Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of dietary DHA and α-tocopherol on bone development, early mineralisation and oxidative stress in Sparus aurata (Linnaeus, 1758) larvae
M.S. Izquierdo,M. Scolamacchia,Mónica B. Betancor,Javier Roo,M. J. Caballero,Genciana Terova,P. E. Witten +6 more
TL;DR: The expression of genes coding for specific antioxidants such as catalase, superoxide dismutase or glutathione peroxidase was significantly decreased in larvae fed high α-tocopherol levels, which denoted the importance of DHA for early bone formation and mineralisation.
Journal ArticleDOI
European sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax , in a changing ocean
Edward C. Pope,Rob Ellis,M. Scolamacchia,J. W. S. Scolding,A. Keay,P. Chingombe,Robin J. Shields,R. Wilcox,Douglas C. Speirs,Rod W. Wilson,Ceri Lewis,Kevin J. Flynn +11 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the potential effects of ocean acidification on the early life stages of a commercially important fish species, European sea bass, concludes that more work is required to investigate whether the differences in juvenile physiology observed in this study manifest as negative impacts in adult fish.
Journal ArticleDOI
Muscle activity as a key indicator of welfare in farmed European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L. 1758)
Pierluigi Carbonara,M. Scolamacchia,Maria Teresa Spedicato,Walter Zupa,R. S. McKinley,Giuseppe Lembo +5 more
TL;DR: The results showed that the contemporary use of functional (EMG) and physiological (haematological and biochemical) profiles could give a more comprehensive view of the fish status validating the diagnosis of fish stress induced by culture practices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of muscle activity indices as a relative measure of well-being in cultured sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax (Linnaeus, 1758)
TL;DR: Fine-tuning indicated that the two muscle types in the sea bass are involved in fuelling swimming activity below the Ucrit, demonstrating that the scope for activity, previously thought to represent only aerobic metabolism, is composed of both aerobic and anaerobic pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of stress induced by cortisol administration on the repeatability of swimming performance tests in the European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.)
Pierluigi Carbonara,Ilaria Corsi,Silvano Focardi,Giuseppe Lembo,Sergio Rochira,M. Scolamacchia,Maria Teresa Spedicato,R. S. McKinley +7 more
TL;DR: The impact of stress induced by cortisol administration on the swimming performance of the European sea bass was tested measuring the fish recovery capability using a respirometer, with a significant reduction in the recovery capability shown in the cortisol group interpreted as a sign of possible physiological impairment.
