Effects of porcine bile extracts added at three different dietary concentrations 0, 10 and 20 g kg)1 were studied on astaxanthin serum concentration in rainbow trout (mean weight 200 ± 7 g). Astaxanthin from micro-algae Haematococcus pluvialis and synthetic astaxanthin (CAROPHYLL pink) were incorporated in diets of rainbow trout at a rate of 100 mg astaxanthin kg)1 of feed. Fish were hand fed twice a day. Aft...
Astaxanthin concentration in the blood of rainbow trout was studied in a feeding trial with two different astaxanthin sources: green algae Haematococcus pluvialis and commercial beadlets of 8% astaxanthin content (CAROPHYLL® Pink), and two different dietary lipid levels. The green algae contained 1.4% of carotenoids on a dry matter basis: free astaxanthin (<1%), astaxanthin monoester (24.3%); astaxanthin dieste...
