Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of digestive enzyme activity during larval development of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata).

TL;DR: Zymograms of larval extracts indicated that exogenous food has more a qualitative than a quantitative role in the secretion of digestive enzymes in this species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth and physiological changes during metamorphosis of Senegal sole reared in the laboratory

TL;DR: The metamorphosis of Solea senegalensis was studied in larvae reared at 20° C and fed four different feeding regimes, finding this transformation is concomitant with changes in body reserves, and with the pattern of some digestive enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of the microalga Scenedesmus almeriensis as fishmeal alternative in diets for gilthead sea bream, Sparus aurata, juveniles

TL;DR: This study confirmed the usefulness of S. almeriensis to partially replace fishmeal in practical diets for gilthead sea bream juveniles in a 45-day trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization and functional properties of digestive proteases in two sparids; gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) and common dentex (Dentex dentex)

TL;DR: Evidences support the existence of a more active and complex protease set in dentex, and important differences in total activity, as well as in thermal and pH stability were found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of dietary administration of probiotics on growth and intestine functionality of juvenile Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis, Kaup 1858)

TL;DR: The effects of the dietary administration of two bacterial probiotic strains from the Alteromonadaceae family for 60 days, growth and feed efficiency, activities of leucine aminopeptidase and alkaline phosphatase and structural changes in the intestine of juvenile Senegalese sole were assessed.
