“…Efficiency of delivery can be markedly improved by encapsulating the nutrient in hydrophobic carriers such as wax spray beads before being added to the enrichment of live prey such as rotifers and Artemia (Hawkyard et al, 2011;Langdon et al, 2008). Doing so allowed Hawkyard et al (2014) to reduce by 80-times the amount of taurine required to achieve the same level of live prey enrichment compared to a traditional enrichment bath method, while maintaining larval growth and…”

Taurine: a critical nutrient for future fish feeds

Taurine is a sulfonic acid found in high concentrations in animal tissues. In recent years, a number of studies have demonstrated the essentiality of dietary taurine for many commercially relevant species, especially marine teleosts. Consequently, the removal of taurine-rich dietary ingredients such as fishmeal may create a deficiency, of which symptoms include reduced growth and survival, increased susceptibility to diseases, and impaired larval development. These symptoms emphasize the systemic role of taurine in the animal's physiology and provide few clues as to the underlying mechanisms of taurine function. In fact, a myriad of roles have been attributed to taurine in mammals, ranging from bile salt conjugation to membrane stabilization, osmoregulation, anti-oxidation, immunomodulation, calcium-signaling, and neuroprotection. This review describes the current knowledge of taurine physiology and metabolism in fish and requirement levels in relevant species, and highlights possible parallels with mammalian taurine metabolism. In addition, the effects of ingredient processing and feed manufacturing on taurine bioavailability are discussed. Finally, regulatory aspects are brought to the forefront: although the supplementation of taurine will be necessary to further reduce the use of ingredients such as fishmeal, taurine is not currently approved by the FDA in the USA for fish feeds.Obtaining approval in the United States to utilize taurine in fish feeds can improve the environmental and economic sustainability of fish feeds nation-wide.

“…The production of high nutritional level live feeds may be of crucial importance in aquaculture to obtain optimal growth rates, decrease skeletal deformities and to keep the fish stock in adequate health condition (Hawkyard et al, 2011;Penglase et al, 2010;Rainuzzo et al, 1997;Ribeiro et al, 2009). Zooplankton in the wild contains minerals in a higher concentration than the usually fed newly hatched Artemia nauplii (Fujita, 1972;Watanabe et al, 1978).…”

“…Artemia enriched with iodine impart thyroid-mediated advantages to developing fish (Hawkyard et al, 2011). Further complicating the endocrine implications of aquaculture feeds is the confirmation that Artemia synthesize and store both T 4 and T 3 (see Hawkyard et al, 2011). Fishmeal-based aquaculture diets also contain T 4 , MATERNAL THYROID AND GLUCOCORTICOID HORMONE INTERACTIONS IN LARVAL FISH 213 among other hormones (Feist and Schreck, 1990).…”
