The influence of replacing diet fish meal LT94 (FM) with different levels of full fat soybean meal (FFSB) on growth performance and enzymes activity in stomach, hepato-pancreas and intestine were investigated for Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. Four diets (D1, D2, D3 and D4) were formulated 0, 15, 20, and 20 g/100 protein of diets + DL-methionine by replacing FFSB with fish meal respectivel...

Fish inhabiting polluted waters accumulate various metals in tissues. The transfer of these into human beings through the food chain has adverse effects. The present study was undertaken to elicit the effect of consumption of contaminated fish meal on the hematological parameters of albino rats, Rattus norvegicus (Album). Thirty rats, weighing 45-50gms and randomly divided into 5 groups (n=6), ...

Apparent amino acid availability coefficients of several typical and novel feed ingredients were determined in rainbow trout using extruded diets and the faecal stripping technique. The ingredients were tested included five fish meals, three terrestrial animal by-products, five plant protein concentrates, four plant meals, and seven low-protein plant ingredients. Amino acid availability from th...

fishing per somewhat longer voyage and more fish per day at sea and per ton of fuel. These two British pioneer experiments have indicated two possible ways of improving the exploitation of wide-ranging fisheries. 'Those who rely on supplies brought in by distant-water trawlers may before very long be freezing sizeable quantities at sea' (European Productivity Agency of the Organisation for Euro...

The objectives of the current study were to 1) determine whether a fish-meal-supplemented diet fed to ewes during late gestation and early lactation would increase the proportion of docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3) in colostrum and milk and 2) examine the subsequent effect on the plasma fatty acid profile of nursing lambs. Eight gestating ewes (Rideau-Arcott; 97 +/- 5 kg of initial BW; 100 d of g...
