The present study was carried out in order to establish an economical effective diet for the pacific white shrimp in the southern part conditions of Iran. Three dietary energy levels (E1=262, E2=312, E3=362 Kcal 100 g-1 diet) and 6 ratios of fish meal (FM): soybean meal (SBM) [(P1= 100% FM+ 0% SBM), (P2= 80% FM+ 20% SBM),(P3= 60% FM+ 40% SBM), (P4= 40% FM+ 60% SBM), (P5= 20% FM+ 80% SBM...

The price of aqua feed containing Dunaliella salina meal was calculated. Also, the formulated feed’s protein, lipid, and total carotenoid content were examined. shrimp D. higher than commercial with better protein in feed. This indicated that inclusion microalgae may increase coloration growth shrimp. We recommend using these fish aquaculture necessary investment production.

Three experiments of 60 days duration were conducted in post larval stage of Indian white shrimp, Fenneropenaeus indicus, to explore the appropriate protein: lipid ratios in their diets. A common ingredient mixture consisting of; fish meal, shrimp meal, ground nut oil cake, cholesterol, lecithin, vitamins and minerals blended with chicken egg albumin, tapioca flour and cellulose (filler) was us...

Forty-five fungal isolates from moldy supermarket foods were tested for toxicity to brine shrimp, and twenty-two of these isolates were subsequently tested for toxicity to chicken embryos. Highly toxigenic fungi were Cladosporium sphaerospermum from a bakery product, Fusarium oxysporum from carrots, F. solani from cabbage, Aspergillus niger and Penicillium corylophilum from bread, P. cyclopium ...

The poor growth of aquatic animals fed with diets containing high plant proteins has been attributed to low diet acceptability and feed value. Supplementation protein hydrolysate, contents free amino acids soluble molecular weight peptides, may increase the value a protein-based diet. In present work, squid processing by-products were enzymatically hydrolyzed used as supplement in diet, without...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the sensory quality Pacific white shrimp (L. vannamei) fed diets in which fish meal replaced by soy protein concentrate. Four were evaluated, with different levels replacement (33%, 66% and 100%) In analysis, 50 tasters evaluated using ordering preference test acceptability shrimp. inclusion vegetable source diet showed no difference discriminatory did not ...

Recent studies have shown that feeding diets supplemented with fish meal containing high levels of biogenic amines to shrimp reduced growth and feed consumption. An improvement in growth, however, has been found in shrimp fed a diet supplemented with histamine and cadaverine. The objective of the current experiment was to provide more information about the effect of dietary histamine on the gro...

The aim of this study was to assess the relative contribution of natural productivity and compound food to the growth of the juvenile blue shrimp Litopenaeus stylirostris reared in a biofloc system. Two experiments were carried out based on the same protocol with three treatments: clear water with experimental diet (CW), biofloc with experimental diet (BF) and biofloc unfed (BU). Shrimp surviva...

OBJECTIVE To validate a novel photographic portion guide as a tool to estimate consumption of fish and shrimp. Application of such a validated tool can facilitate accurate individual and community seafood intake assessments and provide meaningful data relative to health benefits and hazard assessment, particularly in response to environmental contamination and disasters. DESIGN A photographic...

A survey of 101 shrimp farms in Ecuador revealed that the average annual yield based on production pond water surface area was 7.03 ± 0.93 (SE) t/ha/year. The range among five provinces with 3.67 0.71 to 11.95 5.56 t/ha year, respectively. Averages for total land, water, and energy use were 0.54 0.01 ha/t shrimp, 76,817 6,330 m3/t 61.2 4.2 GJ/t Average wild fish meal oil included feed 0.65 0.02...
