Supplementation of gilthead seabream

SUPPLEMENTATION OF GILTHEAD SEABREAM (SPARUS AURATA) DIETS WITH SPICES AS A FUNCTIONAL STRATEGY TO CONTROL EXCESS ADIPOSITY THROUGH LIPID, CHOLESTEROL AND BILE ACID METABOLISM, AND TO INDUCE AN IMMUNOMODULATORY INTESTINAL REGULATION

Reductions in fish oil content in aquafeeds can generate physiological and immunological disorders in farmed fish, associated to low dietary levels of n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LC-PUFAs) and increased levels of n-6 PUFAs. Based on mammalian literature, spices could potentially counteract some of these negative effects. To…
IMPACT OF FEEDING DIETS WITH ENHANCED VEGETABLE PROTEIN CONTENT AND PRESENCE OF UMAMI TASTE

IMPACT OF FEEDING DIETS WITH ENHANCED VEGETABLE PROTEIN CONTENT AND PRESENCE OF UMAMI TASTE-STIMULATING ADDITIVE ON GASTROINTESTINAL AMINO ACID SENSING AND FEED INTAKE REGULATION IN RAINBOW TROUT

The regulation of feed intake in fish is dependent upon different neuroendocrine and metabolic mechanisms including amino acid sensing in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). However, there is little information regarding the impact of diets on such mechanisms. Therefore, in this study, we fed rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) with 3 diets:…

SPICY BASED ADDITIVES AS ALTERNATIVES TO VITAMIN E SUPPLEMENTATION AS ANTIOXIDANT IN BROILER CHICKEN FEEDS

Vitamin E (Vit E) is included at high doses in commercial broiler feeds to boost performance because of its antioxidant function. Phytogenic feed additives with antioxidant properties might be used to spare or replace Vit E as antioxidant and reduce costs. Previous studies with an encapsulated product based on spices…
