Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary bile acids on growth performance, feed utilization, body composition, digestive enzyme activity, and related gene expression in juvenile leopard coral grouper. Results showed that feeding 0.3% bile acids significantly improved weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and feed intake. Furthermore, dietary bile acids decreased lipid deposition, increased intestinal trypsin and lipase activities, and up-regulated the expression of fatty acid binding protein 2 while down-regulating cholesterol transport related genes.

Summary: The study found that complete replacement of fishmeal with crocodile meat meal significantly reduced feed intake, weight gain, specific growth rate, and protein efficiency ratio while increasing feed conversion ratio. Crocodile meat meal also had negative effects on haemato-biochemical parameters and tissue nutrient composition in the dusky kob.

Summary: The study conducted an 8-week feeding trial with different lipid levels on juvenile spotted knifejaw Oplegnathus punctatus. Results showed that as dietary lipid level increased, weight gain and specific growth rate improved until reaching 12.93%, while feed efficiency, protein efficiency ratio, nitrogen retention, and energy retention followed the same trend. Liver glycogen deposition, serum protein concentration, and total cholesterol content were influenced by dietary lipid levels. Regression analysis suggested that a diet containing 10.46-12.83% lipids was optimal for growth performance and feed efficiency in juvenile O. punctatus.

Summary: Nitrogen and phosphorous are crucial nutrients for the growth of cyanobacteria, affecting bloom formation by toxic species. Manipulating these nutrients can enhance lipid production in cyanobacteria. This study compared growth, pigment, and lipid production in two toxic strains and found differences in response to different nutrient combinations.

Summary: Insect-derived proteins are a promising ingredient for poultry feed. This study investigated the impact of graded levels of Tenebrio molitor larvae meal on quail growth and meat quality. The inclusion of TM meal increased feed conversion ratio and decreased carcass and breast weight. It also had an effect on the texture and water holding capacity of meat.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of different levels of dietary lipid on the growth performance and immune response of fingerling Labeo rohita. The results showed that increasing the level of dietary lipid significantly improved the growth rate, feed efficiency, and immune response of the fish. However, there was a negative correlation between the levels of lipid in the diet and certain liver enzyme activities.

Summary: Due to the increasing demand for alternative protein feed ingredients, the utilization of oilseed by-products in animal nutrition has been sought as a promising solution. This review summarized the nutritional value of six cold-pressed cakes and their effects on animal performance. The results showed that these cakes are a good protein and lipid source, however, their utilization in pig and poultry nutrition is limited due to the presence of antinutritive factors.

Summary: The study found that the optimal dietary lipid level for juvenile Siberian sturgeon was 169.9-176.0 g/kg, which resulted in the best growth performance and feed utilization. Increasing dietary lipid levels also led to enhanced lipid deposition in the whole body, muscle, and liver, as well as impacted serum biochemical parameters and digestive enzyme activities.

Summary: In order to meet customers' demand for more sustainable and functional products, this research aimed to replace traditional feed raw materials in rabbit diets with C. glomerata biomass. The results showed that C. glomerata supplementation increased protein and essential amino acids levels in rabbit meat, reduced fat accumulation, and improved the lipid profile's nutritional value, potentially contributing to the prevention of heart disease.

Summary: The study found that in Japanese youths, high intake of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids was associated with low levels of low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol, while high intake of saturated fatty acids was associated with high levels of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, indicating a close relationship between dietary fatty acid composition and cardiometabolic risk.
