The homeostasis of the intestinal microbiota fish is beneficial to health, while food can affect microbiota. Tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) has great economic value and a good model use in studying digestion absorption nutrients. Furthermore, at present, due high demand price high-quality feed raw materials, nutritional composition aquafeeds been changing dynamically. There yet be comprehensive review research conducted on influences dietary macronutrients (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates)...
Abstract To establish an effective feeding regime for the aquaculture of genetically improved farmed Nile Tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (GIFT), this experiment investigated effects frequency and daily ration on growth GIFT fry (initial weight, ca. 0.85 g). A factorial design two frequencies (2 3 meals/d) five rates (2, 4, 6, 8, 10% body weight per day [BW/d]) was carried out over 70 d with three replicates each treatment. At end experiment, fish from treatment were sampled metrics final ( W...
Juvenile Yoshitomi tilapia is often infected by pathogens and results in low-level survival rate. Bacillus subtilis, as a probiotic, may have beneficial effects on Y. with compound 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ), which has antibacterial activities. The of dietary probiotic supplementation tilapias were evaluated. was fed B. subtilis for 56 d. Aeromonas hydrophila rate compared. Dietary increased weight gain rate, specific growth, food conversion ratios intake tilapia. diet improved the cumulative...
Fatty liver disease is a growing problem in fish aquaculture and there an urgent need to identify causes possible remedies. In the present study, effects of treating fatty Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus Linnaeus, 1758) with extract derived from herb, Sedum sarmentosum Bunge (SSB), was investigated. We found that SSB could restore changes feed coefficient, immune capacity, pathological index caused by disease, also prevent apoptosis hepatocytes. An RNA-seq analysis showed treatment...
A computationally efficient, yet relatively simple Eulerian‐Lagrangian method is proposed for solving the one‐dimensional convection‐dispersion solute transport equation assuming a steady or transient velocity field. The uses modified single‐step reverse particle tracking (MSRPT) technique to handle steep concentration fronts. scheme utilizes two weighting factors control movement of particles during backward step. One factor greater than unity used in upstream region convection front, while...
Air‐injection tests are being used to characterize the flow characteristics of fractured volcanic tuffs at Yucca Mountain, Nevada, proposed site for a high‐level nuclear waste repository. As air component flows mainly in heterogeneous fracture system, air‐injection can be determine hydrological properties and parameters networks. In situ have been carried out 30 boreholes drilled rock block 13 × 21.5 18 m 3 underground facility Mountain. These field consist constant rate injection one...
This study investigated the effects of different dissolved oxygen (DO) levels on growth performance, antioxidant response and apoptosis juvenile GIFT (genetically improved farmed tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus). were fed with five DO (1, 2, 3, 4 5 mg/L) for 60 days, results showed that final body weight, weight gain rate, specific rate crude protein lipid contents fish muscle increased at mg/L DO. The activities digestive enzymes significantly up-regulated increasing levels. However,...
This study was explored the supplementary of vitamin E on reproduction tilapia. Five supplements (0, 40, 80, 120 and 160 mg/kg) were tested for 90 days. Results: The SGR, GSI ovarian maturity female highest at Group mg/kg, FCR lowest. testis male levels FSH P significantly increased mg/kg in female, E2 reached maximum. T GnRH male. expression FSHR liver ovary 40 mg/kg. pgr kidney 80 In conclusion, can regulate secretion reproductive hormones during different developmental stages tilapia,...
Catalase is an enzyme that widely occurs in animals and plants. It primarily used to decompose H2O2 the body of prevent oxidative damage biological macromolecules. The present study investigated influence fat levels feeding condition on gene expression catalase (CAT) Genetically Improved Farmed Tilapia (GIFT) tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). A full-length 3063-bp cDNA sequence, encoding 527 amino acid residues CAT, was cloned, altered assayed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. sequence...
This study aimed to investigate the immunoprotective effect of Coptis chinensis (CC) on Streptococcus agalactiae (SA) infection in tilapia. Experimental fish were randomly divided into two groups feeding a normal diet (ND) and CC-supplemented (CCD) for 2 weeks then injected with SA. After inoculation experiment, ND CCD named PI_ND PI_CCD, respectively. increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) significantly before after infection. Immunological assays...
Carnitine acetyltransferase (CAT) and Enoyl-CoA hydratase short-chain 1 (ECHS1) are considered key enzymes that regulate the β-oxidation of fatty acids. However, very few studies have investigated their full length expression in genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT, Oreochromis niloticus), an important aquaculture species China. Here, we cloned CAT ECHS1 full-length cDNA via rapid amplification ends, expressions liver juvenile GIFT were detected different fat carnitine diets, as changes...
This study investigated the effects of adding various concentrations cholesterol and soy lecithin to feed on growth performance, physiology, biochemistry, serum metabolomics Cyprinus carpio var. Two (1 % 2 %) four (0 %, 4 6 were employed, resulting in eight experimental groups (C1S0, C1S2, C1S4, C1S6, C2S0, C2S2, C2S4, C2S6) that cultivated for 60 days. The addition C2S2 feeds enhanced (WGR SGR), antioxidant capacity (CAT, SOD, MDA, T-AOC, GSH-Px), lipid metabolism (TG, LDL-C, HDL-C, LPL,...
Sarmentosin (SA) and Quercetin (QC) are two active components of Sedum Sarmentosum Bunge, which is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine. This study aimed to investigate the role regulatory mechanism SA QC in fatty liver Genetic Improvement Farmed Tilapia (GIFT) tilapia. GIFT tilapia were randomly divided into groups with three replicates per treatment (30 fish each replicate): normal diet group (average weight 3.51±0.31 g) high-fat 3.44±0.09 g). After 8 weeks feeding trial, growth index,...
This study aimed to determine the maximum permissible storage times of blood and serum infected with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV). Viral RNA was successfully extracted from that were stored at room temperature (RT) for 7 days detected by 1-step RT-PCR. The results this demonstrate BVDV-infected can be RT 10 without influencing extraction detection BVDV.
