In this study, effect of different levels of dietary protein (25, 35 and 45 per cent) and water salinity (0-3, 12-15 and 32-35 ppt) on antioxidant enzymes of white leg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) was studied. 324 P.vannamei (with mean weight±SE: 5.55 ± 0.18 gr) were randomly distributed in twenty seven tanks. Experimental shrimps were fed by formulated diets for 56 days and at the end of the expe...

This study aims to map and analyze the white-leg shrimp supply chain institutions. research was conducted in July-September 2020. Data were collected using structured interviews in-depth interviews. The results showed that white leg consisted of providers production inputs, cultivators, small traders, collectors, exporters. need for partnerships through professional business management contract...

this investigation was conducted to survey the growth and survival rate, weight average, fcr, and harvestable white leg shrimp biomass during 107 days culture in mono and poly culture earth pond system with mullet fish. nine 600 m2 earth ponds  were prepared and stocked with 20 shrimp post larvae in each pond (mean weight 0.007 ±0.001 g) for three treatments (each with three replication). after...

Prawn, shrimp and crabs sold in Japan are mostly imported from overseas. Detection of irradiated crustaceans is very important for quality assurance. In this study, we used ESR to detect radiation-induced radicals after irradiation of prawn, shrimp and crabs of major species. No radiation-induced radicals were detected in prawn (black tiger prawn) or shrimp (white leg shrimp). Radiation-induced...

In this research, the nutritional effects of Sargassum ilicifolium Chabahar Bay, Oman Sea, on cholesterol levels of white-leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) were studied. The seaweed was collected from coastal areas, rinsed, dried, powdered and the nutritional values were measured in the laboratory. A part of protein resources of shrimp feed replaced with seaweed powder in four treatments (D: as...

this study investigates the effects of garlic extract on salinity and ph stress resistance of white leg shrimp post larvae (0.1±0.01 g). the experiment was carried out on the basis of completely random model with 5 dietary treatments which include 0 (control treatment), 1cc (treatment 1), 2cc (treatment 2), 4cc (treatment 3) and 8cc (treatment 4) per 100g food in triplicate. 1500 shrimps were r...

Cultured shrimp are often exposed to different toxic products during rearing practices that may affect survival and quality of the product. An evaluation of the effects of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSP) from species of Gymnodinium catenatum in white leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) has been carried out in this study. Death was observed at doses > 5.0 MU (equivalent to 1.1 mug/g of STX), whil...

background: shell is one of the most important by-products of shrimp processing methods which can potentially pollute the environment, whereas shrimp shell contain large amounts of chitin and chitosan and can be used as immune and growth stimulator in aquaculture. objectives: the purpose of present study was to investigate the effect of oral administration of chitosan extracted from litopenaeus...
