| Abstract: | The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of three commercial astaxanthin preparations (100 mg kg?1 diet) with different solubilities in water, from DSM (Dutch State Mines), BASF (Badische Anilin and Soda Fabrik) and Wisdom Company on pigmentation of flesh and antioxidation of flesh, serum and liver in rainbow trout with an initial weight of 52.07 g. After 60 days of feeding, there were no significant differences in growth or flesh proximate composition of rainbow trout among groups (P > 0.05); the Salmo Fan score, redness and astaxanthin content of flesh in rainbow trout fed diets supplemented with astaxanthins were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). At 0, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h after thawing, the flesh malondialdehyde (MDA) content of the three astaxanthin groups was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The total antioxidation capacity (T-AOC) of liver in the three astaxanthin groups was significantly higher, but serum catalase (CAT) activities were lower, than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The results indicate that addition of 100 mg kg?1 astaxanthin from DSM, BASF or Wisdom to the diet could improve flesh redness and liver T-AOC, reduce serum CAT, SOD and flesh MDA and extend the shelf life of flesh, in spite of the different solubilities of the three sources in water. |
