Abstract A feeding trial with Macrobrachium acanthurus juveniles was performed to determine growth performance and utilization of diets varying in protein, lipid, and carbohydrate level. Twelve diets were formulated with three levels of protein (P) and supplemented with different proportions of lipids (L) and carbohydrates (C): P30‐L20‐C8, P30‐L15‐C19,

Welfare of Decapod Crustaceans with Special Emphasis on Stress Physiology
Despite the growing concern on animal welfare in crustacean farming, both from legislative bodies as well as the common public, studies on welfare are limited and transfer to routine farming is missing. While biocertification schemes such as the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) involve a welfare dimension, these dimensions cannot be communicated ...

Total ammonia and nitrite combined generated antagonism. Less severe damage occurred on gills exposed to ammonia and nitrite. High THC are found in the highest concentrations of the nitrogen compounds. Abstract The present study evaluated the isolated and combined effect of total ammonia and nitrite on Macrobrachium amazonicum adults through the median

Balancing protein and energy in Nile tilapia feeds: A meta‐analysis
Abstract Farmed fish are increasingly grown in intensive and semi‐intensive systems where most nutrients are provided by formulated feeds. These are formulated to minimise costs and optimise growth, notably the rate of muscle protein synthesis (i.e., fillet). Protein synthesis depends on the availability of amino acids (i.e., protein) and energy. Thus,

Cryoprotectant agents and cooling effect on embryos of Macrobrachium amazonicum [PDF]
SummaryThere are few reports of cryopreservation and injuries in Macrobrachium amazonicum embryos. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze the effects of cryoprotectants agents and cooling on stage VIII of this species. Fertilized eggs from ovigerous females were removed from the incubation chamber, then placed in 10 ml Falcon tubes with a ...
