Project description:Farmed Atlantic salmon was given either a 6 % cellulose diet, a diet containing 6 % shrimp shell chitin or a diet containing 6 % chitin from black soldier fly larvae for a period of 4 weeks. The fish were split into six tanks at the beginning of the experiment; six fish per tank and two tanks per diet. RNA from stomach and pyloric caeca from four fish given each diet was sequenced.
Project description:This study was designed to address key questions concerning the use of alternative protein sources for animal feeds and addresses aspects such as their nutrient composition and impact on gut function. The transcriptional response of intestinal mucosal tissue (jejunum and ileum) served as parameters for the local response. Growing pigs (BW 35 kg/approx. 10 weeks) were fed with experimental diets containing a single, common or new protein sources viz. soybean meal (SBM), black soldier fly larvae (BSF), spray dried blood plasma (SDPP), rapeseed meal (RSM), and wheat gluten meal (WGM) over a period of 4 weeks.
