Criopreservation of Pacu sperm (Piaractus mesopotamicus, Holmberg, 1887) [PDF]
Abstract Due to the absence of effective cryopreservation methods for oocytes in fish, there has been a significant focus on protocols for the cryopreservation of male gametes to maintain genetic diversity in captive populations. This study evaluated the efficiency of various penetrating cryoprotectants that may lead to better conservation of ...

Molecular characterization of Serrasalmidae hybrid in the upper Paraná River floodplain using molecular markers. [PDF]
Abstract This study reports the molecular identification of a tambacu—a hybrid of Colossoma macropomum and Piaractus mesopotamicus—in the floodplain of the upper Paraná River using molecular markers. The PCR‐GEL method, based on the analysis of COI and TROP fragments, successfully characterized the hybrid, while PCR‐SEQ, employing RAG2 and TROP markers,

Contribution of Amino Acids in Cereal Grain Products to Precision Feed Formulation for Tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) Using a Digestibility Approach. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Although cereal grain products have low protein content, they can contribute up to 25% of total protein in low‐trophic level/omnivorous fish diets. Thus, understanding the amino acid contribution of these ingredients becomes crucial for meeting the dietary requirements of omnivorous fish.

Toxicidade de crioprotetores em embriões de pacu Piaractus mesopotamicus
Embrioes de pacu Piaractus mesopotamicus foramsubmetidos a sete tratamentos, com o objetivo de setestar a toxicidade de 2 crioprotetores: glicerol edimetilsulfoxido (DMSO), e suas associacoes asacarose, a temperatura ambiente de 28°C. Nenhumembriao sobreviveu aos tratamentos contendo glicerol.O DMSO foi o crioprotetor que apresentou menortoxicidade aos

COMMERCIAL PHYTASE USE IN PACU (Piaractus mesopotamicus)
Phosphorous is one of the most essential nutrients for fi sh. However, an excess of this mineral in fi sh diets in phytate form can lead to higher levels of excreted phosphorous. The phytase enzyme is responsible for the conversion of phytate into organic phosphorous, although it has been suggested that fi sh do not produce this compound, requiring the

EPITHELIOCYSTIS DISEASE IN CULTURED PACU (PIARACTUS MESOPOTAMICUS) IN BRAZIL [PDF]
Epitheliocystis disease was diagnosed in a cultured pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicusHolmberg, 1893) stock on the basis of gross pathological (greyish-white, pinpoint- or pinhead-sized focal areas, connected strongly to the gill lamellae) and histopathological examinations (hypertrophic cells 10-40 µm in size, having a well-defined wall and a central ...
