“…This depends on many other factors such as the physical properties (i.e., particle size, solubility, etc. ), and chemical properties (i.e., amino acid content); but also biological characteristics of the animal; the architecture of the digestive tract, and physiology will affect protein digestibility, and also environmental conditions are important (pH, temperature, salinity, ions); all these aspect should be considered for the determination of in vitro protein digestibility of ingredients or feed (Cruz-Suárez, 1996;Ezquerra et al, 1998;Carrillo-Farnés et al, 2007). However, most of the new protein ingredients have not been assessed from the digestibility point of view (Álvarez-González, 2003).…”

“…The feed digestibility and assimilation are also very important to reduce its conversion into a source of water pollutants, with negative effects on the ecosystem (Terrazas et al, 2010a). An efficient feeding depends on the nutritional characteristics of the feed, its digestibility, and feeding strategy since they are essential elements in providing nutrients and energy needed for efficient growth of cultivated species (Carrillo-Farnés et al, 2007;Chisty et al, 2009). …”

ABSTRACT. Due to the cost of raw materials, the need to formulate balanced feeds with highly digestible ingredients is indispensable for the aquaculture feed industry. For this reason, the protein in vitro digestibility, assessed by the pH-stat method, of ingredients with potential of using them on the balanced feed for Macrobrachium tenellum, were evaluated. The relative protein digestibility was assessed in twelve feed ingredients, including animal (pork meal, feather poultry meal, prime poultry meal, turkey meal, fish meal, shrimp meal), vegetal (coconut paste, chickpea meal, soybean meal, wheat gluten) and microbial (yeast and Spirulina meal); casein (Hammerstein grade) was used as the reference protein. The highest relative protein digestibility was found in: Spirulina meal (52.6%); following by pork meal (45.6%), and feather poultry meal (39.6%). The lowest digestibilities were found in soybean meal (15.9%), chickpea meal (12.1%), and fish meal (11.6%). The protein digestibility value should be considered for selecting potential ingredients for the formulation of balanced feeds for M. tenellum.

“…Thus, proper animal nutrition is essential for a profitable activity. Efficient feed utilization depends on our knowledge of how the organism uses its components (Carrillo‐Farnés, Forrellat‐Barrios, Guerrero‐Galván, & Vega‐Villasante, ). For example, in animal species, the capacity of its digestive enzymes is one of the main factors contributing to nutrient absorption.…”

“…In particular, protein digestion is carried out by proteases—digestive enzymes that hydrolyze peptide bonds (Murado, González, & Vázquez, ). The proteases of decapod crustaceans have been studied over the last decades for numerous applications (Carrillo‐Farnés et al, ; F. L. García‐Carreño & Haard, ; Muhlia‐Almazán, Sánchez‐Paz, & García‐Carreño, ; Saborowski, Schatte, & Gimenez, ). Specifically, previous studies in Cherax spp.…”

This research studied the in vitro compatibility of Cherax quadricarinatus digestive proteases and crude enzyme extracts recovered from fish‐processing waste to evaluate their potential use as feed additives to increase digestion efficiency in decapod crustaceans. The sources of exogenous enzymes were: Pleoticus muelleri (Pm), Artemesia longinaris (Al), and Illex argentinus (Ia). The midgut glands of early (7.2 ± 0.34 g) and advanced juveniles (13.8 ± 1.49 g) of C. quadricarinatus were used for all the assays. The compatibility and synergy between crayfish and exogenous enzymes were evaluated through sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) electrophoresis and the hydrolysis of azocasein and four different meals. SDS–PAGE gels demonstrated that crayfish bands remained active when their enzymes were combined with the enzymes from Pm and Ia. An apparent enzymatic synergism was found when Pm and crayfish proteases were incubated together at pH 6 and 8 with azocasein (p ˂ 0.05). The ability to hydrolyze the different feed ingredients varied among the enzyme combinations assayed. Our findings suggest that fish waste has potential as a source of proteases, adding value to these processing residues and promoting a zero‐waste industry. Enzymes obtained from Pm and Ia are suitable to be used as food additives for crayfish. The results should be validated through feeding trials.

“…Feed cost represents a large portion (up to 70%) of the total operating cost in intensive aquaculture (Thompson et al 2010). Adequate nutrition is essential for profitable aquaculture, and the effectiveness of the feeds administered depends on our knowledge of how organisms use the components of the diet (Carrillo-Farn es et al 2006). The intake of sufficient amounts of nutrients by an organism depends on its ability to select and digest them and the capacity of its digestive enzymes (Bautista 1983).…”

Sacrist an, H.J., Fern andez-Gimenez, A.V., Chaulet, A., Franco Tadic, L.M., Fenucci, J. and L opez Greco, L.S. 2015. Effect of different diets on digestive enzyme activities, in vitro digestibility, and midgut gland structure in juvenile crayfish, Cherax quadricarinatus. -Acta Zoologica (Stockholm) 00: 000-000.This study investigated the effects of food quality on digestive enzyme activities, in vitro protein digestibility and histological traits of the midgut gland in juvenile crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus. Animals of a wide weight range were fed different diets: two commercial diets with high or low lipid content (high lipid and low lipid, respectively) and were compared with a reference diet (RF) previously formulated for this species. Proteinase, lipase and amylase activities were significantly influenced by diet and weight. Specific trypsin activity was significantly higher for crayfish fed with the HL diet. Trypsin activity depended on diet and weight. Protein digestibility showed that HL was the most digestible diet and RF the least. The weight of the animals did not affect protein digestibility. Structural disorganization, hypertrophy of B-cells and presence of large vacuoles in R-cells were mainly observed in juveniles fed with HL, indicative of malnutrition. Thus, our data suggest that the HL diet would not be the most appropriate for C. quadricarinatus, while RF diet would be more convenient for culture of this species.
