The pharmacokinetic properties of the antibacterial agent oxolinic acid were studied after intravenous, intraperitoneal and oral administration to 1.5–3.0 kg Atlantic halibut, Hippoglossus hippoglossus L., held in sea water at 9 °C. Following intravenous injection, the plasma drug concentration-time profile showed two distinct phases. The terminal elimination half-life was estimated to be 52 h, whereas total body clearance (ClT) was determined to be 0.044 L kg–1 h–1. The volume of distribution at steady state, Vd(ss), was calculated to be 3.0 L kg–1, indicating good tissue penetration of oxolinic acid in Atlantic halibut. The peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and the time to peak plasma concentration (Tmax) were estimated to be 1.2 and 2.7 μg mL–1, and 21.5 and 80 h, respectively, following oral administration of medicated feed or intraperitoneal injection. The corresponding bioavailabilities were calculated to be 15% and 92%, respectively. Oral administration of vetoquinol, the carbitol ester of oxolinic acid, increased the bioavailability of oxolinic acid to 64% and the total bioavailability (oxolinic acid + vetoquinol) to 82%, whereas Cmax and Tmax values of 6.7 μg mL–1 and 14.5 h, respectively, for oxolinic acid, and 1.0 μg mL–1 and 6.3 h, respectively, for vetoquinol were obtained. Based on a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.0625 μg mL–1 for susceptible strains, a single intraperitoneal injection of 25 mg kg–1 of oxolinic acid maintains plasma levels in excess of 0.25 μg mL–1, corresponding to four times the MIC value, for ≈12 days. The corresponding values for a single oral dose of 25 mg kg–1 of oxolinic acid and vetoquinol were 5 and 10 days, respectively. For resistant strains with a MIC of 1 μg mL–1, a single oral dose of vetoquinol (25 mg kg–1) maintained plasma levels in excess of 4 μg mL–1 for 34 h.  相似文献

This study examined the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of oxolinic acid (OA) in black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon Fabricius, in brackish water (salinity 10 g L?1) at 28–29°C, after intra‐sinus (10 mg kg?1) and oral (50 mg kg?1) administration and also investigated the net changes of OA residues in the shrimp after cooking (boiling, baking and frying). The haemolymph concentrations of OA after intra‐sinus dosing were best described by a two‐compartment open model. The distribution and elimination half‐lives were 0.84 and 17.7 h respectively. The apparent volume of distribution at a steady state and the total body clearance were estimated to be 2061 mL kg?1 and 90.1 mL kg?1 h?1 respectively. The bioavailability of OA after an oral administration was 7.9%. The peak haemolymph concentration, the time to peak haemolymph concentration and the elimination half‐life after oral administration were 4.20 μg mL?1, 4 h and 19.8 h respectively. Oxolinic acid muscle and shell levels increased to a maximum (muscle 1.76 μg g?1 and shell 8.17 μg g?1) at 4 h post administration and then decreased with the elimination half‐life value of 20.2 and 21.9 h respectively. Residual OA in muscle and shell was reduced by 20–30% by each cooking procedure examined.  相似文献

Gastrointestinal and serum absorption of astaxanthin was studied in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum) (217 ± 2 g) fed diets supplemented with either esterified astaxanthin (from Haematococcus pluvialis) or free astaxanthin (synthetic, as 8% w/w beadlets) at similar levels (50 mg kg?1). After 56 days of feeding, there was a significant difference (P = 0.0582) between steady‐state serum astaxanthin concentrations for fish fed free (2.0 ± 0.3 μg mL?1) or esterified astaxanthin (1.3 ± 0.1 μg mL?1) at the 90% confidence level. However, following ingestion of a single meal supplemented with free or esterified astaxanthin, the rates of astaxanthin absorption into serum were not significantly different (P > 0.1) (0.8 ± 0.2 µg mL?1 h?1 and 1.0 ± 0.4 µg mL?1 h?1 respectively). In fish fed both free or esterified astaxanthin, higher absorption (P < 0.05) of astaxanthin by the ileal (0.8 ± 0.14 μg g?1 and 0.9 ± 0.15 μg g?1 respectively) compared with the posterior (0.2 ± 0.01 μg g?1 and 0.3 ± 0.14 μg g?1 respectively) intestine was recorded. This confirmed the role of the anterior intestine in carotenoid absorption. Non‐detectable levels of esters in digesta taken from the hind intestine suggest the anterior intestine is also the primary region for ester hydrolysis.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetic profile of the antiparasitic agent emamectin benzoate was studied in plasma after intravenous (i.v.) injection and in plasma, muscle and skin following oral (p.o.) administration to cod, Gadus morhua, held in sea water at 9 °C and weighing 100–200 g. Following i.v. injection, the plasma drug concentration‐time profile showed two distinct phases. The plasma distribution half‐life (t1/2α) was estimated as 2.5 h, the elimination half‐life (t1/2β) as 216 h, the total body clearance (ClT) as 0.0059 L kg?1 h?1 and mean residence time (MRT) as 385 h. The volume of distribution at steady state, Vd(ss), was calculated to be 1.839 L kg?1. Following p.o. administration the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) was 15 ng mL?1, the time to peak plasma concentration (Tmax) was 89 h and t1/2β was 180 h. The highest concentration in muscle (21 ng g?1) was measured after 7 days and t1/2β was calculated to be 247 h. For skin, a peak concentration of 28 ng g?1 at 3 days was observed and a t1/2β of 235 h was determined. The bioavailability following p.o. administration was calculated to be 38%.  相似文献

Three isonitrogenous (320 g kg?1 crude protein, casein and gelatine) semi‐purified diets with 80 (L8), 130 (L13) and 180 (L18) g kg?1 lipid (sunflower oil at increasing levels and cod liver oil fixed at 50 g kg?1) at three digestible energy levels (12 096, 13 986 and 15 876 kJ kg?1 dry weight) and were tested, in triplicate, on rohu fingerlings (3.2 ± 0.08 g) at two different temperatures (21 and 32 °C). Fish were fed to apparent satiation, twice daily, at 09.00 and 15.00 h, 7 days a week for 56 days. Maximum growth was obtained at a lipid level of 80 g kg?1 (L8) at 21 °C (439.37%) and 130 g kg?1 (L13) at 32 °C (481.8%). In general growth rate was higher at 32 °C than at 21 °C at all lipid levels. Tissue monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) contents decreased with increasing lipid level at 32 °C, but the reverse occurred at 21 °C. At 21 °C, Polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) level increased significantly (P > 0.05) over initial values, but was affected insignificantly by dietary lipid level. At 32 °C, fish fed diet L13 had more n‐3 fatty acid (FA) in liver and muscle than the other two dietary groups while at 21 °C, both liver and muscle FA profiles exhibited significant change (P > 0.05) in n‐3 and n‐6 FA content which corresponded to variation in percent addition of dietary lipid. However, n‐3/n‐6 ratio was higher for fish fed diet L13 at 32 °C and diet L8 at 21 °C and may be correlated with fish growth.  相似文献

Uptake of five chemical forms of erythromycin by adult Artemia salina (L.) (erythromycin phosphate – EP, erythromycin stearate – ES, erythromycin estolate – EE, erythromycin hydrate – EH and crystalline erythromycin – CE) was investigated in two trials. In each trial, final erythromycin concentration in Artemia tissue and survival after a 12‐h bioencapsulation period were determined. In the first trial, Artemia tissue concentration after a 12‐h bioencapsulation period was significantly (P < 0.05) affected by erythromycin form with ES (68.5 ± 3.3 μg mL?1, mean ± SEM) ≈ EH (61.2 ± 3.4 μg mL?1) > CE (37.1 ± 10.7 μg mL?1) > EP (16.4 ± 7.7 μg mL?1) > control. In trial 2, Artemia tissue concentration was also significantly (P < 0.05) affected by erythromycin form with EE (111.4 ± 9.6 μg mL?1) > CE (89.1 ± 1.7 μg mL?1) > ES (78.9 ± 1.6 μg mL?1) > EP (33.4 ± 5.2 μg mL?1) > control. Survival was significantly affected by erythromycin form in trial 1 with EP=control (100 ± 0.0%) > ES (74.4 ± 2.0%) > CE (32.2 ± 0.3%) > EH (8.8 ± 4.4%). In trial 2, survival was also significantly affected by erythromycin form with EP=control (100 ± 0.0%) > ES (67.1 ±3.7%) > CE (52.5 ± 7.7%) > EE (5.0 ± 2.5%). Based on both uptake and survival, EP and ES appear to be appropriate compounds for bioencapsulation of erythromycin using live adult Artemia.  相似文献

In this study, we tested the lower salinity tolerance of juvenile shrimps (Litopenaeus vannamei) at a relatively low temperature (20 °C). In the first of two laboratory experiments, we first abruptly transferred shrimps (6.91 ± 0.05 g wet weight, mean ± SE) from the rearing salinity (35 000 mg L?1) to salinities of 5000, 15 000, 25 000, 35 000 (control) and 40 000 mg L?1 at 20 °C. The survival of L. vannamei juvenile was not affected by salinities from 15 000 to 40 000 mg L?1 during the 96‐h exposure periods. Shrimps exposed to 5000 mg L?1 were significantly affected by salinity, with a survival of 12.5% after 96 h. The 24‐, 48‐ and 96‐h lethal salinity for 50% (LS50) were 7020, 8510 and 9540 mg L?1 respectively. In the second experiment, shrimps (5.47 ± 0.09 g wet weight, mean ± SE) were acclimatized to the different salinity levels (5000, 15 000, 25 000, 35 000 and 40 000 mg L?1) and then maintained for 30 days at 20 °C. Results showed that the survival was significantly lower at 5000 mg L?1 than at other salinity levels, but the final wet weight under 5000 mg L?1 treatment was significantly higher than those under other treatments (P<0.05). Feed intake (FI) of shrimp under 5000 mg L?1 was significantly lower than those of shrimp under 150 00–40 000 mg L?1; food conversion efficiency (FCE), however, showed a contrasting change (P<0.05). Furthermore, salinity significantly influenced the oxygen consumption rates, ammonia‐N excretion rates and the O/N ratio of test shrimps (P<0.05). The results obtained in our work provide evidence that L. vannamei juveniles have limited capacity to tolerate salinities <10 000 mg L?1 at a relatively low temperature (20 °C). Results also show that L. vannamei juvenile can recover from the abrupt salinity change between 15 000 and 40 000 mg L?1 within 24 h.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of oxolinic acid following an intravascular administration (15 mg kg?1 fish) were determined in sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax L. (110 g), at 13 °C and 22 °C water temperature. The kinetic profile of the drug was found to be temperature dependent, with increased temperature having a greater effect on distribution after equilibrium and the elimination phase than on the distribution process. The distibution half‐life of oxolinic acid was 1.15 and 2.76 h at 22 °C and 13 °C respectively, whereas the elimination half‐life of the drug was 55 h at 22 °C and 315 h at 13 °C. The values of the apparent volume of distribution (1.44 L kg?1 at 22 °C and 3.31 L kg?1 at 13 °C) and the volume of distribution at steady state (5.2 and 14.7 L kg?1 at the high and low temperature respectively) were considerably different between the two tested temperatures. The total body clearance of the antibiotic was found to be low (1.47 L kg?1 day?1 at 22 °C and 0.80 L kg?1 day?1 at 13 °C). Lower rates of elimination were found for the liver compared with muscle, the difference increasing with increasing temperature, while elimination rates from the serum were higher than those of other tissues, especially at the high temperature.  相似文献

Solvent‐extracted soybean meal (SESBM) has been reported to cause subacute enteritis in certain fish species. Two 34‐day experiments investigated the effects of SESBM and soy protein concentrate (SPC) on the intestinal mucus layer and development of subacute enteritis in the hindgut of yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi) at 22 and 18 °C. Fish were fed increasing levels of SESBM (Exp. 1: 0 g kg?1, 100 g kg?1, 200 g kg?1, 300 g kg?1) and SPC (Exp. 2: 0 g kg?1, 200 g kg?1, 300 g kg?1, 400 g kg?1). No visual signs of inflammation in the hindgut were observed in either experiment. However, increasing dietary SESBM significantly reduced mucus layer thickness. Neutral and acidic goblet cell mucin composition increased at 18 and 22 °C, respectively. A significant positive linear relationship was evident between goblet cell number and SESBM inclusion at 18 °C. SPC inclusion and water temperature had no significant effect on mucus layer thickness or mucin composition. However, at 18 °C, goblet cell numbers decreased with SPC inclusion. Results suggest the early stages of subacute enteritis may have been manifesting in SESBM fed fish. In the long term, mucus layer alterations associated with feeding SESBM may compromise fish health. Longer‐term studies should investigate the effects of feeding SESBM to yellowtail kingfish, particularly at suboptimal water temperatures.  相似文献

Triplicate groups of gibel carp Carassius auratus gibelio (initial body weight: 5.25 ± 0.02 g) were fed for 8 weeks at 20–25 °C on five isonitrogenous (crude protein: 400 g kg?1) and isoenergetic diets (gross energy: 17 kJ g?1). Meat and bone meal (MBM) or poultry by‐product meal (PBM) were used to replace fish meal at different levels of protein. The control diet contained fish meal as the sole protein source. In the other four diets, 150 or 500 g kg?1 of fish meal protein was substituted by MBM (MBM15, MBM50) or PBM (PBM15, PBM50). The results showed that feeding rate for the MBM50 group was significantly higher than for other groups except the PBM50 group (P < 0.05). Growth rate in the MBM15 group was significantly higher than that in the control (P < 0.05), while there was no significant difference in growth between the control and other groups (P > 0.05). Feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio in MBM50 was significantly lower while that in MBM15 was significantly higher (P < 0.05). Replacement of fish meal by MBM at 500 g kg?1 protein significantly decreased apparent dry matter digestibility (ADCD) and gross energy (ADCE) while apparent protein digestibility (ADCP) was significantly decreased by the replacement of MBM or PBM (P < 0.05). The results suggest that MBM and PBM could replace up to 500 g kg?1 of fish meal protein in diets for gibel carp without negative effects on growth while 150 g kg?1 replacement by MBM protein improved feed utilization.  相似文献

Three cooling rates of 1.26±0.09°C h?1 within 8 h (slow, T1), 2.52±0.18°C h?1 within 4 h (moderate, T2) and 5.04±0.36°C h?1 within 2 h (fast, T3) were tested to cold‐anaesthetize farm raised Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man) (45–52 g) in each case from 25°C down to 15±1°C in a refrigerated chilling tank, provided with aeration. The cold‐anaesthetized prawns subjected to each chilling rate were packed in an insulated cardboard box (triplicate) between two layers of moist and chilled (2–3°C) sawdust, and kept inside a chilled storage cabinet at 15±1°C, for set durations of 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 h. Survival was determined by revitalizing the prawns in aerated water with an initial temperature of 20°C, which was raised to 29±1°C within 3 h. The experiment was repeated using berried females acclimated to brackishwater of 12 g L?1 salinity and the percentage survival recorded after live storage for durations ranging from 6 to 24 h at intervals of 3 h. Statistically valid safe durations for obtaining 100% survival of the cold anaesthetized and live stored prawns were determined using probit analysis at the three chilling rates tested, and were found to be 7.39, 6.98 and 4.54 h in the case of adult prawns, and 7.87, 8.17 and 6.43 h for berried females for T1, T2 and T3 respectively. For practical purposes, the durations that yielded 95% survival rates were computed to be 16.47, 12.14 and 8.35 h in the case of adult prawns and 18.49, 19.02 and 11.11 h for berried females for T1, T2, and T3 respectively. The berried prawns revitalized after live storage were incubated in tanks and the zoea larvae reared up to postlarvae (PL‐5), and compared against a control. No significant difference was found in larval hatch fecundity, survival rate and the production of PL L?1 between the treatment and control, indicating that the method of cold anaesthetization and live storage of berried prawns could be used for successful transportation of broodstock.  相似文献

Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (L.) held in timed‐pulse feeding chambers, were provided with algal‐rich water dominated by either green algae (Scenedesmus, Ankistrodesmus, Chlorella and Tetraedron) or cyanobacteria (Microcystis) to determine the effect of temperature and phytoplankton concentration on filtration rates. Green algae and cyanobacteria filtration rates were measured as suspended particulate organic carbon (POC) kg?1 wet fish weight h?1. Ivlev's filter‐feeding model described the relationships between filtration rates and suspended POC concentration of green algae and cyanobacteria. Filtration rates of both green algae and cyanobacteria increased linearly as water temperature increased from 17 °C to 32 °C and were significantly higher in the warm‐water regime (26–32 °C) than in the cool‐water regime (17–23 °C). Filtration rates at 95% saturation POC (FR95) in green algal and cyanobacterial waters were 700 mg C kg?1 h?1 and 851 mg C kg?1 h?1 in the warm‐water regime and 369 mg C kg?1 h?1 and 439 mg C kg?1 h?1 in the cool‐water regime respectively. The FR95 in warm water were achieved at lower POC concentrations than in cool water.  相似文献

Growth response of fingerling Heteropneustes fossilis (6.8 ± 0.2 g; 11.2 ± 0.3 cm) to dietary l ‐leucine levels was assessed by conducting 8‐week feeding trial in a flow‐through system (1–1.5 L min?1) at 28 °C water temperature. Casein–gelatin‐based isonitrogenous (380 g kg?1; crude protein) and isoenergetic [17.9 MJ kg?1; gross energy (GE)] basal diet was supplemented with different levels of l ‐leucine to achieve desired leucine levels ranging between 10 and 22.5 g kg?1 dry diet. Analysed values were 9.9 (Lc9.9), 12.4 (Lc12.4), 15.1 (Lc15.1), 17.4 (Lc17.4), 20.1 (Lc20.1) and 22.4 (Lc22.4) g leucine kg?1 diet. Fishes were stocked randomly in quadruplicates and fed to satiation at 07:00 and 17:30 h. Maximum absolute weight gain (AWG g fish?1), feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein utilization efficiency (PUE%), leucine retention efficiency (LRE%) and haematological parameters were found in fish fed diet Lc17.4. For precise determination of dietary leucine requirement of Singhi, AWG g fish?1, FCR, PUE% and LRE% were subjected to broken‐line and second‐degree polynomial regression analysis. Second‐degree polynomial regression analysis fitted the data more accurately (P > 0.05) exhibiting high R2 values. Hence, based on this analysis, dietary leucine requirement of fingerling H. fossilis is recommended to be 16.5 g kg?1 of the diet, corresponding to 43.4 g kg?1 protein for developing leucine‐balanced commercial feeds.  相似文献

Piaractus mesopotamicus juveniles (total length 12 ± 0.5 mm) were exposed to different concentrations of ammonia‐N (un‐ionized plus ionized ammonia as nitrogen), using the static renewal method at different temperature levels (15, 20 and 25°C) at pH 7. The 24, 48, 72, 96 h LC50 values of ammonia‐N in P. mesopotamicus juveniles were 5.32, 4.19, 3.79 and 2.85 mg L?1 at 15°C; 4.81, 3.97, 3.25 and 2.50 mg L?1 at 20°C; and 4.16, 3.79, 2.58 and 1.97 mg L?1 at 25°C respectively. The 24, 48, 72, 96 h LC50 values of NH3‐N (un‐ionized ammonia as nitrogen) were 0.018, 0.014, 0.013, 0.009 mg L?1 at 15°C temperature; 0.023, 0.019, 0.016 and 0.012 mg L?1 at 20°C; 0.029, 0.026, 0.018 and 0.014 mg L?1 at 25°C. The temperature increase from 15 to 25°C caused an increase of ammonia‐N susceptibility by 21.80%, 9.55%, 31.92% and 30.87%, after 24, 48, 72 and 96 h exposure respectively. Furthermore, we found that exposure of fish to ammonia‐N caused an elevation in total haemoglobin and blood glucose with an increase of 2 mg L?1 concentration. Ammonia levels tolerated, especially in different temperatures levels, have important implications for the management of aquaculture.  相似文献

Dietary arginine requirement of Heteropneustes fossilis fry (3.0 ± 0.5 cm; 5.1 ± 0.3 g) was determined by feeding casein‐gelatin‐based isonitrogenous (400 g kg?1 crude protein) and isocaloric (17.97 kJ g?1) amino acid test diets containing graded levels of l ‐arginine (15, 17, 19, 21, 23 and 25 g kg?1 dry diet) for 12 weeks. Maximum absolute weight gain (AWG) (44.4), best feed conversion ratio (FCR) (1.22), highest protein retention efficiency (PRE%) (41%), energy retention efficiency (ERE%) (75%), best condition factor, hepatosomatic index and viscerosomatic index were noted at 21 g kg?1 arginine of the dry diet. Maximum body protein (189.8 g kg?1) was also obtained in fish fed above diet. Highest haematocrit value (35%), Hb concentration (9.54 g dL?1), RBC count (3.44 × 109 mL?1) and lowest Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (1.93 mm h?1) were obtained at the above level of arginine in the diet. AWG, FCR, PRE% and ERE% data were analysed using broken‐line and an exponential fit to obtain more precise dietary arginine requirement. On the basis of broken‐line and exponential analyses of AWG, FCR, PRE and ERE data, inclusion of dietary arginine in the range of 20.4–22.6 g kg?1 dry diet, corresponding to 51–56.5 g kg?1 dietary protein, is recommended for formulating arginine‐balanced feeds for rearing H. fossilis fry.  相似文献

Toxicity of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) was investigated in juvenile hybrid sturgeon Acipenser ruthenus ♂ × A. baeri♀, an important coldwater finfish farmed in China and other countries. Seven experimental diets (Diet A–G) containing different levels of AFB1 (0, 1, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 80 μg kg?1 diet) were fed to juvenile sturgeon weighing 10.53 ± 0.17 g kg?1 to determine its effect on survival, growth, feed consumption, hematocrit, liver histology as well as muscular and hepatic toxin accumulation. The experiment lasted for 35 days and was conducted in two periods of 25 and 10 days each. No external changes or unusual behaviour was observed in the fish fed diets with AFB1. Mortality was observed in fish fed with highest levels of AFB1 (80 μg kg?1– Diet G) from day 12 onwards. After 25 days, fish fed the diet of 80 μg AFB1 kg?1 showed significant lower survival (50 ± 5.77%) followed by those fed 40 μg AFB1 kg?1 diet (80 ± 5.77%) and 20 μg AFB1 kg?1 diet (86.66 ± 3.33%). No significant difference was observed in specific growth rate (SGR) or hepatosomatic index (HSI) between groups. Hematocrit was significantly higher in the fish fed the diet of highest AFB1. The fish were weighed at day 25 in some treatments (Diets F and G) because of high mortality. However, feeding was continued for another 10 days to observe mortality or behavioural changes if any in the other groups. After 35 days, survival in the fish fed Diet F (40 μg AFB1 kg?1) was 40% and those fed Diet E (20 μg AFB1 kg?1) was 36.2%. Significant histopathological changes including nuclear hypertrophy, hyperchromasia, extensive biliary hyperplasia, focal hepatocyte necrosis and presence of inflammatory cells were observed in the liver of fish fed high levels of aflatoxin (40 and 80 μg kg?1). AFB1 accumulation in fish muscle and liver increased with increased dietary AFB1 levels. It could be confirmed that 10 μg AFB1 kg?1 diet was the maximum allowable level in hybrid sturgeon diet.  相似文献

Experiments were designed to determine the effects of temperature and salinity on the virulence of Edwardsiella tarda to Japanese flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. In the temperature experiment, a two‐factor design was conducted to evaluate the effects of both pathogen incubation temperature and fish cultivation temperature on pathogen virulence. E. tarda was incubated at 15, 20, 25 and 30±1°C, and the fish (mean weight: 10 g) were reared at 15, 20 and 25±1°C respectively. The fish reared at different temperatures were infected with the E. tarda incubated at different temperatures. The results of a 4‐day LD50 test showed that temperature significantly affected the virulence of E. tarda (P<0.01) and the interaction between the two factors was also significant (P<0.01). For fish reared at 15°C the virulence of E. tarda was the highest at 25°C of pathogen incubation, followed by 20, 15 and 30°C. When the fish rearing temperature was raised to 20 and 25°C, the virulence of E. tarda incubated at all temperatures increased. Isolation testing demonstrated results similar to those of LD50. The higher rearing temperature increased the proliferation rate of the pathogen in fish. In the salinity experiment, the incubation salinity of E. tarda was at 0, 10, 20 and 30 g L?1, respectively, and the fish with mean weight of 50 g were cultured in natural seawater of 30 g L?1. The results of one‐way anova in 4‐day LD50 test showed that incubation salinity significantly affected virulence. Virulence was lower when the salinity of the incubation medium was at 0 and 30 g L?1, higher at 10 and 20 g L?1. The results of isolation test were in accordance with those of LD50. At 20 g L?1E. tarda had a faster proliferation rate than that at 10 g L?1.  相似文献

The effects of acclimation temperature (15, 20, 25 °C) on routine oxygen consumption and post-exercise maximal oxygen consumption rates (MO2) were measured in juvenile shortnose sturgeon (Acipenser brevirostrum LeSueur, 1818). The routine MO2 of shortnose sturgeon increased significantly from 126.75 mg O2 h?1 kg?1 at 15 °C to 253.13 mg O2 h?1 kg?1 at 25 °C. The temperature coefficient (Q 10) values of the routine metabolic rates ranged between 1.61 and 2.46, with the largest Q 10 values occurring between 15 and 20 °C. The average post-exercise MO2 of all temperature groups increased to a peak value immediately following the exercise, with levels increasing about 2-fold among all temperature groups. The Q 10 values for post-exercise MO2 ranged from 1.21 to 2.12, with the highest difference occurring between 15 and 20 °C. Post-exercise MO2 values of shortnose sturgeon in different temperature groups all decreased exponentially and statistically returned to pre-exercise (resting) levels by 30 min at 15 and 20 °C and by 60 min at 25 °C. The aerobic metabolic scope (post-exercise maximal MO2-routine MO2) increased to a maximum value ～156 mg O2 h?1 kg?1 at intermediate experimental temperatures (i.e., 20 °C) and then decreased as the temperature increased to 25 °C. However, this trend was not significant. The results suggest that juvenile shortnose sturgeon show flexibility in their ability to adapt to various temperature environments and in their responses to exhaustive exercise.  相似文献

Protein requirement of silver barb, Puntius gonionotus fingerlings   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
Five iso‐energetic (15.05 MJ kg?1) semi‐purified diets with graded levels of crude protein, i.e. 200 (D‐1), 250 (D‐2), 300 (D‐3), 350 (D‐4) and 400 (D‐5) g kg?1 diet were fed to Puntius gonionotus fingerlings (average weight 0.88 ± 0.03 g) in triplicate groups (15 healthy fish per replicate) for a period of 90 days to determine the optimum protein requirement of the fish. Fifteen flow‐through cement tanks of 100‐L capacity with a flow rate of 0.5 L min?1 were used for rearing the fish. Specific growth rate (SGR), food conversion (food gain) ratio (FCR), nutrient digestibility and retention, digestive enzyme activity, RNA : DNA ratio and tissue composition were used as response parameters with respect to dietary protein levels and feed intake. The mean weight gains of fish after 90 days were 10.84 ± 0.27, 11.07 ± 0.12, 14.09 ± 0.20, 11.27 ± 0.12 and 10.91 ± 0.25 g for D‐1, D‐2, D‐3, D‐4 and D‐5, respectively. Maximum SGR (3.13 ± 0.02% per day), RNA : DNA ratio (10.09 ± 0.09), tissue protein content (160 ± 0.1 g kg?1 wet weight), protease activity (25.27 ± 0.47 μg of leucine liberated mg tissue per protein h?1 at 37 °C) and minimum FCR (1.60 ± 0.02) was found in D‐3 group fed with 300 g kg?1 protein level. All these parameters were negatively affected with the further increase in protein level in the diet. Digestibility of protein, lipid and energy was not affected because of variation in dietary protein levels and nitrogen intake of fish. Maximum energy retention (27.68 ± 0.12%) was recorded at 300 g kg?1 dietary crude protein fed group. However, using broken line regression analysis, the maximum growth was found to be at 317.7 g kg?1 dietary protein. Hence, it may be concluded that the protein requirement of P. gonionotus fingerling is 317.7 g kg?1 diet with a resultant P/E ratio of 21.1 g protein MJ?1.  相似文献

The digestible protein (DP) and digestible energy (DE) requirements for maintenance and growth of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) were determined using a factorial model at either optimum (15 °C) or elevated temperature (19 °C). Several key parameters of the factorial model were measured using a series of inter‐related studies. The maintenance requirements for DP and DE were 0.10 gDP kg?0.69 day?1 (15 °C) and 0.31 gDP kg?0.78 day?1 (19 °C), and 34.86 kJDE kg?0.84 day?1 (15 °C) and 46.14 kJDE kg?0.86 day?1 (19 °C). The total requirements for DP were 0.10 gDP kg?0.69 day?1 + 2.14PG (protein gain) (15 °C) and 0.31 gDP kg?0.78 day?1 + 1.98PG (19 °C). The total requirements for DE were 36.86 kJDE kg?0.84 day?1 + 1.58EG (energy gain) (15 °C) and 46.14 kJDE kg?0.86 day?1 + 1.64EG (19 °C). The partial efficiencies for growth were 0.47 (15 °C) and 0.51 (19 °C) for protein, and 0.63 (15 °C) and 0.61 (19 °C) for energy. Nutrient gain was lower at the elevated temperature; however, feed formulation for brook trout should be adjusted to match changes in nutrient requirements at different culture temperatures. The protein and energy requirements model will be useful for developing commercial feeds and feeding charts for brook trout.  相似文献
