Chitin in shrimp waste is tightly associated with proteins, lipids, pigments and mineral deposits. Therefore, these source materials have to be pretreated to remove these components. For a long time, chemical process has been used widely for extraction of chitin from shrimp waste. The chemical process however led to severe environmental damage and low chitin quality. The biological process has been shown promising to replace the harsh chemical process to reduce the environment impact. In our pre...

De part son profil équilibré en acides aminés essentiels (AAE), la farine de poisson (FP) est la source protéique principale utilisée dans l’alimentation des crevettes d’élevage. Cependant, compte tenu des enjeux du développement durable de la production aquacole, son utilisation doit être réduite, et remplacée par d’autres sources protéiques comme les protéines végétales (PV), qui sont souvent carencées en lysine et méthionine mais riches en cystine. Les conséquences d’un tel changement aliment...

White feces syndrome (WFS) is an emerging problem for penaeid shrimp farming industries in SE Asia countries, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, China, and in India. This occurrence of this syndrome is usually first evidenced by the appearance of white fecal strings floating on surface of the shrimp ponds. The gross signs of affected shrimp include the appearance of a whitish hindgut and loose carapace, and it is associated with reduced feeding and growth retardation. To investigate the nat...

Limited water exchange shrimp culture technology is commonly used today in many shrimp farms in Vietnam to reduce water usage, input of diseases and discharge of nutrient-rich effluents into environment as well as to increase the production per unit area. However, a remaining problem in this technology is that the water quality in shrimp ponds will be reduced due to limitation of water exchange for a long period. The accumulation of inorganic components such as waste feed, bacterial deposits or ...

Ce travail de thèse a eu pour objectif de tester pour la première fois le concept de programmation nutritionnelle chez la crevette Litopaneus vannamei. La première question était de savoir à quel moment le stimulus précoce devait se faire lors du développement de la crevette. Dans ce but, nous avons déterminé deux fenêtres de développement (stades protozoea et post-larvae) pendant lesquelles la plasticité moléculaire pour le métabolisme semblait optimale (publication n°1). La deuxième question p...

Pelagic Sargassum was used to determine the effects of habitat architecture for one species of shrimp (Leander tenuicornis) and two species of fish (Stephanolepis hispidus and Histrio histrio). Inter-thallus spacing (low, medium, and high) and depth (shallow versus deep) were manipulated independently to test whether the spatial components of habitat architecture. Two differing habitats (Sargassum versus seagrass species) were tested for the structural component of habitat architecture. There we...

Chitosan (CH) is a biopolymer obtained from the deacetylation of chitin, a polysaccharide present in the exoskeleton of crustaceans and cell walls of fungi. Application of CH may be limited by its water-insolubility. It can be dissolved in acids and forms relatively high viscosity solutions. CH solutions have antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. CH penetration into shrimp may be facilitated by vacuum tumbling with low viscosity chitosan-sodium tripolyphosphate (CH-TPP) nanoparticle or water...

Microbial biofloc systems are increasingly important to raising Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), because they efficiently remove wastes produced by high density cultivation and have the potential to provide supplemental nutrition and oxygen to the shrimp population. Gross primary productivity (GPP) and community respiration (RESP) can easily be measured and used to characterize the dominant processes in a system and how they relate to shrimp growth, microbial productivity, an...

Rainbow trout of approximately 2.5 grams were fed diets in which herring meal was the major protein source. Shrimp meal, freeze-dried krill meal, cooked krill meal and soybean were incorporated into the diets at two levels of replacement - 11% and 22% of total protein. The total protein content of these diets was 28%. An additional series of diets containing 36% protein was fed where 17% of the protein was replaced by test ingredients. The diets containing shrimp meal and freeze-dried krill meal...

Sex-specific nutritional requirements for crude protein and fat were demonstrated in cultured (F1) Penaeus stylirostris brood stock. Female shrimp required diets which had higher protein (32 versus 27%), lower fat (2.5 versus 3.9%), higher protein/calorie ratios (8.5 versus 6.8% protein/kcal/g), and much higher protein/fat ratios (15.4 versus 7.8% protein/% fat) than males. These studies have also demonstrated a nutritional demand corresponding to the onset of ovarian maturation, a phenomenon wh...

Tilapia culture in Indonesia was started with the Mozambique Tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) in the 1930’s, and the Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) the 1960’s. The genetic improvement program of the Nile Tilapia, has led Indonesia to be one of the main tilapia producers in the world. On the other hand, shrimp aquaculture in the country was not started until the 1960’s, it became more popular after the eye ablation technology for broodstock maturation was developed in the early 1980’s.
