Changes in the taurine content during the early growth stages of artificially produced yellowtail compared with wild fish [Japanese]

摘要

This experiment was conducted to investigate the changes in taurine content during the development of artificially produced yellowtail Seriola quinqeradiata larvae and juveniles. Besides this, the taurine content of wild caught and reared yellowtail was compared. We analyzed the free amino acids content in larvae and juveniles produced at the Goto Station of Japan Sea-Farming Association and Nagasaki Prefecture Institute of Fisheries (TL, 4.2-186.8 mm) and juveniles caught from the coastal area of Nagasaki Prefecture (TL, 29.7-179.0 mm).
