Given the pivotal role of Platelet-Activating-Factor (PAF) in atherosclerosis and the cardio-protective role of PAF-inhibitors derived from olive pomace, the inclusion of olive pomace in fish feed has been studied for gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata). The aim of the current research was to elucidate the anti-atherogenic properties of specific HPLC lipid fractions obtained from olive pomace, o...

Inadequate feed causes low productivity of livestock, which is indicated by a slow rate development and body weight. Alternative non-conventional ingredients derived from oil palm waste have shown the potential to be used as livestock feed. Therefore, this study aimed evaluate fiber ash content fronds fermented with liquid organic supplements. The raw material was obtained after grinding follow...

Tolerance to harsh environmental conditions, high growth rates and an amino acid profile adequate for human consumption are beneficial features observed in Dunaliella viridis TAV01, a novel strain isolated from salt pond the Algarve, Portugal. TAV01 was identified down species level by maximum likelihood Bayesian phylogenetic analyses of ribosomal internal transcribed spacers one two regions (I...

Body composition traits have potential use in fish breeding programs as indicator traits for selective improvement of feed efficiency. Moreover, feed companies are increasingly replacing traditional fish meal (FM) based ingredients in feeds for carnivorous farmed fish with plant protein ingredients. Therefore, genetic relationships of composition and feed utilization traits need to be quantifie...

The study carried out a 15-day feeding trial of the fleshy shrimp broodstock that have just finished their first spawn using five different maturation feed types (three manufactured feed, fresh and commercial feed) to induce multiple spawning in then analyzed compared hemolymph levels total protein, lipid, hemocyanin, glucose, cholesterol as well ovary histology between treatments identify pote...

With increases in the global population, there is a need to identify strategies that increase beef output while maintaining or improving health benefits of products. Studies have demonstrated are many human response reducing dietary ratio n-6 n-3. The aim this study was characterize carcass characteristics and brisket muscle fatty acid profile young dairy-bred bulls following supplementation wi...

The effect of combined feed supplements (prilled fat, sweetener and toxin binder) was studied on 24 apparently healthy early lactating rural and urban maintained Murrah buffaloes. The feeding of combined feed supplement was carried out for a period of 90 days. DMI, BCS, body weight were recorded at fortnightly intervals and milk composition was analyzed at weekly intervals. Blood samples were a...

Abstract Enteric fermentation from livestock accounts for over a quarter of the United States' methane emissions. A potent greenhouse gas, has 80 times global warming potential carbon dioxide 20-year period. An emerging focus research is incorporation algae (e.g., kelp, seaweed or microalgae) into feed, with several studies documenting dramatic suppression enteric emissions in cattle. As part n...

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of dietary eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5n-3) on hemocyte parameters such as hemocyte concentration, phagocytosis, and non-stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in Pacific oysters Crassostrea gigas, as well on proximate biochemical and fatty acid compositions. One-year-old oysters (C. gigas) were fed T-Isochrysis aff. galbana (T-Iso), wh...
