“…Also, chitinase and/or chitinolytic bacteria could be added to dietary insects to improve the digestibility of the chitin-protein complexes (Kroeckel et al, 2012), as shown for tilapia fed diets containing crustacean shell (Zhang et al, 2014). Alternatively, chitin could be degraded by chemical or enzymatic methods before being added to fish diets as chito-oligosaccharides (COS), acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) or chitosan (Shiau and Yu, 1999;Se-Kwon and Niranjan, 2005;Lin et al, 2012aLin et al, , 2012b. Like chitin, low levels of these metabolites have been shown to immunostimulate fish (Hoffman et al, 1997;Lin et al, 2012a).…”

“…The uses of probiotics in human and animal nutrition are well documented and recently have been applied to aquaculture. Subsequently, evidence of the beneficial effects of probiotics resulted in the general principle of prebiotics (Lin et al, 2012). Prebiotics have been defined as "Non-digestible food ingredients that beneficially affect the host by selectively stimulating the growth and/or the activity of health-promoting bacteria in the intestinal tract" (Hoseinifar et al, 2010).…”

The present study investigated the effects of prebiotic mannan oligosaccharide (MOS; activeMOS ® ) on the growth performance, intestinal microflora, body composition, haematological and serum biochemical parameters in rainbow trout juvenile (Oncorhynchus mykiss). After acclimation, fish (1.67±0.006 g) were allocated into 12 tanks (25 fish per tank) and triplicate groups were fed a control diet or diets containing 1, 2.5 and 4.0 g MOS kgG 1 . At the end of trial (60 days), blood samples were collected from caudal vein of 48 apparently healthy fish. Result showed that in level of 1 g MOS kgG 1 acquired final weight, Body Weight Increase (BWI), Specific Growth Rate (SGR) and Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) were significantly higher than the other experimental groups (p<0.05). The highest and the lowest growth performances were observed in 1 g MOS kgG 1 and control, respectively. The fish fed with 1 g MOS kgG 1 had highest but not significant (p>0.05) intestinal lactic acid bacterial count. By increasing the supplementation level of MOS, the content of crude protein increased (p<0.05). The result showed no significant differences in serum enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP) activity, glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride and total protein among treatments (p>0.05) but levels of lymphocyte in the group fed 1 g MOS kgG 1 was significantly higher than other groups (p<0.05). Also, a non significant elevation of White Blood Cell (WBC), haematocrit, hemoglobin and eosinophil levels was found in the fish fed diet 1.0 g MOS kgG 1 (p>0.05). The results indicated that dietary administration of mannan oligosaccharide at the level of 1 g kgG 1 can positively influence the growth performance, intestinal microflora, body composition and some blood parameters of juvenile rainbow trout.
