Journal ArticleDOI
Fish oil replacement in finfish nutrition
TL;DR: This review attempts to compile all principal information available regarding the effects of fish oil replacement for the diets of farmed finfish, analysing the findings using a comparative approach among different cultured fish species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tailoring of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) flesh lipid composition and sensory quality by replacing fish oil with a vegetable oil blend.
Bente E. Torstensen,J. Gordon Bell,Grethe Rosenlund,R. James Henderson,Ingvild Eide Graff,Douglas R. Tocher,Øyvind Lie,John R. Sargent +7 more
TL;DR: By blending VOs to provide balanced levels of dietary fatty acids, up to 100% of the fish oil can be replaced by the VO blend without compromising growth or flesh quality, thereby providing a beneficial nutritional profile for human consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Replacing dietary fish oil with increasing levels of rapeseed oil and olive oil – effects on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) tissue and lipoprotein lipid composition and lipogenic enzyme activities
TL;DR: The amount of plasma lipoproteins, liver monoene fatty acid level and lipogenic enzyme activity decreased from the autumn to the winter sampling with concomitant decrease in temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation of nutrient composition of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae by feeding seaweed-enriched media
Nina S. Liland,Irene Biancarosa,Pedro Araujo,Daan Biemans,Christian Guido Bruckner,Rune Waagbø,Bente E. Torstensen,Erik-Jan Lock +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that inclusion of the brown algae Ascophyllum nodosum in the substrate for black soldier fly larvae can introduce valuable nutrients, commonly associated with the marine environment, into the larvae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards Fish Lipid Nutrigenomics: Current State and Prospects for Fin-Fish Aquaculture
Michael J. Leaver,José M. Bautista,Björn Thrandur Björnsson,Elisabeth Jönsson,Grigorios Krey,Douglas R. Tocher,Bente E. Torstensen +6 more
TL;DR: Comparative studies of gene function and distribution are described, which, when integrated with recent fish genome sequence information, provide insights into lipid homeostasis and the outcomes associated with the replacement of FO in fish diets.
