Effect of protein hydrolysate from Antarctic krill meat on the state of water and denaturation by dehydration of lizard fish myofibrils

ABSTRACT: To utilize Antarctic krill as functional food, protein hydrolysates were prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis. Their effects on the state of water in myofibrils of lizard fish and dehydration-induced denaturation were compared with those from two species of shrimp, glucose, and sodium glutamate. Peptides are major components in hydrolysates, occupying approximately 85–93% of the total materials. The Antarctic krill protein hydrolysates stabilized the bonding of water molecules, leading to suppressed denaturation of myofibrils during the dehydration process. Similar effects were observed for shrimp protein hydrolysates. The effect of the hydrolysate was less than that by glucose and sodium glutamate.     

Cryoprotective effects of shrimp head protein hydrolysate on gel forming ability and protein denaturation of lizardfish surimi during frozen storage

ABSTRACT:   The effects of shrimp head protein hydrolysate (SHPH) from three species of shrimp (northern pink shrimp [ Pandalus eous ], endeavour shrimp [ Metapenaeus endeavouri ], black tiger shrimp [ Penaeus monodon ]) on gel forming ability and protein denaturation of lizardfish surimi during frozen storage at −25°C were evaluated. The quality of lizardfish surimi with 5% (dried matter) of any of the three SHPH or sodium glutamate (Na-Glu) was examined in terms of gel strength, whiteness, Ca-ATPase activity and the amount of unfrozen water, comparing with those of surimi without additive as the control. The residual Ca-ATPase activity and gel strength of surimi with SHPH were higher than those of the control throughout 180 days of frozen storage, regardless of shrimp species. The highest effect was found in surimi with Na-Glu. The gel strength and Ca-ATPase activity found a high positive correlation. The addition of SHPH to surimi also increased the amount of unfrozen water by approximately 1.29–1.36 fold higher than the control, however kamaboko gels of the control was significantly whiter. From these results, freeze-induced denaturation of lizardfish muscle protein could be lessened by the addition of SHPH, resulting in a high gel strength and Ca-ATPase activity.     

鱼排酶解物对鳙鱼鱼糜冻藏过程中蛋白质变性的影响

利用木瓜蛋白酶、低温碱性酶、风味蛋白酶酶解红鱼（Sciaerlops ocellatus）鱼排，分别获得木瓜蛋白酶酶解物（PPH）、低温碱性酶酶解物（LPH）和风味蛋白酶酶解物（FPH）。对3种酶解物化学成分及氨基酸组成进行分析，结果显示，3种酶解物中总氨基酸含量都在70％以上，总氮含量为82．12％～84．61％。酶解物分别以5％（质量比）量加入鳙鱼（Aristichthys nobilis）鱼糜中，冻藏于-20℃。测定冻藏过程中肌原纤维蛋白质盐溶性和Ca^2＋-ATPase活性的变化，同时测量鱼糜凝胶弹性的变化，并对冻藏样品进行扫描电镜观察，抗冻效果同商业抗冻剂（4％蔗糖、4％山梨醇、0．3％多聚磷酸盐混合剂）进行比较。结果表明，各酶解物能够在一定程度上抑制鱼糜蛋白质的冷冻变性，延缓肌原纤维蛋白质盐溶性和Ca^2＋-ATPase活性的下降，鱼糜凝胶质量下降减少，其中木瓜蛋白酶酶解物具有最好的效果。     

Inclusion of two differently pH‐autolysis hydrolysates of squid coproduct in diets of shrimp cultured under indoor and outdoor conditions

Squid hydrolysates obtained by autolysis without addition of lactic acid at two different pH (5 and 7) and included at 25 and 50 g kg^?1 in a commercial shrimp feed were evaluated. Shrimp fed on such diets were cultured under indoor and outdoor conditions. Diets containing both hydrolysates and included at both levels caused a higher feed consumption by shrimp. In general, shrimp fed on both hydrolysates, but particularly on that prepared at pH 7, exhibited similar or better production responses (survival, biomass, feed conversion ratio, specific growth rate) compared to those fed on diets without the inclusion of hydrolysates. Shrimp cultured outdoor showed a better growth performance compared to those cultured indoor. No significant differences were found regarding the proximate composition of shrimp of any treatment. Results suggest that the free amino acids provided by squid hydrolysates contributed to improve the feed consumption and growth performance of shrimp cultured under both indoor and outdoor conditions.

Effect of trehalose on the gel-forming ability,state of water and myofibril denaturation of horse mackerel <Emphasis Type="Italic">Trachurus japonicus</Emphasis> surimi during frozen storage

The cryoprotective effects of trehalose on fish myofibrillar protein were compared with those of sucrose, glucose and sorbitol. The frozen surimi with trehalose exhibited significantly higher Ca²⁺-ATPase activity through-out the storage periods, resulting in higher gel-forming ability than that of without trehalose. The amount of unfrozen water was significantly increased in the surimi upon addition of trehalose at any concentrations tested. The findings suggest that trehalose constructed bound water molecules in protein structure, consequently suppressed freeze-induced denaturation of protein and maintained gel-forming ability. An addition of 5.0% to 7.5% concentration of trehalose showed threshold behavior to increase the amount of unfrozen water and to prevent freeze-induced denaturation of protein. The effects of trehalose were almost similar to those of other sugars.     

Comparative study on thermal denaturation modes of myosin in walleye pollack and carp myofibrils as affected by salt concentration

ABSTRACT:   The effect of salt concentration on the thermal denaturation profile of myosin in walleye pollack and carp myofibrils was compared by studying the subfragment-1 (S-1) and rod denaturation rates upon heating. Species-specific denaturation mode observed at 0.1 M KCl was no longer detected when samples were heated above 0.5 M KCl, where S-1 and rod denaturation rates were identical to each other. As the heating of the chymotryptic digest of myofibril formed practically no rod aggregates, S-1 denaturation in a form of myosin was the rate limiting step for rod aggregate formation. As the aggregate formation by rod was remarkably suppressed by lowering the temperature, the free movement of myosin tail upon heating was suggested to play an important role in the rod aggregate formation in a high salt medium.

Effect of water exchange on effluent and sediment characteristics and on partial nitrogen budget in semi-intensive shrimp ponds in New Caledonia

An experiment was conducted in six earthen ponds with 20 shrimps m^?2Litopenaeus stylirostris (Stimpson) during the warm season in New Caledonia to study the dynamics of wastes in relation with water exchange rate (WER). The nitrogen budget was established, taking into account the different forms of nitrogen in the water, sediment, feed and shrimp. Data from a wide range of treatments applied in unreplicated ponds were treated using regression analysis to establish the relationship between WER and partial nitrogen budget, sediment characteristics and shrimp performance. To compare effluent quality between treatments during the season, data were analysed using the non‐parametric sign test. The water outflow was characterized by a decrease in the concentrations of N‐mineral forms (TAN, NO₂^?–NO₃^?), an increase in the concentration of organic soluble and sestonic organic forms (expressed in terms of particulate nitrogen, particulate organic carbon, chlorophyll a) compared with the water inflow. Increasing WER increased the amount of exported wastes and mainly in the organic forms and TAN can be considered as negligible. The nitrogen budget showed that 19–46% of nitrogen input (feed+water) was exported into the coastal environment. The results showed that the quality of the sediment decreased as WER decreased. The potential negative impact of the developing industry in New Caledonia on the costal environment could be partially reduced in a first step by decreasing WER. However, if applied in the farms, this practice should be linked to a close survey of the evolution of sediment quality.     

Effect of dietary protein levels on growth of Penaeus stylirostris juveniles

The shrimp Penaeus stylirostris is currently produced on a commercial scale in Tahiti and New Caledonia. Both super-intensive (80 animals m⁻²) and semi intensive (25 m⁻²) systems are promoted. Locally produced commercial feed contains 380–400 g kg⁻¹ crude protein (CP) without special consideration for environmental impact. The need for a 'low pollution' diet implies reconsideration of the optimum dietary protein level for this species. Under experimental conditions, six isoenergetic practical diets ranging from 270 g kg⁻¹ to 440 g kg⁻¹ CP were formulated and fed to satiation for 30 days to juvenile P. stylirostris ; average growth rates were between 5.5 and 7.5 g per month with survival rates > 90%.
The lowest protein levels 270–310 g kg⁻¹, gave significantly ( P < 0.05) poorer growth (5.5 g per 30 days) than was observed with 330–430 g kg⁻¹ CP; 330 g kg⁻¹ CP may be recommended, and as it is lower than levels in diets used currently, there is a possibility of reducing nitrogenous waste. In addition to growth response, protein efficiency ratio, protein productive value and food conversion (feed/gain) all supported a recommended dietary protein level of 330 g kg⁻¹. Future prospects for practical feeds with even lower CP levels are considered.     

Effects of water exchange and abiotic factors on zooplankton and epibenthic fauna in shrimp ponds

Assemblages of zooplankton and epibenthic invertebrates were collected from a commercial Penaeus monodon (Fabricius) pond at fortnightly intervals over an entire grow‐out season. The pond inlet and outlet water were also sampled intensively over three 1‐week periods throughout the season. Before stocking the ponds with shrimp postlarvae, copepods dominated the zooplankton. Immediately after the ponds were stocked, there was a rapid decline in zooplankton numbers, particularly the dominant larger copepods, suggesting heavy predation by shrimp postlarvae. For the rest of the season, barnacle nauplii were the dominant zooplankton component in the pond. Pond water exchanges had little detectable influence on the composition or density of the zooplankton assemblage. Instead, the dominance of barnacle nauplii appeared to have been maintained by steady recruitment due to barnacle reproduction in the pond. While changes in the biomass of pond zooplankton were not correlated with physico‐chemical characteristics, changes in density were positively correlated with temperature, and negatively correlated with pH, dissolved oxygen and secchi disc readings. Epibenthic faunal density peaked at the end of the season, while the biomass peaked during the middle part of the season. Sergestids (Acetes sibogae Hansen) were the most abundant epibenthic taxa. No correlations were found between physico‐chemical parameters and epibenthic fauna biomass or density. Abundances of epibenthic fauna were not related to zooplankton densities, suggesting that trophic interactions between these assemblages is not important. No Acetes were captured in samples of outlet water, and only on a single occasion were large numbers captured in the inlet water; after this, there was a notable increase in the number of Acetes in the pond. This evidence, together with the lack of an increase in the size of Acetes during the season, suggests that water exchange is an important but unpredictable source of recruitment of epibenthic fauna into the pond. The results emphasize the benefits of ensuring that appropriate zooplankton assemblages have been introduced into the ponds, when they are filled, to support the shrimp immediately after stocking. This will depend on the initial inoculum and may be difficult to manipulate with water exchanges once established. Assemblages of epibenthic fauna appear more likely to change with exchanges and may need to be monitored across the season, particularly if their presence reduces production through adverse impacts such as competition with postlarvae, introduction of disease or deteriorated water quality.     

Utilization of corn gluten meal as a protein source in the diet of white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei

A 57‐day feeding trial was designed to assess the potential of corn gluten meal (CGM) as a plant protein source in practical feeds for white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. Five experimental diets providing 350 g kg^?1 protein and 110 g kg^?1 lipid were prepared, where 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of fishmeal (FM) protein was substituted by protein from CGM. The results showed that partial or complete replacement of FM with CGM did not affect survival. The growth of the shrimp declined as the levels of CGM increased, diets containing CGM showing a significantly lower final weight (3.2–5.9 g) and specific growth rates (1.7–2.7% per day) compared to those fed on the diet with 0 CGM (7.1 g and 3.0% per day). Feed conversion ratio was also significantly affected by CGM level. The inclusion of CGM resulted in a statistical decrease in the apparent digestibility (AD) of dry matter from 77.9% to 66.0% and in AD of protein from 80.5% to 52.0%, of feed. The AD of amino acids, with the exception of lysine, declined with the dietary incorporation of CGM. In summary, reduced palatability, low protein digestibility and a deficiency of lysine and methionine seem to be the major reasons behind a depressed growth in shrimp fed on CGM protein‐based diets.     

Nutrient utilization in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) fed increased levels of fish protein hydrolysate during a period of fast growth

The present work was designed to study whether changes in dietary protein quality by means of partial inclusion of fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) would alter fish growth, feed utilization, protein retention and metabolism and fish health in general. FPH was produced after hydrolysing whole minced herring using the industrial enzyme Alcalase®. The dietary protein source, low‐temperature‐dried (LT) fishmeal nitrogen was exchanged with FPH nitrogen at six levels of inclusion ranging from 0 to 300 g kg^?1. The experimental diets were fed to post‐smolt (1+) Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), with mean initial weight of 174 g for a period of 68 days. All diets were iso‐nitrogenous, iso‐energetic and contained the same amount of amino acids. Fish fed medium inclusion of FPH (180–240 g kg^?1) showed a tendency to have higher feed intake than fish fed lower and higher levels of FPH inclusions. Significant higher individual specific growth rates were present in fish fed diets with 180 and 240 g kg^?1 FPH when compared with those fed 300 g kg^?1. Feed conversion ratio increased significantly (R² = 0.61) and protein efficiency ratio decreased significantly (R² = 0.59) in fish fed increased levels of FPH. Further, apparent digestibility of crude protein and the amino acids arginine, lysine, methionine and phenylalanine increased significantly with increased dietary inclusion of FPH. Plasma free amino acids, ammonium and urea indicated that FPH amino acids was absorbed earlier and nonsynchronously, and may thus be more prone to be catabolized than in those fish fed the less solubilized protein. FPH inclusion did not have an impact on fish health, as evaluated by haematology and clinical parameters.     

The effects of variation in feed protein level on the culture of white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone) in low-water exchange experimental ponds

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of varying dietary protein level on pond water quality and production parameters of white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone). Experimental units consisted of nine 400‐m² earthen ponds with a low water exchange. Two treatments were tested: treatment HP consisted of shrimp fed a high‐protein diet (40%) during the whole grow‐out, and treatment LP consisted of the use of a low‐protein diet for the complete farming period. No differences on any of the water quality parameters were observed among treatments. Excellent survival (over 85%) and feed conversion ratios (around 1.6), and acceptable growth (over 12 g) and biomass (from 1721 to 1793 kg ha^?1) were recorded in all experimental ponds. No significant differences in any of the production parameters were found among treatment groups.
