研究了斑节对虾(Penaeus monodon)饲料中添加不同剂量的芽孢杆菌制剂(Bacillus sp.,109 CFU/g)对饲料干物质、粗蛋白、脂肪、磷、氨基酸和脂肪酸的表观消化率的影响.饲料1(对照组)、饲料2、饲料3、饲料4、饲料5和饲料6中芽孢杆菌制剂的添加量分别为0、1.0 g/kg、2.0 g/kg、3.0 g/kg、4.0 g/kg和5.0 g/kg饲料.养殖实验在室外水泥池进行,每池养虾40尾,每组实验设3个重复.以Y2O3为指示剂,添加量为0.01%,连续收集粪便20 d.6个实验组中,对饲料中各营养素的表观消化率分别为:干物质,74.35%～77.89%;粗蛋白,87.29%～89.01%;脂肪,86.46%～89.67%;磷,35.83%～44.17%;必需氨基酸,93.01%～94.04%;非必需氨基酸,91.05%～92.42%;饱和脂肪酸,86.88%～89.95%;单不饱和脂肪酸,90.39%～93.40%;多不饱和脂肪酸 高不饱和脂肪酸,87.97%～91.32%.对照组的脂肪表观消化率高于饲料2、饲料5和饲料6组,但低于饲料3和饲料4组.饲料3组的脂肪和部分脂肪酸的表观消化率最高.对照组的干物质、粗蛋白、氨基酸和磷的表观消化率最低,芽孢杆菌添加量在1.0～3.0 g/kg饲料范围内,随着芽孢杆菌添加量的增加,表观消化率逐渐上升,饲料4组的表观消化率最高,与其他组相比差异显著(P＜0.05),添加量超过3.0 g/kg的各组,随着芽孢杆菌添加量的增加,表观消化率又逐渐下降.实验结果表明,在饲料中添加适量的芽孢杆菌可以显著的提高干物质、粗蛋白、氨基酸和磷的表观消化率.     

The growth and apparent digestibility of white shrimp,Litopenaeus vannamei,are increased with the probiotic,Bacillus subtilis

The aims of this study were to evaluate the probiotic efficiency of Bacillus subtilis E20 (10⁹ colony‐forming units kg^?1) on the growth and apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), amino acids (AAs), and crude lipids (CLs) of the white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. A control diet without probiotic supplementation was used. Shrimp exhibited significant increases in growth performance and feed utilization after being fed the test diet for 56 days. Shrimp were then used to evaluate the apparent nutrient digestibility using 0.1% Cr₂O₃ in the diet as an indicator. During the trial, faeces was collected from triplicate groups of shrimp twice daily. ADCs of CP and DM in the test diet significantly increased compared to those of the control diet. Although the ADCs of CLs did not significantly differ between the control and probiotic group, the ADC of CLs was higher in the probiotic group than in the control group. In addition, ADCs of most AAs in the test diet were significantly higher compared to those of the control diet. These results suggest that shrimp in the test group had significantly better growth performance, which was due to increases in nutrient digestibility and absorption.

Apparent digestibility of selected feed ingredients for white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei,Boone

Apparent digestibility coefficients of dry matter (DM), crude protein, crude lipid, gross energy, phosphorus and amino acids in Peruvian fish meal (FM), fermented soybean meal, extruded soybean meal, soybean meal, peanut meal, wheat gluten meal, corn gluten meal, shrimp byproduct meal, meat and bone meal (MBM), poultry meat meal and plasma protein meal (PPM) were determined for white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). A reference diet (RF) and test diets (consisting of 70% RF diet and 30% of the feedstuff) were used with 0.5% chromic oxide as an external indicator. A total of 1440 shrimp (initial mean body weight 1.05 ± 0.01 g) were randomly stocked into thirty‐six 500‐L fibreglass tanks with 40 shrimp per tank and three tanks per diet. Faeces were collected from triplicate groups of shrimp by a faecal collection vessel attached to the shrimp‐rearing tank. The shrimp were fed to apparent satiation four times a day and the feeding experiment lasted for 6 weeks. Statistics indicate that apparent DM digestibilities for white shrimp (L. vannamei) were the highest for FM, ranged 52.83–71.23% for other animal products and 69.98–77.10% for plant products. The protein and lipid from plant and animal sources were well digested by white shrimp. Apparent protein and lipid digestibility were in the range 87.89–93.18% and 91.57–95.28%, respectively, in plant products, and 75.00–92.34% and 83.72–92.79%, respectively, for animal products. The white shrimp demonstrated a high capacity to utilize phosphorus in the ingredients. The apparent phosphorus digestibility ranges of animal feedstuffs and plant feedstuffs were 58.90–71.61% and 75.77–82.30% respectively. Amino acid availability reflected protein digestibility, except that in MBM, for which the availability of some amino acid was lower, possibly due to protein damage during processing. Digestibility information could promote the use of ingredient substitution in least‐cost formulated diets for white shrimp.     

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) show high digestibility of lipid and fatty acids from marine Schizochytrium sp. and of protein and essential amino acids from freshwater Spirulina sp. feed ingredients

We determined apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of macronutrients, amino acids and fatty acids for freshwater (Spirulina, SPI; Chlorella, CHL) and marine (Schizochytrium, SCI) microalgal ingredients in Nile tilapia via four diets: reference (Ref containing fish and plant feedstuffs) and SPI, CHL and SCI (Ref/dried algal cells at 7:3). ADCs of crude protein were significantly higher in SPI than in CHL, comparing well with literature values for fishmeal and plant feedstuffs. ADCs of all essential amino acids were generally higher in SPI. Very high lysine and methionine ADCs in SPI and SCI were similar to or higher than reported value for plants. SCI had 5–10 times richest lipid and n?3 PUFA contents, significantly highest ADCs for lipid, n?3 and n?6 PUFA; and highest content and digestibility of DHA (undetected in other microalgae). Crude fibre ADCs were significantly higher in Ref and SPI than in SCI and CHL. CHL's highest fibre content (79 g kg^?1) possibly depressed its ADCs of five essential amino acids and n?3 PUFA. Results suggest that SPI is a good alternative protein and SCI a quality fish oil substitute or long‐chain PUFA supplement for tilapia diets.     

Digestibility of energy,lipids and fatty acids of vegetable oils and poultry fat by pacu Piaractus mesopotamicus (Holmberg 1887)

Evaluation of vegetable oils and poultry fat digestibility is the first step to elicit their use in aquafeeds. This work aimed at determining apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of energy, lipids and fatty acids of oil sources for pacu, a widely farmed neotropical Characin. A semipurified, omnivorous fish diet (344.2 g kg^?1 crude protein; 18.16 MJ kg^?1 gross energy) was used as reference diet. Test diets were obtained by adding 2 g kg^?1 chromium III oxide and replacing 15 g kg^?1 reference diet with fish, soybean, colza, corn and flaxseed oils and poultry fat. Juvenile pacu (64 ± 10.8 g; 14.6 ± 1.1 cm) were fed to apparent satiety, four times a day, and then transferred to cylindrical–conical aquaria for collection of faeces by sedimentation (n = 3). Apparent digestibility coefficients of energy and lipids were high for all tested oils (P > 0.05); ADCs of saturated fatty acid (SFA) were lower than monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). Essential fatty acids (18:2n‐6 and 18:3n‐3) had high ADC (>93%), colza oil and poultry fat yielding the lowest ADC for 18:2n‐6 (P = 0.01) and 18:3n‐3 (P < 0.01), respectively. Corn oil, soybean oil and flaxseed oil were interesting sources of 18:2n‐6 and 18:3n‐3 dietary fatty acids for pacu.     

Apparent Digestibility Coefficients and Amino Acid Availability of Cricket Meal,Gryllus bimaculatus,and Fishmeal in African Catfish,Clarias gariepinus,Diet

A study was conducted on African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, to examine the apparent digestibility coefficient (ADC) of protein, dry matter, lipid, and energy, and the apparent availability coefficient (AAC) of essential amino acid (EAA) for a cricket meal (CM) diet, Gryllus bimaculatus, and fishmeal (FM). Both diets consisted of 30% isonitrogenous levels with a 70:30 ratio of basal diet to test ingredient. Chromic oxide (0.5%) was added to the diet as an inert marker. The ADCs of crude protein (CP) in CM (81.21%), lipid (89.82%), gross energy (64.42%), and dry matter (73.97%) was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than the value of CP (78.22%), lipid (82.03%), gross energy (56.52%), and dry matter (62.26%) in FM. All EAAs were present in both diets. The AACs for both diets ranged from 0.906 to 0.961 and 0.812 to 0.938 for the CM and FM diets, respectively. The growth performance of fish fed with CM exhibited significantly higher (P < 0.05) weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and protein efficiency ratio compared with FM. Overall, the results suggest that CM could be included in the African catfish diet without affecting their nutrient and amino acid digestibility as well as growth performance.     

Apparent digestibility coefficients of feed ingredients and their prediction in diets for tilapia Oreochromis niloticus×Oreochromis aureus (Teleostei, Cichlidae)

Apparent digestibility of crude protein (CP), lipid, carbohydrate, energy and fatty acids was measured in various feed ingredients fed to hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus×Oreochromis aureus) including fish and poultry meals, corn gluten, soybean meal, rapeseed meal, sunflower seed meal, wheat, corn, sorghum, barley and wheat bran. Chromic oxide was used as a non‐absorbed marker. A diet compounded from a mixture of these ingredients was then used to examine the possibility of predicting the digestibility of formulated diets. In addition, the effect of pelleting or extrusion on digestibility of a compound diet was examined. Apparent digestibility of CP ranged from 75% to 97%, lipids from 72% to 90% and energy from 39% to 89% in the different ingredients. Apparent digestibility of carbohydrates was lower and ranged from 32% to 80%. Digestibility of fatty acids ranged from 75% to 90% with saturated fatty acids exhibiting digestibilities lower than unsaturated fatty acids. In a full‐fat soy diet containing 19% fat, digestibility of lipids did not decrease. There were no significant differences in digestibility between a diet that was either pelleted or extruded. Tests conducted using a compound diet indicated that ingredient digestibility was additive for protein, lipids carbohydrates and energy. Diets for the hybrid tilapia may thus be formulated on the basis of digestibility of individual ingredients, for the nutrients examined in this study.     

Apparent Digestibility Coefficients of Various Feed Ingredients for Grouper Epinephelus coioides

Apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) of dry matter, crude protein, lipid, gross energy, amino acids, and fatty acids in white fish meal, brown fish meal, soybean meal, peanut meal, and yeast were determined for grouper Epinephelus coioides. Apparent digestibility was determined using a reference diet with 0.5% chromic oxide indicator and test diets that contained 70% reference diet and 30% of the feed ingredient being evaluated. The fish, averaging 12.0 g, were held in 250-L tanks at a density of 30 fish per tank. Feces were collected from three replicate groups-of fish. Apparent dry matter digestibility of ingredients was 78.85 ± 2.43, 79.11 ± 0.61, 69.85 ± 3.60, 73.67 ± 2.30 and 57.70 ± 4.69% for white fish meal, brown fish meal, soybean meal, peanut meal, and yeast, respectively. Apparent gross energy digestibility of ingredients was 93.27 ± 2.90, 89.48 ± 1.78, 70.52 ± 4.01, 73.13 ± 2.41 and 51.67 ± 2.01% for white fish meal, brown fish meal, soybean meal, peanut meal, and yeast, respectively. Apparent protein digestibility of ingredients was 89.82 ± 1.24, 87.34 ± 1.25, 83.97 ± 1.92, 80.79 ± 1.95, and 61.14 ± 0.54% for white fish meal, brown fish meal, soybean meal, peanut meal, and yeast, respectively. White fish meal and brown fish meal showed higher protein digestibility among ingredients tested (P ± 0.01). Lipid digestibility of ingredients was high (90.66-94.48%) and not significantly different except for yeast. Amino acid availability values for test ingredients were similar to values of protein digestibility. Amino acid availability values of white fish meal and brown fish meal were higher than other ingredients. Fatty acid availability values for test ingredients were similar to values of lipid digestibility. In general, the digestibility of most fatty acids was over 80% in all ingredients, except for 14:0 in yeast and 18:0 in peanut meal, PUFA + HUFA > MUFA > SFA. Longer-chain saturated fatty acids were less digestibility, except for 14:0, with digestibilities diminishing as fatty acid chain length increased. Apparent digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, lipid, gross energy, amino acids, and fatty acids in yeast was the lowest among the ingredients.     

Apparent digestibility coefficients of selected feed ingredients for juvenile snakehead,Ophiocephalus argus

Apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of dry matter, crude protein, crude lipid, gross energy, phosphorus and amino acids in Peruvian fish meal, poultry by‐product meal, meat and bone meal, spray‐dried blood meal, hydrolysed feather meal, corn gluten meal, soybean meal, peanut meal, cottonseed meal and rapeseed meal were determined for juvenile snakehead (Ophiocephalus argus) with initial mean body weight of 78.1 g. A reference diet and test diets that consisted of a 70 : 30 mixture of the reference diet to test ingredient were used with 5 g kg^?1 Cr₂O₃ as an external indicator. Fish meal, poultry by‐product meal and corn gluten meal had higher ADCs of dry matter, crude protein, and gross energy among ingredients tested. Dry matter ADCs ranged 61.9–81.5% for animal ingredients and corn gluten meal and ranged 52.2–68.0% for soybean meal, peanut meal, cottonseed meal and rapeseed meal. Energy ADCs of ingredients followed similar trends to differences in dry matter digestibility. Protein ADCs of animal and plant ingredients ranged 73.6–92.8% and 75.3–85.6%, respectively. Amino acid ADCs generally reflected protein digestibility. Lipid ADCs were relatively high for the ingredients tested. Phosphorus ADCs of animal and plant ingredients ranged 39.5–65.2% and 38.7–57.1%, respectively.
