The human gut hosts a diverse microbial community, essential for maintaining overall health. However, antibiotics, commonly prescribed infections, can disrupt this delicate balance, leading to antibiotic-associated diarrhea, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, and even neurological disorders. Recognizing this, probiotics have emerged as promising strategy counteract these adverse effects.

Abstract The emergence of antibiotic‐resistant bacteria (ARBs) and genes (ARGs) in aquaculture underscores the urgent need for alternative veterinary strategies to combat antimicrobial resistance (AMR). These measures are vital reduce likelihood entering a post‐antibiotic era. Identifying environmentally friendly biotechnological solutions prevent treat bacterial diseases is crucial sustainability minimizing use antimicrobials, especially antibiotics. development probiotics with quorum‐quenching (QQ) capabilities presents promising non‐antibiotic strategy sustainable aquaculture. Recent research has demonstrated effectiveness QQ (QQPs) against range significant fish pathogens disrupts microbial communication (quorum sensing, QS) by inhibiting production, replication, detection signalling molecules, thereby reducing virulence factors. With their targeted anti‐virulence approach, QQPs have substantial promise as potential application aquaculture, however, still its early stages requires additional research. Key challenges include determining optimal dosage treatment regimens, understanding long‐term effects, integrating other disease control methods diverse systems.
