Short-term enrichment of microalgae with inorganic selenium and zinc and their effects on the mineral composition of microalgae and marine rotifer Brachionus plicatilis
(Wiley, 2021-11-12)
Rotifers are widely used as a live prey for finfish larvae, although their content in minerals such as selenium and zinc is lower than in fish. In the present study, mixed microalgae (i.e., Isochrysis ...
Impact of dietary porcine blood by-products in meagre (Argyrosomus regius) physiology, evaluated by welfare biomarkers and the antibacterial properties of the skin mucus
(Elsevier, 2021-09-14)
Tools are required for quick and easy preliminary evaluation of functional feeds efficiency on fisheries. The analysis of skin mucus biomarkers is a recent alternative approach providing a faster feed-back ...
