| Summary: | 100% of the fishmeal on an equal-protein basis. Each diet Amino acid analysis of the extracted protein indicated a anhydrous ammonia under high pressure at 70 C, a process Apparent protein and organic matter digestibility of the appear warranted. Bermuda grass for channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus). The catfish. Apparent protein and organic matter digestibility channel catfish diets. Further research to evaluate coastal Bermuda grass was treated by soaking in liquid coefficients of the extract were 85 and 89%, respectively. control diet contained 10% menhaden fishmeal and experimental diets were formulated so that the extract replaced 33, 66 and evaluate the suitability of a protein extract from coastal extract also was determined utilizing chromic oxide as an extraction, isoelectric precipitation and centrifugation. fishmeal for aquaculture feeds, a study was conducted to generally balanced profile that was first limiting in In response to concerns over availability and cost of incremental levels of the extract were evaluated. The inert marker. Results of the feeding trial indicated that initially weighing approximately 10 g/fish for 9 weeks. intraperitoneal fat or hepatosomatic index of channel known as Ammonia Fiber Explosion (AFEX), followed by alkaline methionine. A laboratory feeding trial was conducted in protein efficiency ratio, net protein utilization, significantly (P>0.05) affect weight gain, feed efficiency, substitution of other ingredients with the protein extract substitution of the extract at all levels did not These data indicate that the extract can replace fishmeal in was fed to triplicate groups of channel catfish fingerlings which four isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets containing |
