Five densities of Chlorella saccharophila var. saccharophila, 0.5×10^<6>, 1×10^<6>, 3×10^<6>, 5×10^<6> and 8×10^<6>, cells・ml^<-1>, were prepared for the test series. The densities were maintained by continuous pumping of a concentrated C.saccharophila culture with a micro-pump at a constant rate (30ml・h^<-1>). Food conversion rate was calculated based on caloric content of the rotifer culture. Further, culture performance was also estimated using food conversion times growth rate as index (again based on caloric content). The culture experiments were conducted at 25°C. The highest food conversion rate was observed at 1×10^<6> cells・ml^<-1>; however, performance index showed its highest value at 3×10^<6> cells・ml^<-1>. It can be concluded that the latter cell concentration is closer to the optimum density of C.saccharophila for practical intensive mass culture of rotifer.}, pages = {57--61}, title = {シオミズツボワムシ(Brachionus plicatilis)の摂餌と成長に及ぼす餌料密度の影響}, volume = {33}, year = {} }
