Similarly, Stadtlander et al 98 showed that inclusion of 150 g kg −1 of P. yezoensis Ueda meal in isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets for intensively fed Nile tilapia, replacing fishmeal, improved growth rate, feed efficiency, and protein efficiency ratio, whereas there were no differences between fish fed the control and the 300 g kg −1 P. yezoensis diets.…”

“…The Gracilaria diet also resulted in increased glutathione S‐transferase, an enzyme responsible for removing reactive oxygen species (ROS), suggesting that macroalgal supplementation may protect fish from ROS. The immunostimulatory properties of macroalgae may depend on the inclusion rate: Peixoto et al . reported a decrease in the hemolytic capacity of the alternative pathway complement system with the inclusion of 75 g kg −1 of Gracilaria or 75 g kg −1 of a macroalgal mixture, while Araujo et al .…”

Marine macroalgae as sources of protein and bioactive compounds in feed for monogastric animals

2018

Marine macroalgae are considered as promising sustainable alternatives to conventional terrestrial animal feed resources. The advantages include high growth rate, potential cultivation in saltwater, and no occupation of arable land. Macroalgae are broadly classified as brown (Phaeophyta), red (Rhodophyta) and green (Chlorophyta) algae, and are a diverse group of marine organisms. The nutritional value of macroalgae is highly variable. The protein and essential amino acid content can be low, especially in brown species, and indigestible polysaccharides adversely affect the energy value. Optimal use of macroalgae in feeds requires suitable processing, and biorefinery approaches may increase protein content and improve nutrient availability. Macroalgae are rich in unique bioactive components and there is a growing interest in the potentially beneficial health effects of compounds such as laminarin and fucoidan in different macroalgal and macroalgal products. This review summarizes current literature on different aspects of the use of macroalgae as sources of protein and health-promoting bioactive compounds in feed for monogastric animal species.

The fatty acid (FA) profile of oysters generally reflects the dietary FA composition. Moreover, incorporation of FA into tissues is modulated by various metabolic factors, and final composition will depend upon the dietary sources, cumulative intake, and oysters' development stage. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the impact of dietary incorporation of seaweed (SW) Ulva rigida, in replacement of traditional microalgae diet, on the FA composition of Pacific oysters Crassostrea gigas, during broodstock conditioning. The dietary conditioning consisted of direct replacement of microalgae (33% Tisochrysis lutea, 50.25% Skeletonema costatum, and 16.75% Chaetoceros calcitrans) by SW at four different substitution levels (0%, 25%, 50%, and 100% diet). The dietary docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) (22:6n‐3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) (20:5n‐3) contents showed a positive correlation with the dietary microalgae level. During the trial, oysters fed with higher percentages of microalgae revealed a depletion of DHA and accumulation of EPA. The 100% SW caused a significant reduction in oxygen consumption and, consequently, in the standard metabolic rate. Based on these results, a partial substitution of up to 25% of dietary microalgae seems to be a suitable alternative, because it elicited similar results to the commercial 100% microalgae diet.

The effect of including the premix extract of the brown Sargassum ilicifolium, Nizimuddinia zanardini, Cystoseira indica and Padina australis (MPE) macroalgae in the diet on the growth performance, survival, nutritional (chemical, amino acid and fatty acid compound) and phytochemical (sterol, phenol and avonoid),and antioxidant state (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX)) of whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) was investigated in this study, where in 1200 post larvae with an average weight of 57.530.47 mg were distributed randomly by categorizing 100 pieces into 4 groups (three tank iterations per group). The control group was only fed with the concentrated feed (MPE 0 ), while the other groups were fed with a basic diet that consisted of MPE 5 (MPE5), 10 (MPE 10 ) and 15 (MPE 15 ) g kg − 1 of feed for 8 weeks. According to the results, the highest FW, SGR, WG and PER were recorded for the MPE 15 group. The lowest FCR was observed in the group fed with MPE 15 (P < 0.05). The highest level of crude protein was recorded for the groups fed with MPE 10 and MPE 15 (P < 0.05). The highest amount of PUFA, total sterols, phenol, avonoid, GPX and CAT was observed in shrimps fed with MPE 15 . The results are generally indicative of the positive effect of the premix aqueous extract of the brown S. ilicifolium, N. zanardini, C. indica and P.australis macroalgae at the 15 g kg − 1 of MPE feed level on the growth, nutritional value and phytochemical, and antioxidant status of L. vannamei.
