Dietary lipid requirement of grouper, Epinephelus malabaricus, and effects on immune responses

A growth trial was conducted to determine the dietary lipid requirement and its effects on immune responses of juvenile grouper. Purified diets with five dietary lipid levels (0%, 4%, 8%, 12% and 16%; fish oil/corn oil=1:1) were each fed to triplicate groups of grouper (mean initial weight: 4.43±0.0...

Zusammenfassung:A growth trial was conducted to determine the dietary lipid requirement and its effects on immune responses of juvenile grouper. Purified diets with five dietary lipid levels (0%, 4%, 8%, 12% and 16%; fish oil/corn oil=1:1) were each fed to triplicate groups of grouper (mean initial weight: 4.43±0.07 g) in a recirculating rearing system maintained at 29±1 °C for 8 weeks. Weight gain was highest ( P
