“…In addition, Chlorella contains many intracellular phytochemicals which can exhibit antioxidant activities (Shibata et al, ; Wang et al, ). The enhanced antioxidant activity reported in the present study is compatible with that of Zahran and Risha () in Nile tilapia supplemented with 10% Chlorella . As well, the activities of SOD and CAT were significantly increased in the serum of gibel carp fed on Chlorella (Xu et al, ) and Nile tilapia supplemented with Spirulina (Amer, ).…”

“…The most important index for innate immunity is lysozyme activity as it possesses lytic activity against gram‐positive and gram‐negative bacteria (Saurabh & Sahoo, ). In the present study, results of the serum lysozyme activity of Nile tilapia fish before and after A. hydrophila infection are in agreement with those of Zahran and Risha () and Khani, Soltani, Mehrjan, Foroudi, and Ghaeni () in Nile tilapia supplemented with 10% Chlorella and in Koi carp supplemented with different levels of Chlorella , respectively as well as in Oreochromis niloticus and juvenile gibel carp supplemented with Spirulina as indicated by Ragap, Khalil, and Mutawie () and Cao et al (). However, these results are in odds with the findings reached by Saberi, Zorriehzahra, Emadi, Kakoolaki, and Fatemi ().…”

“…Effects of microalgae on intestinal immunity is an area that has not been much exploited yet. However, Zahran and Risha (2014) have reported a positive effect of C. vulgaris on nitric oxide production, which is known to act as a mediator of different cell functions (Choudhury & Saha 2016). An enzyme responsible for nitric oxide synthesis, called inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is the key protein in intestinal immunity, as it controls inflammatory cytokines such as TNFa (Kousoulaki et al 2015).…”

“…Therefore, as solution and alternative route of utilization, this present study agreed with exploitation of functional health and physiological properties of the microalgal for promotion of animal production and health (Azizzat et al 2010). Beyond amelioration of stress-associated growth and performance, supplementation of Chlorella vulgaris could contribute to improved physiological functions of the brain and hypothalamus axis, thereby leading to improved reproduction (Queiroz et al 2016); supplementation of Chlorella vulgaris was also reported to protect against chemical cadmium toxicity via its detoxification in rat model (Kim et al 2009;Elsheikh et al 2018); it was also reported for testicular protection against lead toxicity in Nile tilapia according to reports of Zahran and Risha (2014).…”
