Bacterial diseases of tilapia, their zoonotic potential and risk of antimicrobial resistance
(Wiley, 2023-03-05)Tilapia culture is an important source of income and nutrition to many rural families. Since 2000, the production of tilapia increased and reached domestic and global markets. Major farmed species is Nile tilapia (Oreochromis ... -
Seaweed Gracilariopsis heteroclada, formulated flaked diet, and a combination of both as feed for the abalone Haliotis asinina: Effect on growth and survival
(Springer, 2023-01-27)This paper compares the effect of feeding the abalone Haliotis asinina with seaweed (SW), formulated (FD), and mixed (SW+FD) diets. The feeding experiment, in six replicates, was conducted in a tank facility and ... -
Rapid screening of potential probionts from the gut microbiota of climbing perch, Anabas testudineus
(International Network for Natural Sciences, 2022-09-25)The intestinal microbial community has crucial functions for their vertebrate host. Several studies in fish showed that their gastro-intestinal tract harbors a diverse population of bacteria that supplies exogenous nutrients, ... -
Evaluation of dietary fermented tuna by-product meal as partial replacement for unprocessed tuna by-product meal in fishmeal-based diets for juvenile olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus
(Springer, 2022-12-06)This study examined the effects of feeding fermented tuna by-product (FTBP) on the growth, non-specific immune response, liver and intestinal morphology, and disease resistance of olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. ... -
Production, feeding and storage of Tetraselmis tetrathele paste by electrolytic flocculation
(Springer, 2023-02)An innovative microalgae harvesting technique using electroflocculation was carried out at different voltage treatments (4, 7, and 9 V) using a fabricated voltage regulator and compared with harvesting by electroflocculation ... -
An innovative biofloc technology for the nursery production of Pacific whiteleg shrimp, Penaeus vannamei in tanks
(International Network for Natural Sciences, 2022-10-09)Nursery production of shrimp is usually done in small ponds; however, the use of small and circular tanks with plastic liners is gaining popularity. From an industry standpoint, there is still a need to assess how nursery ... -
Vibrio load and percentage composition of sucrose‐fermenting vibrios in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) cultured in brackish water earthen ponds and biocontrol potential of recycled tilapia‐conditioned greenwater against population growth of V. parahaemolyticus and non‐sucrose‐fermenting vibrios in the grow‐out culture of white leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei)
