Aerobic exercise training for improving robustness of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(PhD Thesis;2012:29, Doctoral thesis, 2012)Exercise training produces a wide range of benefits to fish kept in captivity. Research has shown that among several other parameters, growth, feed efficiency, feed intake and cardiac capacity are improved. In higher ... -
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) as a feed ingredient for salmonids with focus on the shell fraction and fluoride
(PhD Thesis;2011:21, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) may be the largest biomass of a single species worldwide and is a promising ingredient for use in fish feeds. Krill have a balanced amino acid profile, and krill lipids are rich in ... -
