“…These results may be due to the phenolic compounds present in PPP, namely gallic and ferulic acids (Dhaoudia et al 2013 ; Benayad et al 2014 ), which are renowned as growth promoters (Cai et al 2020 ; Dawood et al 2020 ; Van Doan et al 2021c ; Xu et al 2021 ). The improvement of the feed utilization efficiency and body protein content in the present study may be attributed to the ability of dietary PPP to stimulate the digestive enzymes secretion and promote the intestinal microbiota function to digest the nutrients and improve their absorption (Salem et al 2019 ; Van Doan et al ( 2021b ). The increase in digestive enzyme activity in fish fed PPP-supplemented diets in the current study may support this assumption.…”

“…Therefore, the search for natural alternatives has become necessary. In this regard, fruit and vegetable wastes and by-products have attracted the attention as cheap potential health stimulants, due to the natural biomolecules they contain (Acar et al 2015 ; Baba et al 2016 ; Acar et al 2018 ; Kesbiç and Yigit 2019 ; Van Doan et al 2021a , b , c ).…”

This study evaluated the effects of prickly pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) peel (PPP) on salinity tolerance, growth, feed utilization, digestive enzymes, antioxidant capacity, and immunity of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). PPP was incorporated into four iso-nitrogenous (280 g kg−1 protein) and iso-energetic (18.62 MJ kg−1) diets at 0 (PPP0), 1 (PPP1), 2 (PPP2), and 4 (PPP4) g kg−1. Fish (9.69 ± 0.2 g) (mean ± SD) were fed the diets for 75 days. Following the feeding experiment, fish were exposed to a salinity challenge (25‰) for 24 h. Fish survival was not affected by the dietary PPP inclusion either before or after the salinity challenge. Fish fed the PPP-supplemented diets showed lower aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, cortisol, and glucose levels compared to PPP0, with the lowest values being observed in PPP1. Fish fed dietary PPP had higher growth rates and feed utilization than PPP0. Quadratic regression analysis revealed that the best weight gain was obtained at 2.13 g PPP kg−1 diet. The highest activities of protease and lipase enzymes were recorded in PPP1, while the best value of amylase was recorded in PPP2, and all PPP values were higher than PPP0. Similarly, PPP1 showed higher activities of lysozyme, alternative complement, phagocytic cells, respiratory burst, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase, and lower activity of malondialdehyde than in PPP0. Further increases in PPP levels above 2 g kg−1 diet led to significant retardation in the immune and antioxidant parameters. Thus, the inclusion of PPP at about 1 to or 2 g kg−1 diet can improve stress tolerance, immunity, and antioxidant capacity in Nile tilapia.

“…In this study, we report the evidence of prebiotic attributes of OLE rich in polyphenols to develop, in combination with probiotic microorganisms, synbiotics to be used in crayfish nutrition. Synbiotics, the combination of prebiotic and probiotic, currently represent one of the emerging food strategies for the improvement of the growth performances, health status, and well-being of shellfish [63][64][65][66][67] and finfish species [68][69][70][71][72]. Currently, much attention is paid to synbiotics containing polyphenols in place of the traditional carbohydrates as prebiotics agents [10].…”

Here, the olive leaf extract (OLE) rich in polyphenols was employed as a prebiotic agent, together with Lactobacillus reuteri and Bacillus clausii, to develop synbiotics. The prebiotic effect of olive leaf extract on the probiotic strains was tested at concentrations of 0, 50, 100, 400, and 1000 μg mL−1, and also 20 and 40 mg mL−1. Olive leaf extract at 40 mg mL−1 showed the best prebiotic activity on L. reuteri and B. clausii. A basal diet and two experimental synbiotic-containing diets were prepared. The synbiotic diets were manufactured by adding to the basal diet 5 × 106 CFU g−1 L. reuteri + 5 × 106 CFU g−1 B. clausii + 0.25 mg g−1 OLE and 1 × 107 CFU g−1 L. reuteri + 1 × 107 CFU g−1 B. clausii + 0.25 mg g−1 OLE. The diets were administered to the freshwater crayfish Astacus astacus (1.35 ± 0.04 g) in an 84-day feeding trial. The diet containing 5 × 106 CFU g−1 L. reuteri + 5 × 106 CFU g−1 B. clausii + 0.25 mg g−1 OLE significantly improved (p < 0.05) final weight, specific growth rate, body condition, and survival rate. A significant growth of Enterobacteriaceae, which include strains with proven beneficial activities for intestinal health and general animal welfare, significantly increased in crayfish fed with synbiotics. The obtained results could be suitable for functional feed development in crayfish farming.

“…It has been reported that some species of the Lactobacillus in aquaculture organisms can improve morphology of digestive tract [67] , which also plays an important role in immune enhancement [68] . Varies studies have observed that dietary Lactobacillus could increase growth performance and enhance immune function of L. vannamei [69] , Red sea bream Pagrus major [70] and Nile tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus [71] . In the present study, compared with the control, dietary YC significantly increased relative abundance of Bacteroides and Lactobacillus .…”
