Growth and water quality in Japanese eel, Anguilla japonica ($6.0{\pm}0.9g$) fed extruded and paste type diets were compared for 8 weeks. Fish in the duplicate tanks were fed with one of three experimental diets: two different extruded pellet diets and one paste type diet. Six FRP tanks were used with stocking density of 3.6 kg per tank (3 m3). Restricted feeds (ca. 2% of body weight) were served twice daily. Weight gains were checked at the end of every two-week interval, and water qualities in terms of NH4-N and NO2-N were determined daily one hour after feeding in the morning. Water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and pH were constantly kept within the optimum range, while fifty percent of total water volume was changed daily. Eels fed the extruded pellet diets showed significantly better (P<0.05) growth performance than did eels fed the paste type diet. The amount of feed waste from the paste type diet was significantly greater than those from the extruded pellet diets (P<0.05). Ammonia (NH4-N) waste was significantly higher from the paste diet than from the extruded pellet diets (P<0.05). These results show that extruded pellet diets are better than the paste type diet for growth and water quality management in eel culture.

사료물성과 단백질원 배합비에 따른 조피볼락의 성장차이를 구명하기 위하여, 실험사료의 단백질원을 북양어분과 갈색어분으로 한 사료와 경제적인 측면을 고려하여 어분의 배합 비율을 낮추는 대신, 대두박, 콘글루텐 밀, 육분 및 우모분의 비율을 늘린 2종의 사료를 설계하여, 각각 EP(extruded-floating pellet, 부상사료), SP(slow-sinking pellet, 반부상사료), FP(fast-sinking pellet, 침강사료)와 MP (moist pellet, 습사료) 형태의 배합사료를 제조하였다. 평균체중 75 g의 조피볼락을 각 수조에 50마리씩 수용하여 $2(diet\times)4(diet type)\times3(replication)$ factorial design으로 15주간 사육하였다. 사육 실험한 결과, 실험사료와 사료형태에 따른 최종평균체중, 증체율, 사료효율, 사료 섭취율, 단백질 효율, 간중량비 및 내장중량비는 전혀 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다(P>0.05). 실험 종료시의 실험 구별, 어체 부위별 일반성분 중에 사료별, 사료 형태별로 모두 간과 근육의 단백질 및 근육의 수분과 지질 함량은 실험구간별로 유의적인 차이가 없었다(P>0.05). 위와 같이 사료의 물성이나 침강 속도는 조피볼락의 성장, 영양소 이용효율, 사료 섭취율 및 체성분에 영향을 미치지 않은 것으로 나타나, 양식 현장에서 사료 형태에 관계없이 적절히 선택하여 사용할 수 있을 것으로 전망된다.

곤충 사육용으로 개발되어 있는 인공사료는 습체형으로 사료의 조제 및 사육에 많은 노력이 들고 불편함이 있어 본 연구에서는 나비목 곤충용 인공사료의 펠렛화를 시도하였다. 펠렛사료의 제조에는 이축압출기를 이용하였는데 바렐 내의 압력을 높이기 위해 2축의 앞부분에 역스크류를 2개씩 장착하였고, 수차례의 조정 끝에 메인모터 속도 300rpm, 피드모터 속도 228rpm, 사료조제시의 첨가물량 $75m{\ell}/min$로 맞추었고 이때 사출공의 직경은 5mm의 것을 사용하였다. 사용한 사료의 메뉴는 기존의 것을 첨가량 및 첨가비율에서 다소 조정하였으며 최종적으로 사료의 점착성을 개선하기 위한 새로운 조성분으로 젤라틴을 첨가함으로 사료의 물리성을 획기적으로 개선할 수 있었다. 조제된 사료의 적정 수분흡수량을 검토한 결과 사료 무게의 $1.2{\sim}1.5$배의 물을 첨가하는 것이 가장 양호하였다. 이 사료를 파밤나방 및 담배거세미나방에게 각각 공시하여 사육한 결과 전반적으로 기존의 습체형 인공사료에 비해 사육성적이 떨어지지 않아 추후 곤충용 차세대 인공사료로서 조제하여 공급할 수 있을 것으로 판단되어 펠렛사료 조제법을 특허출원 하였다.

A histo-pathogical examination was carried out to evaluate the effect of commercial extruded pellet (EP) and a raw fish moist pellet (MP) diet on the health of juvenile rockfish cultured in marine net-cage for 7 months. Fish were distributed randomly to each net cage as a group of 76,000 fish (initial mean body weight 5.9 g). After 2 months, the hypertrophy or swelling of liver parenchymal cells was identified in most individuals and lasted until 7 months. Livers in EP fed group frequently showed hypertrophic parenchyma and fatty change with occasional atrophic cells. However, after 4 months, lymphocytic infiltration in splenic parenchyma was seen in a number of individuals. In addition, the gastric glandular epithelium was atrophied and in the lumen of renal tubules protozoan parasites were frequently identified but there was no correlation with the type of feed. Moreover, juvenile rockfish on EP diet showed gross and microscopic hypertrophy of the liver which would be due to oversupply of feed. Severe hepatic cellular hypertrophy or swelling could lead to the damage of microcirculation. Especially fatty change and atrophic change of liver could be the result from the damage, which could be responsible for immunological problem. Lymphocytic infiltration of spleen on the MP diet suggests that juvenile rockfish could be frequently exposed to infectious antigens.

A 3 yr experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of diet and feeding location on animal performance, carcass characteristics, whole blood counts, and internal parasite burden of lambs assigned to 1 of 4 treatments: 1) confinement fed 71% alfalfa, 18% barley pellet, 5% molasses, 0.013% Bovatec, 6.1% vitamin/mineral package diet (CALF), 2) confinement fed 60% barley, 26% alfalfa pellet, 4% molasses, 2.5% soybean-hi pro, 0.016% Bovatec, 7.4% vitamin/mineral package diet (CBAR), 3) field fed 71% alfalfa, 18% barley pellet, 5% molasses, 0.013% Bovatec, 6.1% vitamin/mineral package diet (FALF), and 4) field fed 60% barley, 26% alfalfa pellet, 4% molasses, 2.5% soybean-hi pro, 0.016% Bovatec, 7.4% vitamin/mineral package diet (FBAR). A year × location interaction was detected for ending body weight (BW), average daily gain (ADG), and dry matter intake (DMI); therefore results are presented by year. In all years, cost of gain and DMI were greater for CALF and FALF than for CBAR and FBAR feed treatments (p ≤ 0.03). In yr 2 and 3 field treatments had greater ending BW and ADG than confinement treatments. For all years, diet did not affect ending BW or ADG. In yr 1 dressing percent and rib eye area were greater for field finished lambs than confinement finished (p ≤ 0.02) and Warner-Bratzler shear force was greater for CALF and FALF (p = 0.03). In yr 2 lambs in FALF and FBAR treatments had greater leg scores and conformation than CALF and CBAR (p = 0.09). In yr 1, FALF had a greater small intestine total worm count than all other treatments. In yr 1, ending Trichostrongyle type egg counts were greater for FALF (p = 0.05). In yr 2, ending Nematodirus spp. egg counts were greater for FALF and lowest for CBAR (p < 0.01). Abomasum Teladorsagia circumcinta worm burden was greater in CALF than all other treatments (p = 0.07) in yr 2. While field finishing lambs with a grain- or forage-based diet we conclude that it is possible to produce a quality lamb product without adverse effects to animal performance, carcass quality or increasing parasite burdens.

본 연구는 넙치 치어 (평균체중 1.6g)의 적정 사료 공급 횟수를 조사하여 경제적이고 수질오염원을 줄이기 위한 먹이 공급 체계를 제시하기 위해 수행되었다. 양어가들이 주로 사용하고 있는 건조 pellet 형태의 상품사료와 습사료 (moist pellet, MP)를 제조하여 각 실험수조 (50$\iota$)에 40마리씩 3 (diet)$\times$5 (feeding regimen)$\times$3 (replication) factorial design으로 수용하여 사육 실험 하였다. 사료 공급은 1일 4회 (06:00, 10:00, 14:00, 18:00), 1일 3회 (06:00, 12:00, 18:00), 1일 2회 (06:00, 18:00), 1일 1회 (06:00) 및 2일 1회 (09:00)로 설정하였다. 3 종류의 실험사료로 넙치 치어를 30일간 사육 실험한 결과, 모든 사료에서 공급 횟수가 낮아질수록 일일사료섭취량은 감소하였으며 (P<0.05),사료 공급 횟수가 동일할 때에도 사료 종류에 따라 사료 섭취량이 달라지는 경향을 보였고, 특히 MP 사료가 다른 두 사료보다 그 섭취량이 낮았다. 성장은 세 사료 모두 1일 3회 공급구는 1일 4회 공급구와 유의적인 차이가 없었으므로 1.6$\~$4g의 넙치 치어의 적정 사료 공급 횟수는 1일 3회가 적당할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 사료를 불필요하게 자주 공급할 필요가 없을 것으로 보이며, 과다한 사료 공급은 경제적으로나 인력적인 면에서 불이익이 초래될 것으로 판단된다.

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of feeding by different feed types (powder, crumble and pellet) of two different feed formulations with simple dried (D) or extruded (E) conditions on growth and body composition of juvenile sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus. Triplicate groups of sea cucumber averaging $1.2{\pm}0.05g$ were fed each of the D1, D2, EP1 or EP2 diets for 12 weeks. Survival of sea cucumber fed D2-crumble was higher than that fed EP2-crumble diet (P<0.05). Weight gain of sea cucumber fed EP1-powder was higher than that fed EP1-crumble and EP2-crumble diets (P<0.05). These findings indicated that simple dried feed could use independently feed type for sea cucumber culture and powder type of extruded feed is also good for sea cucumber culture.

A feeding trial was carried out to investigate the utilization of dietary soybean meal and wheat flour as substitutes for fish meal and alginate in different dietary types (powder, pellet and flake) for juvenile snail (Semisulcospira gottschei). After 10 weeks feeding trial, survival was not affected by formulation and type of diets (P>0.05), but weight gain was significantly affected by dietary formulation (P<0.001) and type (P<0.05). In the same dietary formulation, weight gain of the snail fed the flake type of diets was lower than that of the snail fed the powder or pellet types. However, the type of diet did not affect weight gain when snail fed diets containing $37\%$ soybean meal and $18\%$ alginate. The weight gain was lower in the snail fed diets containing $25\%$ fish meal compared with that of the snail for diets containing $33-37\%$ soybean meal at the same dietary type. When soybean meal was used as main protein source in diets, weight gain was not affected by dietary alginate $(0\;and\;18\%)$ and wheat flour $(36\;and\;58\%)$ contents. Crude protein and ash contents of whole body of the snail was not affected either by formulation or by type of diet. Moisture and crude lipid contents of the whole body were significantly affected by dietary formulation, but not by the type. These results indicate that $25\%$ fish meal could be replaced by $37\%$ soybean meal as dietary protein source, and pellet and powder could be desirable dietary type for the optimum growth of the snail.

The effect of an artificial diet on developmental rate, a life history parameter, was examined for the swallowtail butterfly Papilio xuthus. Artificial insect diets are an essential component of many insect rearing systems that produce insects for research purposes. Complex agar-gelled diets are generally prepared in large batches and used shortly after preparation because the degradation of perishable diet ingredients, such as vitamins and fatty acids, can adversely affect insect quality (Brewer 1984). However, the timing of diet preparation may be inconvenient, and large batches wasteful, if the unused excess is discarded. The percentage of pupation varied considerably, with no significant differences among diets, on which a maximum pupation percentage of 83% was observed. Pellet-type diets were investigated with the aim of developing a more easily prepared diet. The extrusion of the artificial diet under high temperature and pressure may induce desirable chemical and physical changes in the extruded product. The purpose of the present study was to develop an artificial diet for rearing P. xuthus.

Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of conditioning (conventional vs expander) corn- and sorghum-based diets on production traits for lactating sows and finishing pigs. In Exp. 1, one hundred sixty-eight sows (parity 1-4, PIC line C15) were fed the corn or sorghum grain diets as a meal, standard (steam) conditioned pellets, or expanded pellets to give a $2{\times}3$ factorial arrangement of treatments. Pellet durability index (PDD was similar for the sorghum- vs corn-based diets, but increased when diets were expanded pellets for both corn- and sorghum-based diets. The corn-based meal diet supported 3.3% greater litter weight gain than the sorghum-based meal diet (44.0 kg vs 42.8 kg). However, the advantage for the corn-based diet disappeared with expander processing (ie., sows fed the sorghum-based diet responded more to diets processed with the alternative processing technology). Sow weight change during lactation was similar (p>0.15) among treatments, although average daily feed intake tended to be greater (p<0.09) for the sows fed sorghum. For Exp. 2, a total of 71 barrows (average initial weight of 58.0 kg) were used in a growth assay to determine the effects of feeding com- and sorghum-based diets, as meal or pellets, after processing with a conventional steam conditioner or an expander (high-shear) conditioner. PDI was not different for the sorghum- vs corn-based diets, but increased from 84 to 95% with expander conditioning compared to conventional steam conditioning. Rate and efficiency of gain, and carcass leanness were similar for pigs fed sorghum and corn (p>0.15). Efficiency of gain was greater (p<0.04) for pigs fed the pelleted (356 g/kg) diets compared to those given the meal (348 g/kg) diets. However, efficiencies of gain were similar (p>0.11) for pigs fed the conventional- and expander-conditioned diets. Pelleting increased (p<0.01) the incidence and severity of stomach lesions regardless of grain type. In conclusion, corn-based meal diet resulted in a greater litter weight gain than the sorghum-based meal diet. However, that advantage disappeared when the diets were expanded and pelleted. Finishing pigs fed pelleted diets were more efficient than those fed meal diets.
