“…However, a marked increase was observed in the survival rate of silver carp fed VC supplemented diets after the challenge. Also, Tewary and Patra (2008), Liang et al (2017), Han et al (2020) and Hu et al (2020) reported an increase in the fish survival rate. Furthermore, in previous studies, the VC supplementation also improved the immunity against other bacterial species including Edwardsiella tarda , Vibrio alginolyticus , Vibrio harveyi and Escherichia coli in rohu, yellow drum, large yellow croaker, cobia and rainbow trout (Ai et al, 2006; Leal et al, 2017; Misra et al, 2007; Wang et al, 2017; Zhou et al, 2012).…”

Vitamin C (VC) is a necessary nutrient for normal fish physiology and immunity.Therefore, A 60-day feeding trial was designed to evaluate the dietary VC requirements of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix). Six isocaloric and isonitrogenous diets were formulated by incorporation of VC at 0, 50, 100, 200, 400 and 800 mg kg −1 levels and the analysed VC content in diet was 5.7, 51.1, 95.3, 191.6, 370.7 and 757.5 mg kg −1 respectively. At the trial termination, VC supplementation significantly enhanced the growth and feed utilization. The highest values for whole body crude protein were recorded at 95.3 and 191.6 mg kg −1 of VC. In comparison to the basal diet, VC supplementation improved (p < 0.05) the whole body crude fat. Dietary VC had a dose-dependent effect on the white blood cell count and haematocrit. A significant increase in the alkaline phosphatase activity was recorded for fish fed 5.7 to 95.3 mg kg −1 of VC, attaining a constant value afterwards (95.3-757.5 mg kg −1 of VC). In comparison, dietary VC decreased (p < 0.05) the aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase activities. Similarly, the glucose content also decreased significantly from 5.7 to 95.3 mg kg −1 of VC and became constant thereafter. Dietary VC supplementation significantly affected the antioxidant enzyme activities. The liver VC content showed a dose-dependent relation, where the VC content increased with the increase in VC supplementation reaching the highest value at 757.5 mg kg −1 .Moreover, VC-fed fish showed an increased (p < 0.05) survival against Aeromonas hydrophila challenge. On the basis of broken-line regression, the optimum dietary VC requirement of H. molitrix for weight gain% and liver VC content is 61.31 and 241.13 mg kg −1 respectively.

“…As disease inhibitors in the field of aquaculture, it has been observed that Vitamin C has a beneficial impact on the prevention and management of diseases caused by pathogen infections (Le et al, 2021;Han et al, 2019). As reported by Le et al (2021), the inclusion of vitamin C supplement in the dietary regimen of Psammoperca waigiensis, resulted in elevated levels of white blood cells and higher activity of plasma lysozyme.…”

Vitamin C comprises a group of related water-soluble substances that are crucial to the physiology and health of aquatic animals. Most aquatic animals have a limited capacity to synthesize Vitamin C, thus obtaining Vitamin C predominantly from diets. Because of its ability to scavenge free radicals, act as an antioxidant, and reduce inflammation, vitamin C has become increasingly popular as an ingredient for aquatic feed in recent years. However, the amount of vitamin C that various aquatic organisms require differs substantially from one another. This updated review presents a general outline of the possible physiological function of vitamin C for farmed aquatic animals, with an emphasis on the information on growth, antioxidant status, immunity, disease prevention, and reproductive performance, as well as the synergistic effects of vitamin C with other micronutrients such as vitamin E, glucans, and metal elements during the past few years. In addition, the interaction between the gut microbiota of aquatic animals and the dietary vitamin C that they consume is something that has been looked into. When it comes to expanding the use of vitamin C in the aquaculture industry, having a solid understanding of the positive functions and mechanisms that vitamin C possesses is of the utmost significance.
