“…The main challenge in feed formulation is fulfilling the gap between the nutrient requirement of animals and the available nutrient content in the feed. Fortification or enrichment of the diet with specific individual nutrients or blends of nutrients can fulfill the nutrient deficits while improving the growth and health performance of farm animals [1]. Moreover, when raised in high-density culture conditions, fish are highly susceptible to infectious diseases, which can cause significant economic losses for the farm.…”

A twelve-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of a functional immunostimulant mixture (FIM; nucleotides, β-glucan and vitamins C and E) on growth, feed utilization, innate immunity, digestive enzyme activity, hematological parameters, intestinal morphology and inflammatory gene expressions of olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. A fish meal-based basal diet (control) was formulated, and three other diets were prepared by incorporating 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% FIM into the basal diet (HB0.5, HB1.0 and HB1.5, respectively). Five replicate groups of fish (26.3 ± 0.1 g) were fed one of the experimental diets. Inclusion of 1.5% FIM in the diet significantly enhanced growth and feed utilization. Significantly higher plasma hemoglobin, hematocrit, total protein levels and lower plasma glucose level were observed in the HB1.5 group. Total immunoglobulin content, lysozyme, nitroblue tetrazolium, myeloperoxidase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase activities and immune-related gene expressions of toll-like receptor and perforin were significantly increased at the highest inclusion level. FIM supplementation significantly increased villus height and goblet cell counts. Anti-inflammatory gene expressions were significantly upregulated at a 1.5% level. Dietary supplementation of 1.5% of FIM could improve growth and feed utilization, immune, hematological and intestinal histomorphological parameters of olive flounder.

“…The lack of exogenous supplementation of vitamin C induces severe immune and physiological disruption, resulting in low growth performance and high infection capability (Shahkar et al, 2015). The addition of vitamin C is tested in most of the farmed fish species, and their species-specific needs were determined (Liu et al, 2022). Vitamin C is recommended at 100 to 1000 mg/kg to enhance finfish species' growth performance and well-being depending on species, fish size, vitamin form, and feed formulation (NRC, 2011).…”

Common carp are proper finfish species for intensification, though their feeds should be reinforced with functional additives to ensure high growth performance and health status. Thus, this study tested the combined effects of butyl hydroxytoluene (BHT) and vitamin C (VC) on the growth performance, blood biomarkers, and antioxidative capacity of common carp. Fish were allotted into four groups and fed on four diets where the control diet was free of VC or/and BHT, while the second and third diets contained dietary VC or BHT at 500 or 150 mg/kg, respectively. The fourth diet was supplemented with both VC (500 mg/kg) and BHT (150 mg/kg) (BHT+VC). After 70 days, feeding VC or/and BHT markedly affected the growth performance of common carp. Carps fed VC, BHT, or BHT+VC had higher (P<0.05) FBW, WG, and SGR than fish fed the control diet, while the FCR was lower (P<0.05) in fish fed both VC and BHT than the control. In addition, feeding BHT or both BHT+VC markedly (P<0.05) reduced the AST, ALT, and urea. The blood protein, albumin, and globulin were higher (P<0.05) in fish-fed VC or/and BHT than in the control. Fish fed dietary VC, or BHT+VC, had lower (P<0.05) total cholesterol (T-CHO) and triglycerides (TG) than those fed on the control or BHT. The SOD, CAT, and GPX were significantly higher (P<0.05) in carp fed on dietary VC or/and BHT than in fish fed on the control diet. Nevertheless, the malondialdehyde level was lower (P<0.05) in carp fed on VC or BHT+VC diets than fish on the control or BHT diets. The lysozyme activity was significantly higher (P<0.05) in carp fed on the BHT+VC diet than in the control or VC. In conclusion, the study suggests that dietary BHT or/and VC can be added to the diets of common carp to enhance the growth performance, feed digestion, blood biomarkers, and antioxidative capacity.
