“…The supply of adequate levels of amino acids with a balanced profile through feeding is essential for their maximal accretion and growth in fish subsequently (El-Mowafi et al, 2010). The quantitative EAA amounts (Table 1) in the commercial feeds in the current study meet dietary requirements of many cultured carnivorous fish species (Ogino, 1980;Moon and Gatlin, 1991;Alam et al, 2002;NRC, 2011) as shown in Table 2.…”

“…The requirements for all 10 EAA have been determined for several commercially important species such as rainbow trout, channel catfish, blue tilapia, common carp, milkfish, red drum and yellowtail (Ogino, 1980;Moon & Gatlin, 1991;Alam et al, 2002;NRC, 2011) but are still not clear for sea bream and sea bass (NRC, 2011). Sea bream and sea bass require the same EAA like other fishes, and data available for other species having similar food habits and ecological requirement may be used as standards.…”

This study determined the influence of marine fish feeds on the amino acid (AA) composition in fillet of sea bream and sea bass at different seasons. AA profile of cultured fish fillets mirrored dietary amino acids (correlation ranged from 0.77 to 0.91). Slight variations (P>0.05) existed in protein and AA profiles in cultured and wild sea bream and sea bass. Main essential amino acids (EAA) were arginine, leucine and lysine while alanine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid and glycine were the main non-essential amino acids (NEAA) for both winter and summer in fish fillets. EAA/NEAA ratio ranged from 0.96 to 1.10 and 1.02 to 1.08 in summer and winter respectively for cultured and wild sea bream. In sea bass, the range was from 0.90 to 1.16 in summer and from 0.96 to 1.19 in winter. The study revealed that the EAA composition of fish fillets was affected by feeds and seasons (P<0.05). EAA/NEAA ratios indicated that both captured and cultured sea bream and sea bass fillets are sources of well-balanced protein and/or AA in all seasons for humans.

“…A basic pattern of amino acid balance has been maintained over evolutionary time, although concentrations of proline (linked to the formation of collagen) and serine (associated with enzyme activity) have generally increased, and alanine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine decreased (Sorimachi 1999, Sorimachi et al 2000. Various studies have shown only small variability in the EAA composition of animals subjected to variable diets, e.g., parisitoid wasps (Barrett and Schmidt 1991), copepods (Helland et al 2003), rotifers (Øie and Olsen 1997), prawns (Tidwell et al 1998), rainbow trout (Yamamoto et al 2000) and Japanese flounder (Alam et al 2002). Larger variation in EAA in response to diet has however been observed in other cases, e.g., copepod eggs (Guisande et al 1999) and tilapia (Gunasekera et al 1996).…”

Abstract. Ecological stoichiometry is a useful tool for studying how the elemental composition of organisms and their food affects production, nutrient cycling, and foodweb dynamics. Two analyses are presented here that show that the use of simple element ratios in stoichiometric calculations may in certain circumstances prove inadequate because of the influence in animal nutrition of biochemical aspects of diet. In the first, a stoichiometric analysis of herbivores consuming food with varying carbon to nitrogen (C:N) ratios is undertaken, in which the intake of C is segregated into easily assimilated compounds and fiber. Two herbivore strategies emerge from the analysis, both as a means of minimizing limitation by C, not N: fiber eaters that consume high C:N food and have efficient fiber digestion, and selective feeders that consume low C:N food but that do not possess fiberdigesting enzymes. In the second example, the stoichiometric axiom that a single substrate, the one in least supply relative to demand, limits growth is used to identify potentially limiting essential amino acids in the diets of a range of animals. Large consumer-prey imbalances in amino acids were found in several cases, indicating that, at least in theory, growth should be strongly limited by individual amino acids rather than bulk N. In practice such limitation may be offset in consumers by physiological and other factors such as symbiotic relationships. The two analyses emphasize the simplicity of element stoichiometry, highlighting the need to consider biochemical and physiological arguments when undertaking stoichiometric studies of carbon and nutrient transfers in ecosystems.

“…Forster and Ogara (1998) have done some work on lysine requirements. In a previous study, we investigated the relationship between the growth performance and dietary amino acid patterns of the Japanese flounder (Alam et al 2002a) and kuruma shrimp Marsupenaeus japonicus (Alam et al 2002b), according to a similar concept of Wilson (1991).…”

Four semi-purified diets, containing crystalline amino acids (CAAs), were fed to juvenile red sea bream, Pagrus major in order to ascertain the ideal dietary amino acid pattern for this species. A control diet containing 50% casein-gelatin as protein sources, but no CAAs were fed to the fish. The other diets contained 30% casein-gelatin and 20% CAAs. CAAs were added to diets to simulate with amino acid pattern of the red sea bream eggs protein (REP), red sea bream larvae whole body protein (RLP), red sea bream juvenile whole body protein (RJP), and brown fishmeal protein (BFP). The juveniles (average initial body weight, 1.58 ± 0.01 g) were maintained in triplicate tanks and fed twice daily for 30 days. The highest weight gain was observed in juveniles fed the RJP diet. No significant difference was observed in juveniles fed the RLP and BFP diet. Feed efficiency ratio, protein efficiency ratio and amino acid retention in the whole body were significantly (p < 0.05) affected by the simulated dietary amino acid patterns. The essential amino acid profile and A/E ratios of the whole body after the growth trial showed little difference among the dietary treatments. The results suggest that red sea bream juveniles are able to utilize high amounts of CAA in coated form. The amino acid pattern of RJP could be used as an appropriate of reference dietary amino acid for this species.
