“…In the same way, propolis showed bactericidal properties against Aeromonas hydrophila in vitro, but not necessarily in vivo [50]. The chemical composition of propolis as well as bioactive compounds concentration can vary extensively [9,51], hence, it also can explain variable results on fish immune system.…”

“…In addition, the indiscriminate use of antibiotics to control fish disease outbreaks resulted in selection of several resistant pathogenic microorganisms [5,6] and undermine the profitability and sustainability of aquaculture [7]. Thus, the use of natural compounds to modulate the immune system and growth of aquatic organism is a promising method with low-environmental impact for disease control [4,8] since it does not result neither bacterial resistance nor residues in fish flesh [9].…”

The immunomodulatory and growth promoter effects of brown propolis ethanolic extract (PEE) were determined in pacu. Fish (28.4±0.4 g) were randomly distributed into 12 polyethylene circular tanks (250 L, 30 fish per tank) and fed for 60 days with a commercial diet (32% crude protein) supplemented with 0.0, 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5% (v/w) of PEE in a totally randomized experimental design (n=3). Fish organic defense cells numbers such as thrombocytes and neutrophils increased (p<0.05) in fish fed 3.0% dietary PEE. Serum lysozyme concentration also increased (p<0.05) in fish fed 1.5 and 3.0% PEE supplementation when compared to unsupplemented fish. Growth parameters were not influenced (p>0.05) by treatments. Moreover, dietary PEE decreased (p<0.05) fish intestinal muscular thickness when compared to control treatment. Intestine villi height also significantly decreased in fish fed 3.0% PEE. Long term dietary PEE at 3.0% supplementation level modulated fish nonspecific immune system and it is a non-toxic substance for pacu.

“…A ação da própolis sobre os parasitas ainda não está bem elucidada, porém, sabe-se que os flavonoides podem afetar a osmorregulação e os tecidos conjuntivos dos parasitas, bem como reduzir a eclodibilidade de ovos imaturos (Hegazi et al, 2007;Cruz-Cervantes et al, 2018). Hegazi et al (2007) avaliaram o efeito in vitro do extrato de própolis sobre o tegumento de vermes adultos de Fasciola gigantica e observaram que a concentração de 30 µg/mL provocou lesão tecidual severa, de forma que, após 24 horas, não havia presença visível de tegumento nos parasitas, mas apenas uma massa de estruturas fibrosas.…”

Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito antiparasitário de diferentes dosagens do extrato alcoólico da própolis no controle de helmintos gastrointestinais em ovinos Santa Inês. Foram utilizadas 32 ovelhas da raça Santa Inês, distribuídas em delineamento experimental de blocos completos casualizados, com quatro tratamentos e oito repetições. Os tratamentos foram: 10 mL de água; 10 mL de álcool 70%; 5 mL de extrato alcoólico de própolis (EAP) a 30% e 10 mL de EAP 30%. Os tratamentos foram administrados por via oral, em dose única. Os efeitos dos tratamentos foram avaliados pela contagem de ovos por gramas de fezes (OPG), referentes aos 1, 3, 7 e 21 dias após a administração. As administrações orais de 10 mL de água ou 10 mL de álcool 70% não demonstraram efeito na redução da OPG. A utilização de 5 mL de EAP 30% reduziu a OPG nos dias 3 e 7, reduzindo sua eficácia no dia 21, enquanto a utilização de 10 mL de EAP 30% reduziu a OPG em todos os dias avaliados, ambas por via oral. Desse modo, a administração via oral, em dose única, de 10 mL de extrato alcoólico da própolis a 30%, reduziu de maneira mais efetiva a número de OPG, demonstrando efeito antiparasitário, podendo ser utilizada no controle de verminoses como um método alternativo aos produtos químicos sintéticos.

“…In aquatic studies, propolis and HBP were investigated to support growth and immunity. Growth performance and immune response were improved by dietary propolis in Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) (Hassaan, Nagar, Salim, Fitzsimmons, & El‐Haroun, 2019; Meurer, Matiuzzi da Costa, De Barros, Leal de Oliveira, & Da Paixão, 2009), rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss ) (Deng et al., 2011; Tuna Keleştemur & Seven, 2013), Mozambique tilapia ( Oreochromis mossambicus ) (Acar, 2018), eel ( Anguilla japonica ) (Bae, Park, Lee, Okorie, & Bai, 2012), Chinese sucker ( Myxocyprinus asiaticus ) (Zhang, Gong, Yu, & Yuan, 2009) and European bass ( Dicentrarchus labrax ) (Šegvić‐Bubić et al, 2013) (see review (de la Cruz‐Cervantes, Benavides‐González, Sánchez‐Martínez, Vázquez‐Sauceda, & Ruiz‐Uribe, 2018)). However, there are only a few studies focusing on the effects of dietary HBP on fish physiology.…”

Effects of hydroalcoholic extract of honeybee pollen on growth performance, flesh quality, and immune and stress response response of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

The effects of dietary hydroalcoholic extract of honeybee pollen (HBPE) on growth performance, flesh quality, immunity and stress response were investigated. Two hundred fifty‐five rainbow trout (11.14 ± 1.06 g) were fed five diets containing increasing levels of HBPE: control, 0.25HBPE (0.25 g HBPE/kg), 0.5HBPE (0.5 g HBPE/kg), 1HBPE (1 g HBPE/kg) and 1.5HBPE (1.5 g HBPE/kg). After 56 days, rainbow trout fed the 0.5HBPE and 1HBPE diets displayed significantly higher weight gain (49.58 and 53.25 g) and protein efficiency (2.88 and 2.83) compared to those fed the control diet (4.89 and 2.05), respectively (p < .05). For flesh quality, higher protein content in the whole body of fish fed the 1HBPE (633.3 g/kg) and 1.5HBPE (640.9 g/kg) diets was observed when compared to other groups (p < .05). There were no significant differences in the saturated and monounsaturated fatty acid content. Individuals fed the 1HBPE (234.5 g/kg) and 1.5HBPE (234.7 g/kg) diets exhibited higher levels of n‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in the muscle than the other groups (p < .05). In terms of the immune system, the serum lysozyme and alternative complement pathway haemolytic activity levels in the 0.5HBPE (47.66 and 148.00 U/ml) and 1HBPE (46.00 and 146.33 U/ml) treatments were higher than the other treatments (p < .05). When Aeromonas hydrophila was exposed to different dosages of HBPE, a higher inhibitory zone resulted from 1,000 and 1,500 mg/ml dosage. The lower levels of plasma cortisol were observed in the 1HBPE and 1.5HBPE groups after the complement stress test. Collectively, the present findings suggest that the 1HBPE diet supported superior growth, flesh quality, immunity and stress response of rainbow trout.
