Long-term administration of benfotiamine benefits the glucose homeostasis of juvenile blunt snout bream Megalobrama amblycephala fed a high-carbohydrate diet

This study aimed to investigate the effects of benfotiamine on growth performance, glucose homeostasis and intermediary glucose metabolism of blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala). A total of 240 fish (average body weight: 24.24 ± 0.05 g) were randomly distributed into 12 tanks and fed three diets (control, diet with 30% carbohydrate; HC, diet with 43% carbohydrate; HCB, HC diet supplemented with 2.85 mg/kg benfotiamine) for 12 weeks.
