Compostion and morphology of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) as affected by dietary oil
A feeding experiment was conducted to examine the effect of diets high or low in rapeseed and additionally the effect of protein supplementation of diets rich in rapeseed oil in feed for farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.). The aim was to investigate the impact on growth performance, slaughter p...

On the other hand, n-6 fatty acids and C18 fatty acids, such as 18:1n-9 and 18:2n-6 were presented in a higher amount in the Control group. Consequently, the n-3/n-6 fatty acids ratio was higher in the Marine+ group and fish in the Control group had the lower ratio. In conclusion, the present study suggests that addition of 2% extra protein from fish skin to salmon diets rich in rapeseed oil is beneficial in terms of stimulating muscle growth and counteracting fat accumulation cost by high levels of rapeseed oil.
