It is an urgent problem to find suitable replacement of fish oil (FO) in aquatic feeds due to the stagnant production and rising prices of FO. To evaluate the substitution of vegetable oils for FO in the diet of Litopenaeus vannamei (L. vannamei), four diets containing FO, linseed oil (LO), soybean ...

The growth response, total hemocyte count (THC), respiratory burst (release of superoxide anion), phenoloxidase (PO) activity, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity as well as resistance to the pathogen Vibrio alginolyticus were measured in Litopenaeus vannamei,...

This study evaluated the effects of cannabidiol (CBD) on growth performance, appetite, antioxidant capacity and liver inflammatory gene expression in juvenile large yellow croaker (Larmichthys crocea) fed diets with fish oil replaced by soybean oil. Six iso-nitrogenous and isolipidic diets were...

A 10-week feeding trial was conducted to examine the effects of fishmeal (FM) substitution by different types of FSBM on growth performance, antioxidant capacity and inflammatory responses of turbot juveniles (Scophthalmus maximus L.). Four strains of microorganisms Saccharomycopsis fibuligera...

Glucose and lipid metabolisms are central in determining the growth and the health status of cultured fish and thus are of pivotal interest for modern aquaculture. Adiponectin is a fat-derived hormone that plays a vital role in glucose and lipid homeostasis. While abundant knowledge is available on ...

A 10-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of individual and combined inclusion of phytase and protease on the growth performance, digestive ability, immune response and muscle amino acid profile of gibel carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) fed low phosphorus (LP) and/or low fish ...

Oxylipins formed from polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) play an important role in normal physiology and function. Therefore, oxylipin profiles have been revealed in many species such as human, rats and even non-mammals. However, it is rarely studied in fish, a species known to be an excellent...

An 8-week growth experiment was conducted to investigate effects of tributyrin (TB) supplementation on growth performance, intestinal digestive enzyme activity, antioxidant capacity, and inflammation-related gene expression of juvenile large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) (initial weight of)...

The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of vegetable oil replacement on intramuscular fat deposition and flesh quality of large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) juveniles. Five experiment diets were formulated with different vegetable oils substituting fish oil (fish oil...

An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to study the effects of fishmeal substitution by different levels of α-galactosidase hydrolytic soybean meal (EhSBM) on growth, antioxidant capacity, inflammatory responses and intestinal health of turbot juveniles (Scophthalmus maximus L.). Four isonitrogenous ...
