A 10-week feeding experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary protein to lipid ratios (P/L) on growth, intestinal digestive enzyme activities and body composition in juvenile rice field eel (Monopterus albus) (initial mean body weight of 65.76 ± 1.07 g, mean ± SEM). Nine test diets were formulated in a 3 × 3 factorial design to contain three protein levels (350, 400 and 450 g kg?1) for each of three lipid levels (40, 80 and 120 g kg?1), respectively. Each diet was randomly assigned to triplicate groups of 60 fish per net cage (1.5 × 2.0 × 1.5 m). Results showed the survival was above 96 % and was not affected by dietary treatments. Fish fed the diet with 450 g kg?1 protein and 40 g kg?1 lipid showed the best weight gain (WG) (103.95 %) and feed conversion ratio (1.60) (P < 0.05). WG, protein efficiency ratio and energy retention increased with the increasing in lipid at 350 g kg?1 protein level (P < 0.05). However, WG showed a little decline with increasing dietary lipid when fish fed the diets with 400 and 450 g kg?1 protein level, but no significant difference was observed (P < 0.05). Hepatosomatic index, visceralsomatic index and intestinal lipase activity increased with the increasing of dietary lipid level irrespective protein level. Intestinal trypsin activity increased with the increasing of dietary lipid level when fish fed the diets with 350 g kg?1 protein, but showed converse trend when fish fed the diets with 400 and 450 g kg?1 protein. Serum triglyceride, body lipid and energy were positively correlated with the dietary lipid. Results of the present study showed that the dietary protein/lipid ratio of 450/40 g kg?1 is considered optimum for rice field eel under culture conditions, and the increase in dietary lipid level has no efficient protein-sparing effect when fish fed the diets with 400 and 450 g kg?1 protein level.  相似文献

The effect of graded levels of dietary available phosphorus (AP) on large Nile tilapia (145.87 ± 9.51 g) performance, feed efficiency, body composition and mineral retention in vertebrae was evaluated. All male fish were distributed into three replicates in fiberglass aquaria (800 L each; 12 fish per tank) for 87 days and hand fed to pelletized diets three times a day until apparent satiation. Diets with approximately 302 g kg?1 of digestible protein and 15.2 kJ g?1 of digestible energy with graded levels of dibasic phosphate yield AP levels of 2.39, 4.17, 6.12 and 8.91 g kg?1. At the end of the trial, feed intake, hepatosomatic index, fillet yield, whole body moisture and crude protein of fish fed 2.39–8.91 g kg?1 of AP diets were not significantly different. The supplementation of 6.12 and 8.91 g kg?1 of AP resulted in significantly increased weight gain, whole body ash and calcium. Whole body crude lipids significantly decreased with increasing AP from 6.12 to 8.91 g kg?1. However, concentration of zinc in the vertebrae was not affected by dietary treatments. The magnesium contents of the fish vertebrae were lower in fish fed lower dietary AP level. No effects of the dietary AP on apparent digestibility coefficients of energy and nutrients were observed. The study indicated that the dietary AP level of at least 6.12 g kg?1 satisfies the needs for growth performance, body composition and bone mineralization of large Nile tilapia.  相似文献

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of cholesterol on growth and cholesterol metabolism of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fed diets with cottonseed meal (CSM) or rapeseed meal (RSM). Four experimental diets were formulated to contain 550 g kg?1 CSM or 450 g kg?1 RSM with or without 9 g kg?1 supplemental cholesterol. Growth rate and feed utilization efficiency of fish fed diets with 450 g kg?1 RSM were inferior to fish fed diets with 550 g kg?1 CSM regardless of cholesterol level. Dietary cholesterol supplementation increased the growth rate of fish fed diets with RSM, and growth rate and feed utilization efficiency of fish fed diets with CSM. Similarly, dietary cholesterol supplementation increased the plasma total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triiodothyronine levels, but decreased the plasma triglycerides and cortisol levels of fish fed diets with RSM or CSM. In addition, supplemental cholesterol increased the free cholesterol and TC levels in intestinal contents, but decreased the hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA reductase activity of fish fed diets with RSM or CSM. These results indicate that 9 g kg?1 cholesterol supplementation seems to improve the growth of rainbow trout fed diets with CSM or RSM, and the growth-promoting action may be related to the alleviation of the negative effects caused by antinutritional factors and/or make up for the deficiency of endogenous cholesterol in rainbow trout.  相似文献

A feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of replacing fish meal with rubber seed meal (RSM) on growth, nutrient utilization, and cholesterol metabolism of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus × Oreochromis aureus). Five experimental diets were formulated with 0, 150, 300, 450, and 600 g kg?1 RSM replacing graded levels of fish meal, respectively. Each diet was randomly assigned to triplicate groups of 25 fish (initial average weight 65.3 g) per aquarium in a rearing system maintained at 29 ± 1 °C for 8 weeks. Dietary 150 g kg?1 RSM inclusion did not affect the weight gain and daily growth coefficient, whereas these were depressed by a further inclusion. Additionally, feed efficiency ratio and protein efficiency ratio were not affected by dietary RSM inclusion regardless of inclusion level. However, the inclusion of 450 and 600 g kg?1 RSM decreased the mid-intestinal trypsin, lipase, and amylase activities; the hepatic acyl-CoA/cholesterol acyl transferase; low-density lipoprotein receptor; and 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA reductase activities. Similarly, dietary 600 g kg?1 RSM inclusion inhibited the plasma catalase and hepatic glutathione peroxidase activities. These results indicated that 150 g kg?1 RSM can be included in tilapia diets, whereas higher inclusion of RSM inhibited the growth rate, digestive enzyme activity, antioxidant capacity, and cholesterol metabolism.  相似文献

A 2 × 3 factorial feeding trial was conducted to determine effects of dietary Ca/P ratio and dietary microbial phytase on growth, mineral digestibility and vertebral mineralization in tiger puffer. The treatments consisted of three levels of Ca/P ratios (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5) combined either with phytase (2000 FTU kg?1 diet) or without supplementation, respectively. The Ca/P ratios were achieved by supplementing calcium at 0, 6 and 12 g kg?1 combined with the same level of inorganic P at 5 g kg?1. After a 50‐day feeding trial, puffer fish fed the diet at low Ca/P ratio (0.5) together with phytase had significantly higher growth rate and feed intake (FI) than other groups. Both dietary Ca/P ratio and phytase supplement were independent effects on plasma minerals and alkaline phosphatase. Interactive effect between both dietary treatments was observed on P and Zn contents in vertebrae and whole body. P and Zn digestibilities tended to increase with increased Ca/P ratio from 0.5 to 1.0, especially when phytase was supplemented. In conclusion, fish fed a diet with highest Ca/P ratio (1.5) showed the poorest growth performance and nutrients utilization. Dietary Ca/P ratio of 0.5 (without Ca supplement) with 2000 FTU phytase per kg would be the optimum combination in the diet of tiger puffer.  相似文献

This study was undertaken to explore the systemic metabolic strategies of juvenile grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) to maintain growth when fed with different dietary protein levels. The optimal growth group and two growing discomfort groups were selected through the basic data, to explain the growth difference from appetite regulation and lipid and glucose metabolism perspective. Three experimental diets were formulated with three dietary protein levels at 200.3, 296.1 and 442.9 g kg?1, named P1, P2 and P3, respectively. Juvenile grass carp (initial body weight 12.28 ± 0.14 g) were fed with three diets with 3 replications per dietary treatment in an indoor recirculation system for an 8-week feeding trial. Fish fed with diet P2 dietary group showed significantly higher WG, SGR, FI and PER than other groups. Compared with other groups, mRNA expressions of NPY, Y8a and Y8b in fish fed with P2 significantly down-regulated, while the expressions of CCK and CART in fish fed with P3 significantly down-regulated (P < 0.05). With increasing dietary protein levels, G6Pase, GK, PK and PEPCK were all significantly inhibited (P < 0.05). For lipid metabolism, the mRNA expression of ACC in P1 dietary group was significantly higher than P3 dietary group; besides, LPL expression in P3 group was significantly higher than other two groups (P < 0.05). PPARα expression in P2 was significantly lower than other groups (P < 0.05). These results suggested that grass carp fed with P2 (296.1 g kg?1 protein level) showed highest weight gain, contributed to more balanced nutrient metabolism and appetite regulation. Too high dietary protein (442.9 g kg?1) should be avoided because it induced lowest PER, body lipid and liver lipid, and inhibited glucose and lipid metabolism in juvenile grass carp.  相似文献

This study was designed to determine the isoleucine requirement of juvenile Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone) in low-salinity water (0.50–0.70 g L?1). Six diets were formulated to contain 410 g kg?1 crude protein with fish meal, peanut meal and pre-coated crystalline amino acids with different concentration of l-isoleucine (9.35, 11.85, 14.35, 16.85, 19.35, and 21.85 g kg?1 dry diet, defined as diet I1, diet I2, diet I3, diet I4, diet I5 and diet I6, respectively.). Each diet was randomly assigned to triplicate treatments of 30 shrimps (0.43 ± 0.005 g), and the feed trial lasted for 8 weeks. The results indicated that the weight gain significantly increased with increasing isoleucine concentration up to 14.35 g kg?1 (diet I3), whereas it was reduced in the treatments exceeding 16.85 g kg?1 isoleucine (diet I4) significantly (P < 0.05). Moreover, the highest body protein deposition and protein efficiency ratio, and the lowest feed conversion ratio, haemolymph aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase activities were also found at treatment I3–I4 (P < 0.05). And the haemolymph urea nitrogen concentration of shrimps-fed diet I6 was particularly higher than those fed with diets I1–I5 (P < 0.05). The results of polynomial regression based on weight gain, feed efficiency and body protein deposition indicated that the optimal dietary isoleucine requirement for L. vannamei reared in low-salinity water was 15.95 g kg?1 isoleucine of dry diet, correspondingly 38.81 g kg?1 of dietary protein.  相似文献

In the present study, konjac mannanoligosaccharide (KMOS) was evaluated as a prebiotic in yellow catfish. The fish were fed with diets containing KMOS in four concentrations: 0 g kg?1 (C), 1.0 g kg?1 (KM1), 2.0 g kg?1 (KM2), and 3.0 g kg?1 (KM3) for 49 days, respectively. Another group fed with diets containing 3.0 g kg?1 yeast cell wall mannanoligosaccharide (MOS) (M3) was set as positive control. The results indicated that fish receiving the diets supplemented with KMOS or MOS showed higher relative gain rate (RGR), specific growth rate (SGR), and lower feed conversion ratio (FCR) with significantly differences (P < 0.05) than those fed with the basal diets. Moreover, fish receiving the diets with 2.0 g kg?1 KMOS inclusion showed higher RGR, SGR, and lower FCR (P < 0.05) than that feeding the diets supplemented with 3.0 g kg?1 MOS. The quantities of Bifidobacterium spp. were significantly increased (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, Escherichia coli and Aeromonas spp. were significantly reduced (P < 0.05) in the fish-feeding diets with 2.0 g kg?1 KMOS supplement. Compared with the control group, the significantly enhancement of protease and amylase activity (P < 0.05) in intestine and pancreas was observed in fish fed with diets containing KMOS or MOS. Collectively, an optimum level of KMOS inclusion in diets could modulate intestinal microflora, induce digestive enzyme activity, and improve the growth performance of yellow catfish significantly.  相似文献

The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary lipid levels on growth, liver oxidative stress, and serum metabolites of juvenile hybrid snakehead (Channa argus × Channa maculata). Five isonitrogenous (crude protein 420 g kg?1) practical diets containing 58, 87, 115, 144, and 173 g kg?1 crude lipid (named L58, L87, L115, L144, and L173, respectively) were fed to triplicate groups of 30 fish (mean initial weight 24 g) for 8 weeks. The results showed that the final body weight (58.68–78.81 g), specific growth rate (1.41–1.75 % day?1), and protein efficiency ratio (1.66–2.64) increased significantly with the increasing dietary lipid levels. Liver lipid contents (71.65–101.80 g kg?1) and crude lipid (52.10–83.63 g kg?1) of whole body increased with increasing dietary lipid levels and reached the highest values in fish of L173. Fish of L173 showed lower alkaline phosphatase (23.81 King Unit gprot?1) and catalase activities (4.44 U mgprot?1) but higher malondialdehyde content (0.69 nmol mgprot?1) in liver than the other groups. Higher alanine transaminase activity (8.20 U L?1), aspartate transaminase activity (63.65 U L?1), and triglyceride (0.29 mmol L?1) in serum were observed in fish of L173 compared to the other treatments. Fish of L144 showed higher superoxide dismutase activity and glutathione peroxidase activities in liver than that of fish fed diet L58. Fish fed diet L58 showed lower total cholesterol (3.61 mmol L?1), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (1.39 mmol L?1), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (0.46 mmol L?1) in serum. These results suggested that juvenile snakehead (Channa argus × Channa maculata) achieved good growth performance with dietary lipid level 173 g kg?1. Diet with 143 g kg?1 lipid was more conductive to liver health. The appropriate dietary lipid supplementation needs to be determined in further studies.  相似文献

The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of astaxanthin on growth performance, biochemical parameters, ROS production, and immune-related gene expressions of the pufferfish (Takifugu obscurus) under high temperature stress. The experimental basal diets supplemented with astaxanthin at the rates of 0 (control), 20, 40, 80, 160, and 320 mg kg?1 were fed to fish for 8 weeks. The results showed that the fish fed diet with 80, 160, and 320 mg kg?1 astaxanthin significantly improved weight gain and specific growth rate. Furthermore, fish fed the moderate dietary astaxanthin increased plasma alkaline phosphatase activities, and decrease plasma aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase activities. After the feeding trial, the fish were exposed to high temperature stress for 48 h. The results shown that astaxanthin could suppress ROS production induced by high temperature stress. Meanwhile, compared with the control group, the astaxanthin groups increased SOD, CAT, and HSP70 mRNA levels under high temperature stress. These results showed that the basal diet supplemented with 80–320 mg kg?1 astaxanthin could enhance growth, nonspecific immune responses, and antioxidant defense system and improve resistance against high temperature stress in pufferfish.  相似文献

A 74‐day trial was undertaken to evaluate the effects of temperature (16 and 22 °C) and dietary protein/lipid ratio on the performance of juvenile Senegalese sole (mean body weight: 6.4 g). Four experimental diets were formulated to contain two protein levels (550 g kg?1 and 450 g kg?1) combined with two lipid levels (80 g kg?1 and 160 g kg?1). Growth was higher at 22 °C and within each temperature in fish fed diets 55P8L and 45P16L. Feed efficiency, N retention (% NI) and energy retention (% EI) were higher at 22 and at both temperatures in fish fed diet 55P8L. Temperature affected whole‐body composition, with dry matter, protein, lipid and energy being higher and ash lower in fish kept at higher temperature. Independently of temperature, whole‐body lipid, energy and ash were higher and protein was lower in fish fed the high‐lipid diets. Visceral and hepatosomatic indices were not affected by diet composition but were higher in fish kept at 16 °C. Liver glycogen and lipid contents and activities of glutamate dehydrogenase, alanine and aspartate aminotransferases were not affected by diet or water temperature. Malic enzyme (ME) and glucose 6‐phosphate dehydrogenase activities were higher in fish fed the low‐lipid diets. ME activity was higher at lower temperature. In conclusion, increasing water temperature from 16 to 22 °C improves growth and feed efficiency of Senegalese sole juveniles; regardless of water temperature, the diet with 550 g kg?1 protein and 80 g kg?1 lipid promoted the best growth and feed efficiency.  相似文献

Although the ratio of essential to nonessential amino acids (EAA:NEAA ratio) in dietary protein has important effects on protein utilization by fish, there has thus far been little research aimed at quantifying these effects. In this study, we investigated the effect of dietary EAA:NEAA ratio on nitrogen (N) utilization and excretion of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). A 6-week dose-response experiment was conducted, with 6 levels of dietary EAA:NEAA ratio, ranging from 23:77 to 66:34. Protein content of all diets was 350 g kg?1. Each experimental diet was fed to four replicate tanks of fish (35 fish per tank). Fish were fed a limited ration on the first two feedings of each day, and were fed to apparent satiation on the third feeding of each day. Response variables included feed intake, weight gain, lipid deposition, thermal-unit growth coefficient (TGC), feed efficiency ratio (FER), N retention, and N excretion (g kg?1 gain). Mean feed intake, weight gain, TGC, FER and N retention all increased as EAA:NEAA ratio increased up to 57:43, and then decreased slightly as EAA:NEAA ratio increased further to 66:34. Maximum mean N retention of 46% and minimum mean N excretion of 29 g N kg?1 gain was achieved by fish fed the diet containing an EAA:NEAA ratio of 57:43. Non-linear regression using a 2nd order polynomial equation showed that 95% of the maximum N retention could be achieved with an EAA:NEAA ratio of 46:54, and 98% with an EAA:NEAA ratio ranging from 49:51 to 62:38.  相似文献

This study aimed to evaluate the fat deposition pattern and lipid metabolic strategies of grass carp in response to dietary lipid levels. Five isonitrogenous diets (260 g kg?1 crude protein) containing five dietary lipid levels (0, 20, 40, 60, 80 g kg?1) were fed to quadruplicate groups of 15 fish with initial weight 200 g, for 8 weeks. The best growth performance and feed utilization was observed in fish fed with lipid level at 40 g kg?1. MFI and adipose tissue lipid content increased with increasing dietary lipid level up to 40 g kg?1, and higher lipid level in diet made no sense. Fish adapted to high lipid intake through integrated regulating mechanisms in several related tissues to maintain lipid homeostasis. In the present study, grass carp firstly increased PPARγ and CPT1 expressions in adipose tissue to elevate adipocyte differentiation and lipolysis to adapt to high lipid intake above 40 g kg?1. In liver, fish elevated hepatic lipid uptake but depressed biosynthesis of hepatic FAs, resulted in no difference in HSI and liver lipid content among the groups. Only in muscle, fish showed a significant fat deposition when the lipid intake above 40 g kg?1. The excess lipid, derived from enhanced serum TC and TG contents, was more likely to induce deposition in muscle rather than lipid uptake by adipose tissue in grass carp fed with high dietary lipid, indicating the muscle of grass carp might be the main responding organ to high lipid intake.  相似文献

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary chitosan on growth performance, hematological parameters, intestinal histology, stress resistance and body composition in the Caspian kutum (Rutilus frisii kutum, Kamenskii, 1901) fingerlings. Fish (1.7 ± 0.15 g) were fed diets containing chitosan at different levels (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 g kg?1 diet) for a period of 60 days. Results showed that the feed conversion ratio significantly decreased in fish fed diet containing 1 g kg?1 of chitosan compared to the other groups (P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences between treatments in terms of specific growth rate and condition factor (P > 0.05). Leukocyte increased in fish fed diet containing 2 g kg?1 of chitosan compared to the other groups (P < 0.05). Lymphocytes, eosinophils and neutrophils did not significantly change among dietary treatments (P > 0.05). Also, the chitosan supplementation did not affect the whole-fish body composition (P > 0.05). Light microscopy demonstrated that the intestinal villus length increased in fish fed diet containing 1 g kg?1 of chitosan compared to control group (P < 0.05). While 11 and 13 ‰ salinity and 30 °C thermal stress had no effect, 1 g kg?1 of chitosan (P < 0.05) showed highest survival rate (70 %) in 34 °C thermal stress. The results showed that chitosan in the diet of the Caspian kutum fingerlings could improve feed conversion ratio, the nonspecific defense mechanisms and resistance to some of the environmental stresses.  相似文献

This study was conducted to evaluate dietary protein and carbohydrate requirement of juvenile Hawaiian limpets Cellana sandwincensis. A total of 64 juvenile limpets (3.12 ± 0.86 g) were fed five different dietary protein levels ranging from 270 to 470 g kg?1 for 90 days. Carbohydrate and lipid levels were held constant at 180 and 49.7 g kg?1, respectively. Weight gain and growth rates of the animals did not differ significantly (P > 0.05) among the protein levels ranging from 270 g kg?1 (0.30 % day?1) to 470 g kg?1 (0.23 % day?1). Next, opihi were fed four diets with protein levels from 210 to 500 g kg?1 with a constant carbohydrate level at 120 g kg?1. Weight gain and specific growth rates of opihi increased with increasing dietary protein from 210 to 350 g kg?1, and significantly (P < 0.05) decreased at the 500 g kg?1 diet. Highest weight gain, growth rates, and protein efficiency ratio were achieved at 350 g kg?1. Elevated carbohydrate levels (180–370 g kg?1) produced a significant difference (P < 0.05) in growth. The fastest growth rates of animals were obtained with 270 g kg?1 (0.27 % day?1) and 320 g kg?1 (0.26 % day?1). The weight gain of animals fed 180 and 370 g kg?1 carbohydrate diets were significantly (P < 0.05) lower than those of animals fed 270 and 320 g kg?1. We conclude that about 350 g kg?1 protein and 320 g kg?1 carbohydrate levels could be used for opihi.  相似文献

Triplicate groups of Indian catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis (Bloch), fingerlings (average wet weight 3.55 ± 0.03 g) were fed semi-purified diets containing six levels of biotin (0, 0.086, 0.26, 0.86, 2.5 and 4.3 mg kg−1 diet) for 15 weeks. After 42 days of feeding, fish fed the control (no biotin) diet had developed severe deficiency signs characterized by convulsions, heavy mortality, listlessness, poor feed conversion and feed intake, dark skin colour, tetanus and weight loss. None of these signs was seen in fish fed biotin-supplemented diets. Among all the biotin-supplemented diets, percentage weight gain was significantly highest for fish fed the diet supplemented with 0.26 mg of biotin kg−1 and significantly lowest for fish fed the diet supplemented with 0.086 mg of biotin kg−1. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) patterns were similar to that of percentage weight gain. The carcass protein and lipid contents were influenced by the dietary biotin up to fish fed 0.26 mg of biotin kg−1. Significantly higher body biotin content, liver pyruvate carboxylase and acetyl CoA carboxylase activities were observed in fish fed biotin-supplemented diets than in fish fed the control diet. Broken-line analyses showed that the optimum dietary requirement for biotin for maximal weight gain, body biotin content, liver pyruvate carboxylase and acetyl CoA carboxylase activities was about 0.25 mg kg−1. Associated liver pyruvate carboxylase and acetyl CoA carboxylase activities for normal growth ranged from 105 to 120 units mg−1 protein and from 9 to 11 units mg−1 protein respectively.  相似文献

An 11‐week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary methionine on the growth, antioxidant status, innate immune response and disease resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila of juvenile yellow catfish. Six isonitrogenous and isolipidic practical diets were formulated to contain different graded methionine levels ranging from 6.1 to 16.4 g kg?1 of dry weight. The results indicated that growth performance and feed utilization were significantly influenced by the dietary methionine levels; fish fed the diet containing 6.1 g kg?1 methionine level had lower specific growth rate, percentage weight gain (PWG), feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio than those fed the other diets (P < 0.05). Fish fed the diet containing 16.4 g kg?1 methionine level had lowest protein contents in whole body and muscle among all treatments. Triacylglycerols, cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and haemoglobin (Hb) in plasma or whole blood were significantly affected by dietary methionine levels. Fish fed the diet containing 6.1 g kg?1 methionine level had higher superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase activities and malondialdehyde values than those fed other diets. Fish fed diets containing 9.7 and 11.8 g kg?1 methionine levels had higher lysozyme activity, total immune globulin, phagocytic activity and respiratory burst than those fed other diets. The lowest survival after A. hydrophila challenge was observed in fish fed a diet containing 6.1 g kg?1 methionine. Quadratic regression analysis of PWG against dietary methionine levels indicated that the optimal dietary methionine requirement for the maximum growth of juvenile yellow catfish was estimated to be 11.5 g kg?1 of the diet in the presence of 4.0 g kg?1 cystine (corresponding to 23.5 g kg?1 of dietary protein on a dry weight basis).  相似文献

This study was conducted to investigate the influence of dietary lipid source and n‐3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 HUFA) level on growth, body composition and blood chemistry of juvenile fat cod. Triplicate groups of fish (13.2 ± 0.54 g) were fed the diets containing different n‐3 HUFA levels (0–30 g kg?1) adjusted by either lauric acid or different proportions of corn oil, linseed oil and squid liver oil at 100 g kg?1 of total lipid level. Survival was not affected by dietary fatty acids composition. Weight gain, feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio (PER) of fish fed the diets containing squid liver oil were significantly (P < 0.05) higher than those fed the diets containing lauric acid, corn oil or linseed oil as the sole lipid source. Weight gain, feed efficiency and PER of fish increased with increasing dietary n‐3 HUFA level up to 12–16 g kg?1, but the values decreased in fish fed the diet containing 30 g kg?1 n‐3 HUFA. The result of second‐order polynomial regression showed that the maximum weight gain and feed efficiency could be attained at 17 g kg?1 n‐3 HUFA. Plasma protein, glucose and cholesterol contents were not affected by dietary fatty acids composition. However, plasma triglyceride content in fish fed the diet containing lauric acid as the sole lipid source was significantly (P < 0.05) lower than that of fish fed the other diets. Lipid content of fish fed the diets containing each of lauric acid or corn oil was lower than that of fish fed the diets containing linseed oil or squid liver oil only. Fatty acid composition of polar and neutral lipid fractions in the whole body of fat cod fed the diets containing various levels of n‐3 HUFA were reflected by dietary fatty acids compositions. The contents of n‐3 HUFA in polar and neutral lipids of fish increased with an increase in dietary n‐3 HUFA level. These results indicate that dietary n‐3 HUFA are essential and the diet containing 12–17 g kg?1 n‐3 HUFA is optimal for growth and efficient feed utilization of juvenile fat cod, however, excessive n‐3 HUFA supplement may impair the growth of fish.  相似文献

Senegalese sole is one of the most promising fish species cultivated in the Southern European countries. This study was aimed at assessing the effects of microalgae biomass added to diets for Senegalese sole juveniles on fish growing and condition status. Three isoproteic (52%) and isolipidic (10%) were formulated containing 15% Tisochrysis lutea (TISO), Nannochloropsis gaditana (NAN), or Scenedesmus almeriensis (SCE) biomass, respectively. An experimental microalgae-free diet (CT) and a commercial diet (COM) were used as controls. Fish were fed at 3% of their body weight for 85 days. Final body weight of fish fed microalgae-supplemented diets did not differ from group fed CT diet. Fish-fed CT, TISO, NAN, and SCE showed higher growth performance and nutrient utilization figures than specimen-fed COM diet. The highest carcass lipid content was found in COM group (141 g kg?1), and no differences were observed in body protein content. Ash was significantly higher in TISO, NAN, and SCE groups compared to fish-fed CT. Muscle EPA and DHA contents were not modified owing to the different dietary treatments. The n3/n6 and EPA/DHA ratios in muscle were similar in all the experimental groups. The quantification of digestive proteolytic activities did not differ among experimental groups, although differences in the protease pattern in digestive extracts by zymography were revealed in those fish fed on COM diet. Both α-amylase activity in the intestinal lumen and leucine aminopeptidase in the intestinal tissue were significantly lower in COM fish. Specimens fed on SCE diet showed a higher leucine aminopeptidase activity associated to the intestinal tissue compared to NAN-fed fish (0.40 and 0.25 U g tissue?1, respectively). The ultrastructural study revealed that the dietary inclusion of algal biomass, especially T. lutea and N. gaditana, had a positive impact on the absorptive capacity of the intestinal mucosa. The highest values for the parameters microvilli length and microvilli absorption surface were observed in fish fed on NAN diet (1.99 μm and 45.93 μm2, respectively). Even though further studies aimed at optimizing commercial formulas for Senegalese sole are required prior to any large-scale practical utilization, the results obtained clearly suggest the potential of microalgae as dietary ingredients for this fish species.  相似文献
