Salmonids on Insect Protein – Impact on Performance and Health
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In order to find out whether insects are suitable as a pure protein source and what potential problems or benefits can be expected, a 10-week feeding experiment was set up. In this experiment, the overall protein content were identical, while the protein content from soy and fishmeal was replaced with 25, 50, 75 and 100% insect meal. In order to evaluate the effect of the insect protein on the fish, fish size and weight were determined at the beginning and end of the experiment, and transcriptomic analyses of proximal intestine were performed. Finally, samples of the liver and intestine were examined histologically.
