Abstract
It was previously observed that solid-state fermentation (SSF) with Aspergillus ibericus increased brewer's spent grain (BSG) protein content (21 %) while reducing lipid (49 %), cellulose (30 %), hemicellulose (34 %), and lignin (7.3 %) contents. This study evaluated the potential of fermented BSG (BSG-SSF) as a novel feed ingredient for meagre (Argyrosomus regius) juveniles by evaluating growth performance, digestive function, intermediary metabolism, oxidative status, and intestinal histomorphology. Three diets were formulated: a control diet without BSG (15 % fish meal and 66 % plant ingred ...
