Evaluation of the Effectiveness of a Matrix of Exogenous Proteases in the Nutrition of Shrimp <i>Penaeus vannamei</i>
This study evaluated the effectiveness of a matrix of acid and alkaline proteases in diets for <i>Penaeus vannamei</i> shrimp, considering zootechnical performance, meat yield, and intestinal histomorphometry. The experiment was carried out in 32 experimental units, with four treatments...

| description | This study evaluated the effectiveness of a matrix of acid and alkaline proteases in diets for <i>Penaeus vannamei</i> shrimp, considering zootechnical performance, meat yield, and intestinal histomorphometry. The experiment was carried out in 32 experimental units, with four treatments and eight replications each, using a density of 80 shrimp per square meter. The treatments consisted of positive control (PC) with standard diet, negative control (NC) with nutritional reduction, PC supplemented with 250 g/t of proteases (PCE), and NC supplemented with 250 g/t of proteases (NCE). In the fattening phase, significantly greater weight gain was observed in the NCE (14.23 g) and PCE (13.6 g) groups (<i>p</i> = 0.0381). Feed efficiency increased by 56.07% in the NCE group. Weekly growth was higher in the PCE (113.4%) and NCE (118.6%) groups (<i>p</i> = 0.028), with post-slaughter yields of 53.03% (NCE) and 52.21% (PCE). Water and humidity retention capacity remained stable in the NCE group during 210 days of frozen storage after slaughter. Intestinal histology indicated a greater absorption area in the groups with the best feed conversion and growth rates. It is concluded that protease supplementation improves nutrient absorption, growth, and meat yield in <i>P. vannamei.</i> |
