    Notes: Model amphiphiles consisting of lines of Lennard-Jones (LJ) centers are investigated to determine the effect of pressure and molecular geometry on ground-state tilting behavior. Both the amphiphile length and the intramolecular distance between LJ centers is varied. The results give guidelines for understanding and controlling tilting behavior in monolayer films. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Fish growth is manifested by a number of measurable physical changes. We have developed a sensitive method for monitoring the growth rate of fish fed at four different planes of nutrition. This technique consists in measuring expression levels of myosin RNA isolated from the muscle of experimental animals. Using PCR (polymerase chain reaction) primers, and a fluorescence-labelled single-stranded DNA probe that hybridizes specifically to a region within the myosin mRNA of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum), we were able to detect differences in the relative level of myosin expression between groups of fish. This method also allows for the determination of absolute expression levels when reactions are performed with standards consisting of known levels of in vitro-transcribed myosin RNA. With the proper equipment, this novel procedure can be performed rapidly on large numbers of individuals, and with the procurement of non-invasive muscle biopsies the same experimental animal could theoretically be sampled multiple times throughout the course of the study. This new method could be used to measure differences in muscle synthesis in fish associated with various nutrient intake levels, environmental parameters, life-history stages and health status.

    Notes: The apparent digestibilities (availabilities) of dry matter, protein, phosphorus and selected minerals in fish and animal by-products were determined using rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum). Blood meal (ring-dried), feather meal and deboned fish meal had relatively high concentrations of protein, low concentrations of phosphorus and many minerals, and high digestibilities (availabilities) of these nutrients. Other animal by-products, however, had high concentrations of minerals, including phosphorus, which are associated with the bone fraction. Availabilities of manganese and zinc in the diet were reduced by the inclusion of high-ash animal by-products in the diet, whereas availabilities of potassium, sodium and copper were relatively unaffected. Dietary concentrations of bone minerals (calcium, phosphorus) and ash were inversely correlated with availabilities (% of intake) of most minerals except copper in the diet. Also, dietary concentrations of bone minerals correlated inversely with the net absorption (mg g−1 diet) of zinc, manganese and magnesium in the diet. When rainbow trout were fed diets containing incremental concentrations of fish bones, the apparent availabilities of phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and iron decreased as fish bone content in the diet increased. Reducing the bone fraction of high-ash (high-phosphorus) by-product meals is therefore an essential approach to using such ingredients in low-pollution fish feeds.

    Notes: Soy and rapeseed protein concentrates (SPC and RPC) were evaluated as fish meal substitutes in gilthead seabream Sparus aurata L. diets. The protein concentrates were used to replace 30%, 60% and 100% fish meal, and effects on feed intake, weight gain and feed gain ratio were determined in a 56-day growth trial. Some groups were then grown beyond 56 days, until all reached an average weight of 50 g. A comparison of body composition at 50 g showed no significant differences in protein and ash content among all fish, while lipid and energy contents were different. The 100% RPC and 60% and 100% SPC replacement diets had lower body lipid and energy contents compared with those of the control diet. Feed intake and weight gains were inversely related to inclusion levels of plant proteins. Feed intake dropped to 52–72% of that of the control treatment and weight gain to 46–61%. Energy retention followed this same trend, decreasing from ERV values of 53 to 44 with an increase in dietary plant protein content. With the exception of 100% SPC substitution (PPV = 35), protein retention among treatments was similar (PPV = 37–39). These results suggest that both SPC and RPC may be promising protein sources for inclusion in seabream diets. The relative palatability of these plant proteins could be a limiting factor in their use.

    Notes: Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of supplementing methionine hydroxy analogue (MHA) on the performance, body composition, and nutrition retention of rainbow trout. In experiment 1, a 2×4 factorial arrangement with two MHA supplemental levels (with and without) and four fish meal replacement levels (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%, replaced with soybean meal (SBM) and wheat gluten) was used. A fish meal diet was included as a control. Results showed that fish meal replacement levels had significant effects on fish weight gain (WG), feed conversion ratio (FCR), body moisture, crude protein, crude fat, and ash (P〈0.05). In experiment 2, a fish meal reference diet and seven other diets were made using SBM and distiller's dried grain with solubles supplemented with 0, 0, 0.55, 1.1, 1.65, 2.2, and 2.75 g MHA kg−1 diet to replace 50% of fish meal. WG, FCR, and apparent retention of crude protein and phosphorus were significantly improved in rainbow trout fed the diet containing 1.65 g MHA kg−1 diet compared with fish fed an equivalent diet without MHA.

    Notes: Twenty-two samples of commercial fish meals from Norway, Chile and Peru were analysed for cholesterol and oxysterols using gas chromatography. Cholesterol content ranged from 25.2 to 64.8 g kg−1 total lipids. Detectable levels of the oxysterols 7β-hydroxycholesterol and 7-ketocholesterol were found and their identity was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Samples of fish meal exhibited wide variability in oxysterols content, 7β-hydroxycholesterol ranging from 3.9 to 105.6 mg kg−1 total lipids (0.4–9.4 mg kg−1 dry matter) and 7-ketocholesterol from 2.0 to 56.2 mg kg−1 total lipids (0.2–5.0 mg kg−1 dry matter). The formation of 7β-hydroxycholesterol and 7-ketocholesterol in one sample of Norse LT94 fish meal stored at room temperature was also studied. Oxysterol content increased during the first 42 days of storage by about 350% and then decreased with further storage. The low amount of oxysterols measured indicates a limited degree of cholesterol oxidation in commercially available fish meals.

    Notes: Summary. Samples of the fish species Argentina silus (Ascanius) have been studied for utilization as a food fish and also for the production of fish meal. the flesh was found very acceptable by taste panels, but because of its unsaturated oil content, rancidity would occur during long-term storage unless precautions were taken to reduce this spoilage.The lipid content and composition of this fish together with the amino acid composition has been measured. the results indicate that fish meal produced from it would be nutritious and have a relatively high oil content, if the fish was not processed as a fatty fish.

    Notes: Proximate analyses and determinations of mean lipid unsaturation have been performed on monthly samples of Scomber scombrus (L) caught off the Cornish coast throughout a period of one year (December 1968-November 1969). Maximum and minimum total-lipid levels were recorded in December and June respectively. The highest mean lipid unsaturation levels were recorded in November and the lowest in May. An inverse linear relationship between lipid and water content with protein level remaining substantially constant was observed. Biometric data were collected on samples of June and December fish and detailed lipid analysis performed on the flesh, liver and gonad. Prominent features of the data are discussed and some comment made on the nature and functions of lipids in fish.

    Notes: Phosphorus (P) is an essential component of fish diets. Its deficiency affects not only hard tissues, where it is responsible for rickets, leading to skeletal malformation, but also influences various aspects of intermediary metabolism, and thus growth and feed conversion. Therefore, optimizing the dietary inclusion level is critical at all times. As the aquaculture industry has expanded, so the effects of P in farm effluents, derived from metabolic and uneaten food sources, have also become recognized. Diets are increasingly formulated on a basis that will not only provide adequate P for fish needs, but also endeavour to ensure minimal acceptable P levels in effluents at the same time. Many variables influence P requirements and P availability in fish diets, so it is inadvisable to feed diets formulated to an assumed minimum dietary requirement level, irrespective of the advantages that such a formulation may provide to environmental impact.

    Notes: Investigation of cranial and spinal deformities in Atlantic salmon smolts from Chile immediately after sea transfer, over two successive crops, demonstrated ankylosis of the mandibular articulation, spinal foreshortening, fracture of vertebrae and rarefaction of osseous and cartilaginous tissues including the operculum. As a result the mouth was permanently agape and opercula could be folded back on themselves. All affected fish had been transferred to sea water at 20 °C plus and fed on particular commercial diets. Fish in cooler areas, or on diets high in vitamin C and phosphorus in the high temperature zone, were clinically normal. The condition has not recurred following dietary adjustment.
