Sustainable fish meal-free diets for gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata): integr...
Fernandes, Ana M.; Calduch-Giner, Josep Àlvar; Pereira, Gabriella V.; Fachadas Gato Coelho Gonçalves, Ana Teresa; Dias, Jorge; Johansen, JohanThe growth of the aquaculture industry requires more sustainable and circular economy-driven aquafeed formulas. Thus, the goal of the present study was to assess in farmed gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata L.) how different combinations of novel and conventional fish feed ingredients supported proper animal performance in terms of growth and physiological biomarkers of blood/liver/head kidney. A 77-day feeding ...
The use of defatted Tenebrio molitor larvae meal as a main protein source is su...
Basto, Ana; Calduch-Giner, Josep; Oliveira, Beatriz; Petit, Lisa; Sá, Tiago; Maia, Margarida R. G.; Fonseca, Susana C.; Matos, ElisabeteObjective: This study aims to determine the maximal inclusion level of defatted (d-) Tenebrio molitor larvae meal (TM) able to replace dietary fishmeal (FM) without compromising growth performance, general metabolism, and flesh quality traits in European sea bass, and to evaluate the major underlying physiological mechanisms. Materials and Methods: Fish (55 ± 2 g) were fed with diets containing increasing level...
Immune status and hepatic antioxidant capacity of Gilthead Seabream Sparus aura...
Reis, Bruno; Gonçalves, Ana Teresa; Santos, Paulo; Sardinha, Manuel; Conceição, Luís E. C.; Serradeiro, Renata; Pérez-Sánchez, JaumeThis work aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with β-glucans extracted from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and microalga (Phaeodactylum tricornutum) on gene expression, oxidative stress biomarkers and plasma immune parameters in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) juveniles. A practical commercial diet was used as the control (CTRL), and three others based on CTRL were further supplemented ...
Disruption of gut integrity and permeability contributes to enteritis in a fish...
Sitjà-Bobadilla, Ariadna; Gil-Solsona, Rubén; Estensoro, Itziar; Piazzon, M. C; Martos-Sitcha, Juan A; Picard-Sánchez, Amparo; Fuentes, JuanBackground In the animal production sector, enteritis is responsible for serious economic losses, and intestinal parasitism is a major stress factor leading to malnutrition and lowered performance and animal production efficiency. The effect of enteric parasites on the gut function of teleost fish, which represent the most ancient bony vertebrates, is far from being understood. The intestinal myxozoan parasite ...
