饲料牛磺酸对尼罗罗非鱼生长、体成分及组织游离氨基酸含量的影响

本文探讨了饲料牛磺酸水平对尼罗罗非鱼幼鱼生长性能、体成分及游离氨基酸含量的影响。选用体重为5.89±0.03g的罗非鱼300尾,随机分为5个处理组,每个处理3个重复,每个重复20尾。在基础饲料中分别添加0、0.4%、0.8%、1.2%、1.6%的牛磺酸,配制成5种试验料,分别饲喂不同处理组的罗非鱼,饲养周期为56d。结果表明： 0.8%牛磺酸组罗非鱼增重率最高,且显著高于0%和1.6%组(P<0.05);饲料牛磺酸水平(0.4%-1.2%)显著提高了罗非鱼摄食率、肝脏指数和内脏指数,显著降低了饲料系数(P<0.05)。随着饲料牛磺酸水平的提高,鱼体粗蛋白质和粗脂肪含量随之升高,鱼体水分和粗灰分含量随之降低(P<0.05);以增重率为指标,通过二次曲线回归分析得出罗非鱼饲料牛磺酸最适需要量为0.75%。罗非鱼血清、肝脏、肌肉和全鱼中牛磺酸含量与饲料牛磺酸含量存在正相关关系,且牛磺酸添加组血清、肝脏、肌肉和全鱼牛磺酸含量显著高于对照组相(P<0.05)。罗非鱼肝脏和肌肉中游离氨基酸含量随饲料牛磺酸含量的增加均呈逐渐下降的趋势,且牛磺酸添加组肝脏和肌肉中游离氨基酸含量显著低于对照组(P<0.05)。     

低鱼粉饲料中添加牛磺酸对黄鳝生长、消化率及肠道酶活性的影响

该研究对体质量为(25.03±0.02) g的健康黄鳝(Monopterus albus)进行了10周的养殖实验,探究了低鱼粉饲料中添加牛磺酸对黄鳝生长、消化率及肠道酶活性的影响。实验设置了高鱼粉组(42%, FM)、低鱼粉组(22%,T_0)以及在低鱼粉饲料中分别添加0.2%(T_(0.2))和0.5%(T_(0.5))牛磺酸的4个处理组,每组5个重复。结果显示,与FM组相比,T_0组黄鳝的增重率、蛋白质效率、干物质消化率和蛋白质消化率显著下降(P0.05),饲料系数显著上升(P0.05)。添加适量牛磺酸可显著提高黄鳝的增重率、蛋白质效率和干物质消化率,降低饲料系数(P0.05),但T_(0.5)组黄鳝的增重率、蛋白质效率和饲料系数与T_0组相比无显著性差异(P0.05)。此外,T_0组肠道肌酸激酶(CK)、钠钾ATP酶(Na~+-K~+-ATPase)、碱性磷酸酶(AKP)、胰蛋白酶(TRYP)和脂肪酶活性显著低于FM组(P0.05),T_(0.2)组的上述肠道酶活性均显著升高(P0.05),T_(0.5)组肠道Na~+-K~+-ATPase、AKP、TRYP和脂肪酶(LPS)活性虽高于T_0组,但无显著性差异(P0.05)。综上,低鱼粉饲料中添加0.2%牛磺酸可提高黄鳝的生长,改善肠道消化吸收功能,但添加过量牛磺酸(0.5%)效果不明显。

dl‐methionine enrichment in diets fed to Atlantic salmon increases apparent digestibility

In the current study, we tested whether the addition of a small amount of crystalline dl ‐methionine to a fishmeal‐based diet would affect general sulphur metabolism and apparent digestibility in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Triplicate tanks of salmon with mean BW of half a kilo were fed a control diet or the control diet supplemented with 0.2 wt%dl ‐methionine (+17% methionine relative to control diet) for a period of 3 months. Feed intake and thus nutrient intake did not differ significantly between treatments. Fish fed the diet supplemented with dl ‐methionine had 18% higher mean intake of methionine. The apparent energy digestibility was significantly improved in the salmon fed the methionine‐enriched diet as was the methionine digestibility. Salmon fed the methionine‐supplemented diet had about 32% higher plasma‐free methionine concentration and 25% more total homocysteine 5 h post prandial. No difference was observed in hepatic‐free methionine, but hepatic cystathionine (～62%) and taurine (～20%) were significantly higher in fish fed the methionine‐enriched diet due to a higher transsulphuration. In the liver, taurine might be conjugated to bile acids (BAs), and conjugation of BAs increases their solubility and enhances their biliary secretion affecting the digestibility. Both faecal and plasma BA concentrations were elevated in fish fed the methionine‐enriched diet, although the differences did not reach statistical significance. Taken together, our data show that feeding salmon a fishmeal‐based diet supplemented with a small amount of crystalline dl ‐methionine increased the apparent energy digestibility, possibly through an increased liver transsulphuration and taurine production, which might enhance BA conjugation and biliary secretion.     

Effect of taurine supplementation on the metabolism and body lipid‐to‐protein ratio in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

Previously, we reported that methionine intake determined the taurine concentration in the liver of on‐growing Atlantic salmon fed plant protein diets. Further, the methionine intake and/or the increased taurine concentration following increased methionine intake affected the liver lipid metabolism. The following study therefore aimed to test whether taurine affected the growth or the type of growth when added in high plant protein diets naturally low in taurine but equal and adequate in dietary methionine. Juvenile Atlantic salmon [initial body weight (BW) of 2 g] were fed plant protein diets (16.5% fishmeal), which were supplemented with taurine or not for a period of 56 days. As a control for growth and normal metabolism, a fishmeal‐based commercial diet (68% fishmeal) was used. Supplementation with taurine to high plant protein diets had a slightly negative effect on weight gain, but the final body weight was not different. Interestingly, the pool of free amino acids in the liver and muscle was significantly higher in fish fed the supplemented diet as compared with fish fed the plant protein diet without taurine supplementation. Liver polyamine concentration was higher in fish fed the supplemented diet than in fish fed the similar diet without supplementation. Additionally, juvenile salmon fed the plant‐based diet supplemented with taurine had a lower body lipid‐to‐protein ratio due to a reduced whole‐body lipid content, while the whole‐body protein content was similar between treatments. Our study thus indicates that the addition of a low concentration of taurine to high plant protein diets interacts with lipid metabolism and storage, concomitantly affecting the general metabolism as the concentrations of the free amino acids and polyamines in the liver were significantly higher. The possible reasons for these changes are discussed.     

Feeding fermented soybean meal diet supplemented with taurine to yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata affects growth performance and lipid digestion

Feeding experiment was conducted to determine whether fermentation and taurine supplementation of soybean meal (SBM) fed to yellowtail improve growth performance and lipid digestion. Six diets were formulated and designated as SBM, SBM supplemented with taurine (SBM + T), SBM fermented by Bacillus spp. (FSBM1), SBM fermented by Lactobacillus spp. (FSBM2), FSBM2 supplemented with taurine (FSBM2 + T), and fish meal (FM). Yellowtail fingerlings with an initial body weight of 42 g were stocked in 200‐L tanks. The fish were fed, each diet was fed twice daily in two separate tanks for 8 weeks. Results showed that lipid digestibility of the SBM diet was significantly lower than that of the FM diet, but SBM diet lipid digestibility was improved by taurine supplementation and fermentation. Lipase activity in anterior intestinal digesta, lipid contents in liver and muscle, and bile acid concentrations in gallbladder and anterior intestinal digesta were significantly lower in fish fed SBM diet than in fish fed FM diet; these parameters were not significantly different between fish fed SBM + T, FSBM2, FSBM2 + T diets and FM diet. Although taurine supplementation or fermentation improved lipid digestibility compared with FM diet, growth parameters were only improved in the fish fed FSBM2 + T diet, indicating that apart from a lack of taurine, SBM contains other factors responsible for inferior growth of yellowtail. These factors can be partially eliminated by Lactobacillus spp. fermentation.     

牛磺酸对鲤鱼诱食活性的初步研究

用牛磺酸作为诱食剂,以0.2%、0.4%、0.6%、0.8%的剂量将牛磺酸添加到基础饵料中,以基础饵料为对照,以鲤鱼为对象进行诱食活性试验,用one-way ANOVA检验统计分析,结果表明:牛磺酸对鲤鱼有明显的诱食作用,其中0.4%组诱食效果最佳,极显著地高于对照组(P<0.01)。     

The effect of dietary taurine on growth performance and liver histopathology in Persian sturgeon,Acipenser persicus (Borodin, 1897) fed plant‐based diet

This experiment was conducted to illustrate the effect of dietary taurine levels on Persian sturgeon, Acipenser persicus (mean weight of ~35 g) fed plant‐based diet. A basal diet containing low level of fishmeal (19%) was formulated containing 0.05% endogenous taurine (control diet). To this diet were added five levels of exogenous taurine: 0.25 (0.25T), 0.5 (0.5T), 0.8 (0.8T), 1.2 (1.2T) and 1.6% (1.6T). These diets were fed to the experimental fish for 42 days. Results showed that growth performance decreased and food conversion ratio increased as dietary taurine increased, although no significant difference was observed between the control and 0.25T treatments. Increased dietary taurine led to increased carcass moisture and decreased carcass lipid percentages. Feed intake was significantly and negatively correlated with dietary taurine. Carcass taurine content significantly increased with dietary taurine elevation up to 1.2% and then decreased. Hepatic taurine content showed a significant increase in 0.25T treatment and then decreased along with dietary taurine elevation and reached the control values at 1.6% taurine level. Dietary taurine elevation led to more hepatic damages compared to the control. In conclusion, although within the range reported for other studied fish, the tested taurine levels in this study might be supra‐optimal causing adverse effects in Persian sturgeon and further study with lower taurine levels is encouraged.     

The influence of environmental temperature on the apparent nutrient and fatty acid digestibility in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) fed finishing diets containing different blends of fish oil, rapeseed oil and palm oil

A 12‐week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the interactive effects between water temperature and diets supplemented with different blends of fish oil, rapeseed oil and crude palm oil (CPO) on the apparent nutrient and fatty acid digestibility in Atlantic salmon. Two isolipidic extruded diets with added fish oil fixed at 50% and CPO supplemented at 10% or 25% of total added oil, at the expense of rapeseed oil, were formulated and fed to groups of Atlantic salmon (about 3.4 kg) maintained in floating cages. There were no significant effects (P>0.05) of diet on growth, feed utilization efficiency, muscle total lipid or pigment concentrations. Fatty acid compositions of muscle and liver lipids were mostly not significantly different in salmon fed the two experimental diets but showed elevated concentrations of 18:1n‐9 and 18:2n‐6 compared with initial values. Decreasing water temperatures (11–6°C) did not significantly affect protein, lipid or energy apparent digestibilities of the diets with different oil blends. However, dry matter digestibility decreased significantly in fish fed the diet with CPO at 25% of added oil. Increasing dietary CPO levels and decreasing water temperature significantly reduced the apparent digestibility (AD) of saturated fatty acids. The AD of the saturates decreased with increasing chain length within each temperature regimen irrespective of CPO level fed to the fish. The AD of monoenes and polyunsaturated fatty acids was not affected by dietary CPO levels or water temperature. No significant interaction between diet and water temperature effects was detected on the AD of all nutrients and fatty acids. The results of this study showed that the inclusion of CPO up to about 10% (wt/wt) in Atlantic salmon feeds resulted in negligible differences in nutrient and fatty acid digestibility that did not affect growth performance of fish at the range of water temperatures generally encountered in the grow‐out phase.     

黄颡鱼幼鱼对蛋白质和脂肪的需要量

在水温23±5℃下,将平均体质量10．32g的黄颡鱼（Pelteobagrus fulvidraco）放养在27个60cm×60cm×120cm的微流水网箱中,饲喂3个蛋白质水平（32．0％、40．0％、48．0％）,每个蛋白质水平设3个脂肪水平（3．0％、10．0％和17．0％）的饲料,饲养100d。结果表明：在3．0％脂肪水平下,黄颡鱼摄食含40．0％蛋白质的饲料时,平均末体质量、特定生长率和蛋白质效率显著提高,饲料系数降低（P〈0．05）。在10．0％脂肪水平下,黄颡鱼摄食含48．0％蛋白质饲料时,饲料系数显著降低（P〈0．05）,摄食含40．0％的蛋白质饲料次之。黄颡鱼摄食含48．0％蛋白质与3．0％脂肪饲料组和40．0％蛋白质与10．0％脂肪组的干物质消化率最高（P〈0．01）;蛋白质消化率在48．0％蛋白质与3．0％脂肪达到最高（P〈0．01）,脂肪消化率均在40．0％蛋白质与10．0％脂肪达到最高（P〈0．01）。实验表明,黄颡鱼幼鱼较为适宜的蛋白质和脂肪需要量分别为40．0％和10．0％。     

Taurine Supplementation of All-plant Protein Diets for Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Abstract.— Taurine has been demonstrated to be conditionally indispensable for several carnivorous fish species. Current trends in trout production include decreasing levels of fish-meal content in feeds, along with faster growing strains of fish. Taurine may be a limiting nutrient in support of elevated planes of growth for rainbow trout. A 9-wk feeding trial was conducted using a factorial treatment design with protein source (fish meal or plant) and taurine supplementation (four levels) as the main effects. The fish-meal diet series included 23% herring meal and contained 1.76% total sulfur amino acids (TSAA). The plant diet series did not contain any animal proteins and substituted protein from soy protein concentrate in place of the herring-meal protein and contained 1.5% TSAA. Taurine was supplemented at 0, 5, 10, and 15 g/kg dry diet to each of the diets in the plant series and the fish-meal series of diets. All diets were formulated to contain 43.8% crude protein and 20% lipid with an estimated physiological fuel value of 4.2 kcal/g. Fifteen fish were stocked in each of 24 tanks with a mean initial weight of approximately 26.8 g per fish. The unsupplemented fish-meal diet contained 2 g/kg taurine, and the unsupplemented plant diet had taurine levels below the detection limit of 0.1 g/kg diet. Taurine supplementation improved growth, feed conversion ratios, protein retention efficiencies, and energy retention efficiencies of fish fed the plant protein diets. No effects of taurine supplementation were observed for these response factors in fish fed the fish-meal series diets. This study demonstrates that taurine supplementation may be necessary for rainbow trout fed plant-protein-based feeds.     

Optimal dietary taurine level for growth of juvenile Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus

The requirement for taurine in juvenile Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus was determined by feeding diets containing various levels of taurine and cystine. Test diets supplemented with 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% of taurine or with 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% of L -cystine were prepared. The basal diet contained 55% protein from white fish meal. These diets were fed to juvenile Japanese flounder with an initial mean bodyweight of 0.9 g (total length (TL) 48 mm) for 5 weeks. Approximately 1.4% taurine content in the diet was required for optimum growth of juvenile flounder. A positive linear relationship was noted between the content of taurine accumulated in the muscle, liver and brain and the level of taurine in the diet. However, there was no increased taurine content in tissues of fish fed the cystine-supplemented diet. In contrast, the fish fed control and cystine-supplemented diets showed higher contents of cystathionine in the tissues. The concentration of cystathionine in tissues rapidly decreased with an increase of taurine in the diet. It was also observed that for each of the dietary groups, a trace amount of taurine was excreted. These results suggest that the taurine content in the diet affects the sulfur amino acid metabolism of juvenile Japanese flounder, and indicate that juvenile flounder are unable to biosynthesize taurine from cystine.     

Partial substitution of fish meal and full-fat soya bean meal with wheat gluten and influence of lysine supplementation in diets for rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum)

A 65-day study was undertaken to evaluate the utilization of lysine-supplemented wheat gluten meal as a protein source for rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum). The performance of the trout fed wheat gluten was compared to that of trout where protein was principally supplied using fish meal and full-fat soyabean meal. Six isonitrogenous diets (approximately 45% crude protein) were formulated. Thus, the reference diet (FS) was based on fish meal and full-fat soya bean meal while a further five diets were formulated with a mixture of wheat gluten and wheat middlings used to isonitrogenously replace approximately 75% and 57% of the full-fat soya and fish meal respectively. Crystalline l -lysine representing 0.00%, 0.29%, 0.58%, 0.87% and 1.16% of the complete diet was then added to the wheat-gluten-based diets. Optimal performance in terms of weight gain and apparent net protein utilization was achieved by the fish fed a wheat-gluten-based diet supplemented with lysine (0.58%) yielding a digestible lysine level of 1.9% of the complete feed. Within the range of supplements provided, lysine digestibility was high. However, at the highest levels of supplemental lysine the relationship between uptake and supplement level was not linear. Additionally, arginine digestibility was not affected by the level of lysine supplementation. However, amongst the wheat-gluten-based diets, optimal performance was associated with a lysine: arginine ratio of 1.1: 1. Despite a lysine: arginine ratio of approximately 1.1: 1, the overall performance of the fish fed the fish-meal-soya-based reference diet was poorer than expected. The results are discussed with respect to optimal patterns of gross and digestible amino acids, lysine-arginine antagonism and the possible relationship between antinutritional factors and the poor performance of the fish fed the fish-meal-soya-based reference diet.
