fatty acid esters in rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss ) was studied. Mono-esterified and di-esterified (3 S ,3' S ) astaxanthin were purified from the green microalga Haematococcus pluvialis and incorporated into extruded diets and compared with diets containing synthetic racemic astaxanthin (Carophyll Pink) and a total carotenoid extract from the alga. All sources of astaxanthin achieved >4 mg kg−1 in the white muscle after 6 weeks feeding. No significant difference ( P  > 0.05) between the deposition of astaxanthin or total carotenoid for the different diets was observed. Other xanthophylls, namely lutein, zeaxanthin and idoxanthin were found in the white muscle of rainbow trout fed all diets and together accounted for 10–14% of total carotenoid. Astaxanthin was deposited in the white muscle in the stereochemical form administered in the diet, i.e. racemic astaxanthin for Carophyll Pink and ˜100% (3 S ,3' S )-astaxanthin for the algal sources. In contrast, epimerization of (3 S ,3' S ) astaxanthin from the alga was observed for the astaxanthin esters deposited in the skin of rainbow trout, with a ratio close to 1.0:2.0:1.0 (3 S ,3' S :3 R ,3' S :3 R ,3' R ).  相似文献

The absorption of astaxanthin from diets (30 mg kg?1 inclusion) supplemented with either unesterified astaxanthin; isolated astaxanthin monoesters, diesters or a cell‐free carotenoid extract from Haematococcus pluvialis were studied in rainbow trout (>200 g). No significant differences (P > 0.05) were recorded in the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) (≈60–65%) between astaxanthin sources. However, following consumption of a single meal, peak serum astaxanthin levels at 32 h (≈1.0–1.6 μg mL?1) were significantly higher (P < 0.05) in fish fed unesterified astaxanthin and astaxanthin monoester, compared to fish fed astaxanthin diester and the cell free extract. However, no significant differences (P > 0.05) were recorded in serum astaxanthin uptake rates between sources of astaxanthin. Results suggest that the extent of carotenoid esterification negatively influences the peak serum levels of astaxanthin in rainbow trout.  相似文献

The kinetics of astaxanthin degradation and lipid oxidation in shrimp oil from hepatopancreas of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) as affected by storage temperature were studied. When shrimp oil was incubated at different temperatures (4, 30, 45 and 60 °C) for 16 h, the rate constants (k) of astaxanthin degradation and lipid oxidation in shrimp oil increased with increasing temperatures (p < 0.05). Thus, astaxanthin degradation and lipid oxidation in shrimp oil were augmented at high temperature. When shrimp oils with different storage conditions (illumination, oxygen availability and temperature) were stored for up to 40 days, astaxanthin contents in all samples decreased throughout storage (p < 0.05). All factors were able to enhance astaxanthin degradation during 40 days of storage. With increasing storage time, the progressive formation of primary and secondary oxidation products were found in all samples as evidenced by the increases in both peroxide values (PV) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) (p < 0.05). Light, air and temperatures therefore had the marked effect on astaxanthin degradation and lipid oxidation in shrimp oils during the extended storage.  相似文献

This study examined the effects of dietary esterified astaxanthin concentration on coloration, accumulation of carotenoids, and the composition of carotenoids over time in the skin of Amphiprion ocellaris. Juveniles of 30 days-post-hatch were fed 40, 60, 80, or 160 mg esterified astaxanthin per kg diet (mg kg?1) for 90 days. Skin coloration was analyzed using the hue, saturation, and luminosity model. Increased astaxanthin concentrations and duration on diet lead to improvements in skin color, that is, lower hues (~27–29 to ~14–17; redder fish), higher saturation (~77 to ~87 %), and lower luminosity (~43 to ~35 %). Fish fed 80 and 160 mg kg?1 astaxanthin feed showed significant coloration improvements over fish fed lower astaxanthin feeds. Increasing both dietary astaxanthin concentration and time on the feed resulted in significant increases in total skin carotenoid concentration (0.033–0.099 μg mm?2). Furthermore, there was a significant linear relationship between hue and total skin carotenoid concentration. Compositionally, free astaxanthin and 4-hydroxyzeaxanthin were the major skin carotenoids. 4-hydroxyzeaxanthin was previously unreported for A. ocellaris. Carotenoid composition was affected by duration on diet. Fraction 4-hydroxyzeaxanthin increased by ~15 %, while free astaxanthin decreased equivalently. The transition from 4-hydroxyzeaxanthin to free astaxanthin appears to follow a reductive pathway. Results suggest that managing coloration in the production of A. ocellaris juveniles requires manipulation of both dietary astaxanthin concentration and period of exposure to astaxanthin containing diet. In order to achieve more orange–red-colored fish, feeding 80–160 mg kg?1 esterified astaxanthin for an extended duration is recommended.  相似文献

In this study, carotenoid contents of Haematococcus pluvialis during outdoor high light cultivation were measured, moreover, changes of astaxanthin geometrical isomers and biotic factors which may affect isomerization were investigated. During the incubation, contents of both astaxanthin and its precursors (zeaxanthin and canthaxanthin) increased over time, whereas the relative content of lutein decreased. Contents of all astaxanthin isomers increased, while the proportion of different astaxanthin geometrical isomers fluctuated during the incubation. All‐trans‐astaxanthin of total astaxanthin (T/A) was higher during the astaxanthin accumulation phase than that in the cell transformation phase, which was in contrast to results of 13‐cis‐astaxanthin of total astaxanthin (13C/A) and 9‐cis‐astaxanthin of total astaxanthin (9C/A). Farnesyl diphosphate synthase (trans (2E,6E)‐FPPS, EC2.5.1.10) and geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase (GGPS, EC2.5.1.29), the key proteins involved in geometrical isomerization, decreased during the astaxanthin accumulation phase. Moreover, the presence of cis (2Z,6E)‐FPPS was firstly confirmed in H. pluvialis by HPLC‐MS/MS shotgun method. The results indicated the biotic factor (trans‐FPPS, cis‐FPPS and GGPS) may play an important role in astaxanthin geometrical isomerization of H. pluvialis, but not a crucial role. This study would help in optimizing the regulation of astaxanthin geometrical isomers in H. pluvialis, with great significance in theory and production.  相似文献

Pigmentation enhancement in cultured red sea bream, Chrysophrys major, was investigated using Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, and a mysid, Neomysis sp., as a source of astaxanthin. Diets fortified with processed Antarctic krill (krill meal) and its acetone extract, containing 0.82–4.92 mg carotenoids/100 g dry weight, and raw krill and raw mysid supplemented diets, containing about 2.00 mg carotenoids/100 g wet weight, were formulated and tested for carotenoid deposition. The rate of carotenoid deposition in fish fed with raw krill and raw mysid was significantly higher and resulted in distinct pigmentation. The groups fed with the krill meal and acetone extract diets showed varied concentrations of skin carotenoids and resulted in faint pigmentation. Pigmented fish then fed on a carotenoid-free diet for the same length of time showed no apparent differences in the skin pigmentation although the detectable amounts of carotenoids varied. The bream converted some of the dietary astaxanthin to skin tunaxanthin.  相似文献

Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, fitted with permanent dorsal aorta cannulae were fed diets containing either 0, 30, 60 mg kg?1 or combinations of astaxanthin and canthaxanthin, with the aim of comparing the uptake efficiencies to blood of the two pigments and evaluating possible interactions during absorption when formulated in the same diet. Given either astaxanthin or canthaxanthin in separate diets, at dietary levels of <30 mg kg?1, an identical linear relationship (R2 = 0.97) between dietary levels and blood concentrations was observed for both carotenoids. At dietary astaxanthin inclusions above 30 mg kg?1, blood astaxanthin concentration approached saturation at an average level of 1.2 ± 0.04 μg mL?1 (arithmetic mean ± SD), whereas blood levels of canthaxanthin continued to increase linearly throughout the inclusion range tested (0–60 mg kg?1). When both carotenoids were presented in the same diet, a reduction in the absorption efficiency of both pigments was observed (P < 0.05). This manifested itself as a lower level in blood than the level observed when each carotenoid was administered separately. The negative interaction was most prominent for astaxanthin, the maximum average blood saturation level of which fell (P < 0.05) to 0.73 ± 0.03 μg mL?1 (arithmetic mean ± SD). Our data support the conclusion that at higher dietary inclusions, canthaxanthin is more efficiently absorbed from the digestive tract into the blood of S. salar than astaxanthin.  相似文献

Assessment of flesh colour in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L.   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The degree of pigmentation in muscle of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., fillets of fish that were fed eight diets fortified with 10, 20, 40, 60, 80.100, 150 and 200 mg astaxanthin kg?1 and a non-supplemented control diet from 3 to 21 months was assessed using different methods. A tristimulus colorimeter (Minolta Chroma Meter) was used to measure the colour composition of the fillets instrumentally. The colour was also determined using the Roche Colour Card for Salmonids. The concentration of astaxanthin in the muscle was measured by chemical analyses. All measurements for colour were done directly on the epaxial muscle anterior to the dorsal fin. The lightness factor (L *). the red/green chromaticity (a*), the yellow/blue chromaticity (b*) and the saturation C* of the colorimetric readings and the Colour Card scores were compared with the chemical analyses. The astaxanthin concentration in the flesh varied from 1 to 10 mg kg?1 and the visual appearance of the fillets varied from yellowish-white to red. The relationship between the a*, b* and C* values and the astaxanthin concentration in the muscle was non-linear. Non-linear regression lines were found between the a* value and the astaxanthin concentration in the flesh (r2= 0.974) and the b* value and the astaxanthin concentration in the flesh (r2= 0.984). The instrument was not able to detect differences in astaxanthin concentration at astaxanthin levels above 3-4 mg kg?1 using the presented method directly on the fillet. The instrument might be useful for rejecting groups of salmon with poor pigmentation. A good linear regression was found between the Colour Card score and the mean astaxanthin concentration in the flesh (r2 - 0.992). The Colour Card provided a better prediction of the astaxanthin concentration at higher astaxanthin levels than the Chroma Meter. None of the methods provided a satisfactory prediction of the astaxanthin concentration in the muscle of individual fish using the presented methods.  相似文献

Atlantic salmon fry hatched from pigment-free eggs and from eggs containing the pigment astaxanthin were fed eleven casein/gelatine-based purified diets with varying levels of astaxanthin, ranging from 0 to 317 mg kg?1, to determine the optimum dietary astaxanthin level for satisfactory growth and survival during the start-feeding period. The fish were fed the experimental diets for a period of 11 weeks. No difference in performance was found between the two types of fry originating from the pigment-free eggs and those containing pigment. However, the dietary astaxanthin concentration was found to have a significant effect on both the growth and the survival of fry. Fish fed diets with astaxanthin concentrations below 5.3 mg kg?1 were found to have marginal growth. In addition, mortality was high in the groups fed diets with astaxanthin concentrations below 1.0 mg kg?1. The specific growth rate (SGR) was also affected by the dietary treatment. The lipid content was higher and the moisture content was lower in the fish fed the diets containing astaxanthin concentrations above 5.3 mg kg?1. The vitamin A and astaxanthin concentrations in whole-body samples of the fry were significantly affected by the dietary level of astaxanthin. A plateau level in whole-body vitamin A concentration was observed at dietary levels of approximately 80 mg astaxanthin kg?1 and higher, while no maximum astaxanthin concentration in whole-body samples was observed within the dietary levels used. The results suggest the need for a minimum dietary astaxanthin concentration of 5.1 mg kg?1 to achieve maximum growth and survival during the start-feeding period. The results indicate a low bioavailability of vitamin A palmitate and acetate and the results also suggest a provitamin A function for astaxanthin during the same period.  相似文献

The effects of dietary astaxanthin supplemented at 0, 40, 80 or 150 mg astaxanthin kg−1 on growth, survival, moult frequency, osmoregulatory capacity (OC) and selected metabolic and haematological variables in Litopenaeus vannamei acclimated to low‐salinity water (3 g L−1) were evaluated. Supplemented astaxanthin at 80 mg kg−1 improved growth, survival and moult frequency in shrimp. The lowest OC was also exhibited in shrimp fed with dietary astaxanthin at 80 mg kg−1. Shrimp haemolymph concentrations of glucose, lactate, haemocyanin and total haemocyte count were all significantly enhanced by feeding the diet supplemented with 80 mg astaxanthin kg−1 compared with shrimp fed with the other diets. On the basis of these results, dietary astaxanthin supplementation of 80 mg kg−1 is recommended for juvenile L. vannamei cultured in low‐salinity water.  相似文献

Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., were fed nine experimental diets containing from 0 to 200 mg astaxanthin per kg?1 for six time periods, ranging from 3 to 21 months, in sea cages at Matre Aquaculture Research Station, Matredal, Norway. The sampled fish had an initial mean weight of 115 g and reached a weight of 3.2 kg at the termination of the experiment. Every third month, 10 fish from each dose and time group were sampled and the astaxanthin concentration in the flesh determined. The amount of astaxanthin in the flesh ranged from 0.7 to 8.9 mg kg?1 at the termination of the experiment. This paper discusses deposition of astaxanthin in the flesh of Atlantic salmon in relation to dietary carotenoid levels in the 0–200 mg kg?1 range and feeding times of 3–21 months. Under the conditions of this experiment, no significant effect on astaxanthin deposition rate could be achieved by increasing the astaxanthin level above 60 mg kg dry feed?1. Atlantic salmon should be fed astaxanthin-supplemented diets during the whole seawater stage in order to obtain maximal astaxanthin level in the flesh.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and bioavailabilities of 14C‐astaxanthin and 14C‐canthaxanthin were studied in the blood of rainbow trout following intra‐arterial (i.a.) and oral (p.o.) administration. Sixteen months old 1 kg trout were cannulated in the dorsal aorta. [6,7,6′,7′‐14C]‐keto‐carotenoids were administered i.a. and p.o. at a dose of 573.5 kBq kg?1 fish body weight for astaxanthin and 836.2 kBq kg?1 fish body weight for canthaxanthin. After i.a. distribution, total body clearance (Cltot) was 17.30±20.29 mL kg?1 of fish h?1 for 14C‐canthaxanthin and 3.30±1.50 mL kg?1 of fish h?1 for 14C‐astaxanthin. The volume of distribution at steady‐state (Vss) was 208.32±124.79 mL kg?1 of fish and 71.84±64.15 mL kg?1 of fish for 14C‐canthaxanthin and 14C‐astaxanthin respectively. Less than 0.4% of the administered radioactivity was recovered in urine. Radioactivity (expressed as percent of the dose) excreted in the bile of fish that received 14C‐canthaxanthin by i.a. route was 20‐fold higher than that observed for fish treated p.o. This ratio was lower for 14C‐astaxanthin (7.6‐fold). The mean keto‐carotenoid bioavailabilities calculated were 10–15% for both compounds. Findings suggest one daily astaxanthin application is preferable, while 12‐h time intervals between applications are preferable for canthaxanthin.  相似文献

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the addition of astaxanthin from red yeast, Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous, in the diets of goldfish, Carassius auratus. The first was designed to investigate the distribution of pigments in different tissues of goldfish and the effect of astaxanthin in the diet. The carotenoid concentration of tissues was not homogenous. The content of pigments in fish caudal fin was the highest followed by those of scales and head. Flesh had the least carotenoid deposition. Fish fed the diet containing 60 mg/kg astaxanthin had increased concentration of pigment in its head (22.6%), scales (45.5%), flesh (31.0%), and fin (21.2%), compared to fish fed basal diet (P < 0.05). Sixty parts per million astaxanthin had no effect on the weight gain and survival rate. High‐performance liquid chromatography analysis showed astaxanthin in its esterified form in goldfish. The second experiment was aimed at determining the dietary level of astaxanthin that improved color of goldfish. Goldfish were fed the same diet supplemented with 0, 10, 20, 40, 60, and 80 mg yeast astaxanthin/kg for 60 d. The deposition of carotenoids in goldfish fed diets supplemented with astaxanthin increased significantly (P < 0.05) after 15 d of feeding compared to that of the fish fed the diet without astaxanthin, but the effect of dosage of astaxanthin in the diets on the color of goldfish was not completely evident until Day 60 (P < 0.05). During the period of 15–45 d, the deposition of pigments in fish did not increase significantly (P > 0.05) in any treatment with the exception of the diet with 40 mg yeast astaxanthin/kg.  相似文献

Two experiments were conducted with Australian snapper Pagrus auratus (Bloch and Schneider, 1801). The first was aimed at determining the dietary level of astaxanthin that improved skin redness (CIE a*values) of farm‐reared snapper. Farmed snapper (ca. 600 g) fed a commercial diet without carotenoids were moved to indoor tanks and fed the same diet supplemented with 0, 36 or 72 mg astaxanthin kg?1 (unesterified form as Carophyll Pink?) for nine weeks. Skin redness (CIE a* values) continued to decrease over time in fish fed the diet without astaxanthin. Snapper fed the diet containing 72 mg astaxanthin kg?1 were significantly more red than fish fed the diet with 36 mg astaxanthin kg?1 three weeks after feeding, but skin redness was similar in both groups of fish after 6 and 9 weeks. The second experiment was designed to investigate the interactive effects of dietary astaxanthin source (unesterified form as Carophyll Pink? or esterified form as NatuRose?; 60 mg astaxanthin kg?1) and degree of shading (0%, 50% and 95% shading from incident radiation) on skin colour (CIE L*a*b*) and skin and fillet astaxanthin content of farmed snapper (ca. 800 g) held in 1 m3 floating cages. After 116 days, there were no significant interactions between dietary treatment and degree of shading for L*, a* or b* skin colour values or the concentration of astaxanthin in the skin. Negligible amounts of astaxanthin were recovered from fillet samples. The addition of shade covers significantly increased skin lightness (L*), possibly by reducing the effect of melanism in the skin, but there was no difference between the lightness of fish held under either 50% or 95% shade cover (P>0.05).  相似文献

Farmed Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus (L.), (n = 2 70) with a wide range of carotenoid muscle pigmentation were produced by feeding astaxanthin at different levels (0-120 mg kg?1 feed). Steaks were scored subjectively for pigment concentration (dark = high score). Internal reflectance spectra were measured with a relatively non-destructive 1-mm-diameter fibre-optic probe. Colour scores were only moderately correlated with reflectance (R = 0.66 and P< 0.01, using data at 500, 610 and 520 nm) because the small-diameter probe had a short light-path through the tissue and was highly responsive to scattering. However, in fish without astaxanthin in their diet, this sensitivity to microstructural causes of scattering revealed that fibre-optic reflectance increased (P < 0.01) with age from 400 nm (r = 0.68) to 440 nm (r = 0.40), and from 530 nm (r = 0.30) to 700 nm (r = 0.56). In agreement with these results, colour scores decreased with age (r = -0.52; P < 0.001; n = 85), as did electrical resistance 24 h post-mortem (r = -0.42 at 120 Hz, r = -0.39 at 1 kHz and r = -0.54 at 10 kHz; P < 0.001). Resistance was correlated with colour score (r = 0.40 and P < 0.001 for resistance at 10 kHz) and with fibre-optic reflectance (R = 0.42 and P < 0.01 for resistance at 120 Hz and 1 kHz versus reflectance from 420 to 680 nm). Thus, without astaxanthin in the diet, muscle colour and tissue integrity at 24 h deteriorated with the age of the fish.  相似文献
