Sodium alginate supplementation modulates gut microbiota,health parameters,growth performance and growth‐related gene expression in Malaysian Mahseer Tor tambroides

This study investigated the effects of sodium alginate supplementation on gut microbiota composition, health parameters, growth performances and growth‐related gene expression of Malaysian mahseer. Five test diets were formulated by supplementing 0%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.8% sodium alginate. Triplicate groups of juvenile Tor tambroides (2.19 ± 0.05 g) were stocked in 15 aquaria (20 individuals per aquarium) and fed at 3.0% body weight per day for 60 days. PCoA and UPGMA analysis showed that gut bacterial community were more convergence in higher sodium alginate‐supplemented diets. The percentage of Porphyromonadaceae, Bacteroides, Plesiomonas and Shewanella were substantially higher and Aeromonas, Entomoplasmatales and Prevotellaceae were drastically lower in higher sodium alginate (0.2%–0.8%) diets. Sodium alginate supplementation (≥0.2%) significantly improved the haematocrit value and respiratory burst activity of T. tambroides. Growth performances and feed utilization were significantly higher in 0.2%–0.4% sodium alginate‐supplemented diets. The increased growth rate of T. tambroides was governed by both hyperplastic and hypertrophic muscle growth. Real‐time PCR data demonstrated that most of the growth‐related genes were significantly upregulated in 0.2%–0.4% sodium alginate‐supplemented diet. Finally, it can be concluded that sodium alginate should be supplemented at 2 g/kg in practical fish feed formulation.     

Study on the glass transition for several processed fish muscles and its protein fractions using differential scanning calorimetry

ABSTRACT:   The glass transition behavior of processed fish muscles (bonito, tuna, mackerel, sea bream, cod) and its muscle protein fractions (sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar proteins) were studied using differential scanning calorimetry. Each dried processed fish muscle and the extracted protein fractions showed clear glass transition phenomenon. The T _g values of muscles and myofibrillar proteins from red muscle fishes tended to be lower than those from white muscle fishes though there was no difference on T _g of sarcoplasmic proteins. The T _g value of whole muscle was considerably lower than that of extracted protein fractions because of the plasticizing effects of low molecular weight materials contained in the muscle.

The changes in proximate compositions and glycogen contents in the dorsal ordinary muscles of the full-cycle cultured Pacific bluefin tuna Thunnus orientalis occurring with growth

ABSTRACT:   Using full-cycle cultured (FC) Pacific bluefin tuna (body length [BL], 42.6–66.4 cm; body weight [BW], 1.66–7.40 kg, n  = 15), the changes in chemical compositions and histological structure of the cephalal parts of the dorsal ordinary muscles (DOM) occurring with growth were investigated. A positive correlation ( r  = 0.9644, P  < 0.05) was observed between BL and BW with growth. The protein, lipid and ash contents of DOM and condition factor did not change with growth. However, the glycogen content of DOM increased ( P  < 0.05) from approximately 55 cm (BL) in this study. Using optical microscopic photographs, the various shapes of muscle fibers were observed and it was noted that the muscle fiber diameter increased ( P  < 0.05) with growth. Using transmission electron microscopic observation, many glycogen granules were observed in muscle fibers (especially, side of connective tissue) of DOM throughout the growth stage in this study. These results indicate that the glycogen content of DOM of FC Pacific bluefin tuna increases before the lipid with growth.

以虾夷扇贝闭壳肌重量与脂肪酸组成为主要筛选指标,通过对不同选育家系的生长性状进行比较,在筛选出闭壳肌高出柱率家系的同时,以EPA、DHA和ω-3/ω-6脂肪酸比值等重要营养性状作为参考指标进行家系筛选。结果显示,在12个选育家系中,B04、B05、B10家系的出柱率优势最显著;各家系闭壳肌的EPA+DHA占总脂肪酸45%以上,ω-3/ω-6脂肪酸比值范围为10.94~12.69,家系B03、B05、B06、B07、B10、B11与B12在闭壳肌脂肪酸含量上具有更高选育价值;综合分析,判定B05和B10为虾夷扇贝闭壳肌高出柱率且高品质脂肪酸家系。研究表明,虾夷扇贝的生长与闭壳肌的主要脂肪酸组成没有显著相关性,以闭壳肌脂肪酸含量与生长性状指标进行虾夷扇贝复合性状选育是可行的,本研究结果可以为扇贝选择育种工作的深入开展提供科学依据。     

Influence of pH and temperature on force development and shortening velocity in skinned muscle fibres from fish

Three species of fish were studied: Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), sculpin (Myoxocephalus scorpius) (from the North Sea, temperature 2 to 12°C) andNotothenia neglecta (from Antarctica, temperature –2 to +2°C). Single fast muscle fibres were isolated from anterior myotomes and skinned with detergent in order to directly determine the effects of pH and temperature on force production and shortening velocity.In all species maximum force production (Po) was independent of pH over the range 7.3–8.0. Decreasing the pH from 7.3 to 6.6 reduced maximum force by 28% in fibres fromG. morhua andN. neglecta but had no effect on fibres fromM. scorpius. The depression in maximum force with acidosis was accompanied by a proportional decrease in stiffness and an increase in the rate of force recovery after stretch.Unloaded contraction velocity of cod fibres (Vmax) showed a pH optimum at around pH 7.6 decreasing by 31% at pH 6.6. Vmax of fibres from the other species was independent of pH over the range 6.6–8.0.The effects of pH on Po and Vmax were similar at 0 and 10°C. Thus for maximally activated fibres both force and contraction velocity are independent of temperature induced changes in pH. In some species acidosis depresses contractility and is likely to be a contributory factor to muscle fatigue.

测定了海捕银鲳亲鱼肌肉,肝脏和性腺组织的氨基酸,并分析了不同性腺发育阶段的氨基酸变化。结果表明,雄性V期亲鱼精巢中的牛磺酸含量最高（27.8mg/g）,显著高于肌肉和肝脏组织,而雄性V期亲鱼氨基酸总量在肌肉中最高（631.4 mg/g）,其次是精巢（544.8 mg/g）和肝脏（468.0 mg/g）组织。雌性亲鱼肝脏中的牛磺酸含量（13.7 mg/g）显著高于卵巢和肌肉组织。在卵巢从III期发育到V期过程中,雌性亲鱼肌肉和肝脏中的氨基酸总量在V期下降显著,而卵巢氨基酸总量维持稳定。在总氨基酸的组成上,肌肉中含量高的氨基酸为Glu,Lys, Asp,Leu和Arg;肝脏中含量高的为Glu,Lys, Asp,Val和Leu;精巢中含量高为Glu,Asp, Lys, Arg和Val;卵巢含量高中为Glu,Lys,Leu,Val和Asp。性别和性腺发育阶段对亲鱼肌肉总氨基酸组成无影响。游离氨基酸含量在III 、IV和 V期卵巢中的含量分别为17.7 mg/g ,41.5 mg/g和29.6 mg/g,且其组成随性腺发育阶段的不同而有显著差异。     

虾夷扇贝横纹肌和平滑肌的蛋白分布及理化性质

为探讨虾夷扇贝闭壳肌中横纹肌(ST)和平滑肌(SM)蛋白分布特征及理化性质差异。对肌肉组织进行切片、苏木精—伊红染色后,在光学显微镜下观察肌肉组织形态,SDS-PAGE分析蛋白组成,通过盐溶性和Ca~(2+)-ATPase对理化性质进行了比较研究。研究表明,横纹闭壳肌的肌纤维更粗,肌细胞间更致密;Myorod蛋白仅存在于平滑闭壳肌中,在横纹闭壳肌中不存在;副肌球蛋白在平滑闭壳肌中含量为31%,横纹肌中仅为11%。2种肌肉盐溶曲线也完全不同,在0.05~1.0 mol/L盐浓度范围内平滑肌的溶解性呈S型曲线上升,而横纹肌呈直线型上升,这种差异可能与副肌球蛋白含量有关。此外,平滑肌和横纹肌肌原纤维蛋白Ca~(2+)-ATPase最适温度分别为35和30°C,活化能分别为23.4和11.3 k J/mo L。
