Effects of dietary carnitine and protein energy: non-protein energy ratios on growth, ammonia excretion and respiratory quotient in African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) (Burchell) juveniles

TL;DR: Two separate feeding experiments were carried out to determine the effects of dietary carnitine supplements on growth rates, total ammonia nitrogen excretion and respiratory quotient rates in the African catfish, Clarias gariepinus (Burchell), juveniles fed various diets differing in protein energy:nonprotein energy ratio (PE:NPE).
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxygen consumption constrains food intake in fish fed diets varying in essential amino acid composition.

TL;DR: A difference in food intake between diets under normoxia together with the identical oxygen consumption supports the hypothesis that food intake in fish can be constrained by a set-point value of oxygen consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in oxygen content and acid-base balance in arterial and portal blood in response to the dietary electrolyte balance in pigs during a 9-h period after a meal.

TL;DR: DEB changed blood oxygen content and pH, and influenced the acid-base buffer system in pigs, and maintained a relatively constant blood pH level during the 9-h period after feeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

A preliminary model for dynamic simulation of growth in fish larvae: application to the African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) and turbot (Scophthalmus maximus).

TL;DR: An explanatory model that simulates growth and body composition of fish larvae is described, which indicates that an increase in the dietary protein level of currently used diets would stimulate growth and lead to a reduction in lipid deposition, providing the dietary AA profile is well balanced.
Journal ArticleDOI

WSSV risk factors related to water physico-chemical properties and microflora in semi-intensive Penaeus monodon culture ponds in the Philippines

TL;DR: The effect of some biotic and abiotic components of the pond ecosystem on WSSV infection and outbreak is investigated; further studies are needed to clarify the effects of water depth, water transparency, and various bacterial counts.
