A Synthesis of the Ecology and Conservation of Pseudoplatystoma Catfishes in the Neotropics
Species of the genus Pseudoplatystoma, the long-whiskered catfishes, are important in commercial and recreational fisheries in South America, and some species have become key to regional aquaculture.

Carbohydrates are commonly used in aquaculture feed because they are the cheapest energy source. Promoting carbohydrate catabolism for energy production can increase the dietary protein utilization efficiency (i.e., a protein‐sparing effect). Alpha‐lipoic acid (α‐LA) is a cofactor of some rate‐limiting key enzymes (pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and α ...

Three 56‐day feeding trials were conducted to evaluate dietary lipid requirements and effects of dietary lipid levels on growth, digestive enzyme activities, antioxidant capacity, and lipid metabolism in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.) at three growth stages. The initial mean body weight of turbot was 9.13 ± 0.17 g, 50.10 ± 0.38 g, and 80.05 ± 0.76 g (

Quantitative evaluation of Listeria monocytogenes in fresh and processed surubim fish (Pseudoplatystoma sp). [PDF]
L. monocytogenes is a foodborne psychrotrophic bacterial pathogen of special importance for minimally processed foods. In this work, it was enumerated in samples of surubim fish by MPN technique. The population of L. monocytogenes was estimated as < 0.012 MPN/cm(2) in fresh and < 0.03 MPN/g in minimally processed fish.

Protein requirement in the diet of Heros severus (Heckel, 1840): An Amazonian ornamental fish
Abstract Two experiments to determine the crude protein (CP) requirement of Heros severus were performed. Five isocaloric (3,200 kcal kg−1 of digestible energy) diets containing five levels of CP (28, 32, 36, 40, and 44%) were evaluated. In the first, 75 fingerlings were distributed among 15 aquaria (30 L).

As espécies do gênero Pseudoplatystoma e seus híbridos vêm se consolidando no mercado aquícola brasileiro, devido ao alto valor comercial e a sua boa aceitação no mercado, basicamente em função de uma carne com sabor pouco acentuado, textura firme, coloração clara, baixo teor de gordura e ausência de espinhas intramusculares.

We evaluated the growth and diet composition of hybrid surubim larvae (Pseudoplatystoma corruscans x P. reticulatum) produced in two fish farming by using different systems of feeding with natural plankton: M I, larvae are transferred to fertilized fish ...

Most studies in nutrition for the South American catfish (surubim) were limited to the initial phase of development. However, it is clear that performance and nutrient utilization can change during the life stages of a fish.

Digestibility of feed ingredients for the striped surubimPseudoplatystoma reticulatum [PDF]
Knowledge on apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) is necessary to maximize the feed efficiency, thus lessening dietary nutrient and energy losses. This study tasks the determination of apparent digestibility of selected feedstuff to striped surubim Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum, a carnivorous, South American catfish of economic importance for ...
