Effect of dietary iron levels on growth, body composition and intestinal enzyme activities of juvenile Jian carp (Cyprinus carpio var. Jian)

Abstract: A 60‐day feeding trial was carried out to investigate the effect of iron on growth, body composition and digestive enzyme activities. Diets with seven levels of iron (53.9, 90.0, 115.6, 146.1, 176.0, 215.8 and 266.0 mg iron kg−1 diet) were fed to Jian carp (initial weight 11.4 ± 0.0 g). Per cent weight gain (PWG), feed efficiency (FE) and protein efficiency ratio were the lowest in fish fed the basal diet (P < 0.05). Body protein content was increased with the increasing iron levels (P < 0.05), but moisture, l… Show more

“…All diets were made isonitrogenous with the addition of appropriate amounts of glycine according to the method of [24]. Lysine, methionine, threonine, pyridoxine, pantothenic acid, inositol, thiamin, riboflavin, zinc and iron were prepared to meet the nutrient requirements of juvenile Jian carp according to our laboratory studies [30][39]. The levels of other nutrients met the requirements of common carp ( Cyprinus carpio L.) according to the NRC (1993) [40].…”

“…The molecular weight distribution of peptide was determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-offlight (TOF) mass spectrometry according to Gobom et al (2002). Zinc, ferrum, pyridoxine, pantothenic acid, inositol, thiamine, and riboflavin were formulated to meet the nutrient requirements of Jian carp according to our laboratory previous studies by Tan et al (2011), Ling et al (2010, He et al (2009), Wen et al (2009), Huang et al (2011, respectively. Other nutrients met the requirements of common carp according to NRC (2011).…”

“…Diets were made isonitrogenous by supplementation of glycine. Zinc, iron, pyridoxine, pantothenic acid, inositol, thiamin and riboflavin were formulated to meet the nutrient requirements of Jian carp according to previous studies conducted in our laboratory (He et al 2009;Jiang et al 2009;Wen et al 2009;Ling et al 2010; Tan et al 2011). The levels of other nutrients met the requirements for common carp according to the NRC (National Research Council).…”
