2024-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Astaxanthin has potent antioxidant activity and is frequently used for feed supplementation. This study investigated the effects of dietary astaxanthin on the growth performance and innate immune index of juvenile sea cucumbers (Apostichopus japonicas). Astaxanthin was replaced 0 g/kg, 0.1 g/kg, 0.3 g/kg, and 0.5 g/kg of cellulose to formulate four kinds of test feeds with equivalent nitrogen and energy. Dietary a...
