Unit 19 - Nutritional deficiency disorders, symptoms and diseases in fishes
19.2.Nutritional disorders due to protein deficiency
Apart from the above, nutritional pathologies may arise from the consumption of feed proteins containing toxic amino acids or their derivatives. Feed proteins containing toxic amino acids have a negative effect on fish growth and feed efficiency including eventual death of fish. In addition to the non-essential amino acids, certain EAA (ie. leucine) have also been reported to exert a toxic effect in fish when present in excesses.
