Effects of Sacharomyces cereviceae Incorporated Diet on Growth Performance, Apparent Digestibility Coefficient of Protein and Survival Rate of Catfish (Pangasius hypothalamus)

Abstract

A new culture system is introduced to maximize diet usage for growth of Catfish (Pangasius hypothalamus). The new culture system is by incorporating Saccharomyces cerevisiae into the feed. It aims to increase feed efficiency; in turn it increases the growth of fish. The objective of the research is to know the effects of S. cereviceae incorporated diet on growth performance, apparent digestibility coefficient of protein and survival rate of catfish (P. hypothalamus). The average wight of fish used in the study were 4.02 ± 0.22 g. The study used experimental method with completely random design, with 4 (four) treatments and each treatment had 4 (four) replications. The treatments were 4 different dosages of S. cerevisiae addition in the diet, i.e; 0 g per kg feed (A), 0.5 g per kg feed (B), 1 g per kg feed (C) and 2 g per kg feed (D). The results show that the incorporated of S. cerevisiae in feed has significant effect (P<0.05) on the specific growth rate (SGR), apparent digestibility coefficient of protein (ADC P) and survival rate (SR) of the catfish (P. hypothalamus) fingerlings. The optimum dosages of S. cerevisiae for SGR, ADC P and SR of the Catfish (P. hypothalamus) fingerlings ranged from 1 to 1.08 g/kg feed.

Effects of Yeast on the Growth Performance of Sangkuriang Catfish Fingerlings (Clarias gariepinus var. Sangkuriang)

“…Some studies on the effect yeast (S. cerevisiae) on freshwater and marine fish have been done, such as in Barbonymus gonionotus (Rachmawati et al, 2019a), Cyprinus carpio (Al-Refaiee et al, 2016), Oreochromis niloticus (de Azevedo et al, 2016), Pangasius hypothalamus (Rachmawati et al, 2019b), Labeo rohita (Tewary & Patra, 2011), and Sarotherodon galileaus (Abdel-Tawwab et al, 2010). However, there is a lack of information about the effect of yeast (S. cerevisiae) to enhance commercial feed by increasing feed efficiency and growth of Sangkuriang catfish fingerlings.…”

Effects of Various Doses of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on the Growth, Survival Rate, and Blood Profile of Saline Red Tilapia (Oreochromisspp.) in the Semi-Intensive Culture Conditions

“…The water quality was evaluated based on the previous method by Rachmawati et al (2019a). The observation of the water quality included physical and chemical characteristics of the water.…”

“…In addition, the supplementation of S. cerevisiae in the feed could increase the growth, immune system, and disease resistance of Oncorhynchus mykiss. Rachmawati et al (2019a) andRahmawati et al (2019b) also reported that the S. cerevisiae-supplemented feed could increase growths and survival rates of Pangasius hypothalamus and Barbonymus gonionotus. Abdel-Tawwab et al (2010), Abu-Elala et al (2013, and Manoppo and Kolopita (2016) suggested that the S. cerevisiae-supplemented feed can boost non-specific immune response and growth of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).…”

“…S. cerevisiae has higher amino acid contents, such as methionine and cysteine, which could enhance the immune response in several fish (Agboola et al, 2021). In addition, Saccharomyces cerevisiae can increase growth (Rawung & Manoppo, 2014), enzyme activities in the digestive system (Tewary & Patra, 2011), feed and protein digestibility to improve feed efficiency (Manoppo & Kolopita, 2015), protein digestibility, the efficiency of feed utilization and growth (Rachmawati et al, 2019a;Rachmawati et al, 2019b) and disease resistance of the fish (Sheikhzadeh et al, 2012). Moreover, S. cerevisiae can produce peptidase, protease, and amylase, and the availability of these enzymes in the fish's digestive system can raise enzyme activities.…”

Efektivitas Penambahan Ragi Roti (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) pada Pakan Buatan Ikan Tawes (Puntius javanicus) Terhadap Laju Pertumbuhan, Efisiensi Pemanfaatan Pakan dan Kelulushidupan

“…Penelitian tentang penambahan ragi roti (S. cerevisiae) pada beberapa spesies ikan antara lain: ikan kerapu (Bugis dan Henky, 2014); Oreochromis niloticus (Rahman et al, 2017); Cyprinus carpio (Al-Refaiee et al, 2016); dan Pangasius hypothalamus (Rachmawati et al, 2019). Menurut Bugis dan Henky (2014), ragi roti merupakan bahan yang mengandung nukleotida yang tinggi sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai pengganti nukleotida murni.…”
