“…In addition, the increase in white blood cells shows that probiotic supplement stimulates more innate immunity of Siberian sturgeon other than adaptive immunity. In agreement with our results, some studies have shown that probiotics interact with the immune cells such as monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils and natural killer cells to enhance innate immune responses (Irianto and Austin 2002;Nikoskelainen et al, 2003;Kumar et al, 2008).…”

The current study was carried out to evaluate the effects of probiotic, Lactobacillus plantarum on growth performance and hematological parameters in Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baerii). Fish (14.6±2.3 g) were fed three experimental diets prepared by supplementing a basal diet with L. plantarum at different concentrations (1×10 7 , 1×10 8 and 1×10 9 colony-forming units (cfu) g -1 ) and a control (non-supplemented basal) diet for 8 weeks. At the end of the experiment, 3 fish were sampled randomly from each tank and were anaesthetized. Then, blood samples were introduced to heparinized tubes in order to perform performance and hematological studies. Growth performance indices were increased in fish fed the 1×10 8 cfu g -1 L. plantarum diet compared to the other groups. Furthermore, the fish fed on various levels of L. plantarum significantly showed higher red blood cell, hemoglobin, white blood cell and monocyte compared to those of the control group (P<0.05). Although, the effect of probiotic treatments on other hematological parameters were not significant (P>0.05); but this value was higher in probiotic supplement treatments compared to control group. These results indicated that dietary supplementation of L. plantarum improved growth performance and hematological parameters in Siberian sturgeon.

“…Some probiotics can increase the number of erythrocytes, granulocytes, macrophages and lymphocytes in various fishes (Irianto and Austin, 2002;Irianto and Austin, 2003;Kim et al, 2006;Kumar et al, 2008;Nayak et al, 2007). There is report of increase in different innate immune system upon administration/intake of probiotics i.e.…”

“…The curves displayed that initially after challenge mortality was observed in all groups however thereafter probiotic treated groups showed high survival while number of fishes declined in groups fed on control diets without probiotic supplementation revealing the immunostimulating effects of dietary probiotic supplementation. Earlier studies showed that dietary supplementation of probiotic bacteria significantly increases the disease resistances in Oncorhynchus mykiss (Panigrahi et al, 2005), Catla catla (Bandyopadhyay and Das Mohapatra, 2009), Labeo rohita (Nayak et al, 2007;Kumar et al, 2008), Oreochromis niloticus (Aly et al, 2008). The ability of probiotic bacteria to out-compete other bacteria for nutrients and space as well excluding other bacteria through metabolite production might have resulted in higher survival of fish (Verschuere et al, 2000).…”

Abstract:The present communication deal with the identification of probiotic strain isolated from the intestine of Cirrhinus mrigala (Mrigal) on the basis of phylogenetic analysis and nucleotide homology and was found similar to Bacillus cereus strain SL1. The strain was further investigated for its probiotic abilities; acid and bile tolerance, autoaggregation, coaggregation and hydrophobicity. A dietary experiment of 90 days was carried out to examine its effect on the growth, digestive enzyme activity and survival of C. mrigala. Four isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets were prepared and B. cereus was incorporated in the experimental diets; T1, T2 and T3 at three different levels in the proportion of 2 × 10 4 , 2 × 10 5 and 2 × 10 6 cells 100 g -1 of feed respectively, along with a control diet TC without probiotic. After 90 days, the group of mrigal fed on probiotic supplemented diets showed significantly (P<0.05) better growth, specific growth rate (SGR), feed conversion ratio (FCR) than those fed with basal diet (control) with best result for diet T2 (P<0.05). Values of digestive enzyme activities (protease, amylase and cellulose) and carcass protein were also significantly (P<0.05) higher and excretion of metabolites (ammonia and phosphate) were lower in groups fed with diet T2. When probiotic supplemented diet fed fish were challenged with pathogenic Aeromonas hydrophila by immersion for 10 days, all probiotic fed groups showed high survival in comparison to group fed on control diet without probiotic supplementation indicating immunostimulating effect of probiotic in diets of C. mrigala.
