“…4.33% of dietary protein is similar to the 4.4% reported for rainbow front (Ogino 1980). It is however higher than the requirements reported for chinook salmon, 3.9% (Chance et al 1964), juvenile common carp, 3.9% (Nose et al 1974), young eel, Anguilla japonica, 4.1% , channel catfish, 3.5% (Wilson et al 1980), Mozambique tilapia, 3.4% (Jauncey et al 1983), lake trout, 3.66% (Hughes et al 1983), Nile tilapia, 3.39% (Santiago and Lovell 1988), and catla, 3.70% (Ravi and Devaraj 1991). Higher requirement values have been reported for Japanese eel, 5.3% , milkfish, 5.11% (Borlongan and Coloso 1993) and rohu, 4.63% (Murthy and Varghese 1997).…”

Benakappa S., Varghese T.J., 2003. Isoleucine, leucine, and valine requirement of juvenile Indian major carp, Cirrhinus cirrhosus (Bloch, 1795). Acta Ichthyol. Piscat. 33 (2): 161-172.Background. Mrigal, Cirrhinus cirrhosus (Bloch, 1795)(junior synonym C. mrigala), is one of the most widely cultured Indian major carps. The main aim of this study was to quantify the dietary isoleucine, leucine, and valine requirements of mrigal juveniles. Material and methods. Growth studies were conducted with juvenile mrigal to determine the minimal requirements for the branched-chain amino acids: isoleucine, leucine, and valine. The experimental diets were formulated from purified ingredients to contain 40% crude protein. Casein and gelatin served as protein sources and were supplemented with crystalline L -amino acids to provide an amino acid pattern found in mrigal muscle protein. The amino acids for which the requirements were being determined was were supplemented at varying levels. Dietary inclusion levels for isoleucine ranged from 0.88 to 1.45%, for leucine from 1.36 to 2.05%, and for valine from 1.23 to 1.75%. Results. The optimum dietary requirements for isoleucine, leucine, and valine for mrigal, estimated using break point analysis were 1.25%, 1.73%, and 1.55% of dry diet, respectively. These values correspond to 3.12% isoleucine, 4.33% leucine, and 3.87% valine when expressed as a percentage of dietary protein. Food conversion rate, specific growth rate, and survival were better in treatments with diets containing 1.25% for isoleucine, 1.73% for leucine, and 1.55% for valine. Conclusion. :Results of this study clearly demonstrated that Cirrhinus cirrhosus could utilize free amino acids for growth. Further, the findings would be useful in formulating isoleucine, leucine, and valine balanced diets in controlled production of mrigal.

“…Sulfobetaine was included in the diets as a feed stimulant. Dietary ingredients were completely mixed and all diets were adjusted to pH 7.0 with 6 N NaOH prior to pelleting (Nose et al, 1974). The wet dough was extruded into a 3.6 mm pellet by a laboratory granulator Fishery Mechanical Facility Research Institute,Shanghai,China).…”

“…Studies in higher animals (Mitchell, 1924 ;Rérat, 1971) and in growing fish (Nose, 1971 ; (Halver, 1957 ;Aoe et al, 1970 ;Kaushik, 1979). Compared to an intact protein diet, an amino acid diet resulted in poorer growth in many cases, especially in stomachless fish (Aoe et al, 1970 ;Nose et al, 1974 ;Mazid et al, 1978). The efficiency of the amino acid diet was improved to a certain extent by adjusting its pH (Nose et al, 1974 ;Wilson et al, 1977 (Kaushik et al, 1982 ;Kaushik and Dabrowski, 1983).…”
