Growth Response of White Prawn, Penaeus indicus, to Dietary L-Carnitine

V. Jayaprakas, C. SAMBHU

Open publisher page 33 citations

Abstract

Juveniles of Penaeus indicus were fed a biosynthetic product, L-camitine, at concentrations of 100 ppm (Tl), 250 ppm (T2), 500 ppm (T3), 750 ppm (T4) and 1,000 ppm (TS) in a fish meal-based supplementary feed having 40% protein. A diet without L-camitine supplement served as control (TO). The growth study was conducted for 120 d in nylon hapas, arranged in a brackishwater pond. AH diets with L-camitine produced significantly higher growth than the control (P
