“…The expansion of aquaculture activity requires sustainable solutions involved in enhancing the well-being and productivity of aquatic animals (Hazreen-Nita et al, 2022;Paray et al, 2021). Nowadays, great concern was given to the term "functional nutrition" which means that aquafeed should consider both the essential requirement and supplemental additives to achieve the basic metabolic and physiological functions and enhance the welfare and productivity of aquatic animals (Abdul Kari et al, 2021;Dawood, 2022;Encarnação, 2016). In this regard, many functional additives were applied in aquafeed, such as immunostimulants, growth promoters, probiotics, prebiotics, medicinal herbs, and exogenous enzymes (Bae et al, 2020;Can et al, 2012 b;Zheng et al, 2020).…”

Coriander seeds are among the functional herbal supplements, but their effects on aquatic animals are still lacking. Herein we evaluated the effects of coriander seeds on the growth performance, growth hormone, antibacterial capacity, and immune response of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax). Fish with initial mean weights of 5.08 ± 0.12 g/fish were allocated in four groups (in triplicate) and fed dietary coriander at 0, 5, 10, and 20 g/kg for 150 days. The growth performance, feed utilization, and survival rate of fish-fed dietary coriander meaningfully increased (P<0.05). The protein efficiency ratio gradually increased (P<0.05) in fish-fed coriander seeds compared with the control. On the other hand, the feed conversion ratio was gradually decreased (P<0.05) in fish-fed coriander seeds comparing with the control. The survival rate was markedly increased (P<0.05) in European sea bass-fed dietary coriander regardless of the inclusion level. Further, no differences were seen among fish fed varying levels of coriander (P<0.05). The level of blood growth hormone was markedly higher (P<0.05) in European sea bass-fed dietary coriander at 20 g/kg than fish-fed 0 and 5 g/kg. The abundance of intestinal Vibrio spp. and Faecal Coliform were obviously lower (P<0.05) in fish fed 10 and 20 g/kg than fish fed the coriander-free diet. Further, fish fed 20 g/kg had lower (P<0.05) Vibrio spp. and Faecal Coliform counts than fish fed 10 g/kg. Fish fed dietary coriander had significantly higher (P<0.05) hematocrit, hemoglobulin, red blood cells (RBCs), and white blood cells (WBCs) than fish fed the control. The lysozyme and phagocytic activities were meaningfully increased (P<0.05) in fish fed 10 and 20 g/kg compared with fish fed 0 and 5 g/kg of dietary coriander. In conclusion, dietary coriander could be included in the diets at 10–20 g/kg to improve the growth performance, growth hormone, feed utilization, and immune response of European sea bass.

“…Dietary copper enters the body and is absorbed by the digestive system, synthesized by the liver into copper cyanobrotein and released into the blood, which is mainly involved in the physiological functions of the body in the form of plasma copper cyanobrotein ( 20 ). Most of the endogenous copper is excreted into the gastrointestinal tract along with unabsorbed copper, and a small amount of copper is excreted through other routes ( 21 ). One study found that increased exposure of serum copper was significantly associated with the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and was particularly prominent in women, middle age and participants with improved insulin resistance status, with a 97% increased risk of NAFLD in the highest quartile of copper compared to the lowest quartile ( 22 ).…”

BackgroundTrace metals are essential trace elements for the human body, but insufficient or excessive levels of metal ions can lead to the development of disease. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between dietary intake of copper and the prevalence of kidney stones in U.S. adult population.MethodsWe included data on dietary intake of trace metals from 28,623 adult participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database between 2007 and 2018. Multivariate logistic regression and restricted cubic spline (RCS) dose-response curves were used to explore the association between trace metals and kidney stones, and 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) was performed between the stone formers and non-stone formers to test the validity of the results.ResultsDose-response curves showed a non-linear negative association between dietary copper intake and kidney stones, and an increase in copper intake reduced the risk of kidney stones. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the odds ratio (95% confidence interval) for kidney stones in each quartile of copper intake compared to the lowest quartile were 0.905 (0.808–1.011, p = 0.075), 0.880 (0.785–0.987, p = 0.028) and 0.853 (0.756–0.959, p = 0.009). In addition, similar conclusions were reached after analysis of PSM in the stone formers and non-stone formers groups.ConclusionDietary copper intake was negatively and non-linearly correlated with kidney stones, which is worthy of further research and application in clinical practice.

“…Cu microelement is involved in various biological, physiological, and metabolic functions of aquatic animals, and plays a vital role in growth performance. Cu is also a cofactor for several enzymes involved in the antioxidation capacity and metalloenzyme formation 85 . The dietary incorporation of Cu‐NPs at different concentrations, with the basal diets at 20 mg/kg for 90 days in freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii post larvae, enhanced the growth, survival and immune response, whereas higher doses of 40–80 mg/kg may lead to toxic effects 86 .…”

Nanotechnology is a rising technology dealing with nanoparticle‐based (1–100 nm) organic and inorganic materials. Such technology has a vital role in various industrial sectors, including pharmaceuticals, nuclear energy, fuel and energy, electronics, and bioengineering, while having potential applications to human, animal, plant, and environmental health. Even though nanomaterial applications can cover multi‐areas of biological and natural fields, limited information are available in the aquaculture sector. Nowadays, the aquaculture sector is the most imperative field to meet animal protein requirements for human nutrition, and aquaculture disease outbreaks as well as the aquatic environment pollutants are significant hindrances in producing healthy aquatic products. The current review aims to enlighten the direction of nanotechnology in the aquaculture industry while providing more specific information about inorganic forms of nanoparticles used to develop several types of applications such as antimicrobial, antibiofilm and photocatalytic agents, as well as aquatic animal nutrition in the domain of aquaculture. A large number of inorganic nanoparticles and their use as animal feed and for water treatment are extensively described. Their potential risks in aquaculture are also presented and discussed. The aquaculture nanotechnology applications are expected to contribute to fish health improvement, harmful microbes control, and aquatic products nano‐delivery in the forthcoming years.
