Is dietary taurine supplementation beneficial for farmed fish and shrimp? a comprehensive review (2014, background): “In the meantime, Lunger et al. (2007) found that when juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum) fed diets containing 50 and 75% yeast-based protein supplemented with taurine alone, taurine, methionine and tryptophan or methionine and tryptophan alone, the best performance was recorded in fish fed the…”
Use of soy protein concentrate and novel ingredients in the total elimination of fish meal and fish oil in diets for juvenile cobia, Rachycentron canadum (2010, methodology): “This diet formulation was based not only upon published results from our laboratory (Craig and McLean, 2005; Craig et al., 2006; Lunger et al., 2006, 2007a,b), but also incorporating the results of several unpublished feeding trials involving novel alternate protein sources in aquafeeds for…”
Dietary taurine enhances growth and digestive enzyme activities in larval cobia (2012, background): “Supplementation of taurine in diets of juvenile fish (Gaylord et al., 2006; Lunger et al., 2007; Sakaguchi et al., 1988), wherein better growth was observed, likely occurred due to similar physiological modifications.”
