Popis: | The addition of pure carotenoids is a common practice in some aquaculture species production since its use in fish feed is known to improve carcass and antioxidant capacity. Spirulina (Arthrospira) cyanobacteria are a rich source of carotenoids that has proven health benefits for fish welfare. In the current experiment, four isonitrogenous (38%) isolipidic (9%) diets were made, including a control diet (free of β-carotene and Spirulina, SP0), β-carotene diet (50 mg kg−1, β0), and two Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) diets with 2% (SP2) and 4% (SP4) of total feed inclusion. The experimental diets were given to juvenile mullets in a controlled recirculation system. The parameters evaluated were growth, colour, total carotene content of muscle, and antioxidant capacity of the liver and muscle. Significant differences were found (p |
