this study aimed to evaluate the effects of prebiotic immunoster on growth and nutrition performance, survival rate and body composition and intestine bacterial flora of common carp (cyprinus carpio) fingerlings. 15 fish with initial weight 12 + 1 g distributed in 12 tanks and fed with different dietary levels of prebiotic (0.5, 1.5, 2.5 g/kg diet) for 60 days. at the end of experimental period...

in this study, the effect of garlic extract on the growth performances ( body weight increase (bwi), specific growth rate (sgr), condition factor (cf), final length (fl) and weight (fw)), feed indices (feed conversion rate (fcr), protein efficiency ratio (per), protein production ratio (ppr)) and body composition (protein, fat, moisture and ash) of mugil cephalus larvae were studied in four tre...

In present study the effect of feeding frequency on growth performance, feed efficiency and survival rate of juvenile of grass carp were investigated. Three groups of juvenile grass carp (average weight 4.31±0.1 g) designed with three feeding frequencies one meal a day (D1), two meals a day (D2) and four meals a day (D3) with two replicates of each treatment combination were applied in this exp...

artemia plays a major role in aquaculture as one of the most important live foods used in larval rearing. the aim of this study was to determine the optimum level of feeding in artemia urmiana with baker's yeast (saccharomyces cerevisiae). triplicate groups were fed with different levels of s. cerevisiae yeast 0.625 (control), 1.25 (t1), 2.50 (t2), 5.0 (t3) (mg yeast per 1000 nauplii) for ...

The present study was carried out to determine the ability of Acipenser baerii in utilizing carbohydrate (dextrin) as a non protein energy source substituted with animal oil. A total of 65 juveniles A. baerii with an initial mean weight of 689 ± 62 g were distributed in 15 fiber glass tanks. Five diets were formulated including 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% of dextrin and fed  for 8 weeks. Fish were wei...

INTRODUCTION The response to exogenous epinephrine (Ep) is difficult to predict given the multitude of factors involved such as broad pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic between-subject variabilities, which may be more pronounced in children. We investigated the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of Ep, co-administered with milrinone, in children who underwent open heart surgical repair for ...
