Effects of dietary protein level on growth performance, carcass composition and ammonia excretion in juvenile silver perch (Bidyanus bidyanus)

TLDR
The amount of postprandial ammonia excreted by silver perch within 24 h was linearly related to dietary protein level, and the protein efficiency ratio and productive protein value were inversely correlated with dietaryprotein level.

Effect of dietary protein level, initial body weight, and their interaction on the growth, feed utilization, and physiological alterations of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.)

TL;DR: The optimum growth of fry tilapia was obtained at 45% CP, while fingerling and advanced juvenile showed optimum growth performance with the 35%-CP diet, and Hematological variables were significantly affected by protein level, fish weight, and their interaction except for serum lipids which was not significant.

Optimal dietary protein requirement of grouper Epinephelus coioides juveniles fed isoenergetic diets in floating net cages

TL;DR: Based on broken-line regression analysis of SGR the optimal dietary protein requirement for grouper Epinephelus coioides juveniles was determined to be close to 480 g kg−1.

Effects of dietary levels of protein on nitrogenous metabolism of Rhamdia quelen (Teleostei: Pimelodidae).

TL;DR: The rise in the hepatic activity of protein-metabolising enzymes in the fish fed high protein diets denoted effective use of dietary amino acids for growth and as a substrate for gluconeogenesis.

Systemic adaptation of lipid metabolism in response to low- and high-fat diet in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).

TL;DR: Overall quantitative PCR, western blotting and transcriptomic assays indicated that the liver was the primary responding organ to low‐fat (LF) diet feeding, and the elevated glycolysis and accelerated biosynthesis of fatty acids (FA) in the liver is likely to be the main strategies of tilapia toward LF intake.

Effect of high dietary starch levels on growth, hepatic glucose metabolism, oxidative status and immune response of juvenile largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the starch levels may affect growth performance and metabolic changes, which suggest that high‐starch diets were inefficiently used as an energy source by M. salmoides juveniles.

A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from animal tissues.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors described a simplified version of the method and reported the results of a study of its application to different tissues, including the efficiency of the washing procedure in terms of the removal from tissue lipides of some non-lipide substances of special biochemical interest.
