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...

background: in recent years, many studies have been conducted on finding a suitable replacement for fish meal to supply the needs of aquaculture feed industry. objectives: the present study was performed to examine the effect of replacing fish meal and fish oil with plant sources on bacterial counts in intestinal contents and mucus and bacterial composition in beluga sturgeon. methods: beluga s...

this study was designed to determine the effects of dietary replacement of fish oil with canola oil ongrowth performance, feed efficiency of body and economic indices of experimental diets of juvenilecommon carp (cyprinus carpio). during the experiment 270 juvenile fish with an average initialweight of 16.24 ± 0.10g were randomly distributed in 18 well aerated cylindrical polyethylene tanks(15 ...

Reducing the reliance on fishery by-products as amino acid and fatty acid sources in feeds for farmed fish is a major objective today. We evaluated the effect of dietary fish oil or dietary fishmeal replacement by vegetable oils and plant proteins respectively through analysis of hepatic transcriptomes in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Fish were fed right from first feeding with diets bas...

this study investigates the effects of replacement of fish oil by sunflower oil and colsa oil as the vegetable oils, on growth and nutrition performance and survival rate of  rutilus frissi kutum with initial average weight 3.65±0.39 g over 8 weeks. three diets were supplemented with 8.5% of either fish oil (control), sunflower oil, and colsa oil, respectively in triplicates. after the experime...

Organochlorine pesticide residues and polychlorinated biphenyls were determined in raw materials, fish feeds and fillets from fish exposed through the productive cycle (14 months) to experimental diets with different percentages of fish oil replacement with vegetable oils. Detectable amounts of organochlorine compounds were found in raw materials derived from fish sources with none being detect...

Fish meal and fish oil replacement has been the focus of very significant research efforts and hundreds of scientific papers in recent years. Despite years of research, fish meal and fish oil remain very important, quasi essential, components of successful commercial feeds for most fish and crustacean species. This generally has an impact on the feed and production costs for many aquaculture pr...

Marine oils are important to human nutrition as the major source of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a key omega-3 long-chain (≥C20) polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 LC-PUFA) that is low or lacking in terrestrial plant or animal oils. The inclusion of fish oil as main source of n-3 LC-PUFA in aquafeeds is mostly limited by the increasing price and decreasing availability. Fish oil replacement with ch...
