| Summary, etc | Taurine is an essential component that becomes limiting in plant based diets. Organic acids<br/>and their salts could be utilized as acidifiers to improve the performance, wellbeing and resistance<br/>status of aquatic living beings. Fishes have low degrees of acidic secretions in the gut as compared<br/>to warm blooded creatures. Incorporation of natural acids in their feed decreases pH in the gut and<br/>improves the phytate hydrolysis, diminishes the pace of gastric exhausting and improves<br/>mineralization and supplement ingestion. Current study was conducted to evaluate the effects of<br/>dietary taurine addition in linseed meal based diet on growth performance, nutrient digestibility<br/>and mineral retention of Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) fingerlings. C. carpio fingerlings were<br/>fed with graded levels (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10gkg-1) of dietary taurine for 60 days. The diets were fed<br/>to triplicate groups of fish fingerlings (6.22 g average initial body weight) to apparent satiation<br/>twice a day and feces were collected. Fish performance was significantly improved (P<0.05) by<br/>dietary taurine up to optimal level of 4gkg-1 after which a noticeable decline in fish growth was<br/>observed due to poor retention of various essential nutrients and minerals. Highest digestibility<br/>values of crude proteins (73%), crude fat (66%) and gross energy (72%) were observed at this<br/>optimum inclusion of dietary taurine in linseed meal based diet. Likewise better absorption<br/>(P<0.05) of majority of minerals (Ca, Cu, Na, P and K) were found in fish fed at 4gkg-1 taurine<br/>level. Highest survival (98%) rate was recorded with fish fed on 4 gkg-1 taurine supplemented diet.<br/>So it seems that taurine could be used as feed additive in linseed meal based diet to confer better<br/>growth and health of common carp at the level of 4 gkg-1 in linseed meal based diet.<br/>Keywords: Taurine, linseed meal, Cyprinus carpio, growth performance, Nutrient<br/>digestibility and mineral absorption. |
