Feeding Frequency of Nile Tilapia Fed Rations Supplemented With Amino Acids

Abstract: -The present study evaluated the feeding frequency of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fed low-protein diets (29% crude protein) supplemented with commercial amino acids (L-lysine-HCl, DL-methionine, and L-threonine). Sex-reversed Nile tilapia (240) of Thai origin, with initial body weight of 0.93 ± 0.03 g each, were allocated in a completely randomized design, to five groups with various feeding frequencies (2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 times a day). Six replications were conducted on separate experimental units com… Show more

“…show that fish-fed diets formulated based on the dilution technique had greater body protein deposition owing to the higher proportion of amino acids from protein sources, which are used more efficiently than crystalline amino acids (Bomfim et al, 2008;Lanna et al, 2016).…”

“…Crystalline amino acids have higher gastric emptying rate and absorption, which can lead to temporary imbalance in amino acids profile for protein synthesis. The amino acids from protein sources (corn, soybean meal and wheat bran) are absorbed more slowly and at a more compatible rate with the use in synthesis sites, minimizing catabolism (Bomfim et al, 2008;Lanna et al, 2016).…”

“…Therefore, through diet optimisation, an effective synchronisation strategy between the intrinsic and the crystalline amino acids is warranted in the future to improve dietary utilisation of yeasts as a major protein ingredients in fish feeds. The effects of feeding frequency on amino acid synchronisation and consequently on protein utilisation, are well‐documented in fish, such as common carp (Nwanna et al 2012), rainbow trout (Peragón et al 1992; Barroso et al 1999), channel catfish (Zarate et al 1999) and Nile tilapia (Lanna et al 2016). Therefore, the use of different feeding frequency in yeast diets supplemented with crystalline amino acids could be an interesting area of research in the future.…”

“…As dietary nutrients play an important role in the performance and body composition of animals, studies determining the protein and amino acid requirements of animals have been prioritized (National Research Council -NRC, 2011). Similar to other animals, fish require essential and non-essential amino acids for their metabolic requirements (Lanna et al, 2016;Silva et al, 2018).…”
