Effects of replacing fishmeal with dietary soybean protein concentrate (SPC) on growth, serum biochemical indices, and antioxidative functions for juvenile shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei

This experiment was conducted to assess the possibility of replacing fishmeal (FM) with Soybean Protein Concentrate (SPC) at different levels (Diet 1 (0%), Diet 2 (3.08%), Diet 3 (6.16%), Diet 4 (9.24%), Diet 5 (12.32%), Diet 6 (15.40%), Diet 7 (18.48%)) as well as its effects on growth, serum bioch...

Description
Summary:This experiment was conducted to assess the possibility of replacing fishmeal (FM) with Soybean Protein Concentrate (SPC) at different levels (Diet 1 (0%), Diet 2 (3.08%), Diet 3 (6.16%), Diet 4 (9.24%), Diet 5 (12.32%), Diet 6 (15.40%), Diet 7 (18.48%)) as well as its effects on growth, serum biochemical indices and antioxidant activities, body composition, histology, intestinal flora and disease resistance in Litopaeneaus vannamei. There were three replicates in each group in the experiment (Initial mean weight = 0.23 ± 0.00 g) and were fed their respective diets for 8 weeks. Growth performance in Diet 6 compared to the Diet 1, significantly increased (P
