The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of reduction of protein in diets for Nile tilapia by supplementation of synthetic amino acids on performance, digestibility and diameter of muscle fiber of Nile tilapias. The amino acids (lysine, methionine, threonine and arginine) were supplemented to keep the profile of amino acids in the reference diet. It was used 160 fish with initial live weight of 105.7 ± 2.5 g, distributed in 16 tanks (1 m3 each tank) fed […]

This trial was carried out to evaluate the effects of ideal protein concept on reduction of dietary protein content for Nile tilapia (5 to 125 g). A hundred and sixty juvenile fishes (4.40 ± 0.9 g) were assigned to a randomized experimental design with four treatments [25.5, 27, 28.5 and 30% (control) of digestible protein], three replicates and ten fish by experimental unit. Crystalline amino acids were added to maintain amino acid levels according to the ideal protein concept. The […]
