The presented values are the mean ± SD of triplicates (n=3).
The significant difference among treatments was indicated by different superscripts in each column (p < 0.05). The determined lipid levels in the experimental diets were 79, 119, 160, 193, and 228 g/kg for the L80, L120, L160, L200, and L240, respectively.
Hepatosomatic index = 100 × (liver weight / body weight).
Viscerosomatic index = 100 × (viscera weight / body weight).
Condition factor = 100 × (body weight / body length3).
Visceral fat (%) = 100 × (visceral fat / body weight).
