The main objective for the present research was to assess the effect of cyclic starvation and L- carnitine supplementation on growth (body final weight, hepatosomatic index (HSI), daily growth rate (DGI), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and voluntary feed intake (VFI)), body composition (crude protein, crude lipid, ash and moisture), biochemical (plasma total protein, glucose, cholesterol, triglyce...

Abstract The present study aimed to assess the effects of three probiotic-supplemented diets on growth, cecal fermentation, blood biochemical, and intestinal morphological features in growing rabbits reared under summer conditions. Rabbits were allotted into four groups: G1 fed basal diet (control), G2 received Enterococcus faecium (EF) Clostridium butyricum (CB) complexes (1 × 10 8 2.5 6 cfu/k...

A dependence between dietary protein and starch levels flowing to the duodenum has been characterized in monogastric animals for optimal enzymatic secretions of pancreas, but those ruminants remain unclarified. The present experiment was conveyed assess pancreas growth mRNA expression small intestine enzymes growing goats fed a low-protein diet. Twenty-four Liuyang (19.55 ± 3.55 body weight (BW...

A 56 days grow-out experiment with three protein levels (35, 40 and 45%) and three lipid levels (5, 10 and 15%) was conducted to evaluate the optimum protein and lipid ratio for Oriental River Prawn (Macrobrachium nipponense). Four hundred and five prawns, with mean (± SD) weight of 1.40 ± 0.04 g were distributed in 27 glass aquaria and were fed four times daily. Results showed that interaction...

In this study, fish meal (FM) was replaced by the black soldier fly maggot meal (BSFM) with replacement levels at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. The feeding trial was conducted for 56 days and the effect of each replacement level on the growth performance, feed utilization, body composition and survival of the experimental fish was assessed. All the experimental diets were well accepted by the fis...

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of potassium diformate (K-diformate) supplementation in two protein levels on growth, food conversion and survival juvenile white shrimp, litoppenaeusvannamei.Two dietary levels, 41% protein(CP41) 37% protein(CP37) formulated supplemented graded K-diformate 0%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.8%, 1.4% 2.0%.Post larvae shrimp (Litopenaeusvannamei) initial mea...

Hydroxyproline (L-Hyp) is amply present in fishmeal but limited plant-protein sources. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of supplementation with dietary L-Hyp on distribution collagen types muscle, and texture, survival rate, growth feed utilization, body composition as well expression gene that encodes pro-alpha2 chains type I (Col Iα2) large European sea bass (initial weight 60...

Materials and Methods: Searching databases was Cochrane, Pub-med, library studies, and research website of leading researchers in the world from 2002 to early 2012. Results: The literature search shows that cert...

the effect of a commercial probiotic (protexin) on growth performance and survival rate in sobaity sparidentex hasta was investigated. 240 fish with average weight of 2.99±0.87g were treated for 10 weeks. this study was carried out in a completely random design with 12 experimental groups, in 4 treatments each with 3 replicates. experimental groups were consisted of four levels of 0.0, 0.5, 1.0...
