Production of artificial diets for female broodstock of western white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and study on their singular effect
Advantages of pelleted feeds in terms of storage, transportation and lower costs compared to natural fresh feed justified the replacement of artificial feeds instead of natural ones partially on maturation performances. This study comprised nine treatments (with three replications) including control treatment: polychaete worm (Perinereis nuntia), Squid and calf liver (natural feed); T1: pellet ...

متن کاملEffect of Fish Meal Replacement with Aqupro on Nutrition and Blood Indices in Fingerling Rainbow trout
The current study was carries out to determine the effect of fish meal replacement with Aqupro on growth, blood indices and liver enzymes activities in fingerling rainbow trout. Number of 540 fish (18 g) were randomly distributed in 18 fiberglass tanks (250 l capacity) and five isoproteic diets were formulated. The fish meal inclusion reduced from 50 percent in diet one to 10 percent in diet fi...

متن کاملProspects for organ and tissue replacement.
Damage or loss of a tissue or organ is common, costly, and tragic. Advances in mechanical artificial organs and organ transplantation have improved the treatment of organ failure, and advances in molecular immunology, tissue engineering, and stem cell biology offer the promise of even better therapeutic modalities for treating organ failure in the future. Enhancement of immune tolerance of tran...
