Journal ArticleDOI
Enzyme producing bacterial flora isolated from fish digestive tracts
TL;DR: The study indicates that there is a distinct microbial source of the digestiveenzymes – amylase, cellulase, lipase and protease, apart from endogenoussources in fish gut, that might contribute towards better feed formulations for carp at low cost, incorporating the enzyme producing bacterial isolates as probiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of cellulase-producing bacteria from the digestive tract of tilapia, Oreochromis mossambica (Peters) and grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idella (Valenciennes)
TL;DR: It was found that the ability of different strains in degrading cellulose varies within a wide range, and might contribute towards better-feed formulation incorporating plant ingredients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the nutritive value of Leucaena leucocephala leaf meal, inoculated with fish intestinal bacteria Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus circulans in formulated diets for rohu, Labeo rohita (Hamilton) fingerlings
TL;DR: It is shown that it is possible to incorporate Leucaena leaf meal inoculated with enzyme-producing fish intestinal bacteria in carp diets up to 40% level of inclusion and the activity of α-amylase increased with the increasing level of treated leaf meal in diets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Duckweed (Lemna polyrhiza) leaf meal as a source of feedstuff in formulated diets for rohu (Labeo rohita Ham.) fingerlings after fermentation with a fish intestinal bacterium.
TL;DR: It was shown that fermented Lemna leaf meal can be incorporated into carp diets up to 30% level compared to 10% level of raw meal, and that the apparent protein digestibility (APD) decreased with increasing levels of leaf meal irrespective of treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Bacilli Isolated from the Gut of Rohu, Labeo rohita, Fingerlings and Its Significance in Digestion
TL;DR: Biochemical characterization of the isolates suggests that the microorganisms (Bacillus circulans, B. pumilus, and B. cereus) might play an important role in the nutrition of rohu fingerlings.
