Effects of soybean-containing diets on the proximal and distal intestine in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar): a morphological study

Evaluation of Locally-available Agroindustrial Byproducts as Partial Replacements to Fishmeal in Diets for Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) Production in Ghana

“…Mukhopadhyay and Ray [36], for example observed reductions in tannin levels from 2.4 to 0.9% after soaking copra meal in water for 16 hours and fish fed diets containing the pre-soaked copra meal compared favourably with the fishmeal-based control group in terms of growth response, food conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio. The nutritional potential of soybean meal has also been reported to increase after appropriate treatment to remove or inactivate the antinutritional factors present in them [37,38]. Similar to the findings of Rumsey et al and Krogdahl et al [39,40] it was observed at the end of the growth trials that fish fed diets high in SBM generally exhibit progressive impairment of growth and increased feed conversion ratios.…”

An initial investigation replacing fish meal with a commercial fermented soybean meal product in the diets of juvenile rainbow trout

“…Soybean meal in rainbow trout diets produces welldocumented deleterious effects on the distal intestine, such as morphological changes and subacute enteritis [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19], as well as changes to intestinal microbial communities [15,16,18], and hepatic morphology [12]. Similar effects have been reported in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar [20][21][22][23].…”

Energy dilution with α-cellulose in diets for Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L.) juveniles — Effects on growth, feed intake, liver size and digestibility of nutrients

“…In experiments with salmon elucidating the effect of soybean meal inclusions, there were found severe changes in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) (Van Den Ingh et al, 1991;Francis et al, 2001;Krogdahl et al, 2003). Plant protein diets gave no detectable enteritis changes in cod intestine (Hansen et al, 2006;Refstie et al, 2006b;Olsen et al, 2007), plus there were found a significant number of bacteria in the lower intestinal tract.…”
