Title Investigations on the Digestive Enzyme Profile of
Some Shrimp Feeds
 
Creator Smitha, K S

Subject Feed
 
Description Proteolytic, lipolytic and amylolytic activities were determined in four feeds viz, clam meat (NFI) and shrimp meat (NF2)
as natural feeds: Moina (LFI and Arrenlia nauplii (LF2) as live feeds: a laboratory formulated (CFI) and a commercial
brand (CF2) and two micro-particulate feeds (MPI and MP2) as artificial feeds. High protease activity (10.70 units/min)
was recorded in the feed CF2 followed by the micro-particulate feeds (9.35 unitslmin). High amylase activity of 3.72
unitslmin was recorded in clam meat followed by the agar-gelatin micro-particulate feed in which the activity corresponded
to 2.2 units/min. The highest esterase activity of 2.37 units/min was obtained in the commercial (CFZ) formulated feed.
Activities were recorded in most feeds showing reactivation or incomplete denaturation in the formulated feeds.
