“…Cost of feeding was estimated to be 40-60% of the total production cost (Fagbenro, 2005). In order to attain a more economically sustainable and environmentally friendly production, research interest has been directed toward the evaluation and use of unconventional protein sources, particularly from plant products, such as seeds, leaves and other agricultural byproducts (Moustafa et al, 2020;Kumar et al, 2022).…”

“…Cheap protein sources are mostly from plant products, such as leaves, seeds and other agricultural by-products (Afuang et al, 2003;Richter et al, 2003 Kumar et al, 2022). It would be of extra benefit if these plant species are able to grow on degraded and poor lands under stressful environmental conditions requiring lower external energy and still maintain a reasonable production of products rich of nutrient with a potential as feed ingredients (Francis et al, 2001).…”

The animal's need for protein resources for growth is quite expensive. Aquaculture needs a cheap protein source such as plant products. Leaves and seeds of M. oleifera have major quantities of proteins, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. The present study was carried out to physiologically compare the suitability of moringa seeds or leaves as a partial replacement of the total dietary protein for fish meal in practical diets for the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. For the growth experiment, four isocaloricisonitrogenous diets contained 0, 2.92, 8.76, 14.6g/ 100g of moringa seed (MSD). Additionally, four isocaloric-isonitrogenous fermented diets (with 35g/ 100g of crude protein, and 1912.27kcal gross energy/ 100g) contained 0, 5, 10 and 20g/ 100g of moringa leaves (MLD). These diets were reared in a water-circulating system. Hematological parameters were measured, such as hemoglobin content, serum glucose, cholesterol and triacylglycerol levels. The specific growth rate of fish decreased significantly (P< 0.05) at all concentrations when fish were fed with MSD. However, when fed with MLD, the growth remained unchanged at concentrations of 5 and 10% but decreased at a concentration rate of 20% compared to the control group. The 5 and 10% replacement levels of fish meal with moringa leaves were the optimal levels for the maximum growth performance of the Nile tilapia fingerlings, but moringa seeds inhibited the growth rates of the Nile tilapia at all concentrations. Therefore, moringa leaves are suitable for fish nutrition, while moringa seeds are not recommended in food nutrition, which may be due to the presence of anti-nutritional factors and toxic substances, such as tannins, saponins, and inhibitors of trypsin.

“…MOSs are most frequently used in animal diets. These prebiotics improve growth activity, feed utilization, survival rates, the development of immune reactions, and antagonistic activity against aquatic pathogens [186][187][188]. Oligosaccharide-type components have been connected to the development of immunity [189,190] and have been used extensively in diverse fish species such as Psetta maxima [13], Larimichthys crocea [191], Paralichthys olivaceus [192], Rutilus rutilus [193], Piaractus mesopotamicus [194], and Acipenser Persicus [195].…”

Aquaculture is a fast-emerging food-producing sector in which fishery production plays an imperative socio-economic role, providing ample resources and tremendous potential worldwide. However, aquatic animals are exposed to the deterioration of the ecological environment and infection outbreaks, which represent significant issues nowadays. One of the reasons for these threats is the excessive use of antibiotics and synthetic drugs that have harmful impacts on the aquatic atmosphere. It is not surprising that functional and nature-based feed ingredients such as probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, and synbiotics have been developed as natural alternatives to sustain a healthy microbial environment in aquaculture. These functional feed additives possess several beneficial characteristics, including gut microbiota modulation, immune response reinforcement, resistance to pathogenic organisms, improved growth performance, and enhanced feed utilization in aquatic animals. Nevertheless, their mechanisms in modulating the immune system and gut microbiota in aquatic animals are largely unclear. This review discusses basic and current research advancements to fill research gaps and promote effective and healthy aquaculture production.

BackgroundEvidence from animal models suggests a role for the organic ultraviolet filter benzophenone‐3′s (BP‐3) on white blood cells (WBCs). However, BP‐3′s effect on WBCs in humans is unknown.Materials and MethodsWe used National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data from 2003 to 2016. We included participants >6 years with data on urinary BP‐3, urinary creatinine, and WBC count. Quintiles of urinary creatinine‐normalized BP‐3 (CnBP‐3) levels were used in linear regression models adjusting for age, gender, race, body mass index (BMI), smoking status, education level, family income to poverty threshold ratio, survey cycle, and season.ResultsOf the 16 959 participants, 8564 (50.5%) were females, 6602 (38.9%) were White, and 3870 (22.8%) were Black. The mean (standard deviation) age was 37.6 (22.7) years, BMI was 26.8 (7.40) kg/m2, WBC count was 7.22 (2.53) × 109/L, neutrophil count was 4.15 (1.86) × 109/L, and lymphocyte count was 2.25 (1.33) × 109/L and median (interquartile range) of CnBP‐3 was 12.1 (44.9) µg/gm. The highest quintile of CnBP‐3 was associated with significantly lower WBC and neutrophil counts compared to the lowest quintile of CnBP‐3 (Δ quintiles = −137 × 106/L, 95% CI: −249 to −24, p = 0.02 and = −177 × 106/L, 95% CI: −323 to −30, p = 0.02, respectively). In contrast, we did not observe a difference in lymphocyte count between the lowest and highest quintiles of CnBP‐3 in unadjusted or adjusted analyses.ConclusionWe found an inverse relationship between BP‐3 levels and WBC and neutrophil counts, and not with lymphocyte count. Further research is needed to confirm our findings.
