Fermented soybean meal (FSM) is used as a potential substitute for fishmeal in various aquatic species due to its enriched nutrient profile. This study is aimed to investigate the effect of two different kinds of FSM on growth and protein metabolism in the Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis). ...

Shrimp is the most popular seafood in the United States; its production plays an important role in the aquaculture industry. However, shrimp farming causes various environment impacts that must be mitigated to ensure the sustainability of shrimp production. This study performed a life cycle...

A 60-day culture experiment was designed to investigate the effect of dietary phosphatidylcholine/soybean lecithin (PC/SL) levels on survival, growth, body composition, antioxidant, and osmoregulation ability of early juvenile mud crab Scylla paramamosain. Six isonitrogenous and isolipidic...

The effects of different fattening diet combinations on the growth, nutritional value, and flavor of Eriocheir sinensis were compared. Four different fattening diet combinations were evaluated: A1, consisting of 80% iced trash fish (ITF) + 20% formulated diet (FD); A2, consisting of 80% ITF + 20%...

A feeding trial was carried to assess the cost effective diet for giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) in earthen pond (0.02 ha) for 180 days. Control and experimental diets were prepared with 30% crude protein each using the locally available cheaper protein sources viz., sunflower...

Feed effectors have been suggested to improve the efficiency of plant-based shrimp diets by increasing attractability and palatability. This research trial aimed to expand upon previous Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) research involving plant-based diets, feed effectors and passive...

Numerous advanced soybean meal (SBM) products are available in the market today, which were produced through modified or improved methodologies from the traditional solvent extraction procedure, to reduce or eliminate the antinutritional factors and improve bioavailability of nutrients. Despite the ...

The study evaluated the effects of bile acids (BA) supplementation in soybean meal (SBM)-based diet on growth, cholesterol concentrations, nutrient digestibility and moulting-related gene expression in white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. Control diet with 485.1 g kg^-1 SBM was supplemented with 0, 1 ...

The effects of dietary lipid sources on growth performance, feed utilization, hematological characteristics, antioxidant capacity and tissue fatty acid profiles were assessed in juvenile swimming crab (Portunus trituberculatus). Six isonitrogenous (approximately 45% crude protein) and isolipidic...

This article discusses the successful application of aquamimicry fermented soyabeans (AFSY)in extensive and semi-intesive farming of black tiger shrimps and whiteleg shrimps in some parts of Thailand, Vietnam, Ecuador and India. The overall methodology of pellet-free farming by using AFSY as a...
