“…The activities of digestive enzymes reflect the development level of the digestive tract and digestive capacity of animals (Darafsh et al, 2020). Hence, digestive enzymes activities can be used as an indicator of nutritional status in the early stages of life and also for understanding the nutritional needs (Albro et al, 1985).…”

An 8-week growth trial was performed to evaluate the effects of grape seed proanthocyanidins (GSPs) on growth, digestive enzymes, body composition, intestinal microbiota, serum immunological, anti-oxidative and biochemical parameters of juvenile hybrid sturgeon (Acipenser baeri Brandt ♀ × A. schrenckii Brandt ♂). Fish were randomly divided to control, GSPs-50 and GSPs-100 groups, which were fed with a basal diet and basal diet supplemented with 50 and 100 mg/kg GSPs, respectively. Growth performance and digestive enzymes were improved by GSPs in sturgeon (p < .05).Lysozyme was clearly increased in serum when sturgeon fed with GSPs diets, while the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) displayed opposite trend (p < .05).Myeloperoxidase and glutathione peroxidase in serum of GSPs-50 were higher than control and GSPs-100 (p < .05). Serum parameters showed alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase of GSPs-50 were lower than control (p < .05). Compared with the control treatment, GSPs-100 reduced alanine aminotransferase and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase and increased aspartate aminotransferase and lactate dehydrogenase (p < .05). High-throughput sequencing revealed that adding 50 mg/kg GSPs not only modified the microbiota diversity, but also reduced the relative abundance of Aeromonas in sturgeon intestine. In conclusion, GSPs are a promising feed additive to promote growth, immunity, antioxidant and digestive enzyme activities and improve serum biochemical parameters and intestinal microbiota of hybrid sturgeon.

“…Bacteria of the genus Bacillus have long been used as probiotics in aquaculture with numerous beneficial effects on their hosts, such as increasing growth performance, enhancing feed digestibility, the production of exogenous enzymes, enhancing immunity against pathogens, and stimulating microbiota populations to inhibit pathogenic colonization (Kuebutornye et al 2019;RingØ 2020). The high activity of digestive enzymes indicates an increase in the development of the intestine of fish and its ability to digest feed (Darafsh et al 2019). According to Dawood and Khosio (2016), protease, lipase, and amylase are the main enzymes responsible for feed digestion in the digestive tract of fish.…”

Abstract. Putra AN, Mustahal, Syamsunarno MB, Hermawan D, Fatimah DG, Putri PB, Sevia, Isnaini R, Herjayanto M. 2021. Dietary Bacillus NP5 supplement impacts on growth, nutrient digestibility, immune response, and resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila infection of African Catfish, Clarias gariepinus. Biodiversitas 22: 253-261. This study aims to investigate the effects of Bacillus NP5 supplementation as a probiotic on growth, immune response, and resistance of African catfish to Aeromonas hydrophila infection. Catfish with an initial weight of 6.8 ± 0.1 g were fed with different doses of Bacillus NP5 (0%, 1.1%, 1.2% B, 1.3%, and 1.4%) with three replications and reared for 60 days. The first 45 days were used to observed growth performance, and the last 15 days were used to perform challenge tests against A. hydrophila infection. The results showed that the treatment of 1.2% Bacillus NP5 results in the highest specific growth rate (2.55±0.28 day-1) and increased protein and lipid digestibility significantly (P<0.05). Treatment of 1.1-1.3% Bacillus NP5 increase amylase and lipase activity that significantly higher than 0% Bacillus NP5 treatment. Supplementation of Bacillus NP5 significantly increased the leukocyte, phagocytic index, and survival rate in African catfish after A. hydrophila infection. Therefore, the supplementation of 1.2% Bacillus NP5 in the feed increased the growth, immune response, and African catfish resistance to the infection.

“…Most of the studied bacilli probiotics have shown a positive effect on fish performance including final weight, weight gain, specific growth rate and feed digestibility (e.g. Adineh et al, 2013;Darafsh et al, 2020;Giri et al, 2014;Günther & Jiménez-Montealegre, 2004;Mexis et al, 2009;Ozório et al, 2015;Ramos et al, 2016;Soltani et al, 2019;Yazici et al, 2015). However, the present study exhibited no significant effect by application of B. subtilis and B.…”

Today, there is a highly concern about food safety due to the extensive changes that might happen during the chain of food production.Therefore, when talking about the nutritional quality, it is necessary to consider the whole food production chain. In this regard, it would be necessary to pay attention to stages of preparation, production and consumption of feed ingredients for the animals as the protein
