Effect of dietary inclusion of camelina or chia oil on fatty acid digestibility, histology, blood biochemistry and molecular biomarkers in juvenile gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata, L.)
Abstract:The present study evaluated fatty acid digestibility, histology, blood biochemistry and gene expression in the gut of juvenile gilthead sea bream, Sparus aurata (initial mean weight, 60.4 ± 4.9 g) fed with iso-proteic (48%) and iso-lipidic (20.7%) diets in which fish oil was partially (60%) or totally (100%) replaced with either camelina or chia oil. Each of the experimental diets was fed to triplicate groups of fish stocked at 10 fish/tank in 150 L tanks for 90 days. Although inclusion of camelina or chia oil… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
