Delonix regia is commonly called Flamboyant or flame of the forest. The seeds were fermented, boiled, sundried and then ground into powdered meal. 40% crude protein based test diets containing Delonix regia seed meal D0 = 0%; D15 = 15%; D20 = 20% and D25 = 25% inclusion levels respectively were prepared. Red tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings of 6 weeks old were acclimatized for two weeks and then stocked in 12 hapas at 15 fish per hapa measuring 0.6 m × 1.2 m × 0.7 m placed in a concrete tank. Each diet was assigned to fish in a separate hapa in triplicate and administered at 3% fish body weight per day for 16 weeks. Fish weight and length were taken initially, bi-weekly and terminally. Water quality was monitored weekly. Number of fish at the end was recorded and survival rate, growth, feed utilization, fillet yield and blood parameters were determined. The data were subjected to the analysis of variance and mean separation (P= 0.05). Survival rate was highest in fish raised on D20 and least in D25 without any significant difference across the range. Mean growth performances, feed utilization indices and fillet yield were generally congruent between D20 and D25 with varying degrees of significant difference to other feeds. Results of blood assay did not depict harmful effects of the test diets indicating that the fish enjoyed some good measures of health. The gross performance of fish on D20 was optimal. It was therefore concluded that 20% dietary inclusion level of fermented, cooked and dried flamboyant seed was the best for the red tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) post fingerlings.

Abstract Study question How to determine human embryo viability noninvasively before embryo transfer? Summary answer We propose that the combination of the amino acid profile of an individual embryo with its morphokinetics will provide noninvasive tool to determine its viability. What is known already It was already known that human embryos at early cleavage require non-essential amino acids, while at the 8-cell to blastocyst stages, a mixture of non-essential and essential amino acids. Amino acids have important roles during embryo development. Acting as biosynthetic precursors,buffers of intracellular pH in the embryo, antioxidants, energy sources and regulators of metabolic function and signaling pathways. Many studies have used time-lapse to analyze human embryonic development including the process of fertilization and assessment of early events and introducednoninvasive prognostic markers which predict embryo development and correlate it to IVF treatment outcomes. Study design, size, duration This study was a prospective cohort study approved by the Clinical Trial Ethical Committee of Faculty of Medicine, Alexandria University according to ethical standards of scientific research (Serial number: 0303721).Thirty females aged 30.13 ± 4.83 years undergoing ICSI cycle in the Madina Fertility Center, during the period of March 2018 to November 2019.202 MII oocytes were incubated individually in embryoscope. Participants/materials, setting, methods Embryos (n = 161) were divided on Day 5 into two groups –developed embryos “Group D” (embryos that developed to blastocyst) and arrested embryos “Group A” (embryos remain at cleavage stage and fail to develop to blastocys).Developed embryos (Group D) included 99 embryos, and Arrested embryos (Group A) included 62 embryos. For each group, morphokinetic developmental points using embryoscope and the different amino acids concentrations in spent culture medium were analyzed using LC- mass spectro etry. Main results and the role of chance On one hand, the first appearance of pronuclei (TPNa), t2, t4 and CC2 in group D occurred significantly earlier than those of Group A.Analysis of 19 essential and non-essential amino acids in spent culture medium of each embryo in the two studied groups D and A showed a significantly higher concentration of two essential amino acids L-Valine (145.73 ± 150.96) and L-Phenylalanine (61.59 ± 55.78) in Group D than their concentration in Group A ( 104.58 ± 33.58, 44.24 ± 14.61, respectively , p ≤ 0.05).and significantly lower concentration of three non-essential amino acids L-Tyrosine (62.56 ± 41.03) , L-Cysteine (19.48 ± 11.90), and L-Alanine (136.0 ± 389.83) observed in Group D when compared to Group A (69.57 ± 20.78, 22.37 ± 8.59,145.33 ± 165.22, respectively, Limitations, reasons for caution It is important to note, that results were developed on a data set from one clinic with different stimulation protocols, a multicenter data and a correlation with the stimulation protocol used should be involved in future studies, in addition a larger sample size to avoid high standard deviation is recommended Wider implications of the findings: We can conclude that amino acid turnover is independent of the traditional morphological assessment of embryos and it may reflect its viability. The prospective combined use of amino acids profile of individual embryo and its morphokinetic parameters may contribute to introduce a new noninvasivs tool that may improve implantation rate Trial registration number 0303721
