Insight into the immune and microbial response of the white-leg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei to microplastics
Researchers exposed white-leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) to different concentrations of microplastics for 48 hours and measured immune and microbial responses. The study found that high microplastic concentrations significantly reduced survival rates, altered immune-related gene expression, and disrupted the gut microbial community, suggesting that microplastic pollution may compromise shrimp immune function.

Researchers tested dietary tartaric acid as a feed supplement for Pacific white shrimp and found that moderate doses improved growth performance, digestive enzyme activity, and immune responses. Shrimp fed with tartaric acid also showed enhanced antioxidant markers and higher survival rates when challenged with a bacterial pathogen. The study suggests tartaric acid could be a beneficial organic acid additive in shrimp aquaculture.

Researchers investigated how different dietary phospholipid sources affect the growth, health, and gut microbiota of female Pacific white shrimp broodstock. The study found that shrimp fed krill oil showed the best growth and antioxidant capacity, with increased gut microbiota diversity and reduced potentially harmful bacteria. Evidence indicates that phospholipid supplementation, particularly from krill oil, can improve shrimp broodstock health and beneficial gut microbial communities.
