an 8-week feeding experiment was carried out on beluga (huso huso) juvenile to evaluate the effects of different levels of fish oil containing n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (n-3 hufas) on fish growth and fatty acid composition. the requirements of beluga juvenile for n-3 hufas were studied by feeding fish diets containing six different levels of n-3 hufas ranging from 1.56 to 17.25% (% of ...

fish oil is the important fat source in fish nutrition. high demand for fish oil and low global supply arise a need of alternative oils in fish culture. plant oils are a good candidate in this case. the aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy of fish oil and linseed oil on growth and stress resistance of tiger barb ( puntius tetrazona ) larvae. artemia nauplii were enriched by 2.5,...

Milk was collected from 20 primiparous Holstein cows that were distributed into four groups and arranged in a completely randomized design with a 35-day period to determine the effect of feeding fish oil, soybean oil, or their combination on milk production and composition. Experimental diets consisted of: 1) control diet; 2) a diet with 3% (DM basis) added fat from menhaden fish oil; 3) a diet...

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...

The aim of the study was to determine an influence of diet additives in a form of protected palm oil, protected fish oil or unprotected fish oil with glycerol in Polish Holstein-Friesian cows on milk fatty acid composition, metabolism, milk yield and milk composition. Milk production, milk fat, and milk protein did not differ statistically between the groups. A significant increase (P<0.01) in ...

Pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione (TZD), is widely used as an insulin sensitizer in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, body weight gain is frequently observed in TZD-treated patients. Fish oil improves lipid metabolism dysfunction and obesity. In this study, we demonstrated suppression of body weight gain in response to pioglitazone administration by combination therapy of pioglitazone ...

The effect of fish oil and corn oil supplementation on plasma lipids and lipoproteins and on low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation was examined in 20 treated hypertensive subjects. The randomized double-blind crossover study consisted of two 6-week interventions with 4 g/day of a highly purified fish oil or corn oil. Fish oil significantly (-24%, P < 0.01) reduced plasma triglyceride, and inc...

We have previously shown nutritional intervention with fish oil (n-3 PUFA) to reduce numerous complications associated with the metabolic syndrome (MetS) in the JCR:LA-corpulent (cp) rat. In the present study, we sought to explore the potential role of fish oil to prevent glomerulosclerosis in JCR:LA-cp rats via renal eicosanoid metabolism and lipidomic analysis. Male lean and MetS JCR:LA-cp ra...

Differences in the coagulation and fibrinolytic system of rats fed a fish oil based diet (fish oil diet) and fed a soybean oil based diet (control diet) were determined. Concentrations of plasma lipids were depressed in rats fed the fish oil diet. Prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of rats fed the fish oil diet were longer than for the rats fed the control di...

to estimate the effect of microencapsulated fish oil on blood metabolites, rumen and blood plasma fatty acids concentrations twelve sannan dairy goats with 30 ± 5 days in milk (dim) were allocated to 3 treatments in a 3×2 change over design with 2 periods of 30 days. treatments were: 1) the control (without fish oil), 2) microencapsulated fish oil (2% fish oil capsulated in 6% treated whey prot...
