EFFECT OF DIETARY VITAMIN E AND LIPIDS ON SOME IMMUNE PARAMETERS OF TURBOT (SCOPHTHALMUS MAXIMUS L.)
The effect of dietary vitamin E and dietary lipids on growth and immune parameters of juvenile turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) were investigated in a series of experiments. The aims of the studies were to maximise immune function through dietary modulation to counteract stress induced immunodepression...

The effect of dietary vitamin E and dietary lipids on growth and immune parameters of juvenile turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) were investigated in a series of experiments.
