Effects of Assam tea extract on growth, skin mucus, serum immunity and disease resistance of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) against Streptococcus agalactiae

Abstract: The present study aimed to assess the possible effects of Assam tea (Camellia sinensis) extract (ATE) on growth performances, immune responses, and disease resistance of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus against Streptococcus agalactiae. Five levels of ATE were supplemented into the based diet at 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 g kg-1 feed of Nile tilapia fingerlings (10.9 ± 0.04 g initial weight) in triplicate. After four and eight weeks of feeding, fish were sampled to determine the effects of the tea supplements upon t… Show more

“…In a recent study, curcumin could modulate the immunological capacity of Pacific white shrimp fed contaminated toxin diet (Yu et al, 2018). Moreover, diets supplemented with green tea extract amplified the humoral and mucosal immunity response, improved growth performance and presented higher challenge against S. agalactiae infection in Nile tilapia (Van Doan et al, 2019). Thus, it could be investigated that some feed additives that contain polyphenol and phytogenic active compounds could be useful as immunomodulatory factors against pesticides harmful effects on farmed fish.…”

“…These additives could augment the growth of beneficial microbial colonies in the digestive tract, which leads to enhance feed intake and weight gain of various aquatic species (Safari et al, 2017). Increased resistance against infectious diseases of aquatic species following the administration of different medicinal plants was also shown previously (Van Doan et al, 2019b;Van Doan et al, 2019c;Yin et al, 2008).…”

“…Medicinal plants have widely attracted the aquaculture researchers because of their beneficial influence on fish such as improving the innate immune responses, improving growth, and feed digestibility (Adel et al, 2016b;Mahmoud et al, 2019;Van Doan et al, 2019b;Van Doan et al, 2019c). These additives could augment the growth of beneficial microbial colonies in the digestive tract, which leads to enhance feed intake and weight gain of various aquatic species (Safari et al, 2017).…”
