Welfare of Decapod Crustaceans with Special Emphasis on Stress Physiology

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
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 ...

Gill and haematological alterations in Macrobrachium amazonicum adults in acute exposure to ammonia and nitrite isolated and combined

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 5, Page 414-424, October 2022., 2022
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

Cryoprotectant agents and cooling effect on embryos of Macrobrachium amazonicum [PDF]

Zygote, 2018
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 ...

Balancing protein and energy in Nile tilapia feeds: A meta‐analysis

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1757-1778, September 2022., 2022
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,

Variations of digestive enzymatic activity of the longarm river prawn, Macrobrachium tenellum (Smith 1871) adapted from the wild to culture with prepared meals

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 681-692, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Macrobrachium tenellum is an omnivorous freshwater prawn living in rivers near the coast and in coastal lagoons with potential to be cultured. It is distributed in rivers, estuaries, and coastal lagoons, and in each of those habitats, it has access to food items with different features and nutritional content.

Composition of shrimp populations (Crustacea: Decapoda) in non-vegetated areas of two river islands in a Brazilian Amazon estuary

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2013
This study investigates the shrimp found in non-vegetated areas of an estuary of the Amazon River. We ascertained the input of juveniles, species' biometrics and the influence of environmental factors on the abundance of species.

Influence of salinity on survival, growth, hemolymph osmolality, gill sodium potassium ATPase activity, and sodium potassium chloride co‐transporter expression in the redclaw crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 466-474, April 2021., 2021
Abstract The Australian redclaw crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus is a freshwater crustacean aquacultured in many countries. Redclaw crayfish are often exposed to saline waters in attempts to improve flavor, to relieve stress during transport, and to prevent or treat parasitic infestations.
