EPA and DHA Requirements in Early Juvenile Red Sea Bream Using HUFA Enriched <i>Artemia Nauplii</i>

Juvenile gilthead sea bream (Sparus auratus

In teleost fish, as in other vertebrates, calcium is of key importance for numerous physiological processes. The skeleton of vertebrates consists mainly of calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate. It serves an important role as it determines body shape, protective aspects (scales, bone plates) and as a buffer internal reservoir for calcium and phosphorus. In teleosts, ~99% of the whole-body cal...

The effects of dietary retinoic acid on body lipid deposition in juvenile red sea bream

A 6-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary retinoids, especially retinoic acid, an anti-adipogenic factor in mammals, on lipid deposition in juvenile red sea bream Ž . Ž initial body weight: 8.5 g . The fish were fed either a commercial diet control: diet 1, crude . Ž . protein 61.7%, crude fat 13.9% , or diets supplemented with 100 mg retinyl acetate diet 2 , 10...

Effects of enriched artemia on growth and survival of juvenile freshwater crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus Esch. 1823)

The experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of artemia enriched with lipid emulsions containing highly unsaturated fatty acids on growth and survival of juvenile freshwater crayfish Astacus leptodactylus. Juvenile crayfish were fed artemia enriched with commercial emulsions (red pepper and olio ω3) and un-enriched artemia (control). The highest eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) level was ...
