The aim of this trial was to evaluate the effect of dietary nucleic acids on ureagenesis and nitrogen balance in gilthead sea bream juveniles. For that purpose, 5 isonitrogenous (7.25% N) diets were formulated based on fish meal as protein source (FM-control diet) and to partially replace the fish meal nitrogen with two levels of nucleic acids (diets RNA1 and RNA2) or brewers yeast (diets BY1 and BY2). Each diet was fed for 10 weeks, to apparent visual satiety, to triplicate groups of 50 fish each with an average body weight of 12.7 g. Inclusion of nucleic acid N either as brewers yeast or RNA led to significant improvement of feed intake and growth, except for fish fed diet RNA2. There were no differences in final weight between groups fed the yeast-... |

The role of dietary arginine in affecting nitrogen utilisation and excretion was studied in juvenile European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) fed for 72 days with diets differing in protein sources (plant protein-based (PM) and fish-meal-based (FM)). Fish growth performance and nitrogen utilisation revealed that dietary Arg surplus was beneficial only in PM diets. Dietary Arg level significantly affected postprandial plasma urea concentrations. Hepatic arginase activity increased (P < 0.05) in response to dietary Arg surplus in fish fed plant protein diets; conversely ornithine transcarbamylase activity was very low and inversely related to arginine intake. No hepatic carbamoyl phosphate synthetase III activity was detected. Dietary arginine levels did... |
