RESUMO. Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo determinar os melhores níveis dietários de vitamina E e de selênio para pós-larvas do camarão amazônico, Macrobrachium amazonicum (Crustacea). Nesse sentido, pós-larvas com peso médio de 280mg e comprimento médio de 20,60mm foram mantidas em 28 aquários de 12L dotados de sistema de recirculação de água e de controle automático de temperatura, submetidas à esquema fatorial 3x2, em um delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com 1 tratamento adicional, totalizando 4 repetições por tratamento. As pós-larvas foram alimentadas com rações purificadas à base de albumina e de gelatina, contendo 3 níveis de vitamina E (100mg/kg, 200mg/kg e 400,00mg/kg), 2 níveis de selênio (0,50mg/kg e 1mg/kg) e 1 tratamento adicional (sem suplementação de selênio e de vitamina E). Após 30 dias, avaliou-se o ganho de peso, a conversão alimentar aparente, a taxa de sobrevivência e a concentração de selênio no filé. Observou-se que: 200mg de vitamina E/kg e 0,50mg de selênio/kg proporcionam melhores respostas de ganho de peso e de conversão alimentar aparente; 100mg de vitamina E/kg e 0,50mg de selênio/kg proporcionam melhor taxa de sobrevivência e, 200mg de vitamina E/kg e 1mg de selênio/kg proporcionam maior concentração de selênio no filé. Com base nesses resultados, recomenda-se 200mg de vitamina E/kg e 0,50mg de selênio/kg de ração, na alimentação de pós-larvas de camarão amazônico, de modo a proporcionar melhores resultados quanto ao desempenho produtivo.Palavras-chave: camarão amazônico, antioxidantes, vitamina, mineral, dieta purificada, desempenho.ABSTRACT. Dietary level of vitamin E and selenium on diets for post larvae of Macrobrachium amazonicum. The objective of this study was to determine the best dietary level of vitamin E and selenium on diets for Amazon prawn, Macrobrachium amazonicum (Crustacea). Thus, post-larvae of 280mg average weight and 20.60mm average length were kept in 28 aquaria (12.00L) supplied with water. They were maintained in automatic control of temperature, in a completely randomized factorial experiment 3x2 design, plus an additional treatment, with four replications each treatment. The post-larvae were fed with purified diets supplemented with three vitamin E levels (100.00; 200.00 and 400.00mg/kg), two levels of selenium (0.50 and 1.00mg/kg) and an additional treatment (without vitamin E and selenium supplementation). After 30 days, the weight gain, apparent feed conversion, survival rate and muscle selenium concentration were evaluated. results indicated that diets supplemented with 200.00mg of vitamin E/kg and 0.50 selenium/kg provided the best weight gain and apparent feed conversion; 100.00mg of vitamin E/kg and 0.50mg of selenium/kg supplementation provided the best survival rate; and diets supplemented with 200.00mg of vitamin E/kg and 1.00mg of selenium/kg determined the highest muscle selenium concentration. The results indicated that diets supplemented with 200.00mg of vitamin E/kg and 0.50 selenium/kg can be recommended in diets to post larvae of Amazon pr...
