Abstract: The effects of replacing fishmeal (FM) with kikuyu meal (KM) and moringa meal (MM) in Clarias gariepinus diets were investigated. Nine diets (30% CP: 20 MJ kg -1 ) were formulated by replacing FM with KM and MM at 0% (control), 25, 50, 75 and 100%. Each diet was randomly assigned to triplicate groups of C. gariepinus (30.5±2 g) for 60 days. Significantly higher (P<0.05) growth performance, feed and protein utilisation was observed in C. gariepinus fed KM diets compared to those fed MM. No histological alterati… Show more

“…Likewise, the hepatocyte morphology of sharpsnout sea bream, Diplodus puntazzo (Walbaum, 1792), appeared to not be altered by plant protein substitution (Nogales Mérida et al 2010). In contrast to our fi ndings, Hlophe and Moyo (2014) reported that liver histology indicated an increase in hepatocyte degradation with increasing levels of Kikuyu grass meal and moringa leaves meal. Similarly, Hu et al (2013) reported that high substitution of fi sh meal by animal protein blend (up to 60% and 80%) appeared to enlarge the hepatocytes and induce apparent hepatic steatosis.…”

“…The availability of FM, however, cannot be guaranteed any longer because the capture fi sheries are levelling off (Hlophe and Moyo 2014). Hence, partial or total replacement of FM with cost-effective, widely available, plant or animal protein sources has been important for developing aquaculture sector (Yang et al 2006, Hernández et al 2014.…”

“…Samkelisiwe et al [45] investigated the antioxidant strength of M. oleifera leaves in different in vitro systems including its effects on the activity of SOD, CAT, LPO and GSH in goats supplemented with M. oleifera seed cake. The hepato-protective effect of aqueous M. oleifera leaf extract against radiation-induced oxidative stress in mice was assessed by Sinha et al [46] by performing the immunoblotting and biochemical tests on the samples of mice liver. They reported that pretreatment of mice with M. oleifera leaf extract protected them against radiation-induced liver damage by reducing the oxidative damage.…”

“…The saponin has a negative effect on the biological membranes that act as a surface-active component, leading to the intestinal mucosal cells permeability increasing and affecting active nutrients transportation. Moreover, phytate reduces the minerals bioavailability and the protein digestibility through phytic acid-protein complexes, which restrain the nutrient absorption (Hlophe & Moyo, 2014).…”
