Article Synopsis
  • The study assessed how S. officinalis (sage) essential oil affects the growth, health, and antioxidant activity in common carp (C. carpio) over a 60-day period.
  • Fish fed with 1 ml/kg of sage oil showed an increase in superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, but overall growth performance and other health markers remained unchanged.
  • Importantly, carp experienced no mortality when exposed to a bacteria challenge after being fed with the sage oil, suggesting it improves gut health, disease resistance, and fertility in the fish.

Article Synopsis
  • Probiotic yeasts have become popular in aquaculture due to their health benefits for farmed fish, with a focus on autochthonous yeasts identified from goldfish.
  • Four specific yeast strains were characterized from the intestinal tracts of healthy goldfish, and their probiotic properties were tested for things like cell surface hydrophobicity and ability to tolerate pH and bile salts.
  • Results showed that these strains can co-aggregate with harmful bacteria and tolerate low pH, highlighting their potential as probiotic candidates, but further testing in real-life aquaculture settings is needed.

A 12-week feeding trial was conducted with 87 g rainbow trout to evaluate the effects on growth performances, feed efficiency and nutrient digestibility of adding β-mannanase and α-galactosidase enzymes, solely or in combination. Seven diets were prepared by adding β-mannanase, α-galactosidase and mixed enzyme at two different levels (1 g/kg and 2 g/kg) to control diet (without enzyme) including soybean meal. Mixed enzymes (1 g/kg, 2 g/kg) were prepared by adding β-mannanase and α-galactosidase at the same doses (0.
