Quality and metabolic implications of including anchovy oil or a blend of herring oil, n-3 PUFA [polyunsaturated fatty acids] concentrate and palm stearin in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) diets

The effect of feeding Atlantic salmon with two fat sources containing similar concentration of saturated (SAFA), monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated (PUFA), but different fatty acid composition, on growth, digestibility, fillet quality and lipid metabolism was studied. Two extruded diets with...

Description
Summary:The effect of feeding Atlantic salmon with two fat sources containing similar concentration of saturated (SAFA), monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated (PUFA), but different fatty acid composition, on growth, digestibility, fillet quality and lipid metabolism was studied. Two extruded diets with the same basal composition but coated with herring oil supplemented with palm stearin and n-3 fatty acid concentrate (HO+ diet) or with pure anchovy oil (AO diet) were fed to Atlantic salmon with an average weight of 1.9 kg for 24 weeks. A better growth was reported in fish fed the AO diet (P Se alimentaron salmones atlánticos de 1,9 kg de peso inicial durante 24 semanas con dos tipos distintos de grasa. Por un lado se utilizó una mezcla de aceite de arenque, estearina de palma, y un concentrado de n-3 (HO+) y por otro aceite puro de anchoa (AO), que contenían la misma concentración de ácidos grasos saturados SAFA, monoinsaturados MUFA y poliinsaturados PUFA, pero con un perfil de ácidos grasos distinto, para así evaluar su efecto sobre la composición de ácidos grasos en el músculo, el crecimiento, la digestibilidad y el metabolismo de la grasa. Los salmones atlánticos alimentados con AO mostraron un mejor crecimiento (P
