This study explored the effects of mango seed (MS) powder supplementation on growth, immune response, gene expression, and intestinal morphology Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) over an 8-week period. A total 300 fingerlings (average weight 15.29 ± 0.05 g) were divided into five treatment groups fed either a basal diet or one four experimental diets containing MS at concentrations 10 (MS10), 20 (MS20), 40 (MS40), 80 (MS80) g kg−1. The results demonstrated that MS-supplemented experienced significant improvements (p < 0.05) in gain (WG), specific growth rate (SGR), survival (SR) compared to control group (0 kg−1 MS). MS-treated also showed increase height branching villi along entire length intestine, as well significantly higher villus-to-crypt depth ratio (V/C), indicating enhanced health functionality. Moreover, although did not peroxidase activity, it lead activity skin mucus serum lysozyme, with upregulated expression immune-related (IL-1, IL-8, LBP) antioxidant genes (GST-α, GPX, GSR). Polynomial regression analysis identified optimal dosage 36.43–45 for effectively improving immunity, immuno-oxidant tilapia. These emphasize promising natural supplement and, potentially, other freshwater fish widely used aquaculture.

Chinese herbal medicines have become a new green feed additive in the aquaculture industry. The aim of this study is to investigate effects traditional (Isatidis radix, Forsythia suspensa, and Schisandra chinensis) on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, intestinal microbiota hybrid snakehead (Channa maculata ♀ × Channa argus ♂). A total 600 fish (mean weight: 15.85 ± 0.15 g) were randomly assigned five groups, including control group (CG), I. radix extract (IRE), F. suspensa (FSE), S. chinensis (SCE), medicine mixture (CHMM; extracts at ratio 1:1:1) for 6 weeks. results show that IRE-supplemented diet improved survival rate (SR), efficiency (FE), condition factor (CF) compared others. Compared group, activity superoxide dismutase (SOD) plasma intestine was significantly increased FSE CHMM whereas content malondialdehyde (MDA) liver reduced SCE group. 16s rRNA analysis indicates dietary supplementation with promoted proliferation Fusobacteriota, while IRE alpha diversity bacteria. In conclusion, addition improves growth, health, modulates positively.

The objective of this study was to investigate the impact adding fermented herbal extracts (FHE) derived from mulberry leaf (Morus alba), Javanese turmeric (Curcuma xanthorrhiza), and fingerroot (Boesenbergia rotunda) diet tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) on their growth, moulting performance, feed efficiency, nutrient retention. main used in trial a commercially manufactured pellet; then, five different doses FHE supplementation were used: 0 mL/kg (P0, control), 50 (P1), 100 (P2), 150 (P3), 200 (P4). Weight gain, average daily length gain shrimps fed P2 significantly higher than that those control diet. A similar result observed performance. application showed superior results enhancing efficiency cultured shrimp. Thus, protein energy retention P. monodon better treatment groups. P0 had lowest crude protein, while P3 diets highest content any group. Crude lipid lower supplemented with compared In addition, contents found P1 Based findings, it is recommended juvenile contain for best effects.

Abstract Background The study was to examine the effects of Mesosphaerum suaveolens (MS) leaf extract on growth performance, whole body composition, immunological responses, hematological parameters, digestive enzymes, and antioxidant status in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus). Methods A total 525 carp, with an average weight 110.0 ± 1.0 g, were utilized a 70-day feeding experiment. Fish randomly allocated one five groups. Each group had triplicate tank 35 fish per tank. Dietary treatment composed basal diet given control (MS0); MS1, MS2, MS3, MS4 substituted 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 g/kg diet, respectively. Fish, relative percent survival (RPS) measured 14 days after Aeromonas hydrophila (1x107 cells/mL) at end trial. Results Significant enhancements shown performance indicators body's crude lipid moisture fed increasing levels MS compared control. Serum triglycerides, cholesterol, protein, glucose, globulin, albumin, oxalate transaminase, glutamic pyruvate serum content red blood cells, hemoglobin, hemocrit, white cells significantly increased, mean cell hemoglobin concentrations decreased MS-supplemented diets. The liver catalase enzyme, capacity, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase activities malondialdehyde lower groups supplementation improved respiratory burst, myeloperoxidase, lysozyme, alternative complement, ceruloplasmin, antiprotease, haemagglutination, bacterial agglutination, immunoglobulin After being exposed A. for seventy days, that extracts showed better rate than experiment; highest rates seen MS3 MS4. transcriptional examination these gene expressions spleen head kidney 14-day infection elevated expression major beta 2 microglobulin (β2M), Toll-like receptor 22 (TLR 22), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα), Lysozyme-C, Lysozyme-G. Conclusions Overall, present research's results suggest extract's promotion, make it acceptable option use as feed additive farms.
