Abstract:

This study evaluated the suitability of canola oil as a source of supplemental dietary lipid for rainbow trout. Triplicate groups of the 30 fingerlings held under identical culture conditions were fed twice daily by iso-nitrogenous, iso-calorific and iso-lipidic diets for eight weeks. Experimental diets consisted of 30.3% protein, 18.7 kJg-1 energy and 16.7% lipid from fish oil (FO), canola oil (CO) and 1:1 blend of the two oils (FCO). Moisture, ash, protein, lipid, final body weight, condition factor, feed conversion ratio, survival and hepatosomatic indices were not affected by treatments. Specific growth rate and weight gain of fish reared on fish oil diet (FOD) and canola oil diet (COD) were significantly higher than those fed with the fish and canola oils diet (FCOD). Protein efficiency ratio was highest in fish fed with the COD. Whole body fatty acid compositions mirrored those of diet treatments. The highest amounts of HUFAs were detected in fish fed with FOD, which was significantly different from other treatments. In all treatments PUFAs/SFAs and n-6/n-3 ratios were higher than 0.45 and lower than 4, respectively. Our results indicate the fingerlings can be reared on diets in which FO has been replaced with CO, with no significant effects on fish growth performance.

Effect of black cumin oil (Nigella sativa) on the growth performance, body composition and fatty acid profile of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

            In this study, rainbow trout were fed for a total of 144 days with different feed mixes containing 0.00%, 0.10%, 0.40%, 0.70%, 1.00% and 1.30% black cumin oil. The effect of black cumin oil on the growth performance, feed content and fatty acid composition of rainbow trout was researched. The starting weight of fish in the experimental group was approximately 60 gr., which increased...
