The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of quercetin (QUE) on alleviating the negative effects of high soybean meal diet for spotted sea bass Lateolabrax maculatus. A healthy control group fed a 44% fishmeal diet was used, while the induction control group replaced 50% fishmeal with soybean meal. Subsequently, QUE was added at concentrations of 0.

The diet with 44% fish meal content was designed as a blank control. On this basis, soybean meal was used to replace 50% fish meal as HSBMD, and LBP was added in HSBMD in gradient (1.

A total of 540 fish were fed six experimental diets, including a normal fat diet (NFD), a high-fat diet (HFD), and HFD supplemented with 100, 200, 300, and 400 mg/kg CGA (named HFD1, HFD2, HFD3, and HFD4, respectively) for 7 weeks. The results showed that HFD feeding increased growth and hepatic lipid deposition compared to that in the NFD group.

In this study, we investigated the effects of CB in the feed on growth performance, digestion, and intestinal health of juvenile spotted sea bass. To provide a theoretical basis for the development and application of CB in the feed of spotted sea bass, a total of 450 spotted sea bass with an initial body weight of (9.

Firstly, the study showed that the optimum density for growth and growth inhibition was 0.49 and 0.

The results showed that EQ and extracts of Angelica sinensis (EAs) inhibited lipid oxidation in material above. Of all of the examined EAs, EAE showed the strongest protective effects against the lipid oxidation.
