Abstract
Aims: In this study, the replacement effect of dietary fish meal with AquPro (Processed soybean meal) was assessed on growth performance, body composition and total protease activity of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) over a period of 6 weeks.
Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, at the beginning of the trial, 5 experimental diets were formulated with fish meal as control (A) and diets with 25% (B), 50% (C), 75% (D) and 100% (E) AquPro, respectively. At the end of the feeding trial, growth performance, body composition and total protease activity from pyloric caeca and intestine were measured.
Findings: The results indicated that the WG, SGR and ADG in experimental diet C were the highest and showed a significant difference with other treatments (p<0.05). However, the status index in experimental diet C was lower than other treatments, but did not show significant differences (p>0.05). The moisture content, fat, and body ash were respectively, significantly higher in experimental diets A, B and E than those of other treatments (p<0.05), But the highest amount of protein was observed in the experimental diet of C, which did not show any significant difference with other treatments (p>0.05). The highest total protease activity from pyloric caeca and the intestine was observed in the fish fed with diet C which showed a significant difference with other diets (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Based on the results of growth performance, body composition, and total protease activity was revealed that the diet containing 50% AquPro could be appropriate for rainbow trout growth.

Abstract
Controlled delivery technology of protein/peptide drugs from biodegradable particles has emerged as one of the eminent areas to overcome problems related to macromolecules formulation. The goal of the present study was to develop protein-loaded micro-particles using biodegradable polymer, polycaprolactone (PCL) and hydrogel from beluga cartilage. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was used as a model for protein/ peptide molecules such as GnRH. The double emulsion (W/O/W) technique was selected as one of the most appropriate methods for preparing a drug delivery system for soluble proteins in water. The first emulsion was prepared using ultrasonic and the mechanical agitator was used for achieving the second emulsion. The hydrogel prepared by enzymatic digestion was used in the first aquatic solution. At the present investigation, three groups were considered as the drug delivery system: G1; (PCL/hydrogel/BSA), G2; (PCL/BSA) and G3; (PCL/Alginate/BSA). Findings showed that the morphology of particles was spherical and non-conglomerated in all groups. The comparison of average particle size among groups was also indicated that the particles.
