“…The supplementation of DBA to broiler diets did not affect bursa, spleen at d 42 of age while it decreased liver weight. Wang et al (2014) reported that the relative weights of the bursa of Fabricius were higher when 0.05% Tau was added to the diet as compared with the control. A similar result was found in a study of Schuller-Levis et al (1990), who reported that the relative weights of the thymus and bursa of Fabricius were increased due to dietary Tau and the absence of Tau could lead to a decrease in spleen weight.…”

A 3 × 3 factorial experiment (4 pens/treatment, 10 birds/pen) was conducted with 3 levels of supplemental taurine (Tau) (0.0, 0.25 and 0.50%) and 3 levels of dissected bile acid (DBA): 0.0, 0.25 and 0.50% of the diet were arranged in a completely randomized design. Isocaloric and isonitrogenous starter and grower diets were fed ad libitum to chickens from 7 -21 and 22 -42 d, respectively. The measured parameters were body weight gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), feed conversion ratio (FCR), fat digestibility, serum cholesterol (Chol), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (HDL). The supplementation of Tau had no effect on FI, BWG and FCR for all periods. Moreover, BWG and FCR were a function of the DBA level in the diet for the finisher and the cumulative periods; birds which received the highest level of DBA (0.50%) had the highest BWG and the best FCR as compared to 0.0 and 0.25%. Fat digestibility was significantly improved by Tau and DBA supplementation. DBA and Tau supplementation had increased serum components at 21 and 42 d of age. The supplementation of Tau or DBA in the diets did not affect carcass parameters at 42 d of age. However, a linear reduction on the small intestinal weight was observed as a result of DBA supplementation. Supplementation of the diets with Tau significantly increased bursa weights. The results of this study indicated that Tau had limited impact on performance, while the supplementation of DBA at 0.50% had the best improvements in performance and blood characteristics and this could be explained in part by its positive effect on fat digestibility.

“…In some carnivorous fish it has been shown that performance is hampered with low-taurine diets and that a pathological condition, named green liver syndrome, may develop in certain species under these circumstances (Takagi et al, 2005(Takagi et al, , 2006Goto et al, 2001). Though fish are known to be capable of synthesizing taurine, differences in biosynthesis rate, physiological requirement level, life stage or species may explain the essentiality of taurine under certain conditions (Kim et al, 2008;Wang et al, 2014). Taurine inclusion in plant-based diets has been shown to improve the performance of several marine fish species (Lunger et al, 2007;Chatzifotis et al, 2008;Takagi et al, 2008Takagi et al, , 2010Enteria et al, 2011).…”

“…Grass carp were obtained from Lu-Ban Lake Fisheries (Sichuan, China). According to Wang et al [40], all fish were acclimated to the experimental conditions for 2 weeks. Subsequently, a total of 540 grass carp, with an average initial weight of 287 ± 1.1 g, were randomly distributed into 18 experimental cages (1.4 Â 1.4 Â 1.4 m), each of which was equipped with a disc of 100-cm diameter made of 1-mm gauze at the bottom to collect the uneaten food as described by Tang et al [41].…”
