HAVBRUKS-Havbruk - en næring i vekst

Nutrient requirements of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) larvae at first-feeding

Intensively cultured cod larvae, which are fed rotifers and formulated feed, grow slower and develop more deformities than larvae cultured semi-extensively with the natural diet, copepods. This shows that the present knowledge is insufficient for optimal intensive juvenile production. Suboptimal ...

HAVBRUKS-Havbruk - en næring i vekst

ONTOGENY OF LIPID DIGESTION AND EFFECTS OF FEEDING PRE-DIGESTED LIPIDS TO ATLANTIC COD (GADUS MORHUA) LARVAE

Lipids provide cod larvae with energy and essential fatty acids, the latter being structural components of biological membranes and precursors for the eicosanoids; signalling molecules which participate in regulation of a range of biological processes. Un til now, research on dietary lipids for m...

HAVBRUKS-Havbruk - en næring i vekst

Use of lipid spray beads for enrichment of live feeds for rearing marine fish larvae

Through the Leif Eriksson mobility programme the research council have granted Chris Langdon from Oregon State University money to cover travel and living expenses for his 6 month stay at NIFES from april to september 2006. Several micro nutrients have been shown to be present in lower concetra...

IS-BILAT-Mobilitet Norge-USA /Canada

Learning and evaluating production processes of artificial diets for the implementation on Norwegian aquaculture species as cod and halibut.

A large effort has been made world wide to culture marine species for aquaculture. Live feed production is a significant cost for the Norwegian halibut and cod farming, but one has not succeeded replacing live feed with a formulated diet. The lack of a w ell functional formulated diet for marine...

MAT-Næringsmidler

Syntetiske antioksidanter i fôr og fisk

Sammendrag Syntetiske antioksidanter i fôr og mat er tilsetningsstoffer som øker produktets holdbarhet. I Norge er slike midler forbudt å bruke med mindre de står på listen over godkjente tilsetningsstoff. Også for anvendelse i fiskefôr er bruken regulert . I mat er kun BHT (E320) og BHA (E321) t...
