Abstract This study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluating the inclusion of β‐glucan in aquaculture animal diets its impact on their health outcomes. Relevant studies were identified from Scopus Web Science databases. A total 82 primary published between 1996 2024 reviewed, which 70 included meta‐analysis. The results revealed that application animal's significantly enhanced specific growth rate (SGR; mean effect, g = 2.71; p < 0.001), feed conversion ratio (FCR; −3.88; 0.0001) lowered mortality after exposure pathogens. Likewise, had positive influence ( innate immune parameters (lysozyme phagocyte activity, NBT, ACH50, IgM). found effects β‐glucans varied among marine freshwater fish where fishes 2.05–6.57) exhibit better performance. also negative correlation fish's response trophic level, suggesting with higher levels may be less efficient at absorbing this bio‐stimulant.

Prebiotics, such as saccharides in honey, play a crucial role improving gut microbiota, digestion, and immune function. This study evaluates the effects of Kapok flower honey on growth performance, digestive enzyme activity, intestinal morphology, microbiota common carp (Cyprinus carpio). A completely randomized design was implemented with four supplementation levels (0% control, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%) applied to juvenile C. carpio diets over 30 days. Growth feed utilization, microvilli structure, amylase activity were analyzed using advanced techniques, including high performance liquid chromatography, scanning electron microscopy, biochemical assays. contains fructooligosaccharides (FOS, 14.76%) inulin (6.6%). Supplementation at 1% significantly improved weight gain, conversion ratio, specific rate. Amylase increased supplementation, peaking 24.13 ± 3.11 U g-1 protein for group. Gut morphology analysis revealed longer, denser higher perimeter ratios honey-treated groups than controls. Microbiota showed beneficial Bacillus spp. exclusively honey-supplemented groups. Honey saccharides, particularly FOS inulin, enhance health carp. is optimal, efficiency fostering microbiota. These findings highlight cost-effective, natural prebiotic aquaculture.

ABSTRACT Global demand for animal protein has increased dramatically due to the exponential development of human population, which in turn led intensification aquaculture. However, aforementioned fact impose stress on cultivable organisms, resulting susceptibility infectious diseases. Alternatively, this situation warranted search an environmentally friendly approach replace application various chemical, physical, and biological processes that fail cope with required standards. In context, biofloc technology (BFT) emerged as a viable technique aquaculture management sustainable benign proven have no adverse effects. BFT provides conducive environment aquatic species system sustainability. Also, by maintaining C:N ratio, microbiome offers appropriate carbon source recycles waste. As well, addition probiotics prebiotics (polysaccharides) certainly improves host's antioxidant status, innate immunity, disease resistance.

When supplemented individually, these significantly reduced feed conversion ratio while promoting weight gain, with C-administered groups showing most pronounced differences. Further, observed that RBE, when fed 0.4 concentrations, enhanced rates superoxide anion production phagocytosis by head kidney leukocytes. Moreover, C RBE β-glucan concentration increased serum lysozyme activity. showed highest after Aeromonas hydrophila infection.
