Nematodes Can Substitute in a Co-Feeding Regime for Pacific White Shrimp Post-Larvae Reared in a Biofloc Nursery System.

This study evaluated nematodes as an alternative to live when provided in a co-feeding regime to Pacific white shrimp () post-larvae (PL) reared in a biofloc nursery system. A 20-day experiment employing PL was performed for an evaluation of four dietary groups: control [C] (fed exclusively with a dry commercial feed); artificial [AA] (dry feed composed of extracted and processed cysts and dry commercial feed); live and dry commercial feed [LA]; and nematodes and dry commercial feed [N] ( sp. dry nematodes).

Effects of a multi-strain Bacillus probiotic on the intestinal microbiome, haemato-immunology, and growth performance of Nile tilapia.

The study evaluated dietary supplementation with a feed additive composed of multi-strain Bacillus for Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. In vitro and in vivo assays employing culture-based microbiological methods and metagenomics were performed. Additionally, the study assessed the haemato-immunology, intestinal microbiome, and growth performance of the animals.

Effects of Microalgae Addition and Fish Feed Supplementation in the Integrated Rearing of Pacific White Shrimp and Nile Tilapia Using Biofloc Technology.

This study aims to evaluate a Pacific white shrimp and Nile tilapia integrated system using biofloc technology with or without the addition of the microalgae Scenedesmus obliquus and with or without fish feed supplementation in a two-factor 62-day experiment. The shrimp (2.16 ± 0.

Intensification of Penaeid Shrimp Culture: An Applied Review of Advances in Production Systems, Nutrition and Breeding.

Intensification of the shrimp sector, also referred to as vertical expansion, has been predominately driven by consecutive incidences of global disease outbreaks, which have caused enormous economic loss for the main producer countries. A growing segment of the shrimp farming industry has opted to use production systems with higher density, biosecurity, and operating control to mitigate the risks posed by disease. However, successful super-intensive shrimp production is reliant on an advanced understanding of many important biological and economic parameters in the farming system, coupled with effective monitoring, to maintain optimal production.

A multidimensional and multi-period analysis of safety on roads.

This paper proposes a multidimensional and multi-period analysis of safety on roads. It aggregates different road safety performance indicators observed over different periods for which multicriteria and multi-period approaches are used. The criticality of a road depends on the interaction of various factors, such as human factors, causes of accidents and their severity levels, and the characteristics/states of the roads.
