Article Synopsis
- Lactococcosis, a significant bacterial disease affecting aquaculture, poses a threat to the industry's sustainability, with limited effectiveness of medicinal herbs and plants against it.
- In vitro studies show that herbal extracts, particularly those with essential oils containing thymol or carvacrol, are more effective against the disease, but results vary based on bacterial strains and plant chemotypes.
- While essential oils showed strong antibacterial activity in lab tests, their actual effectiveness in live animals was moderate, suggesting they may enhance immune responses but require further investigation for real-world applications.
