A nine‐week feeding trial was performed to determine the dietary linolenic acid (LNA; 18:3n–3) requirements of juvenile blunt snout bream. Six iso‐nitrogenous, semi‐purified diets were prepared with different concentrations of LNA (0–25 g/kg). Dietary LNA had no significant effects on survival rate. However, final fish weight, weight gain (WG), specific growth rate (SGR) and feed efficiency ratio (FER) increased with increasing dietary LNA concentrations up to 20 g/kg. Dietary LNA increased muscle LNA and total n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) contents, but decreased total saturated fatty acid content. Fish fed 20 g/kg LNA had the highest plasma alkaline phosphatase activity, total protein, albumin and white blood cell count levels. Additionally, fish fed 20 g/kg LNA had higher triglyceride levels than control fish. Plasma glucose increased with increasing dietary LNA concentrations. Superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities significantly increased with increasing dietary LNA concentrations up to 15 g/kg. Based on SGR and FER, the optimal dietary LNA requirements of juvenile blunt snout bream were 17.5 and 15.6 g/kg respectively.  相似文献

An 8‐week feeding trial was conducted to determine the optimum dietary methionine (Met) requirement of juvenile Pseudobagrus ussuriensis with an initial average weight of 0.60 g reared in indoor flow‐through and aerated aquaria. Six isonitrogenous (430 g kg?1 protein) and isolipidic (50 g kg?1 lipid) test diets were formulated to contain graded levels of crystalline L‐methionine (4.9, 9.0, 11.8, 14.2, 18.1 and 20.8 g kg?1 dry diets, respectively) at a constant dietary cystine level of 2.5 g kg?1 dry diets. Equal amino acid nitrogen was maintained by replacing methionine with non‐essential amino acid mixture. Fish were randomly allotted to 18 aquaria (1.0 × 0.5 × 0.8 m) with 50 fish to each glass aquarium. Fish were fed twice daily (08:00 and 16:00) to apparent satiation. No significant difference was observed in survival of fish (84.67–91.33%). Specific growth rate (SGR), weight gain (WG), feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein productive value (PPV) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) were significantly affected by different dietary methionine levels (P < 0.05). WG, SGR PPV and PER increased, while FCR decreased with increasing dietary methionine level from 4.9 to 11.8 g kg?1 (P < 0.05). However, with further increase from 11.8 to 20.8 g kg?1, WG, SGR PPV and PER significantly decreased, FCR increased (P < 0.05). The whole body and muscle composition were affected by different dietary methionine levels (P < 0.05). Condition factor (CF) increased with increasing dietary methionine levels up to 11.8 g kg?1 (P < 0.05) and after 11.8 g kg?1 methionine diet, but not significant, declines were observed (P > 0.05). Hepatosomatic index (HSI) of the 4.9, 9.0, 11.8 and 14.2 g kg?1 Met diets was significantly higher than that of fish fed diets 18.1 and 20.8 g kg?1 Met diets (P < 0.05). Viscerosomatic index (VSI) of the 4.9, 9.0 and 11.8 g kg?1 Met diets was significantly higher than that of fish fed diets 14.2, 18.1 and 20.8 g kg?1 Met diets (P < 0.05). Quadratic regression analysis of WG and PER against dietary methionine levels indicated that the optimal dietary methionine requirement for maximum growth and feed utilization of juvenile Pseudobagrus ussuriensis was 14.3 and 14.1 g kg?1 dry diet (35.3 and 34.8 g kg?1 dietary protein), respectively, in the presence of 2.5 g kg?1 dry diets cystine.  相似文献

An 8‐week feeding trial was performed to investigate effects of dietary selenium (sodium selenite, Na2SeO3; selenium nanoparticle, Nano‐Se; selenium yeast, Se‐yeast) on the growth, selenium status, antioxidant activities, muscle composition and meat quality of blunt snout bream. Na2SeO3 and Nano‐Se were supplemented at 0.2 mg Se kg?1, and Se‐yeast was supplemented at 0.1, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 mg Se kg?1 in basal diet; no Se was added as a control. The results indicated that groups of 0.2 and 0.4 mg kg?1 Se‐yeast had significantly higher weight gain and Nano‐Se, 0.2, 0.4 mg kg?1 Se‐yeast had significantly lower feed conversation ratio compared with the control group. The Se concentrations of whole body, muscle and liver linearly increased with increasing dietary Se‐yeast levels. Group of 0.4 mg kg?1 Se‐yeast significantly increased activities of catalase and glutathione peroxidase. Muscle colour of Nano‐Se, 0.2, 0.4 mg kg?1 Se‐yeast groups, the water‐holding capacity of 0.4, 0.8 mg kg?1 Se‐yeast groups showed significant differences compared with the control group. The results suggest that Se‐yeast and Nano‐Se had a better growth performance than Na2SeO3 at 0.2 mg Se kg?1, and supplementing appropriate Se‐yeast in diet can increase antioxidant activities and enhance meat quality of blunt snout bream.  相似文献

This study evaluated the effect of dietary thiamin on growth performance, feed utilization and non‐specific immune response for juvenile Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. Six isonitrogenous and isolipidic practical diets were formulated with graded thiamin levels of 6.9, 32.7, 54.2, 78.1, 145.1 and 301.5 mg kg?1 of dry diet, respectively. Each diet was randomly assigned to triplicate groups of 30 juvenile shrimp and provided four times each day to apparent satiation. Weight gain (WG) and specific growth rate (SGR) of the shrimp were significantly influenced by the dietary thiamin levels, the maximal WG and SGR occurred at 54.2 mg kg?1 dietary thiamin level. However, with further increase in dietary thiamin level from 54.2 to 301.5 mg kg?1, the WG and SGR significantly decreased. Shrimp fed the 54.2 mg kg?1 thiamin diet exhibited higher feed efficiency, protein efficiency ratio and protein productive value than those fed the other diets. Dry matter and protein content in whole body were significantly affected by the dietary thiamin levels. Thiamin concentration in hepatopancreas significantly increased when the dietary thiamin level increased from 6.9 to 145.1 mg kg?1. The total protein, glucose, triacylglycerol and cholesterol contents in hemolymph were not significantly affected by the dietary thiamin levels. Dietary thiamin had significantly influenced superoxide dismutase, catalase and lysozyme activities in hemolymph. Results of this study indicated that the optimal dietary thiamin requirements estimated using a two‐slope broken‐line model based on WG and thiamin concentration in hepatopancreas were 44.66 and 152.83 mg kg?1, respectively.  相似文献

This study investigated the effects of dietary niacin on growth performance, feed utilization and non‐specific immune response in juvenile Pacific white shrimp. Six isonitrogenous and isolipidic practical diets were formulated with graded niacin levels of 10.9, 65.8, 121.2, 203.4, 387.5 and 769.3 mg kg?1 of dry diet, respectively. Results indicated that per cent weight gain (WG), specific growth rate (SGR), feed efficiency (FE), protein efficiency ratio (PER) and protein productive value (PPV) were significantly influenced by the dietary niacin levels. The maximum WG and SGR occurred at 121.2 mg kg?1 niacin diet. However, survival and proximate composition of whole body were not significantly affected by the dietary niacin levels. Dietary niacin levels had no significant effects on the total protein, glucose, triacylglycerol and cholesterol contents in the haemolymph. The activity of catalase and lysozyme in the haemolymph was significantly affected by dietary niacin levels. Based on a two‐slope regression analysis of SGR against dietary niacin level, the dietary niacin requirement of juvenile Pacific white shrimp was 109.6 mg kg?1.  相似文献

An 8‐week feeding trial was conducted to determine the optimal dietary arginine requirement for juvenile swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus. Six isonitrogenous and isolipidic experimental diets were formulated to contain graded arginine levels which ranged from 15.9 to 33.0 g kg?1. Each diet was randomly assigned to triplicate groups of 60 juvenile swimming crabs (4.72 ± 0.12 g). The results indicated that dietary arginine had significant effects on weight gain (WG), specific growth rate (SGR), protein productive value, feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio. Weight gain and SGR significantly increased with the dietary arginine increasing from 15.9 to 27.4 g kg?1, while with the further increasing from 27.4 to 33.0 g kg?1, WG and SGR did not increase significantly. Maximum arginine, proline and total essential amino acid contents in muscle were observed in 27.4 g kg?1 group diet. The swimming crab fed the diet with lower dietary arginine level showed higher AST and lower ALT in the serum. Crab fed with the lower dietary arginine level had significantly lower ALT in the serum than the other groups. Haemolymph indexes were significantly affected by the dietary arginine level except for the cholesterol concentration, and the highest values were all found in 27.4 g kg?1 group diet. The two slope broken‐line model using SGR showed that the optimal dietary arginine requirement was 27.7 g kg?1 of the dry matter (56.0 g kg?1 dietary protein) for juvenile swimming crab.  相似文献

A total of 630 juvenile Chinese sucker, with an average initial weight of 1.72 ± 0.05 g, were fed seven diets for 56 days to study the effect of dietary methionine levels on growth, feed utilization, body composition and haematological parameters on juvenile Chinese sucker. Diet 1 using fish meal as the sole protein source and diets 2–7 using fish meal and fermented soybean meal as intact protein sources supplemented with crystalline amino acids contained six levels of l ‐methionine ranging from 6.4 to 18.9 g kg?1 of dry diet at a constant dietary cystine level of 3.7 g kg?1. Each diet was randomly assigned to three aquaria. Results indicated that the highest weight gain, specific growth rate (SGR), feed efficiency ratio, protein efficiency ratio and protein productive value occurred at 13.9 g methionine kg?1 diet among the methionine supplemented dietary groups, beyond which they showed declining tendency. The whole body and muscle protein contents of juvenile Chinese sucker were positively correlated with dietary methionine level, while muscle lipid content was negatively correlated with it. The total essential amino acids content of muscle was increased significantly with increasing dietary methionine level from 6.4 to 13.9 g kg?1 (P < 0.05). Apparent digestibility coefficients of dietary protein were significantly affected by dietary treatments. Serum protein, cholesterol and triacylglycerol increased with increasing dietary methionine levels, but showed a relatively lower value for fish fed the 18.9 g methionine kg?1 diet. Quadratic regression analysis of SGR against dietary methionine level indicated that optimal dietary methionine requirement for juvenile Chinese sucker was 14.1 g kg?1 of the diet in the presence of 3.7 g kg?1 cystine (corresponding to 32.0 g kg?1 of dietary protein on a dry‐weight basis).  相似文献

A 10‐week feeding trial was conducted in a flow‐through system to determine dietary choline requirement for juvenile gibel carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) (5.5 ± 0.1 g). Purified basal diet was formulated using vitamin‐free casein as protein source. Choline chloride was supplemented to the basal diet to formulate seven diets containing 76.1, 163, 356, 969, 1457, 2024 and 4400 mg kg?1 choline. Dietary methionine was 0.58%, less than the requirement (0.69%). The results indicated that specific growth rate (SGR) was higher in the fish fed 2024 mg kg?1 diet than the control group. Feeding rate and feed efficiency were not significantly affected. Protein productive value increased as dietary choline increased from 76.1 to 2024 mg kg?1 diet and was lower in the fish fed the diet containing 4400 mg choline kg?1 diet. Serum high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C) and total cholesterol significantly increased with increasing dietary choline up to 1457 mg kg?1, and no differences were found with further increase. Fish carcass fat contents decreased significantly with increased dietary choline. Hepatic lipid contents increased with dietary choline up to 1457 mg kg?1 and then decreased. Quadric regression of SGR and plasma HDL‐C indicted dietary choline requirement was 2500 and 2667 mg kg?1 diet, respectively.  相似文献

A 12‐week feeding trial was conducted to determine dietary choline requirement for juvenile Megalobrama amblycephala. The basal diet was formulated to contain 310 g kg?1 diet from vitamin‐free casein and gelatine. Choline chloride was supplemented to the basal diet to formulate six purified diets containing 0, 250, 500, 1000, 2000 and 4000 mg kg?1, respectively. Each diet was randomly fed to quadrupled groups of Megalobrama amblycephala with initial average weight 1.84 ± 0.04 g in a flow‐through system. Results showed weight gain was increased significantly with increasing dietary choline levels (P < 0.01). Lipid content of liver decreased significantly as dietary choline concentration increased (P < 0.01), whereas lipid content of dressed carcass showed opposite trend (P < 0.01), and lipid content of whole‐body was unaffected by dietary choline supplementation. Broken‐ line regression of weight gain, liver and muscle choline concentration showed choline requirements of Megalobrama amblycephala of 1198, 1525 and 1365 mg kg?1, respectively. In addition, dietary choline supplementation significantly improved lipid content of dressed carcass but not the content of whole body of blunt snout bream.  相似文献

A 10‐week feeding trial was conducted to estimate the optimum dietary manganese requirement for juvenile cobia, Rachycentron canadum L. The basal diet was formulated to contain 501 g kg?1 crude protein from vitamin‐free casein, gelatin and fish protein concentrate. Manganese sulphate was added to the basal diet at 0 (control group), 6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 mg Mn kg?1 diet providing 5.98, 7.23, 16.05, 23.87, 28.87 and 41.29 mg Mn kg?1 diet, respectively. Each diet was randomly fed to three replicate groups of cobia for 10 weeks, and each tank was stocked with 30 fish (initial weight, 6.27 ± 0.03 g). The manganese concentration in rearing water was monitored during the feeding period and was < 0.01 mg L?1. Dietary manganese level significantly influenced survival ratio (SR), specific growth ratio (SGR), feed efficiency ratio (FER) and the manganese concentrations in the whole body, vertebra and liver of cobia. When the dietary manganese level rose from 5.98 mg kg?1 to 23.87 mg kg?1, the superoxide dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15.1.1) activities in liver also increased (P < 0.05). But there was no significant change in SOD activities for the groups fed with diets containing manganese level higher than 23.87 mg kg?1. On the basis of broken‐line regression of SGR, manganese concentration in whole body and vertebra the manganese requirements of juvenile cobia were 21.72 mg kg?1, 22.38 mg kg?1 and 24.93 mg kg?1 diet in the form of manganese sulphate, respectively.  相似文献

A growth trial was conducted to examine the effect of dietary digestible energy (DE) content on methionine (Met) utilization and requirement in juvenile Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Ten iso‐nitrogenous (288 g kg?1 protein) practical diets, with two DE levels (10.9 MJ kg?1; 12.4 MJ kg?1) and five methionine supplementation levels (0, 1, 2, 4 and 6 g kg?1), were hand‐fed twice daily to triplicate groups of Nile tilapia (initial body weight 8.95 ± 0.06 g) for 8 weeks. Weight gain (WG) and specific growth rate (SGR) increased significantly with increasing dietary methionine concentration at the same DE content (P < 0.001). At the same dietary methionine level, WG and SGR of fish fed high‐DE diets were significantly higher than that of fish fed low‐DE diets (P = 0.0001), although no interaction was found between dietary DE and methionine supplementation. Based on quadratic regression analysis between dietary methionine concentration and weight gain, optimal methionine requirement for maximum growth, expressed as g Met required kg?1 diet (low‐ versus high‐DE diets), increased as diet DE concentration increased (7.34 versus 9.90 g kg?1 diet, respectively; with cysteine 4.70 g kg?1 diet). The results indicated that diet DE content affects methionine utilization and requirement in juvenile Nile tilapia, fish fed high‐DE diets required more methionine for maximum growth.  相似文献

Two experiments were conducted to quantify the dietary thiamin (experiment I) and pyridoxine (experiment II) requirements of fingerling Cirrhinus mrigala for 16 weeks. In experiment I, dietary thiamin requirement was determined by feeding seven casein–gelatin‐based diets (400 g kg?1 CP; 18.69 kJ g?1 GE) with graded levels of thiamin (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 mg kg?1 diet) to triplicate groups of fish (6.15 ± 0.37 cm; 1.89 ± 0.12 g). Fish fed diet with 2 mg kg?1 thiamin had highest specific growth rate (SGR), protein retention (PR), RNA/DNA ratio, haemoglobin (Hb), haematocrit (Hct), RBCs and best feed conversion ratio (FCR). However, highest liver thiamin concentration was recorded in fish fed 4 mg thiamin kg?1 diet. Broken‐line analysis of SGR, PR and liver thiamin concentrations exhibited the thiamin requirement in the range of 1.79–3.34 mg kg?1 diet (0.096–0.179 μg thiamin kJ?1 gross energy). In experiment II, six casein–gelatin‐based diets (400 g kg?1 CP; 18.69 kJ g?1 GE) containing graded levels of pyridoxine (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 mg kg?1 diet) were fed to triplicate groups of fish (6.35 ± 0.37 cm; 1.97 ± 0.12 g). Fish fed diet containing 6 mg kg?1 pyridoxine showed best SGR, FCR, PR, RNA/DNA ratio, Hb, Hct and RBCs, whereas maximum liver pyridoxine concentration was recorded in fish fed 8 mg kg?1 dietary pyridoxine. Broken‐line analysis of SGR, PR and liver pyridoxine concentrations reflected the pyridoxine requirement from 5.63 to 8.61 mg kg?1 diet. Data generated during this study would be useful in formulating thiamin‐ and pyridoxine‐balanced feeds for the intensive culture of this fish.  相似文献

An 8‐week feeding experiment was conducted to quantify the dietary isoleucine requirement of fingerling Indian major carp, Labeo rohita (3.50 ± 0.04 cm; 0.40 ± 0.02 g) using amino acid test diets (400 g kg−1 crude protein; 17.90 kJ g−1 gross energy) containing casein, gelatin and l ‐crystalline amino acids. Six dietary treatments supplemented with graded levels of isoleucine (7.5, 10.0, 12.5, 15.0, 17.5 and 20.0 g kg−1), in gradations of 2.5 g kg−1 diet, were fed to triplicate groups of fingerlings to apparent satiation divided over two feedings at 07:00 and 17:30 h. Performance of the fish was evaluated on the basis of live weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein efficiency ratio (PER), specific growth rate (SGR) and protein productive value (PPV). Statistical analysis of live weight gain, FCR, PER, SGR and PPV reflected significant differences among treatments. Live weight gain and conversion efficiencies were best with isoleucine at 15.0 g kg−1 of diet. Live weight gain, FCR, PER, SGR and PPV data were also analysed using second‐degree polynomial regression analysis to obtain more accurate isoleucine requirement estimate which was found to be at 15.9, 15.3, 15.2, 15.8 and 15.7 g kg−1 of dry diet, corresponding to 39.8, 38.3, 38.0, 39.5 and 39.3 g kg−1 of dietary protein respectively. Based on the quadratic regression analysis of the live weight gain, FCR, PER, SGR and PPV, the optimum level of isoleucine for fingerling L. rohita is in the range of 15.2–15.9 g kg−1 of dry diet, corresponding to 38.0–39.8 g kg−1 of dietary protein. Maximum body protein, minimum moisture and fat were noted at 15.0 g kg−1 of dietary isoleucine while the body ash remained constant among all the treatment levels. No mortality was recorded during the duration of the experiment.  相似文献

A 16‐week feeding trial was conducted to assess the effects of replacing fish meal (FM) with cottonseed meal (CM) on the growth performance, feed utilization, plasma biochemical composition and target of rapamycin (TOR) pathway gene expression of juvenile blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala). Five isonitrogenous (36% crude protein) and isoenergetic (16 MJ kg?1) diets with graded replacing levels of CM (replacing 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% FM with CM) and similar lysine and methionine concentrations were fed to triplicate groups of fish. Results revealed that specific growth rate (SGR), feed intake and protein efficiency ratio (PER) of group fed with diets replacing FM with CM up to 50% were significantly higher than others (P < 0.05). However, final body weight and feed conversion ratio (FCR) remained similar up to 25% and thereafter significantly decreased and increased, respectively, as the replacement level increased (P < 0.05). Replacement levels significantly decreased hepatosomatic index and viscerosomatic index (P < 0.05), but did not significantly affect condition factor and whole body compositions. Free gossypol mainly accumulated in liver and significantly increased in diets CM75 and CM100 than CM0 (P < 0.05). Replacement significantly influenced plasma urea contents (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, increasing replacement of FM with CM in diets increased insulin‐like growth factor I (IGF‐1) gene expression in liver of blunt snout bream. Target of rapamycin (TOR) gene expression in diet CM100 was significantly lower than that in diets CM0 and CM75, while the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E‐binding protein 2 (4E‐BP2) gene expression was not affected by the replacement level of CM in diets. Therefore, based on final body weight and FCR, it suggested that up to 25% of FM (150 g kg?1 in basal diet) could be replaced by CM in diets, which was 112.5 g kg?1 FM and 192.9 g kg?1 CM, for juvenile blunt snout bream.  相似文献

An 11‐week growth trial was conducted to determine dietary myo‐inositol (MI) requirement for juvenile gibel carp (Carassius auratus gibelio). Myo‐inositol was supplemented to the basal diet to formulate six purified diets containing 1, 56, 107, 146, 194 and 247 mg MI kg?1 diet, respectively. Each diet was fed to triplicate groups of juvenile gibel carp (initial body weight 3.38 ± 0.27 g, mean ± SD) in a flow‐through system. The diets were randomly assigned to different fish tanks. Fish fed ≥ 107 mg MI kg?1 diet had significantly higher weight gain (WG), feed efficiency (FE) and protein efficiency ratio than those fed 1 mg MI kg?1 diet. Fish fed ≥ 56 mg MI kg?1 diet had higher feeding rate and survival compared with fish fed 1 mg MI kg?1 diet. Dietary supplemental inositol did not affect fish liver inositol concentration. Fish fed ≥ 56 mg MI kg?1 diet had higher body dry matter, crude protein and gross energy and lower hepatosomatic index than fish fed 1 mg MI kg?1 diet. Dietary inositol supplementation decreased fish body ash. Quadratic regression of weight gain indicated that the myo‐inositol requirement to maximum growth for juvenile gibel carp was 165.3 mg MI kg?1 diet.  相似文献

A 12‐week feeding trial was conducted in eighteen 70 L indoor polyvinyl circular troughs provided with a water flow‐through system (1–1.5 L min?1) at 28 ± 1 °C to evaluate the dietary tryptophan requirement of fingerling Catla catla (3.45 ± 0.24 cm; 0.60 ± 0.13 g). Six casein‐gelatin‐based amino acid test diets (330 g kg?1 crude protein; 13.6 kJ g?1 digestible energy) containing graded levels of L‐tryptophan (1.0, 1.4, 1.9, 2.3, 2.8, 3.4 g kg?1 dry diet) were fed to triplicate groups of fish near to satiation at 08:00, 12:30 and 17:30 h. Absolute weight gain, feed conversion ratio, protein gain, RNA/DNA ratio, hepatosomatic index, viscerosomatic index, condition factor and haematological indices improved with the increasing levels of tryptophan from 1.0 to 2.3 g kg?1 of dry diet. Significantly higher carcass protein was obtained at 2.3 g tryptophan per kilogram of the dry diet. Exponential analysis of absolute weight gain, feed conversion ratio, protein gain and RNA/DNA ratio against dietary tryptophan levels at 95% maximum and minimum responses displayed the tryptophan requirement at 2.5, 2.3, 2.5 and 2.1 g kg?1 dry diet, respectively. Inclusion of dietary tryptophan in the range of 2.1–2.5 g kg?1 dry diet, equivalent to 6.4–7.6 g kg?1 dietary protein, is recommended in formulating tryptophan‐balanced feed for the culture of this fish species.  相似文献

A feeding trial was conducted to determine effects of dietary inosine on growth, immune responses, oxidative stress resistance and intestinal morphology of juvenile red sea bream. A semi‐purified basal diet supplemented with 0 (D1, control), 2 g kg?1 (D2), 4 g kg?1 (D3), 6 g kg?1 (D4) and 8 g kg?1 (D5) dietary inosine, respectively, to formulate five experimental diets. Each diet was randomly allocated to triplicate groups of fish (initial weight: 8 g). After 50 days of feeding trial, fish fed diets with 4 g kg?1 inosine had the highest (p < .05) final weight, weight gain and specific growth rate. Similarly, improved feed intake, feed conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio were also found at 4 g kg?1 inosine supplemented group. Some non‐specific immune parameters such as total serum protein, lysozyme activity and bactericidal activity tended to be higher for fish fed diets supplemented with inosine. Peroxidase and catalase activity also influenced (p < .05) by dietary inosine supplementation. Fish fed 2 g kg?1 and 4 g kg?1 inosine supplemented diets showed the least oxidative stress condition. Inosine supplementation significantly increased (p < .05) anterior enterocyte height and posterior fold height, enterocyte height and microvillus height compared with control. We concluded that 4 g kg?1 dietary inosine supplementation effectively provokes growth and health performance of red sea bream by increasing growth, immune response, oxidative stress resistance and intestinal health condition.  相似文献

A 10‐week feeding experiment was conducted to determine the optimum dietary protein requirement of juvenile obscure puffer (Takifugu obscurus). Six isoenergetic (20 MJ kg?1 gross energy) diets were formulated to contain graded levels of 34%, 38%, 42%, 46%, 50% or 54% crude protein (as dry matter basis). The results showed final body weight, weight gain and specific growth rate (SGR) increased significantly with increasing protein levels up to 42% and then decreased thereafer. Second‐order polynomial regression analysis (y = ?0.0024x2 + 0.1788x ? 1.3196, R2 = 0.9032) indicated a maximum SGR at protein level of 37%. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) decreased with increasing levels of dietary protein up to 42% and increased thereafter. Second‐order polynomial regression analysis (y = 0.0054x2 ? 0.4351x + 10.391, R2 = 0.753) indicated a minimum FCR at protein level of 40%. Protein efficiency ratio (PER) of fish fed the 34%, 38% and 42% diets was significantly higher than that of fish fed the 46%, 50% and 54% diets, and broken‐line analysis indicated PER tended to decrease when dietary protein level was higher than 40%. Generally, whole body lipid content, total cholesterol, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol and triacylglycerol decreased with increasing levels of dietary protein. Fish fed the 42% protein diet showed the highest essential amino acids (histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine and threonine) and non‐essential amino acids (aspartic acid and glutamic acid) in muscle. Based on the second‐degree polynomial regression analysis of SGR and FCR and broken‐line analysis of PER, the optimal dietary protein level of obscure puffer is estimated to be between 37% and 40% (% as dry matter basis).  相似文献

A 9‐week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the dietary methionine requirement of juvenile Megalobrama amblycephala at a constant dietary cystine level. Six semipurified diets were formulated to contain graded dietary methionine levels from 3.9 to 15.4 g kg?1 in about 2.5 g kg?1 increments in the presence of 2.2 g kg?1 cystine. Results showed that specific growth rate (SGR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) significantly increased with increasing dietary methionine levels from 3.9 to 12.4 g kg?1 and thereafter kept stable. Maximum protein productive value (PPV), nitrogen retention efficiency (NRE) and liver weight were observed in 8.5 g methionine kg?1 diet. Protein contents in whole fish body were positively correlated with dietary methionine level, while lipid contents were negatively correlated with it. Morphological index and hepatic glutamate‐pyruvate transaminase (GPT) activities were independent of dietary methionine levels. However, dietary methionine supplementation significantly improved haematological parameters, plasma methionine and total essential amino acid contents and hepatic glutamate‐oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) activities. Analysis of dose response using broken‐line regression on the basis of SGR and PPV versus dietary methionine level estimated the optimum dietary methionine requirements of juvenile M. amblycephala to be between 8.5 and 8.4 g kg?1 of diet (25.0 and 24.7 g kg?1 of protein) in the presence of 2.2 g kg?1 cystine, respectively. Hence, the corresponding total sulphur amino acids requirements of this species were calculated to be 10.7 and 10.6 g kg?1 of diet (31.5 and 31.2 g kg?1 of dietary protein).  相似文献

An 8‐week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the optimum dietary protein and lipid levels for growth, feed utilization and body composition of Pseudobagrus ussuriensis fingerlings (initial weight: 3.40 ± 0.01 g). Twelve diets containing four protein levels (350, 400, 450 and 500 g kg?1 crude protein) and three lipid levels (50, 100 and 150 g kg?1 crude lipid) were formulated. Fish were randomly allotted to 36 aquaria (1.0 × 0.5 × 0.8 m) with 25 fish to each glass aquarium. Fish were fed twice daily (08:00 and 16:00) to apparent satiation. The results showed that weight gain and specific growth rate (SGR) decreased with increasing dietary lipid level from 50 to 150 g kg?1 at the same dietary protein level. Fish fed the diets containing 150 g kg?1 lipid exhibited higher feed conversion ratio (P < 0.05), lower protein efficiency ratio (PER) and nitrogen retention efficiency (NRE) relative to fish fed the diet containing 50 and 100 g kg?1 lipid. Weight gain and SGR significantly increased with increasing dietary protein from 350 to 450 g kg?1 at the same dietary lipid level, and even a little decline in growth with the further increase in dietary protein to 500 g kg?1. Daily feed intake, NRE and PER were significantly affected by both dietary protein and lipid levels (P < 0.05) and tended to decrease with increasing dietary protein and lipid levels. Whole‐body protein content increased as protein levels increased and lipid levels decreased. Whole‐body lipid and muscle lipid content increased with increasing dietary lipid level, and decreased with increasing dietary protein at each lipid level. There was no significant difference in condition factor and viscerosomatic index among fish fed the diets. Hepatosomatic index was affected by dietary lipid level (P < 0.05), and increased with increasing dietary lipid level at the same protein level. These results suggest that the diet containing 450 g kg?1 protein and 50 g kg?1 lipid with a P/E ratio of 29.1 mg protein kJ?1 is optimal for growth and feed utilization of P. ussuriensis fingerlings under the experimental conditions used in the study.  相似文献
