“…The majority of these studies have focussed on potential benefits for haemato-biochemical parameters and immune response following a bacterial challenge. Overall, supplementing diets with A. vera results in improved haemato-biochemical parameters, such as an increase in serum lysozyme activity, red blood cells, hematocrit, haemoglobin, white blood cells, lower basal plasma cortisol rate, serum triacylglycerol and enhanced antioxidant enzymes activities (Alishahi et al, 2010;Gabriel et al, 2015aGabriel et al, , 2015bZanuzzo et al, 2015a).…”

Despite their importance to global economies, the aquaculture and seafood sectors are major contributors to waste, which is a problem for the environment. Because of its biocompatibility and recyclability, fish waste, which is rich in chitin and chitosan—holds potential in several fields. The shells of crustaceans are the source of chitin and chitosan, two substances with versatile and useful qualities. Although it is not very soluble, chitin is very biocompatible and biodegradable, much like cellulose. The more versatile and solubilized chitosan is made when chitin is deacetylated. About half of seafood waste is made up of cephalothoraxes and shrimp exoskeletons, and chitin is the second most common polysaccharide in the world. An eco‐friendly strategy for managing seafood waste and creating value may be found in investigating these compounds originating from the ocean. The byproduct of fish scales, chitosan, has many uses in the cosmetics, pharmaceutical, culinary, and aquaculture industries. Greener ways of chitin extraction include enzymatic deproteinization and microbial fermentations, as well as biological approaches like demineralization and deproteinization. Chitosan has several potential uses in biomedicine, food technology, and tissue engineering because of its acid solubility and precipitation at pH values greater than 6.0. It may be used in wound healing, water treatment, and agriculture due to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and antibacterial qualities. Research on chitosan supplementation in several fish species suggests that it may improve immune responses. However, further research is needed to properly comprehend this. Oral chitosan use has the potential to lead to a more efficient and environmentally friendly aquaculture industry.

This research aimed to investigate the effect of turmeric powder (Curcuma langa) and black pepper (Piper nigrum) on growth parameters, blood, immunity, and the relative expression of immune-related genes in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Rainbow trout (n = 450, average weight 24.95 ± 0.70 g) were fed with four levels (0, 0.25, 0.5, and 1% of diet) of three combined levels of turmeric (C) and black pepper (P) plants (30% C + 70% P, 50% P + 50% C, 70% C + 30% P) in 10 experimental treatments each with three repetitions for 60 days. Growth, hematological and serum biochemical parameters, liver enzymes, serum immune parameters and the expression of TNF-α and IL-8 genes were evaluated at the end of the period. Based on the results, the highest values of nal weight, average daily growth, speci c growth rate, and the lowest food conversion coe cient were reported at the 1% level with the 70% C + 30% P combination. Signi cant changes were also observed in red and white blood cell counts, hemoglobin, hematocrit, total protein, globulin, lysozyme activity, total immunoglobulin, and complement activity at the 1% level with 70% C + 30% P combination. The TNFα gene relative expression decreased signi cantly in all nutritional treatments with the two combined plants compared to the control. The IL8 gene expression increased signi cantly in sh fed with the 1% combination of the two plants (70% P + 30% C) compared to the other treatments. Based on the ndings, the optimal values of the growth, blood, and immunity parameters mainly at the 1% diet level in the treatments fed with the C and P combination can result from the positive effect of these compounds on the growth performance and immunogenesis in rainbow trout ngerling.
