Fat deposition and flesh quality in seawater reared, triploid brown trout (Salmo trutta) as affected by dietary fat levels and starvation

Abstract: Three isoproteic (crude protein content : 56%) diets with different fat levels (11, 20 and 26 %) were fed to triplicate groups of triploid brown trout (initial average body weight of 1.5 kg), reared in seawater. At the end of three months of feeding, fish fed the high-fat diet were split into two groups : a triplicate group of fish received the low-fat diet and another triplicate group was kept unfed for a further two month period. Fish initially fed the low-fat diet during the first period were continued to b… Show more

“…In the present study, brown trout demonstrated better growth performance when compared to observations previously reported for this species (Arzel et al, 1994;Pirhonen and Forsman, 1998;Johnsson et al, 2000;Regost et al, 2001;Turchini et al, 2003). However, smaller fish in size were used in the present study.…”

“…Evidence for quality benefits from prolonged fasting is weak and mixed. Trials with brown trout have indicated that prolonged pre-harvest fasting can slightly improve the flesh colour, but this is at the expense of weight loss and fillet yield (Regost et al 2001). Work with sea bream has found a measurable but possibly insignificant increase in muscle firmness but a decrease in the shelf life (Ginés et al 2002;Á lvarez et al 2008).…”

“…In some cases, short-time fasting improves the texture, producing a firmer muscle [9], while in other cases reduction of feeding or prolonged starvation results in reduced firmness and increase of moistness and sweating of muscle [2,24]. Besides the dietary effects, rearing temperatures have been found to affect textural characteristics, with softer and less elastic flesh observed for fish reared at lower temperatures [50].…”
