“…These plant‐based products are reasonably priced, easily accessible and environment‐friendly. Moreover, they have limited side effects on the production of aquatic animals (Bandeira et al, ). Generally, unused or inedible parts of these plants have been used as feed additives like bergamot peel in the current study.…”

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of essential oil extracted from bergamot (Citrus bergamia) peel on growth performance and health status of European sea bass juveniles (5.10 + 0.05 g). Test diets supplemented with 0.0%, 0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0% bergamot peel oil (BPO0, BPO0.5, BPO1 and BPO2) were fed to experimental fish for 60 days. At the end of the experiment, the best growth performance was obtained in the BPO0.5 and BPO1 groups (p < .05). No significances were found for haematological parameters including red blood cell count, haematocrit and haemoglobin concentration at the end of the feeding experiment. There were significant differences between the total protein, cholesterol, alkaline phosphatase and glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (p < .05) between the BPO0.5 and BPO1 supplemented groups and the control group with no BPO addition. The addition of BPO showed significant differences in immune parameters such as lysozyme activity, total myeloperoxidase content, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activity between BPO0 and BPO supplemented groups (p < .05). It might be concluded that dietary addition of 0.5%‐1% BPO could increase the growth performance and feed utilization with improved health status in sea bass juveniles.

“…As a result, there has been a growing interest in alternatives to improve production without affecting the environment. The use of medicinal plants and their major compounds as dietary additives has attracted much attention worldwide and has been the subject of several studies, assisting in the control of diseases, improving growth, and as immunostimulant (Bandeira Jr. et al, ; Pês et al, ; Saccol et al, ; Souza et al, ; Zeppenfeld et al, ).…”

The effects of dietary supplementation of graded level (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 ml/kg diet) of Citrus aurantium essential oil (EOCA) on the growth, metabolic, and oxidative parameters of silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen) were investigated in a 60‐day growth trial. Fish fed with 2.0 ml EOCA per kg exhibited significantly better growth performance than those fed the control diet. Glucose, lactate, and protein levels in liver and muscle were altered significantly by dietary addition of EOCA. Hepatic lipid peroxidation levels, measured using thiobarbituric acid reactive substance and lipid hydroperoxides assays, were reduced in animals receiving the diet containing EOCA. Superoxide dismutase activity was higher, while glutathione S‐transferase activity was lower in the liver of fish receiving 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 ml EOCA per kg of diet than in control. The nonprotein thiols content was higher in fish receiving the EOCA‐containing diet. Thus, dietary addition of EOCA improved growth, biochemical, and antioxidant parameters in silver catfish and could be useful as dietary supplement.

“…Consequently, the high costs of manufactured drugs can be avoided. In addition, the tendency to use more environmentally friendly and less dangerous products, together with the limited side effects in animals (Bandeira et al., ), makes the use of these plants an important means to improve the health and nutrition of farmed fish. Extracts and essential oils (EOs) of medicinal plants contain phenolics, polyphenols, alkaloids, quinones, terpenoids and polypeptide compounds, which are natural and effective alternatives to antibiotics, agrochemicals, vaccines and other synthetic compounds (Amaral, Mira, Nogueira, Silva, & Florencio, ; Carbone & Faggio, ; Franz, Baser, & Windisch, ; Guardiola et al., ; Immanuel et al., ; Pês, Saccol, Ourique, Londero, Gressler, Finamor et al., ; Pês, Saccol, Ourique, Londero, Gressler, Golombieski et al., ; Saccol et al., ; Zheng et al., ).…”

Myrcia sylvatica essential oil in the diet of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata L.) attenuates the stress response induced by high stocking density

et al. 2018

The effects of diet supplemented with Myrcia sylvatica essential oil (EOMS) on growth and stress tolerance to different stocking densities were assessed in Sparus aurata. Initially, three experimental groups were established: (i) control, (ii) 1.0 and (iii) 2.0 ml EOMS/kg dry feed. After 90 days, nine fish per group were anaesthetized, weighed and sampled for metabolic analysis. The remaining fish were divided into two different conditions: low (LD—5 kg/m3) and high (HD—40 kg/m3) stocking densities, constituting a final experimental setup with six treatments. After 22 days, 10 individuals per treatment were anaesthetized and sampled for biochemical analysis. EOMS feeding for 90 days did not interfere with growth, although it was effective in reducing cortisol levels and the activation of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. The HD interfered in growth performance, increased the lactate levels in the control group, reducing also hepatic glycogen levels without dependence on diet supplementation. The 2.0 ml EOMS + LD group increased the growth parameters and decreased the cortisol and triglycerides levels. Additionally, metabolism adjustment was observed to provide energy during LD and HD conditions, indicating that diets supplemented with EOMS produce metabolic reorganization to maintain body homeostasis, suggesting its use as a beneficial supplement in fish.
