Three studies were designed to evaluate the promoting
effect of cyclopropenoid fatty acids (CPFA) on avian myeloblastosis
virus (AMV) infection in White Leghorn chickens.
In the first study effects on growth parameters, blood serum
and erythrocyte lipid composition of White Leghorn chickens
were investigated at 100 ppm and 300 ppm...
Three studies were conducted to evaluate the relationship between
insulin and nutritional parameters in rainbow trout. In the first study
effects on growth parameters and tissue composition of rainbow trout were
investigated following injection of bovine insulin at two dose levels
every 48 hr for 56 days. In addition, [¹⁴C]-leucine...
The ingestion, uptake, and metabolism of liposomes by juvenile
Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) were studied by several methods in
an effort to assess their potential as encapsulating agents. Liposomes
composed of egg phosphatidylcholine-cholesterol-stearylamine (7:1:2)
formed readily and appeared stable in 20°/oo seawater. Radiotracer
studies with liposomes made with ¹⁴C-labeled cholesterol...
The effects of different dietary lipids on the growth, nutrition
and tissue lipid profiles of rainbow trout raised to market size on a
commercially available ration were examined. Rainbow trout of 80 g
mean initial weight were fed pellets prepared according to Oregon
Moist Pellet specifications for 20 weeks. Salmon...
