Calpain activity and texture in Atlantic salmon muscle analysis
(Master thesis, 2014-02-19)Calpain system consists of L- calpain , m- calpain, the calcium- dependent neutral proteases, and their endogenous inhibitor , calpastatin. Calpain system is probably the major proteolytic enzyme in protein degradation, ... -
Measuring the fat content in intestine of atlantic salmon by using computerized tomography
(Master thesis, 2014-02-19)The aim of our study was to use the CT scanning as a non-destructive method to find out the amount of fat in the Atlantic salmon intestinal area. Farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was subjected to computerized X-ray ... -
The effect of phytase supplementation on broiler and interaction between phytase and intermittent feeding and structural components
(Master thesis, 2014-02-19)An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of exogenous phytase supplementation and the interaction between phytase and feeding regime and between phytase and component structures on the performance, bone ash ... -
Effect of nutritional level of omega-3 fatty acids on growth and health related parameters of Atlantic salmon rared in fresh water
(Master thesis, 2014-02-19)Fish are the main supplier, in the human food basket, of the health beneficial n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA). Fish oil (FO) has traditionally been used as the dominating lipid component in fish feed. However, ... -
The effect of intermittent feeding on performance of broiler chicken and influence of oat hulls structure on diet flow
(Master thesis, 2014-02-18)Two trials were carried out to study the effect of intermittent feeding on performance of broiler chicken and passage rate of diet. In addition, interaction effects among feeding regime, oat hulls (OH) structure and phytase ... -
Genetic parameters of a commercial Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) breeding program
