  1. EAA, essential amino acid (Thr, Val, Met, Ile, Leu, Phe, Lys); NEAA, nonessential amino acid (Asp, Ser, Glu, Gly, Ala, Cys, Tyr, His, Arg, Pro); TAA, total amino acid.
  2. Values represent the mean ± S.E. (n = 3 replicate tanks), 3 turtles were sampled for each tank. Values within the same row having different superscripts are significantly different (p < 0.05).
