This study was carried out to investigate the effect of replacing fish meal protein with fermented soybean meal (FSM) in diets on growth performance, feed utilization, morphological parameters, body composition, activities of antioxidant and digestive enzymes and also blood biochemistry of juvenile olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Five isonitrogenic and isolipidic diets were prepare...

a study of the biokinetics of anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste (msw) was carried out using anaerobic batch digester. from the experimental results, the kinetic parameters (coefficient values) of the digestion of the msw were determined. the maximum rate of substrate utilization (k), saturation constant (ks), endogenous decay coefficient (kd), biomass yield or microbial growth yield ...

In the current study, the effect of dietary supplementation of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) on growth performance, digestive enzymes activity, body composition, non-specific immune response and diseases resistance of rainbow trout fingerlings were investigated. Five hundred and fifty-two healthy fingerlings (8.2±1.0 g) were randomly distributed in 12 tanks (150 L) at a density of 46 fish/ tank ...

evaluation of carbon sequestration ability by chlorella vulgaris in water with different salinity expanded abstractintroductionnowadays, cultivation of microalgae in order to reduce co2 has gained attention all around the world. one of the outstanding features is that photosynthetic efficiency of microalgae is greater than that of terrestrial plants. carbon dioxide (co2) has been known as one o...

Growth, feed conversion ratio and fillet composition of rainbow trout (initial weight of 9.99±0.109)were investigated in a 6x2 factorial design experiment employing two levels of digestible energy (DE) (2900 and 3500kcal.kg-1) and six feeding rates (1.0%, 2.0%, 3.0%, 4.0%,5.0% of the body weight,(BW) day-1 and to satiation) for 60 days. Specific growth rate (SGR) was highest at 5.0% rati...

The objective of this study was to investigate the growth rate of Chlorella vulgaris for CO2 biofixation and biomass production. Six mathematical growth models (Logistic, Gompertz, modified Gompertz, Baranyi, Morgan and Richards) were used to evaluate the biomass productivity in continuous processes and to predict the following parameters of cell growth: lag phase duration (λ), maximum specific...
