“…A substituição da farinha de peixe ou outra fonte nutricional de proteínas, como por exemplo o farelo de soja, por Spirulina na mesma proporção, como alimento funcional foi considerado por apresentarem propriedades bioativas, com o objetivo principal de melhorar a saúde, a qualidade e a resistência dos peixes. Por tanto, é notável que o uso de Spirulina em dietas para aquicultura tenha sido amplamente estudado, principalmente na última década (ROSAS, et al, 2019). A figura 2 mostra um cultivo em reatores da microalga Spirulina máxima sendo realizado para a produção de ração suplementada com a biomassa para ser utilizada na alimentação de alevinos.…”

“…In other studies, spirulina meal was treated as a dietary protein source to substitute fishmeal or other protein sources due to its high protein content and the inclusion level was higher. Considering the nutritional properties of Spirulina, practicability analysis of spirulina meal in aquaculture feeds has been well documented in some descriptive reviews [5,[15][16][17][18][19][20], but they converged on compiling different results from all possible relevant studies. No quantitative reviews regarding the pertinent topics have been reported.…”

The application potential of spirulina meal in aquaculture feeds has been well summarized in several descriptive reviews. Nevertheless, they converged on compiling results from all possible relevant studies. Little available quantitative analysis regarding the pertinent topics has been reported. This quantitative meta-analysis was performed to investigate the influences of dietary spirulina meal (SPM) addition on responsive variables in aquaculture animals, including final body weight (FBW), specific growth rate (SGR), feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein efficiency ratio (PER), condition factor (CF), and hepatosomatic index (HSI). The pooled standardized mean difference (Hedges’ g ) and 95% confidence limit were computed to quantify the primary outcomes based on random-effects model. The sensitivity and subgroup analyses were carried out to evaluate the validity of the pooled effect size. The meta-regression analysis was conducted to investigate the optimal inclusion of SPM as a feed supplement and the upper threshold of SPM usage for substituting fishmeal in aquaculture animals. The results indicated that on the whole, dietary SPM addition significantly improved FBW, SGR, and PER; statistically decreased FCR of animals; had no significant influence on CF and HSI. The growth-enhancing effect of SPM inclusion in the form of feed additive was significant; however, the effect was indistinctive in the form of feedstuff. Furthermore, the meta-regression analysis displayed that the optimal levels of SPM as a feed supplement in fish and shrimp diets were 1.46%-2.26% and 1.67%, respectively. Additionally, up to 22.03%-24.53% and 14.95%-24.85% of SPM as fishmeal substitute did not have a negative effect on growth and feed utilization in fish and shrimp, respectively. Therefore, SPM is a promising fishmeal substitute and a growth-promoting feed additive for sustainable aquaculture of fish and shrimp.

“…Likewise, carotenoids are commercially available in several forms including mainly beta-carotene, lutein, lycopene, astaxanthin, zeaxanthin (Mehta et al,2018 ; da Silva Ferreira and Sant'Anna 2017). Moreover, the addition of pure carotenoids is a common practice as sh feed for some aquaculture species since it is known to improve carcass and antioxidant capacity (Rosas et al 2019).…”

This paper aims to study a new growth media using cheese whey and drainage water from agriculture for indigenous microalgae cultivation for value-added product generation. In this context, four combinations are studied beside the BG11 as reference, where BG11/Cheese whey (60/40, %v/v), drainage water 100%, drainage water/Cheese whey (60/40, % v/v), and Cheese whey 100 % have been used. Moreover, investigated parameters are biomass dry weight, pH variation, total chlorophyll and carotenoid content. Results showed that used growth media have a significant impact on microaglae culture, particularly in terms of cells growth, pigment content and pH variation. Moreover, the mixture BG11/Cheese whey (60/40, %v/v) shows the best impact for total chlorophylls and carotenoids content. Likewise, the mixture cheese whey/drainage water (60/40, %v/v) presents a positive effect on pigments content. The use of cheese whey and drainage water lead to enhance the biomass and pigment production. This study showed that using agro-industrial C-rich wastes and drainage water enhanced microalgae biomass and pigment content, thus contributing to pollution abatement. This will contribute to both reducing the cost of production and resources recycling.
