Early maturation of Atlantic salmon male postsmolts is undesirable in aquaculture due to its negative impact on growth, welfare and seawater adaptation, however it an increasing problem under intensive rearing conditions. The effect temperature feeding ration sexual during the induction smoltification was tested with a 3 × 2 factorial design including three temperatures (8, 12.5 18 °C) two rations (100% 67%), from 28 October 2018 30 May 2019. Fish six resulting treatments (1800 parr, initial...
Insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-1a is one of three major circulating forms in salmon and induced under catabolic conditions. However, there currently no immunoassay available for this form because a lack standard specific antibodies. We developed time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TR-FIA) IGFBP-1a using recombinant labeling, an assay standard, production antiserum. The TR-FIA had low cross-reactivity (3.6%) with IGFBP-1b, another the circulation. Fasting 4 wk effect on serum...
The use of closed containment (CCS) or semi-closed systems (S-CCS) for Atlantic salmon Salmo salar aquaculture is under evaluation in Norway. One such system the Preline S-CCS, a floating raceway that pumps water from 35 m depth creating constant current through system. Exposing fish to moderate currents considered aerobic exercise and it often perceived as positive welfare, growth, food utilization, muscle development cardiac health. present study compared reared S-CCS reference open pen....
