Abstract:
... Tilapia is the second most prolific species grown in aquaculture after carp, and is widely grown in >100 countries. Myostatin (MSTN) has been proved to be a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth. Mutation of MSTN gene resulted in significant increase in both body size and muscle mass in vertebrates, mostly with a species-specific effect. To generate a new strain in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis ...

... A feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary protein hydrolysates from common carp (Cyprinus carpio) by‐products on the antioxidant status of zebrafish (Danio rerio). Common carp by‐product was hydrolysed using Alcalase to a degree of hydrolysis of 15%. The zebrafish were fed for 44 days with four different diets with increasing levels of carp by‐product hydrolysates (CBH0: 0 g/ ...

Abstract:
... Exploring the mechanism of glucose uptake in the fish intestine is a part of studies aiming to explain the possible usage of carbohydrate, which could reduce the dietary protein level in fish diet. This serves as an effort to make aquaculture more economically and environmentally sustainable. In mammals and few fish species, the sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT-1) is supposed to be i ...

Abstract:
... Lipoic acid (LA) is a water- and lipid-soluble molecule with capacity to pass through cell membranes and with several antioxidant properties. Previous studies have shown that polymeric nanocapsules with LA favor the protection of this antioxidant, increasing their physical and chemical stability compared to formulations containing free LA. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effe ...
