在基础饲料中分别添加100、200、300和400mg/kg DL-肉碱,饲喂平均体重134.3±12.1g的草鱼(Ctenopharyngodon idella)8W,以增重率、饲料系数(FCR),肌肉和肝胰脏中蛋白脂肪含量,肠道脂肪消化酶,肝胰脏脂蛋白脂酶(LPL)、肝脂酶(HL)和脂肪酸合成酶(FAS)等指标为判据,研究肉碱对草鱼生长性能、体成分和脂肪代谢酶活性的影响。结果表明,添加200mg/kg肉碱提高鱼体增重率5.70%(P < 0.05),降低FCR5.26%(P < 0.05);添加200～400mg/kg肉碱显著降低了肌肉和肝胰脏中的脂肪含量(P < 0.05);当肉碱添加量为300mg/kg时,肌肉蛋白含量最高;肉碱对肌肉水分和灰分、肝胰脏的蛋白含量无影响(P > 0.05);添加200、400mg/kg肉碱显著降低了血清胆固醇含量(P < 0.05);在脂肪代谢酶活性方面,200mg/kg肉碱组肠道脂肪消化酶和HL活性较对照组提高28.0%、38.6%(P < 0.05);添加400mg/kg肉碱提高肠道脂肪消化酶、HL及总脂酶活性41.41%、36.26%、10.66%(P < 0.05),降低FAS活性47.3%(P < 0.05)。综上所述,适量肉碱能改善草鱼生长性能、降低肌肉和肝胰脏脂肪含量及促进脂肪降解。建议草鱼饲料中肉碱添加量为200mg/kg。     

饲料脂肪水平对白甲鱼幼鱼形体指数、脂肪沉积和脂肪代谢酶活性的影响

实验评价了不同饲料脂肪水平对白甲鱼形体指数、脂肪沉积和脂肪代谢酶活性的影响。选用初始均质量(0.78±0.05)g的白甲鱼幼鱼900尾,随机分成6个实验组,每组3个重复,每个重复50尾实验鱼,分别饲喂添加0%(对照组)、2%、4%、6%、8%和10%的豆油,设计出脂肪水平为2.83%、4.52%、6.68%、9.14%、11.35%和14.07%的6种等氮(蛋白质含量为40%)等能(总能为16.30 MJ/kg)的实验饲料,养殖时间为60 d。结果表明,随着饲料脂肪水平的升高,白甲鱼幼鱼肥满度(CF)先升后降的变化趋势,且脂肪水平为9.14%时最大,为2.64%,但饲料脂肪水平为6.68%～14.07%时差异不显著(P>0.05),肝体指数(HSI)随饲料脂肪水平的升高呈上升趋势,脏体指数(VSI)则随饲料脂肪水平的升高呈略微上升趋势(P>0.05);白甲鱼幼鱼肌肉和肝脏中脂肪的含量易受饲料脂肪水平的影响。随着饲料脂肪水平的升高,肌肉和肝脏脂肪含量均呈上升趋势,饲料脂肪水平对饲料氮的沉积量无明显影响(P>0.05),能量沉积量则在饲料脂肪水平为14.07%时最高,氮和能量的沉积率随饲料脂肪水平的升高呈先升后降的变化趋势,且分别在饲料脂肪水平为11.35%和9.14%时达到最大,脂肪的沉积量随饲料脂肪水平的升高而升高,但脂肪沉积率则随饲料脂肪水平的升高而逐渐降低(P<0.05);白甲鱼幼鱼肠道脂肪酶活性呈先升后降的变化趋势,且在脂肪水平为9.14%时最大,为296.03 U/g,脂蛋白酯酶、肝脂酶和总酯酶活性则呈先升后降并逐渐趋于稳定,均在饲料脂肪水平为9.14%时达到最高;脂肪合成酶则呈逐渐降低的趋势(P<0.05)。说明适当的饲料脂肪水平可以提高饲料营养物质的利用率,但过高的脂肪水平(11.35%及以上)将使白甲鱼肝脏脂肪沉积增多,不利于鱼类健康生长。     

饲料脂肪水平对梭鱼脂肪沉积、脂肪代谢酶及抗氧化酶活性的影响

为了探讨饲料脂肪水平对梭鱼(Chelon haematocheilus)脂肪沉积、脂肪代谢酶及抗氧化酶活性的影响,选取360尾平均体质量为(5.4±0.2)g的梭鱼鱼种,随机分为6组,每组3个重复,每个重复20尾鱼,分别投喂脂肪含量为2.71%、5.79%、8.23%、11.85%、14.39%、16.91%的6组等氮饲料,饲养60 d,测定相应生物学指标及酶活。研究结果表明,随着脂肪水平的升高,肝体指数、脏体指数显著升高(P<0.05),肥满度8.23%组最大,其显著高于2.71%组(P<0.05);梭鱼全鱼、肝脂肪含量显著升高(P<0.05),14.39%组全鱼脂肪含量最高,16.91%组肝脂肪含量最高。饲料脂肪水平对肝脂肪代谢酶有显著影响(P<0.05),其中脂蛋白酯酶(LPL)、肝酯酶(HL)、总酯酶(GE)活性随着饲料脂肪水平的升高显著增高(P<0.05),16.91%组显著高于2.71%、5.79%、8.23%组(P<0.05);苹果酸脱氢酶活性呈显著下降趋势(P<0.05);血液中甘油三酯(TG)、总胆固醇(CHO)、游离脂肪酸(EFA)有升高趋势,但各组差异不显著(P>0.05);脂肪水平16.91%组高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL)含量最高,显著高于脂肪水平2.71%的组(P<0.05);肝胰脏超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性随着饲料脂肪水平的升高呈先上升后下降的趋势,8.23%组活性最高,丙二醛(MDA)含量16.91%组显著高于其他5组(P<0.05)。结果显示,肝是梭鱼脂肪沉积的主要场所,肝脂肪沉积比肌肉更敏感,高脂肪饲料还使脂肪分解酶的活性增强,血脂含量增加;适宜的饲料脂肪水平可提高梭鱼的抗氧化能力,脂肪水平过高则会导致抗氧化能力下降。     

不同种类淀粉对草鱼生长、肠系膜脂肪沉积和鱼体组成的影响

将试验草鱼随机分配在 12个水族箱中 ,每箱放鱼 30尾 ,分别以玉米淀粉、小麦淀粉、水稻淀粉为糖源配制 3种试验饲料 ,饲养初始体重为 (8.49± 0 .0 4)g的草鱼 80d ,观察不同种类淀粉饲料对草鱼生长、肠系膜脂肪沉积和鱼体组成的影响。每种饲料设 3个平行组 ,日投喂率按鱼体重的 3%计算。试验结果显示 :尽管草鱼对糖的表观消化率以小麦淀粉组最高 ,但摄食小麦淀粉饲料的草鱼与摄食玉米淀粉和水稻淀粉饲料的草鱼在生长上并无显著性差异。然而小麦淀粉组和玉米淀粉组的内脏比、肝胰脏脂肪含量、血浆甘油三酯水平以及肠系膜脂肪占鱼体的百分比显著高于水稻淀粉组 (P <0 .0 5 )。鱼体营养成份组成除了水稻淀粉组全鱼脂肪含量相对低于玉米淀粉组和小麦淀粉组之外 ,其它成份没有太大的差异。     

氯化胆碱对尼罗罗非鱼生长影响的对比试验

<正> 胆碱(choline)是动物营养的必要成份,作为甲基的供体产生乙酰胆碱,在生理上起着各种重要的作用.1985年我们分别在室内外进行氯化胆碱对尼罗罗非鱼生长影响的对比试验。试验是以生长比速、饲料系数、脂肪蓄积率及蛋白质利用率为评定指标。三次试验结果表明,对照组比胆碱组稍好,但两者差异不显著(p>0.05)。可以认为在本试验条件下,饲料中胆碱含量已满足尼罗罗非鱼生理上的需要,没有添加氯化胆碱的必要。     

饲料中添加氯化胆碱对拉萨裸裂尻鱼生长性能的影响

拉萨裸裂尻鱼(Schizopygopsis younghusbandi),又叫杨氏裸裂尻鱼、土鱼,隶属于鲤形目(Cypriniformes),鲤科(Cyprinidae),裂腹鱼亚科(Schizothoracinae),裸裂尻鱼属(Schizopygopsis),自然分布于雅鲁藏布江中上游干支流水体中,为我国特有的高原性鱼类,也是西藏主要经济鱼类之一,但由于其生长慢、性成熟晚、繁殖力低等特点,资源一但遭到破坏.     

饲料脂肪水平对许氏平鲉脂肪沉积、血液生化指标及脂肪代谢酶活性的影响

以鱼油为脂肪源,分别配制脂肪水平为3.7%、6.8%、9.6%、13.1%、15.6%的5种实验饲料,对平均初始体质量为(7.13±0.03)g的许氏平鲉进行为期60 d的饲养实验,探讨饲料脂肪水平对许氏平鲉形体指数、脂肪沉积、血液生化指标与脂肪代谢酶活性的影响。结果表明:肝体指数、脏体指数随着饲料脂肪水平的升高显著提高(P0.05),脂肪水平对肥满度没有显著影响(P0.05);许氏平鲉鱼体脂肪沉积随饲料脂肪水平的增加显著提高(P0.05),15.6%全鱼、肌肉、肝脏脂肪含量最高,显著高于3.7%、6.8%组(P0.05)。随着脂肪添加量的增加,许氏平鲉肝脏葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶(G6PDH)和苹果酸脱氢酶(MHD)活性显著降低(P0.05),15.6%与13.1%组G6PDH、MHD活性显著低于3.7%和6.8%组(P0.05);肝酯酶(HL)和脂蛋白酯酶(LPL)活性显著升高(P0.05),15.6%与13.1%组HL和LPL活性显著高于3.7%和6.8%组(P0.05)。血液甘油三酯(TG)和总胆固醇(CHO)含量随着饲料脂肪水平增加有下降的趋势,15.6%组的TG和CHO含量显著低于3.7%和6.8%组(P0.05);血液中高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDLC)、谷草转氨酶(AST)、谷丙转氨酶(ALT)与碱性磷酸酶(ALP)活性呈上升趋势(P0.05),15.6%组最高;低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDLC)呈先上升后下降的趋势(P0.05)。研究表明,饲料脂肪水平对许氏平鲉形体指数、脂肪沉积、血液生化指标及脂肪代谢酶活性影响显著,但过高的脂肪水平将使许氏平鲉肝脏脂肪沉积增多,当饲料脂肪水平高于9.6%时不利于鱼类健康生长。     

氯化胆碱对中华鲟幼鱼生长和生理指标的影响

用氯化胆碱质量分数为220、422、664、1 002、1 656、2 705、5 370 mg/kg的7组精制饲料饲养中华鲟幼鱼8周,研究胆碱对中华鲟幼鱼生长和部分生理指标的影响。随着饲料胆碱含量的增加,各组实验鱼增重率逐渐增大;饲料系数逐渐降低,5 370 mg/kg组最低,为0.87;肝体指数各组差异不显著;肌肉脂肪含量逐渐升高,1 656 mg/kg组最高;肝脏脂肪含量在2 705 mg/kg组最高,为29.56%;血清甘油三酯、胆固醇含量极显著增高,可能已是生长异常的表现。饲料中胆碱的适宜质量分数为1 656 mg/kg左右。     

饲料中添加胆碱对黄鳝生长、组织脂肪含量及消化酶活性的影响

研究了饲料中添用不同含量胆碱对黄鳝生长、饲料利用效率、肌肉和肝脏脂肪含量、肝体指数及消化器官4种消化酶活性的影响。结果表明,饲料中添加的胆碱含量不同,对黄鳝的影响不同,饲料中胆碱添加量在0～2.0％内,随着胆碱添加量的提高,黄鳝的生长速度会加快,饲料系数会逐步降低,肌肉、肝脏的脂肪含量及肝体指数降低,前肠、后肠和肝脏的蛋白酶、胰蛋白酶、淀粉酶和脂肪酶的活性均会相应的提高,而且饲料中的添加量达0.8%～1.0％时,这些变化显著,表明胆碱对黄鳝是不可缺少的,黄鳝饲料中胆碱的适宜添加量为0.8%～1.0％。     

Effect of dietary lysine on growth,intestinal enzymes activities and antioxidant status of sub-adult grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)

The dietary lysine requirement of sub-adult grass carp (460 ± 1.5 g) was assessed by feeding diets supplemented with grade levels of lysine (6.6, 8.5, 10.8, 12.9, 15.0 and 16.7 g kg^?1 diet) for 56 days. The test diets (28 % CP) contained fish meal, casein and gelatin as sources of intact protein, supplemented with crystalline amino acids. Weight gain (WG), feed intake and feed efficiency were significantly improved with increasing levels of lysine up to 12.9 g kg^?1 diet and thereafter declined (P < 0.05). Quadratic regression analysis of WG at 95 % maximum response indicated lysine requirement was 10.9 g kg^?1 diet. Activities of trypsin, chymotrypsin, lipase, Na⁺, K⁺-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase in intestine, creatine kinase activity in proximal and mid-intestine responded similar to WG (P < 0.05). In addition, lipid and protein oxidation decreased with increasing levels of lysine up to certain values and increased thereafter (P < 0.05); the anti-hydroxyl radical capacity, dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activities and glutathione content were increased with increasing dietary lysine levels up to certain values in the detected tissues, except for hepatopancreatic GST. Requirement estimated on the basis of malondialdehyde content in intestine and hepatopancreas was 10.6 and 9.53 g lysine kg^?1 diet, respectively.     

Effect of dietary bile acids on growth,body composition,lipid metabolism and microbiota in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)

To investigate the effects of dietary bile acids (BA) on growth and metabolism of lipid in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella, C. idella) at high dietary lipid level, a basal diet (50 g kg^–1 lipid, 5L group) was supplemented with 20 g kg^–1 soybean oil (70 g kg^–1 lipid, 7L group); then, 0.06 g/kg BA was added in 7L diet to form the third diet (7L+BA group). The 96 C. idella (69.86 ± 6.24 g) were divided into three groups (duplicate per group) and fed three diets, respectively, for 8 weeks, and then, growth and lipid metabolism were determined. Results showed that growth of fish in 7L+BA group was significantly higher than 5L and 7L groups. The lipid level in whole body, hepatopancreas and muscle of grass carp in 7L+BA group were significantly lower than 7L group. Relative expression of lipid catabolism genes in hepatopancreas and muscle of 7L+BA group was significantly higher than 5L group. The amount of microbiota in intestine of fish in 7L+BA group was significantly higher than the other two groups. The present results indicated that BA in 7L diet improved growth of fish by increasing protein synthesizing, decreasing lipid content in fish body and by regulating amount of microbiota in intestine of fish.

Effects of dietary glutamate supplementation on growth performance,digestive enzyme activities and antioxidant capacity in intestine of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)

A 56‐day feeding trial was carried out to investigate the effect of dietary glutamate (Glu) supplementation on growth performance, digestive enzyme activities and intestinal antioxidant capacity of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). A total of 540 grass carp with average initial weight of 370 ± 3.8 g were fed three diets supplemented with 0, 8 and 16 g kg^?1 Glu. The per cent weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and protein and lipid productive value were significantly improved by dietary Glu supplementation. Feed intake, condition factor, visceral somatic index and perivisceral fat ratio were not significantly different between dietary groups. Hepatosomatic index, intestinal somatic index, intestine length index, intestine protein content, trypsin activity in hepatopancreas and intestine, lipase activity in proximal and mid‐intestine (MI) and hepatopancreas, alkaline phosphatase and gamma‐glutamyl transpeptidase activities in intestine, creatine kinase activities in the mid‐ and distal intestine, intestinal folds height in the proximal and MI were significantly increased with increased Glu. Malondialdehyde and protein carbonyl contents in the intestine decreased with increased Glu. Superoxide anion and hydroxyl radical scavenging ability, glutathione reducase, catalase and total superoxide dismutase activities, and glutathione content in the intestine were increased with increased Glu. These results suggested that dietary Glu supplementation increased intestinal antioxidant capacity, digestive and absorptive ability and improved fish growth.     

Effects of dietary geniposidic acid on growth performance,flesh quality and collagen gene expression of grass carp,Ctenopharyngodon idella

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary geniposidic acid (GA) on growth performance, flesh quality and collagen gene expression of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). The fish with an initial body weight of 47.1 ± 0.8 g were fed one of the seven diets, including control diet, Eucommia ulmoides (EU)‐supplemented diet (20 g/kg) and GA‐supplemented diets (200, 400, 600, 800 and 1,000 mg/kg GA) for 75 days. The growth performance and muscle proximate composition showed no difference among groups (p > .05). Dietary GA (200–1,000 mg/kg) increased the contents of total collagen and alkaline‐insoluble collagen in skin (p < .05), and high supplementation of GA (600–1,000 mg/kg GA) and EU increased the contents of total collagen, alkaline‐insoluble collagen and total amino acids (p < .05), but reduced the lipid level in muscle (p < .05). In collagen gene expression, EU and 200–1,000 mg/kg GA increased COL1A1 expression in muscle and skin (p < .05), but the expression of COL1A2 was increased only by high supplementation of GA (1,000 mg/kg, or 800–1,000 mg/kg) (p < .05). In conclusion, dietary GA improved the flesh quality of grass carp, and the supplementation level was estimated to be 600 mg/kg diet.     

Effects of dietary non‐protein energy source levels on growth performance,body composition and lipid metabolism in herbivorous grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella Val.)

A study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary non‐protein energy sources on growth, tissue lipid accumulation and lipid metabolism‐related genes expression of grass carp. Triplicate groups of fish were fed for 9 weeks on four isonitrogenous (300 g kg^?1) experimental diets with four levels of non‐protein energy (6.52 kJ g^?1 control diet, 5.32 kJ g^?1 high‐CEL diet, 8.46 kJ g^?1 high‐CHO diet and 8.53 kJ g^?1 high‐LIP diet respectively). Increasing dietary non‐protein energy source levels did not improve the growth, and the high‐CEL diet reduced the growth of grass carp. The high‐CHO diet tended to induce high hepatosomatic index, with high fat and glycogen content of liver. However, the high‐LIP diet caused the high mesenteric fat index, but did not increase liver fat. The mRNA abundance and activities of hepatic lipogenic enzymes were significantly increased in the high‐CHO diet group, whereas the opposite tendencies were observed in the high‐LIP diet group. Peroxisome proliferator‐actived receptor‐α (PPARα) in liver and PPARγ in mesenteric adipose tissue were up‐regulated in the high‐CEL diet group. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene expression was significantly increased both in liver and mesenteric adipose tissue of fish fed the high‐LIP diet, while the LPL gene expression was up‐regulated in liver but down‐regulated in mesenteric adipose tissue of fish fed the high‐CEL diet. These findings suggest that an increase in dietary non‐protein energy sources alters the genes expression of lipid metabolism and increased lipid deposition.     

饲料中添加谷胱甘肽对草鱼组织中谷胱甘肽沉积和抗氧化能力的影响

在基础饲料中分别添加还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)至0 mg/kg、100 mg/kg、200 mg/kg、300 mg/kg、400 mg/kg和500 mg/kg,分别投喂草鱼(Ctenopharyngodon idella)幼鱼8周,草鱼幼鱼体质量(4.09±0.01)g,观察GSH在草鱼组织中沉积以及对草鱼抗氧化功能的影响.结果表明,饲料中添加外源GSH对草鱼生长影响不显著(P＞0.05),实验组肌肉中GSH含量显著高于对照组(P＜0.05),肝脏中GSH含量在GSH添加水平为200 mg/kg时显著高于对照组(P＜0.05),肝脏和肌肉中丙二醛(MDA)在GSH添加水平为300 mg/kg组达到最低,显著低于对照组(P＜0.05).添加GSH对血清中GSH和MDA影响不显著(P＞0.05).草鱼肝脏中谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)活力在400 mg/kg组显著高于对照组(P＜0.05),肌肉中GR活力有增高趋势但差异不显著(P＞0.05);肝脏和肌肉中γ-谷氨酰转移酶(γ-GT)均高于对照组,分别在300 mg/kg组和200 mg/kg组达到显著水平(P＜0.05);肝脏中谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-PX)活力、总抗氧化能力(T-AOC)和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)能力不同程度升高,均在200 mg/kg组达到最高,显著高于对照组(P＜0.05);血清GSH-PX活力和T-AOC有增高趋势但与对照组差异不显著(P＞0.05);血清和肝脏中活性氧(ROS)含量分别在400 mg/kg和300 mg/kg组达到最低,显著低于对照组(P＜0.05).结果提示,饲料中添加GSH能够促进草鱼肝脏和肌肉中GSH的沉积,提高肝脏及肌肉中GR和γ-GT活力,以及肝脏中GSH-PX和SOD活力与总抗氧化能力,减少肝脏中MDA含量,降低肝脏及血清中ROS含量,因此GSH在水产饲料中具有广泛的应用前景.     

Effect of dietary carbohydrate‐to‐lipid ratios on growth performance,body composition,nutrient utilization and hepatic enzymes activities of herbivorous grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)

Six isonitrogenous (390 g kg^?1) and isoenergetic (16.2 kJ g^?1) diets with varying carbohydrate : lipid (CHO : L) ratios (202.5–1.74), were fed to triplicate groups of 25 fish in indoor recirculation system. Over 8‐week‐growth trial, best weight gain (WG), specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, protein efficiency ratio and protein production value (P < 0.05) were observed in fish‐fed diets with CHO : L ratio of 7.5. Fish fed either the lowest (1.7) or highest (202.5) CHO : L ratio tended to produce lower (P < 0.05) growth and feed conversion efficiencies. The values of viscerosomatic index, hepatosomatic index and intraperitoneal fat ratio increased as dietary CHO : L ratios decreased. There were no significant differences in whole body and liver crude protein among dietary treatments. Whole body and liver lipid increased as CHO : L ratios decreased. Plasma cholesterol and triacylglyceride levels increased linearly as dietary CHO : L ratios decreased. Activities of glucokinase and pyruvate kinase were stimulated by elevated levels of dietary carbohydrate; however, activities of lipase (LPS) and alkaline phosphatase were stimulated by elevated levels of dietary lipid. Based on a second‐order polynomial regression analysis of WG against dietary carbohydrate and lipid levels, 275 g kg^?1 of carbohydrate and 59 g kg^?1 of lipid, corresponding to a CHO : L ratio of 4.7, in a diet holding 390 g kg^?1 of crude protein and 16.3 kJ g^?1 of gross energy, proved to be optimal for grass carp. These results indicated that utilization of dietary lipid and carbohydrate was moderate in grass carp, but the fish were a little more capable of utilizing lipid compared with carbohydrate.     

Effects of dietary glutamine supplementation on growth performance,antioxidant status and intestinal function in juvenile grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)

Glutamine (Gln) is a conditionally essential free amino acid that has been widely used in aquaculture. The present study showed that appropriate levels of dietary Gln could significantly improve growth performance and increase lipase and trypsin activity, mucosal thickness (MT) and the number of lymphocytes. The levels of glycine (Gly) in the 6 g/kg Gln group, threonine (Thr) in the 12 g/kg group and lysine (Lys) in the 6 and 9 g/kg group were increased significantly, while glutamate (Glu) and serine (Ser) concentrations decreased significantly with increasing dietary Gln levels from 3 to 12 g/kg. Moreover, the 12 g/kg dietary Gln level could improve the concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GSH‐PX) and the total antioxidant capacity (T‐AOC). In addition, 3 g/kg Gln upregulated the gene expression of aminopeptidase N (APN), caudal‐related homeobox gene (CDX2), L‐type amino acid transporter 2 (LAT2), oligopeptide transporter 1 (PEPT1), specificity proteins 1 (SP1) and 3 (SP3), and peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor α (PPAR‐α) but downregulated PPAR‐γ gene expression compared to that in the control group. Taken together, these findings suggest that Gln could improve the growth performance, antioxidant status and intestinal function of grass carp.

选用初始体质量为(8.35±0.06)g的草鱼(ctenopharyngodon idella)540尾,随机分成6组,每组3个重复,每个重复30尾鱼,分别饲喂苏氨酸水平为0.72%、1.02%、1.32%、1.62%、1.92%和2.22%(占饲料的质量分数)的6组等氮半精制饲料(蛋白质质量分数35%),经60 d生长实验确定草鱼幼鱼的苏氨酸需要量.实验结果表明,随着饲料苏氨酸水平增加,草鱼的增重率、特定生长率、蛋白质效率、蛋白质沉积率、肌肉RNA/DNA比值和血氨水平显著升高(P<0.05),均在1.62%组达到最大值;饲料系数和肝脏谷氨酸脱氢酶活力显著降低(P<0.05),均在1.62%组达到最小值;随着饲料苏氨酸水平进一步提高,上述指标不再发生显著变化(P>0.05).随饲料中苏氨酸水平的增加,草鱼血清总蛋白浓度显著升高,1.32%、1.62%和1.92%3组显著高于0.72%和1.02% (P<0.05),2.22%组达最大值,并显著高于其他各组(P<0.05);血清甘油三酯和胆固醇浓度在饲料苏氨酸水平为1.32%～2.22%的4组间没有显著差异(P>0.05),但显著高于0.72%组和1.02%组(P<0.05).饲料中苏氨酸水平为1.62%时,草鱼肌肉苏氨酸含量和肌肉氨基酸总量均为最大值,显著高于其他各组(P<0.05).饲料苏氨酸适宜水平能使草鱼全鱼水分显著降低,增加蛋白质、脂肪和灰分含量(P<0.05),同时降低草鱼肌肉水分,增加蛋白质含量(P<0.05),但不影响脂肪含量(P>0.05).饲料中苏氨酸水平对草鱼肝脏谷丙转氨酶、谷草转氨酶活力无显著影响(P>0.05).以特定生长率、饲料系数、蛋向质沉积率、肌肉RNA/DNA和谷氨酸脱氢酶活力分别对饲料苏氨酸水平进行折线同归分析,并以这些指标达95%最佳值时为判断依据,得出草鱼幼鱼饲料中苏氨酸适宜需要量以占饲料的质量分数计为1.42%～1.61%(饲料蛋白质质量分数35%)或以占饲料蛋白质的质量分数为4.07%～4.60%.
