Protective role of probiotics or Spirulina platensis supplementation against mercury-induced hematological, histopathological, and antioxidant-immune gene dysregulation in Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
It is demonstrated that probiotics or S. platensis effectively counteract Hg-induced hematological, histopathological, and molecular stress in Nile tilapia, underscoring their potential as sustainable dietary interventions to enhance fish health and aquaculture productivity under heavy metal exposure.
Background:
Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) production faces persistent threat from Aeromonas hydrophila, the causative agent of Motile Aeromonas Septicemia, whose virulence is substantially amplified under thermal stress. Antibiotic-dependent disease management has accelerated multidrug resistance, necessitating...

Growing demand for sustainable aquaculture has intensified interest in non‐antibiotic strategies to enhance fish growth, health, and productivity. Host‐gut‐adapted indigenous probiotics have been proposed as promising alternatives to non‐native commercial strains, though their efficacy requires systematic evaluatio...

Spore-forming Bacillus probiotics have attracted increasing interest as antibiotic-free functional feed additives in shrimp aquaculture. However, evidence for the probiotic potential of Bacillus safensis remains limited. This study evaluated the effects of dietary B. safensis NPUST1 on growth performance, innate immuni...
