There is growing interest in the use of single cell proteins (SCPs) derived from methanotrophic bacteria for inclusion aquafeed to reduce reliance on other, potentially less sustainable proteins. This two‐part experiment aimed investigate first (i) dose effect replacing soy protein concentrate with SCP Australian hybrid abalone diets ( Haliotis laevigata rubra ) and second, (ii) potential improved palatability by using commercially produced liquid hydrolysate (PH). was assessed a 2 ×...
Elevated temperatures and low aquatic oxygen levels are increasingly accompanying climate warming can adversely affect the production welfare of farmed fish. Both environmental factors diet fish energetics. Still, little is known about dietary effects on energetics at elevated how that influences growth. Thus, a feeding trial was conducted to investigate effect two isoenergetic diets, high protein (HP, 57% crude 9% total lipid) lipid (HL, 40% 19% lipid), juvenile barramundi (Lates...
Seasonal changes in water temperature affect the utilization of dietary fatty acids Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.). Furthermore, acid profiles terrestrial oils dictate their suitability terms provision metabolic energy and final product quality. An on-farm, growth trial was conducted Tasmania, Australia over year grow-out (323 days), consisting a 'summer phase' 'winter phase'. Poultry by-product oil, canola oil tallow were fed at high lipid inclusion level (80%) to assess growth, fillet...
Abstract A more efficient utilisation of marine-derived sources dietary n -3 long-chain PUFA ( LC PUFA) in cultured Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L.) could be achieved by nutritional strategies that maximise endogenous synthesis. The objective the present study was to quantify extent biosynthesis and resultant effect on fillet quality large fish. Four diets were manufactured, providing altered levels substrate, namely, 18 : 3 -3, end products, 20 5 22 6 -3. After 283 d feeding, fish grew...
Atlantic salmon are one of the most important fish species in global aquaculture production. However, temperature increases attributed to climatic events impair production during summer. Additionally, nutritional requirements for this when reared under elevated temperatures require elucidation. To address gap, a feeding trial was conducted investigate effect glutamine supplementation—a functional amino acid (AA) energy and gut health—on growth, metabolism, morphology, antioxidant capacity...
