Utilizing the potential of Saussurea lappa in aquaculture industry: a review on immune enhancement and pollution remediation
This review examines the potential of Saussurea lappa, a medicinal plant, as a natural immune booster and pollution remediation tool in aquaculture. Researchers found that compounds from the plant show anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties that could help farmed fish resist disease. The study highlights the plant as a promising eco-friendly alternative to synthetic chemicals in fish farming.
Dietary Arthrospira platensis in Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss): A Means to Reduce Threats Caused by CdCl2 Exposure?
Researchers investigated whether dietary Spirulina supplementation could protect rainbow trout from cadmium chloride toxicity, evaluating growth performance, immune response, and tissue damage to assess its potential as a protective feed additive in aquaculture.
The protective efficacy of dual dietary rosemary plus cinnamon mix against lead nitrate-induced immune suppression, genotoxicity, and oxidant/antioxidant status in Nile tilapia fingerlings
Researchers tested whether a dietary mix of rosemary and cinnamon could protect Nile tilapia from the harmful effects of lead exposure. Fish exposed to lead showed reduced growth, suppressed immunity, increased oxidative stress, and DNA damage, but those fed the herbal supplement showed significant improvements across all measures. The study suggests that rosemary and cinnamon supplementation may help mitigate heavy metal toxicity in farmed fish.
Potential of Chinese Yam (Dioscorea polystachya Turczaninow) By-Product as a Feed Additive in Largemouth Bass (Micropterus salmoides): Turning Waste into Valuable Resources
Chinese yam by-product added to largemouth bass feed at 0.1-1.6% improved antioxidant capacity, reduced oxidative stress markers, and enhanced beneficial gut bacteria while decreasing potential pathogens, suggesting it as a viable sustainable aquaculture feed additive.
Functional Additives in a Selected European Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) Genotype: Effects on the Stress Response and Gill Antioxidant Response to Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) Treatment
Researchers evaluated how functional feed additives affected stress response and gill antioxidant capacity in a selectively bred high-growth European sea bass genotype, finding that dietary supplements could help reinforce oxidative stress tolerance during hydrogen peroxide treatment.
The mitigating effect of Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) on the hemotoxicity of gibberellic acid on juvenile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
Researchers investigated whether Spirulina algae supplementation could protect Nile tilapia fish from blood toxicity caused by gibberellic acid, a plant growth hormone widely used in agriculture that contaminates nearby waterways. Fish fed higher doses of Spirulina showed near-normal blood cell counts and reduced DNA damage after exposure, suggesting the algae has protective antioxidant properties that could help organisms cope with agricultural chemical contamination.
Effects of dietary methanolic extract of hyssop, Hyssopus officinalis, on growth performance, hepatic antioxidant, humoral and intestinal immunity, and intestinal bacteria of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss
Researchers found that dietary supplementation with hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis) methanolic extract in rainbow trout boosted immune markers including leukocyte counts and lysozyme activity, without significantly affecting growth performance, suggesting potential as a natural immune enhancer in aquaculture.
Immunonutrition: facilitating mucosal immune response in teleost intestine with amino acids through oxidant-antioxidant balance
This review explores how specific amino acids can boost the immune response in the intestines of fish by modulating oxidative stress and antioxidant balance. Researchers found that nutrients like glutamine, arginine, and tryptophan help strengthen the mucosal immune barrier in the fish gut, which is important for disease resistance in aquaculture. While focused on fish health, the findings contribute to broader understanding of how nutrition influences gut immunity across species.
Effects of Dietary Rosemary ( Rosmarinus officinalis ) Leaf Powder and Bacillus subtilis on the Growth Performance, Digestive Enzymes, Antioxidant and Immune-Related Gene Expression, and Resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila in Common Carp, Cyprinus carpio
Common carp supplemented with rosemary leaf powder and/or Bacillus subtilis for 56 days showed improved growth, antioxidant enzyme activity, innate immunity, and resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila infection, demonstrating potential as natural feed additives in aquaculture.
The Combination of β-Glucan and Astragalus Polysaccharide Effectively Resists Nocardia seriolae Infection in Largemouth Bass (Micropterus salmoides)
Researchers tested a combination of beta-glucan and astragalus polysaccharide as a natural immunostimulant to help largemouth bass resist a common bacterial infection. The supplement combination was as effective as conventional antibiotics in improving fish survival rates and reducing bacterial loads. The study suggests that natural polysaccharide supplements could offer a viable alternative to antibiotics in aquaculture for managing disease outbreaks.
Sustainable feed formulation to community‐based aquaculture: Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings performance and antioxidant status
This study developed sustainable fish feed formulations for community-based tilapia aquaculture using locally available plant-based ingredients, addressing a need for feeds that reduce dependence on imported fishmeal. Sustainable aquaculture feed reduces both supply chain vulnerability and the indirect environmental footprint of fish farming.
Effects of dietary supplementation of peppermint (Mentha piperita) on growth, survival and haemato-biochemical profile of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) fingerlings
Researchers found that adding peppermint powder to fish feed helped carp grow faster and boosted their immune systems without any harmful effects. This matters because it shows peppermint could replace synthetic chemicals in fish farming, potentially making the fish we eat healthier and more naturally raised. The study suggests that natural plant additives like peppermint might be a safer way to improve fish health in aquaculture.
