Synergistic effects of Moringa oleifera and spirulina supplementation combined with short-term fasting on gill integrity and bacterial load in heat-stressed Nile Tilapia infected with Aeromonas hydrophila

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...

Protective effects of Moringa oleifera and Arthrospira platensis against deltamethrin-induced toxicity in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

Deltamethrin exposure significantly reduced hemoglobin, erythrocyte indices, total protein, albumin, leukocyte counts, and globulin levels, while increasing liver enzymes, blood glucose, urea, and creatinine, indicating anemia, hepatic and renal dysfunction, and physiological stress.

Effects of Indigenous Probiotic Bacterial Strains ( Rossellomorea marisflavi , Micrococcus luteus , and Paucilactobacillus vaccinostercus ) on Growth Performance, Survival, and Haematological Parameters of Nile Tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus )

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...

Enhancement of growth, intestinal microbiota, and innate immune protection against Vibrio alginolyticus in white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) following dietary administration with Bacillus safensis NPUST1.

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...

Effects of dietary antimicrobial peptides on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, immune response and disease resistance of juvenile Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

Introduction The study was conducted to investigate effects of dietary antimicrobial peptide, tilapia-derived endogenous piscidin 4 (TP4), on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, immune response and disease resistance of juvenile Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Methods Four diets with supplementation of 0 g/...
