A total of 4200 shrimps (PL20) were randomly distributed in 12 850 L biofloc (BFT) tanks (350 PL20 in each tank). Shrimps divided into four experimental groups in the biofloc system with salinities of 3 (BFT3), 8 (BFT8), 10 (BFT10), and 12 ppt (BFT12). Salinities were made by adding sea salt to tap water. During the rearing period, for the optimal growth and development of biofloc in the tanks, a carbon source (brown sugar and wheat flour in equal proportions) was calculated and added to the tanks to adjust the ratio of carbon to nitrogen (12:1). From the third to the sixth week of rearing, the water nitrate concentration was significantly higher in BFT12 and BFT10 (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.05).

This comprehensive review explores the integration of NPs across core fields of aquaculture, including nutrition, health management, water treatment, breeding performance, sex manipulation, and waste management. NPs offer innovative solutions for improving fish growth rates, enhancing feed efficiency, and providing targeted drug delivery systems (DDSs) to combat diseases. The antimicrobial properties of NPs effectively target and eliminate bacterial, viral, and fungal infections. NPs play a critical role in improving water quality by removing pollutants and pathogens, promoting a healthier aquaculture environment. They also aid in waste management by breaking down and recycling waste, reducing the ecological footprint of aquaculture. However, concerns about the toxicity of NPs present significant challenges. Future directions point to the importance of thorough risk assessments, the establishment of regulatory guidelines, and the adoption of sustainable approaches to fully leverage the advantages of NPs in aquaculture. Further research is essential to understand the long-term impacts and safety of NPs in aquatic ecosystems.

This study appraises the effects of OTC treatment on the immune response of European sea bass (<i>Dicentrarchus labrax</i>, L. 1758) by assessing immune-related gene expression, serological parameters, hematological parameters, and histological findings.

The objective of this study was to determine the amount of Phe/Tyr in the diet and feeding time necessary to mitigate stress. Seabreams (<i>Sparus aurata</i>) were stocked at 5 kg m<sup>−3</sup> in 500 L tanks. The experimental treatments consisted of different types of feeding: control, Phe-enriched (5%, 7.5%, 10% on dry food), and Tyr-enriched (5%, 7.5%, 10%) food for 2, 4, or 8 days each. At the end of each experimental treatment, fish were sampled for blood, and 10 fish from each treatment were previously subjected to stress by exposure to air (3 min) and sampled 30 min and 2 h later. Plasma glucose, lactate, proteins, cortisol, adrenaline, and noradrenaline concentrations were measured. Dietary Tyr supplements led to high mortalities in long treatments (8 days). The best results for attenuating stress biomarkers were found for the 10% Tyr supplements for 4 days since this treatment kept the maximum number of stress biomarkers with no significant changes. The correlations between biomarker concentrations and amino acid (AA) concentration/supply time were not always significant, though it seems that Tyr supplements present more consistent effects, the increase in Tyr concentration or feeding period being related to decreasing biomarker concentrations.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8104,"journal":{"name":"Aquaculture Research","volume":"2025 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/are/7002255","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143602842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
