“…SOD plays a crucial role in eliminating free radicals, acting as a vital defense mechanism against oxidative stress [43]. SOD facilitates the transformation of the superoxide anion into hydrogen peroxide, which is subsequently catalyzed [44]. Several studies have demonstrated that VC supplementation impacts antioxidant enzyme activity, reducing oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) [30,44,45].…”

The optimal dietary vitamin C (VC) levels for walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) remain undefined. This study aimed to assess the effect of dietary VC levels on the growth performance and biochemical parameters of grower walleye pollock and determine the optimal VC level for their diet. Six experimental diets (VC0, VC1, VC3, VC5, VC7, and VC10) with VC levels of 3.24, 21.92, 63.31, 101.42, 145.46, and 202.51 mg kg−1 diet, respectively, were fed to fish (initial mean weight: 173.5 ± 0.31 g) for 8 weeks. At the end of the feeding trial, fish fed the VC7 and VC10 diets exhibited significantly higher growth (final body weight, weight gain, and specific growth rate) and improved feed utilization (feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio) compared with fish fed the VC0 diet (p < 0.05). The VC3–VC10 diets significantly reduced plasma superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity (p < 0.05). Compared with the VC0 group, fish fed the VC7 and VC10 diets showed significantly elevated growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor-1 levels in plasma (p < 0.05). In conclusion, dietary VC supplementation in walleye pollock improved growth performance and SOD activity. Moreover, broken-line analysis on weight gain indicated that the optimal dietary VC level for grower walleye pollock was approximately 156.42 mg kg−1 diet.

“…The vitamin C diet had no discernible effect on the juvenile yellow catfish, Pelteobagrus fulvidraco's RBC or Ht levels, but it did dramatically boost Hb levels (Liang et al, 2017). According to Yu and Kang (2020), fish-fed diets containing L-ascorbyl-2monophosphate (AMP) 800 mg/kg at 2 weeks and above AMP 200 mg/kg at 4 weeks had significantly greater total RBC counts than fish fed other diets. A powerful immunostimulant that improves lymphocyte activity is vitamin C (Head 1998 and.…”

An essential aspect of aquaculture is the relationship between fish nutrition and welfare. Mortality rates increase as a result of the insufficient nutritional needs of fish, and this calls for the development of artificial diets that meet the needs of fish under the intensive culture system. (Reddy, 2018). Immunological depression and infectious disease outbreaks have been brought on by the fast proliferation of modern aquaculture as

“…Htc and RBC were not significantly altered ( p > 0.05) by the Vitamin C diet in catfish ( Pelteobagrus fulvidraco ), whereas Hb was greatly increased (Liang et al, 2017). Yu et al (2020) found a significant increase in Htc, RBC and Hb in starry flounder, Platichthys stellatus , when they were given Vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Similarly, RBCs and WBCs counts have increased by supplementation of 10% Spirulina in the fish diet (Abdel‐Tawabe et al, 2008).…”

Microalgae are one of the most important sources of natural bioactive compounds, especially those revealing antioxidant activity such as β-carotene. Thus, this study was to compare the effects of dietary Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) or Vitamin E (αtocopherol) with β-carotene extracted from Arthrospira platensis on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) on growth, feed utilization, blood indices, antioxidant activity, non-specific immunological indices and related gene expression. Three hundred and sixty apparent healthy Nile tilapia (5.80 ± 0.286 g) were randomly distributed into four groups. Four isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets were performed. A control diet was compared against three experimental diets supplemented with Vitamin C (0.5 mg kg −1 diet), Vitamin E (1 g kg −1 diet) or β-carotene (0.5 g kg −1 diet) for 10 weeks.According to the results, there was no significant difference in feed intake (p > 0.05) between experimental diets. Dietary Vitamins C and E and β-carotene significantly (p < 0.05) enhanced the weight gain, final body weight, protein efficiency ratio, specific growth rate and apparent protein utilization in all groups, whereas the best FCR (p = 0.017) and the highest weight gain (p = 0.007) were detected in the β-carotene diet. Fish survival rates differed significantly (p < 0.05) amongst treatments, whilst fish fed a diet supplemented with β-carotene recorded the highest survival rate. The supplemental diet with β-carotene boosted the values of the biochemical and haematological parameters (p < 0.05) compared with the control diet. The activities of catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) in the liver (p = 0.0560; p = 0.0032; p = 0.0353 respectively) and tilapia muscles were higher in fish fed either β-carotene or Vitamin E (p = 0.0579; p = 0.1494; p = 0.2145 respectively) than other groups. The highest values of SOD, CAT and immune globulin M-2 gene expression (p < 0.05) were found in fish fed a diet enriched with β-carotene.These results suggested that the dietary incorporation of β-carotene had a superior impact on growth performance, haemato-biochemical and immune-oxidative stress biomarkers in addition to the associated gene expression of Oreochromis niloticus.
