Using synthetic antibiotics/chemicals for infectious bacterial pathogens and parasitic disease control causes beneficial microbial killing, produces multi-drug resistant pathogens, and residual antibiotic impacts in humans are the major threats to aquaculture sustainability. Applications of herbal products to combat microbial and parasitic diseases are considered as alternative approaches for sustainable aquaculture. Essential oils (EOs) are the secondary metabolites of medicinal plants that possess bioactive compounds like terpens, terpenoids, phenylpropenes, and isothiocyanates with synergistic relationship among these compounds. The hydrophobic compounds of EOs can penetrate the bacterial and parasitic cells and cause cell deformities and organelles dysfunctions. Dietary supplementation of EOs also modulate growth, immunity, and infectious disease resistance in aquatic organisms. Published research reports also demonstrated EOs effectiveness against Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, Gyrodactylus sp., Euclinostomum heterostomum, and other parasites both in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, different infectious fish pathogenic bacteria like Aeromonas salmonicida, Vibrio harveyi, and Streptococcus agalactiae destruction was confirmed by plant originated EOs. However, no research was conducted to confirm the mechanism of action or pathway identification of EOs to combat aquatic parasites and disease-causing microbes. This review aims to explore the effectiveness of EOs against fish parasites and pathogenic bacteria as an environment-friendly phytotherapeutic in the aquaculture industry. Moreover, research gaps and future approaches to use EOs for sustainable aquaculture practice are also postulated.

The genus Mentha (mint) belongs to the Lamiaceae family, which includes 25 to 30 species. The species of this genus have been known for their medicinal and aromatherapeutic properties since ancient times and possess a significant economical and commercial reputation. Several species of Mentha are widely used in culinary and traditional medicines in many parts of the world. Essential oils from Mentha species have been commonly used as flavoring substance in beverages, providing a “fresh‐like” aroma and taste. Chemical analyses of Mentha species have yielded a number of important phytocompounds belonging to different classes, such as organic acids, flavonoids, sterols, alkaloids, lignans, hydrocarbons, fatty acids, tocopherols, proteins, free sugars, etc. Moreover, the main compounds in mints are essential oils, phenolics, and flavonoids. This review reports the available information on the present status (literature up to early 2020) of the Mentha species and summarizes the chemical constituents, traditional and culinary uses, cultivation, and biological properties. In addition, comprehensive analysis of the antibacterial studies conducted on Mentha species is represented. In effect, Mentha species have been presented here as a viable alternative source of many biological and chemically active compounds which are already known to be of great economic, pharmaceutical, and nutritional importance.

Fish consumption has increased substantially in recent years, and to maintain this sector's expansion, sustainable aquaculture development with adequate measures of quality, sanitation and good management practices is important (FAO, 2020). However, as intensive husbandry systems are implemented, there are health barriers (such as epizootics) that require interventions through therapeutic products . Thus, the use of therapeutics in aquaculture, especially antibiotics, has increased. However, there are many concerns over its effects on the surrounding ecosystems and global health (Liu et al., 2017).Several stress factors, such as sudden temperature variations, water quality and nutrition, handling and high density of organisms in a limited space, can increase their susceptibility to pathogens by for example impairing fish immune defences (Pulkkinen et al., 2010;. To avoid economic losses, many producers opt to use veterinary drugs, disinfectants and other chemical compounds for disease prevention and treatment (Liu et al., 2017). However, despite the many side effects xenobiotics might have in the environment, many countries still lack appropriate use regulations and control (FDA, 2020).Undue administration of chemotherapeutic agents may pose toxic risks to the animals concerned and to manipulators, consumers and nontarget organisms (Rico & Brink, 2014).
