This study was conducted to evaluate the purification of antioxidant peptides from the rainbow trout viscera using by enzymatic hydrolysis and to measure the amino acid profile of the peptide part with more antioxidant properties. Two concentrations of alcalase were used to hydrolyse fish viscera (1 % and 2 %). The hydrolyzate was fractionated and purified with ultra-filtration membranes (<30, <10, and < 3 kDa) and RP-HPLC (Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography) and evaluation for antioxidant properties by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging assays. The degree of hydrolysis was measured in hydrolyzed fish viscera. Sections of F10, F11 and F12 in the chromatogram exhibited the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity with 80.41 ± 0.21 %, 79.71 ± 0.65 % and 78.83 ± 0.81 %, respectively. The amino acid profiles of sections F11, F12, and F10 confirmed that these sections contained adequate amounts of hydrophobic amino acids, increasing their antioxidant activity. The ratio of essential amino acids to total amino acids in selected samples was 37.51 % and also essential amino acids to non-essential amino acid ratio was 0.56. According to the results, the viscera of rainbow trout is a rich source of antioxidant peptides to replace with synthetic antioxidants.

Exogenous enzymes are used to enhance ingredient digestibility, overall fish growth, and feed utilization; however, different administration methods have not been extensively studied. In this study, a mixture of carbohydrases (α-amylase, cellulase, xylanase, and β-glucanase) was applied before (at B3, B6, B12, and B24 hours), during (D), or after (A) the production of high-carbohydrate diets (33% carbohydrates) to assess their effects on the growth and feed utilization of rainbow trout. The enzymes were added to the diets at the minimum required levels, determined by a reducing sugar test with dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) based on the available wheat flour and soybean meal in the diet.

mRNA vaccines are poised to revolutionize disease prevention, following the approval of their administration to humans against SARS-CoV-2. Although they have been extensively studied for human applications, their potential in the veterinary field has not been explored yet. No mRNA vaccines have yet been reported for fish, despite the urgent need for new vaccines against emerging pathogens in aquaculture.

B cells exclusively expressing IgD on the cell surface (IgDIgM B cells) have been identified in mammals, where they seem to play a still not well-defined role in peripheral tolerance. These cells have also been reported in catfish () peripheral blood and in several mucosal tissues of rainbow trout (), including gut, gills and skin. As in mammals, the precise function of these cells remains obscure, yet, in rainbow trout mucosal surfaces, these cells have been shown to be differentiated to plasma-like cells.
