    Notes: The iodine concentration in wild zooplankton was 700 times higher than in Artemia and threefold higher in Atlantic halibut Hippoglossus hippoglossus larvae fed wild zooplankton than in those fed Artemia. In larvae fed wild zooplankton thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations were significantly higher than in those fed Artemia at the commencement of metamorphosis, 68–77 days post hatching. There was no difference in the amino acids phenylalanine and tyrosine levels in larvae fed Artemia in comparison with those fed wild zooplankton. The selenium level was significantly higher in larvae fed Artemia than in those fed wild zooplankton, but concentrations in the prey were not different. The results indicate sufficient amounts of phenylalanine, tyrosine and selenium in Artemia, but indicated a lower thyroid status due to an insufficient iodine supply at commencement of metamorphosis in larvae fed Artemia. This may partly explain the higher frequency of juveniles with complete eye migration and asymmetric pigmentation in the group fed wild zooplankton.

    Notes: Small raceways were used in a weaning experiment with Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus L.) larvae. The size of the tanks was 1.0 × 0.4 m with a 1- to 2-cm water level. Duplicate larval groups were transferred to the raceways from circular first feeding tanks at 0.07, 0.10 and 0.16 g wet weight, while recommended weaning size of this species is 0.2–0.3 g. During the first 7 days of weaning, Artemia was used as a food supplement in combination with the formulated dry feed. Thereafter only dry feed was used. The dry feed used in this experiment was produced by a special heat technique. The 0.07, 0.10 and 0.16 g larval groups were evaluated after 31, 25 and 17 days respectively (same date) The corresponding average survival was 81.4%, 78.0% and 96.6% and the specific daily growth rate was 3.18%, 3.17% and 2.38% respectively. In the Artemia control group, a survival rate of 96.0% and a growth rate of 5.28% was achieved. To evaluate the weaning success, the groups were followed in a 22-day post-weaning period on a commercial dry diet. Higher growth rates, 5.8–6.9%, were then obtained in all experimental groups, except control. The survival here averaged approximately 80% in the three experimental groups, but showed some differences between replicates. One hundred per cent survival was achieved during weaning in the former Artemia group. From the start of weaning to the end of the post-weaning period, the survival rates averaged 64% for the 0.07 and 0.10 g groups, approximately 80% for the 0.16 g group and 96% in the Artemia control group. Higher variance (CV) through the experiment and highest growth of the 75% quartiles of the fish groups compared with the 50% and 25%, indicated suppressed growth of the smaller fish. The successful weaning at these small sizes considerably reduced the live food period. Based on the present knowledge of the energetic demands of this species, it is calculated that weaning at 0.07 g compared with 0.25 g will reduce the amount of Artemia needed by at least 60%. No differences in pigmentation or degree of completed eye migration were detected between groups, indicating that this is determined at earlier developmental stages.

    Notes: The influence of α-tocopheryl acetate (α-TOAc) on plasma concentration and fillet deposition ofdietary astaxanthin was investigated in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. The diets were added 30 or 50 mg kg–1 astaxanthin, and 200, 400 or 800 mg kg–1α-TOAc at each astaxanthin level. Improved flesh deposition of astaxanthin by 8–14% was achieved for fish fed diets with 30 and 50 mg kg–1 astaxanthin, respectively, by the dietary addition of 800 compared with 200 mg kg–1α-TOAc. These results were supported by CIE[1976]L*a*b* tristimulus redness measurements (a* value). Plasma astaxanthin concentration mirrored the muscle astaxanthin concentration in the groups of fish fed a diet containing 30 mg kg–1 astaxanthin. The salmon fed a high astaxanthin and low α-TOAc diet had the highest plasma concentration of idoxanthin (P 〈 0.05). Astaxanthin retention was significantly higher (P 〈 0.001) in salmon fed 30 mg kg–1 astaxanthin than in those fed 50 mg kg–1 astaxanthin, but was not significantly affected by dietary α-TOAc. Liver weight, body weight, specific growth rate, feed/gain ratio and mortalities were not affected by dietary α-TOAc levels. In conclusion, the dietary addition of α-TOAc appears to increase astaxanthin fillet deposition in salmonids and may reduce the demand for astaxanthin supplementation. The effect was rather small and requires verification.

    Notes: Atlantic salmon smolt (64 g) were fed 40, 300 or 1100 mg kg−1 all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate feed under normoxic and moderate hyperoxic conditions for 12 weeks. After 7 weeks, however, the hyperoxic fish were subjected to a temporary severe supersaturation of dissolved oxygen with development of gas bubble disease and substantial mortality as a result. Liver α-tocopherol (α-TOH) levels reflected the dietary input after 6 and 12 weeks of feeding. Increased levels of thiobarbituric-reactive substances (TBARS) in the liver of hyperoxygenated fish after 6 weeks indicate that moderate hyperoxic conditions may represent an oxidative challenge to the fish. After 12 weeks, liver ascorbic acid (AA) content was reduced in hyperoxygenated fish, and a decreasing tendency was also found in the liver content of α-TOH. Effects of oxygen supersaturation were also observed on liver antioxidant enzyme activities, content of glutathione and total mercapthans in liver, phagocytic chemiluminescent response and total plasma protein level, indicating a disturbed redox balance. No effects of dietary vitamin E were observed on any of the measured parameters, indicating that high levels of dietary vitamin E under these circumstances did not protect the fish against oxidative stress.

    Notes: The development of cataracts in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., was studied in 16 groups of smolts fed diets differing in prooxidant (iron, copper, manganese) and antioxidant (vitamin E, vitamin C, astaxanthin) composition and lipid level for 23 weeks in sea water, using a 27--3 reduced factorial design. The seven dietary variables were systematically varied at low (requirement level and 150 g lipid kg−1) and high levels (below known toxic levels and 320 g lipid kg−1). A mean endpoint cataract incidence of approximately 36% was observed. High dietary levels of vitamin C and astaxanthin reduced cataract frequency, whereas high dietary lipid level, iron and manganese were associated with increased cataract frequencies. Considering the nutritional status of selected organs of the fish, only the status of ascorbic acid correlated negatively to cataract development (P 〈 0.05). The lens glutathione (GSH) status was not correlated to cataract frequency, nor statistically explained by the dietary variables. However, the study shows that balancing the diet with respect to pro- and antioxidant nutrients may significantly protect Atlantic salmon against development of cataracts. An incidence of reversible osmotic cataract observed at week 14 was positively correlated to plasma glucose concentration.

    Notes: Sixteen groups of post smolt, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) (initial weight 148 ± 17 g) were fed diets with different lipid content and composition of pro- and antioxidants (vitamin E, vitamin C, astaxanthin, Fe, Cu and Mn). The composition of the experimental diets was based on a multivariate reduced factorial design (RFD) (27–3) with either high (+1) or low (–1) level (within limits of toxicity and requirement) of each of the seven dietary variables. Lipid class and fatty acid (FA) composition was analysed in retina, very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL). Further FA composition was analysed in fillet, liver and plasma. High dietary lipid increased growth, feed efficiency, fillet lipid level and the amount of LDL and HDL in plasma, whereas high dietary copper and high dietary vitamin E decreased the amount of plasma LDL. High dietary vitamin E decreased the amount of lipid and protein in LDL, whereas high dietary lipid increased cholesterol and cholesterol ester levels in plasma and HDL and the amount of lipid in LDL. Dietary astaxanthin and manganese affected retina PE levels. The FA composition did not differ significantly between the 16 diets. Dietary FA composition was reflected in fillet FA composition and gradually less in VLDL, LDL, HDL, plasma, liver and retina FA composition. Dietary lipid content influenced FA composition to some extent in the analysed tissues, i.e. generally high dietary lipid content led to a decreased relative amount of saturated and monoene fatty acids and an increase of the relative amount of polyene fatty acids.

    Notes: The purpose of this study was to describe the relationship between dietary supplementation and concentration of γ- and δ-tocopherol (TOH) in tissues of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, L., when α-TOH was fed at a constant level. Post-smolt Atlantic salmon (230 g) in duplicate tanks were fed a fish-meal-based diet with 250 g kg−1 lipid. Different combinations of RRR-tocopherylacetate preparations were added to give the following levels of TOH (mg kg−1) in diets 1–4, respectively: 150α; 150α+ 100δ; 150α+ 50γ+ 50δ; 150α+ 100γ+ 100δ. The concentrations of γ- and δ-TOH in most tissues were directly proportional to the feed concentrations. Exceptions were γ-TOH in erythrocytes, spleen and kidney and δ-TOH in heart muscle, where the intercept with the y-axis was significantly different from zero. The relative retained levels of α-, γ- and δ-TOH in most tissues were similar to their biological activities in mammals. An exception was muscle and adipose tissue, where γ- and δ-TOH were retained at rates of 70–90% and 20–35% compared with α-TOH, respectively. α-TOH was retained to a greater extent when α-TOH was fed alone than when γ- and δ-TOH were added to the diet. Fish growth was significantly correlated to total dietary TOH concentration. The data suggest that turnover of tocopherols in Atlantic salmon is similar to that in mammals, i.e. that discrimination between the tocopherols is mediated through competition for a tocopherol-binding protein in the liver, and consequently that α-TOH is preferentially secreted in very low density lipoprotein. Muscle and adipose tissue appear to be supplied with tocopherols from chylomicrons that have not yet been exposed to the hepatic discrimination mechanism.

    Notes: Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus L.) larvae were fed enriched Artemia or zooplankton in duplicate tanks from 0 to 60 days after first-feeding. Both diets and the larvae were analysed for vitamin A (VA) in order to confirm earlier findings, in which Artemia fed larvae had lower levels of VA compared with larvae fed zooplankton. Furthermore, we wanted to investigate the composition of the retinoids in the larvae. The results showed that Artemia and zooplankton contains low levels of VA, probably too low to sustain the assumed requirement. Nevertheless, larvae fed Artemia had the same level of retinal and retinol as larvae fed zooplankton. We found a significant lower level of retinyl esters in larvae fed Artemia. The total VA level was lower in larvae fed Artemia only at the end of the feeding trial after the onset of metamorphosis. Our conclusion is that feeding Artemia to Atlantic halibut larvae is not likely to cause VA deficiency.

    Notes: An experiment with 2(7 − 3) reduced factorial design was conducted to study the biological effects of pro- and antioxidant micronutrients and lipid in Atlantic salmon. Vitamins C and E, astaxanthin, lipid, iron, copper and manganese were supplemented at high and low levels. For vitamins and minerals, high levels were chosen to be below the anticipated toxic level and the low levels were just above the requirement (vitamin C, 30 and 1000 mg kg−1; vitamin E, 70 and 430 mg kg−1; Fe, 70 and 1200 mg kg−1; Cu, 8 and 110 mg kg−1; Mn, 12 and 200 mg kg−1). For astaxanthin, the dietary levels were 10 and 50 mg kg−1 and for lipid, 150 and 330 g kg−1. The experiment was started with postsmolts (148 ± 17 g) and lasted for 5 months. The variation in micronutrients had only minor effects on growth, feed conversion and fillet quality, measured as lipid and astaxanthin deposition. High dietary lipid had a profound positive effect on growth and feed conversion but gave fillets nearly two times the fat content that was found in fish fed the low lipid diet. Astaxanthin deposition in the fillet was primarily affected by dietary astaxanthin with a positive effect of high dietary lipid in week 14 but not in week 23. Vitamin E protected the fillet against iron ascorbate stimulated oxidation, with no effect of the other nutrient variables.
