Nutritional strategies focused on the use of phytochemicals as modulators of immunological and physiological responses, as well as antistress and antioxidant therapies and health promoters of the gastrointestinal tract have attracted increased interest in animal production. Over the past two decades, several studies have reported positive results of using plant essential oils (EOs) as dietary additive in several farm animal species. Recently, these nutritional alternatives have been evaluated and reported in fish production in order to enhance the resistance to diseases and prevent outbreaks, as well as to improve fish growth, animal welfare and feed utilization. However, despite the diverse and relevant biological activities reported, these phytochemicals are composed of often unstable and volatile molecules, which makes the chemical and physical characteristics of the EOs important aspects to be considered in fish nutrition research. This review summarizes the current knowledge regarding the use of plant EOs as fish dietary additives, focusing on their potential as modulators of the gut bacterial community and discussing some aspects regarding their stability in feeds.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) (LEO) and geranium (Pelargonium graveolens) (GEO) essential oils on growth, immunity, antioxidant responses and disease resistance of Oreochromis niloticus. Fish (3.04 ± 0.003 g) were fed the basal diet (G 1 ), or the basal diet supplemented with LEO at 200 and 400 mg kg −1 of the diet (G 2 and G 3 ), or GEO at 200 and 400 mg kg −1 of the diet (G 4 and G 5 ), respectively for 12 weeks. Growth indices and feed utilization were significantly improved with G 2 , G 3 and G 5 groups. Also, a significant increase in protein content of the whole body was recorded in all groups. G 2 and G 5 showed a significant rise of both catalase activity and reduced glutathione content with a significant incline in the MDA level. Lysozyme activity and total IgM levels were significantly increased in G 2 and G 5 groups. G 3 and G 5 groups had a significantly lower intestinal total bacteria, Coliforms, Escherichia coli and Aeromonas spp counts. Following challenge with A. hydrophila, all groups had a high survival rate. In conclusion, LEO and GEO could be a candidate dietary supplementation in fish improving growth performance, feed utilization, oxidative status, immune responses and disease resistance.

“…Despite the improvement in carcass yield and carcass composition, EO supplementation did not change fish growth performance compared to the control group but 1 mL EO kg EO decreased weight gain (Brum et al, 2017). These data suggest that high doses of citralrich EO may impair growth efficiency.…”

ABSTRACT. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation with Cymbopogon flexuosus essential oil (EO) on productive performance, metabolic parameters and body and fillet composition of adult silver catfish, Rhamdia quelen. Total length, condition factor, weight gain, specific growth rate, hepatosomatic index, visceral fat content and fillet composition were not affected by EO supplementation. Plasma total protein, globulin and triglycerides were reduced by EO supplementation. Supplementation with 1 mL EO kg -1 diet increased carcass yield and protein deposition in the carcass, while reducing gonadosomatic index and fat deposition in the carcass when compared to control group. In addition, 1 mL EO kg -1 diet also improved feed intake when compared to 3 mL EO kg -1 diet. Our results suggest that EO up to 1 mL kg -1 diet can be used in fish feed to improve protein deposition and carcass yield of silver catfish.Keywords: Cymbopogon flexuosus, citral, growth performance, gonads, body composition.A suplementação com óleo essencial de capim-limão microencapsulado melhora a deposição de proteína e o rendimento de carcaça de jundiás (Rhamdia quelen) RESUMO. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar o efeito da suplementação na dieta com óleo essencial de Cymbopogon flexuosus (EO) sobre o desempenho produtivo, os parâmetros metabólicos e a composição corporal e de filés de jundiás (Rhamdia quelen) adultos. O comprimento total, o fator de condição, o ganho de peso, a taxa de crescimento específico, o índice hepatossomático, o teor de gordura visceral e a composição dos filés não foram afetados pela suplementação com EO. Os níveis plasmáticos de proteína total, globulina e triglicérides foram reduzidos pela suplementação com EO. A suplementação com 1 mL de EO kg -1 de dieta aumentou o rendimento de carcaça e a deposição de proteína na carcaça, mas reduziu o índice gonadossomático e a deposição de gordura em comparação ao grupo controle. Além disso, 1 mL de EO kg -1 de dieta também melhorou o consumo de ração em comparação com 3 mL de EO kg -1 de dieta. Os resultados sugerem que se pode utilizar até 1 mL de EO kg -1 de dieta na alimentação de peixes para melhorar a deposição de proteína e a produtividade de carcaça de jundiás em fase de engorda. Palavras-chave:Cymbopogon flexuosus, citral, desempenho produtivo, gônadas, composição corporal.
