Digestive enzyme activities during pejerrey (Odontesthes bonariensis) ontogeny
(Elsevier, 2020-02-22)
The first step for assessing and refining the nutritional requirements during the larval and early juvenile stages of a fish is the study of the ontogeny of digestive system functionality. The combination ...
Evaluating the Functional Properties of Spray-Dried Porcine Plasma in Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata) Fed Low Fish Meal Diets
(MDPI, 2022-11-25)
Blood by-products are an untapped source of high-quality ingredients for aquafeeds, containing a broad variety of cytokines, hormones, growth factors, proteins, bioactive peptides, and amino acids. The ...
Development, nutrition, and rearing practices of relevant catfish species (Siluriformes) at early stages
(Wiley, 2021-06-17)
Catfish (Siluriformes) are important species for aquaculture worldwide, with an annual production in 2018 of ca. 6 million t. This review focuses on reassessing larval development, first feeding, and ...
Soybean protein concentrate as a protein source for totoaba (Totoaba macdonaldi) juveniles: Effect on intermediary metabolism and liver histological organization
(Elsevier, 2021-08-31)
This study aimed to investigate the effects of replacing fish meal (FM) with soybean protein concentrates (SPC) on the intermediary metabolism and health of Totoaba macdonaldi juveniles. Fish (initial ...
Yolk Absorption Rate and Mouth Development in Larvae of Dormitator latifrons (Perciformes: Eleotridae)
(MDPI, 2022-12-07)
Fish larvae suffer high starvation mortality during the transition from yolk absorption to exogenous feeding, and the size of the developing buccal structures limits the food they can consume. Determining ...
The importance of pepsin‐like acid protease quantification in aquaculture studies: a revision of available procedures and presentation of a new protocol for its assessment
(Wiley, 2020-02-05)
Assessing the activity of acid pepsin‐like protease is a common procedure in many biological, physiological and nutritional studies in gastric fish species. After reviewing the available literature on ...
Carvacrol, Thymol, and Garlic Essential Oil Promote Skin Innate Immunity in Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata) Through the Multifactorial Modulation of the Secretory Pathway and Enhancement of Mucus Protective Capacity
(Frontiers Media, 2021-03-12)
One of the main targets for the use of phytogenics in aquafeeds is the mucosal tissues as they constitute a physical and biochemical shield against environmental and pathogenic threats, comprising ...
Diet, Immunity, and Microbiota Interactions: An Integrative Analysis of the Intestine Transcriptional Response and Microbiota Modulation in Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata) Fed an Essential Oils-Based Functional Diet
(Frontiers Media, 2021-03-04)
Essential oils (EOs) are promising alternatives to chemotherapeutics in animal production due to their immunostimulant, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties, without associated environmental or ...
Phytogenic Bioactive Compounds Shape Fish Mucosal Immunity
(Frontiers, 2021-06-18)
Aquaculture growth will unavoidably involve the implementation of innovative and sustainable production strategies, being functional feeds among the most promising ones. A wide spectrum of phytogenics, ...
Evaluación de oligosacáridos de manano (MOS) en dietas balanceadas para juveniles de pejelagarto (Atractosteus tropicus)
(Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana. Unidad Iztapalapa, 2018-12-01)
Antecedentes: Los prebióticos son polisacáridos no digestibles por el huésped, pero, por otro lado, son los encargados de estimular la actividad de microorganismos benéficos en el sistema digestivo, lo ...
