Inferior Assimilation of Algae-based Diets by Sea Cucumber Holothuria scabra under Laboratory Condition Expressed by Stable Isotope Mixing Model

Kunal Mondal & Andreas Kunzmann · Annual Research & Review in Biology · 2018

Aim: To investigate the dietary preferences of sea cucumber Holothuria scabra fed with algal food sources like Sargassum, Fucus, Spirulina, Ulva in combination with marine pellet under laboratory condition. Carbon stable isotope technique (δ13C) was used to better understand the...

Assimilation Dynamics of Different Diet Sources by the Sea Cucumber Holothuria scabra, with Evidence from Stable Isotope Signature

Lisa F. Indriana, A’an J. Wahyudi & Andreas Kunzmann · Annual Research & Review in Biology · 2018

The sea cucumber Holothuria scabra has a high commercial value and a great potential to be cultivated. A thorough feeding strategy is needed to overcome juvenile rearing technique constraints. Stable isotope analysis can be used for determining diet sources of sea cucumbers that...

No Difference in Nutritional Profiles of Wild and Cultured Juvenile Sandfish, Holothuria scabra

Asep Ridwanudin, Lisa Fajar Indriana & Andreas Kunzmann · Annual Research & Review in Biology · 2018

The demand for sandfish, Holothuria scabra has rapidly grown in the last decades. In order to better understand the quality of this species as human food, nutritional profiles of farmed and wild juvenile sandfish were investigated in this study by measuring the proximate body com...
