Zooplankton, Daphnia galeata, Biochemical compositionAbstract
Zooplankton with good source of protein, amino acid, lipids, fatty acid, minerals, carbohydrate and enzymes could be an inexpensive ingredient to replace expensive fishmeal. Few studies have been made on the chemical composition of zooplankton although such information is vital to evaluate a species and its suitability as feed, in aquaculture. The present study also deals with analysis of biochemical composition of Daphnia galeata (Cladocera), which cultured in laboratory. In present study Daphnia galeata contended 14.1 % total lipid; 63.3 % protein and 15.68 % glycogen.
