Title
Increased production of docosahexaenoic acid (22: 6 n-3, DHA) in catfish nutritionally stressed by the feeding of oxidized oils and the modulatory effect of dietary α-tocopheryl acetate.
Production of hepatic docosahexaenoic acid in juvenile Clarias gariepinus was significantly increased ( P <0.05) by ingestion of rancid diets and this effect was modulated by dietary vitamin E. This has not been described previously in fish. Causal mechanisms are postulated.
