In the study, two objectives were selected in determining the quality and efficiency of Oncorhynchus mykiss eggs obtained from different stations: (1) to determine the biochemical, amino and fatty acid composition and egg quality, (2) to study the effect of egg productivity on egg quality. The study was conducted in 5 different production areas which is produces the most rainbow trout eggs in Turkey. Broodstocks over 3 years old were randomly selected from the company. After the egg productivity analysis, biochemical analysis were conducted. The most abundant amino acid in all stations was glutamic acid, followed by leucine, lysine, in that order. Total amino acid and essential amino acid (EAA) values were between 30.40±0.93-44.47±0.43 and 15.69±0.25-23.88±0.07 g/100g, respectively. As a result of analysis of fatty acids, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), oleic acid and linoleic acid values were higher than other fatty acids. In addition, polyunsaturated (PUFA) values were higher than saturated (SFA) and monounsaturated (MUFA) fatty acid values in the eggs obtained from all stations. Consequently, the amino and fatty acid values of rainbow trout eggs were determined to be sufficient for embryonic development of fish and this values showed rainbow trout eggs as potential source of food for human consumption.

The main goal of this research was to determine the qualitative properties of the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) from aquaculture facility - salmonid fishpond Strezhevo which is situated in Bitola region (Republic of Macedonia). The qualitative properties of the rainbow trout are established by determination of the chemical and the fatty acid composition of the fish meat, the energy value of the meat and the microbiological analysis for the total number of microorganisms on fish skin and presence of Salmonella sp. and Listeria monocytogenes. The main purpose of the research produced additional analyzes that determine the physical - chemical properties and also a microbiological analysis of the water in which the rainbow trout resides, the chemical composition of feed used for feeding of the rainbow trout, the condition factor (CF) and the feed conversion. The results obtained during the examination of the chemical composition of the rainbow trout meat from the fishpond Strezhevo determined the mean value of 74.533% water, 20.600% protein, 3.366% fat and 1.38% ash. The energy value of the meat was 484.635 kJ/100 g. Considering the results of the fatty acid composition of the rainbow trout from the fishpond Strezhevo, it can be concluded that the content of the saturated fatty acids (SFA) is 20.303%, the monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) is 52.359% and the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) is 27.268%. In terms of the amount of n-6 fatty acids, it is 20.180%, while the amount of n-3 is 7.088%.

SUMMARY The present study investigated the role of ammonia as a trigger for hatching, mechanisms of ammonia detoxification and the localization of urea cycle enzymes in the early life stages of freshwater rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). The key urea cycle enzyme carbamoyl phosphate synthetase III was found exclusively in the embryonic body (non-hepatic tissues); related enzymes were distributed between the liver and embryonic body. ‘Eyed-up’ trout embryos were exposed either acutely (2h) to 10mmoll−1 NH4Cl or chronically (4 days) to 0.2mmoll−1 NH4Cl. Time to hatching was not affected by either acute or chronic NH4Cl exposure. Urea levels, but not ammonia levels in the embryonic tissues, were significantly higher than in controls after both acute and chronic NH4Cl exposure, whereas there were no significant changes in urea cycle enzyme activities. Total amino acid levels in the embryonic tissues were unaltered by chronic ammonia exposure, but levels of most individual amino acids and total amino acid levels in the yolk were significantly lower (by 34–58%) than in non-exposed controls. The data indicate that trout embryos have an efficient system to prevent ammonia accumulation in embryonic tissue, by conversion of ammonia to urea in embryonic tissues and through elevation of ammonia levels in the yolk.

Aquaculture feed formulation has recently turned its focus to reduce the reliance on marine-derived resources and utilise alternative feedstuffs, as an approach to improve the environmental sustainability of the aquaculture sector. The fish oil market is highly volatile, and availability of this commodity is continuously decreasing for use in aquaculture. Currently, a growing number of commercial efforts producing microalgae are providing omega 3-rich oil for sustainable aquaculture feed. This study was focused to determine the nutrient digestibility of a marine microalga, Schizochytrium spp., which is rich in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA), as a novel dietary lipid source that could be utilized effectively by rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). A whole-cell Schizochytrium spp. biomass was used in the digestibility experiment at two different temperatures, 8 °C and 15 °C. No significant differences were detected between the two temperatures for the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of the dry matter (94.3 ± 4.9%), total lipids (85.8 ± 0.0%), crude proteins (89.5 ± 1.8%), energy (83.1 ± 1.7%) and fatty acids (85.8 ± 7.5%). The ADCs of the nutrients, energy, DHA and other fatty acids showed that Schizochytrium spp. is a high-quality candidate for fish oil substitution and supplement of LC-PUFA in fish feed with vegetable oils.
