Camelina as Feed

Amino acid digestibility in camelina products fed to growing pigs – F.N. Almeida1, J.K. Htoo, J. Thomson, and H.H. Stein – Canadian Journal of Animal Science – 2013

Summary: An experiment was conducted to determine the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of crude protein (CP) and amino acids (AA) in two sources of camelina seeds and to compare the SID of CP and AA in camelina products with the SID of CP and AA in solvent-extracted canola meal fed to pigs. Results from this experiment indicate that the SID ...

Transcriptomic analyses of intestinal gene expression of juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) fed diets with Camelina oil as replacement for fish oil – S.Morais, R.B. Edvardsen, D.R. Tocher, and J.G. Bell – Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology – 2011

Summary: For aquaculture of marine species to continue to expand, dietary fish oil must be replaced with more sustainable vegetable oil alternatives. Most vegetable oils are rich in n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and few are rich in n-3 PUFA but Camelina oil is unique in that, besides high 18:3n-3 and n-3/n-6 PUFA ratio, it also contains substantial long-chain monoenes, ...

Changes in Tissue Lipid and Fatty Acid Composition of Farmed Rainbow Trout in Response to Dietary Camelina Oil as a Replacement of Fish Oil – S.M. Hixson, C.C. Parrish, and D.M. Anderson – Lipids – 2013

Summary: Camelina oil replaced 50% and 100% of fish oil in diets for farmed rainbow trout. Camelina is particularly unique due to its high lipid content and high amount of α-linolenic acid. Replacing 100% of fish oil with camelina oil did not negatively affect growth of rainbow trout after a 12-week feeding trial. Final DHA and EPA amounts in a ...

Full substitution of fish oil with camelina (Camelina sativa) oil, with partial substitution of fish meal with camelina meal, in diets for farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and its effect on tissue lipids and sensory quality. – S.M. Hixson, C.C. Parris

Summary: Camelina oil (CO) and meal (CM) are potential replacements of fish meal (FM) and oil in aquaculture feeds. This study tested diets with 100% Camelina oil, solvent extracted FM and partially substituted FM with 10% CM, in a 16 week feeding trial with Atlantic salmon. This was the first study to use CO as a complete FO replacement in ...

Effect of replacement of fish oil with camelina (Camelina sativa) oil on growth, lipid class and fatty acid composition of farmed juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) – S.M. Hixson, C.C. Parrish, and D.M. Anderson – Fish Physiology and Biochemistry 2013

Camelina (Camelina sativa) oil was tested as a replacement for fish oil in diets for farmed Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua). Camelina differs from other plant oilseeds previously used in aquaculture with high lipid, α-linolenic acid, antioxidants and low proportions of saturated fats. In sum: Camelina oil can reduce the amount of fish oil needed to meet lipid requirements, although replacing ...

Biochemical Characterization of Flour from Seeds of Camelina sativa L. (Crantz) After Chemical Extraction of Oil – R. Russo – PhD Thesis, U of Milan, 2012

Summary: Camelina meal has high protein content, a balanced amino acid profile and a quite good ruminal digestibility of protein similar to rapeseed or soybean meal used in animal feed. Low-input Camelina biodiesel by-product could strongly substitute for high-input rapeseed or soybean biodiesel by-product in feed formulations. The characterization of Camelina meal described in this thesis suggests that research trials ...
