The effect of spray‐dried porcine plasma on gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) intestinal microbiota
(Wiley, 2020-01-24)
The effect of spray‐dried porcine plasma (SDPP) on the intestinal histological organization and autochthonous microbiota composition was evaluated in Sparus aurata. Fish were fed a basal diet (51 g/kg ...
Morphological description of the midgut tract and midgut–hindgut junction in the larvae of the spider crab Maja brachydactyla Balss, 1922 (Malacostraca: Decapoda)
(Elsevier, 2022-07-12)
The midgut tract of decapods is a digestive organ involved in the synthesis of peritrophic membrane, food transport, absorption of nutrients, and osmoregulation. The midgut tract has been described in ...
