“…The impact of turmeric on blood and immunological status of Mugil cephalus 10.3389/fnut.2022.1040259 vaccinated with A. hydrophila bacterium has been assessed (174). The immune response of Japanese flounder and Nile Tilapia fingerlings was enhanced when fed a diet supplemented with curcumin (175,176).…”

The yellow polyphenolic pigment known as curcumin, originating from the rhizome of the turmeric plant Curcuma longa L., has been utilized for ages in ancient medicine, as well as in cooking and food coloring. Recently, the biological activities of turmeric and curcumin have been thoroughly investigated. The studies mainly focused on their antioxidant, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, hepatoprotective, and cardioprotective impacts. This review seeks to provide an in-depth, detailed discussion of curcumin usage within the food processing industries and its effect on health support and disease prevention. Curcumin’s bioavailability, bio-efficacy, and bio-safety characteristics, as well as its side effects and quality standards, are also discussed. Finally, curcumin’s multifaceted uses, food appeal enhancement, agro-industrial techniques counteracting its instability and low bioavailability, nanotechnology and focused drug delivery systems to increase its bioavailability, and prospective clinical use tactics are all discussed.

“…There are three major ways to maximize feed utilization: (1) using feed additives, that is, herbs extracts (El‐Dakar et al, 2008; Hussein et al, 2023), probiotics (M. Abdel‐Aziz et al, 2020; El‐Dakar et al, 2007; Shadrack et al, 2023), exogenous enzymes, and minerals in nanoparticles (Dawood et al, 2019, 2020), (2) establishing feeding strategies (M. F. Abdel‐Aziz et al, 2016; M. Abdel‐Aziz et al, 2020; M. F. Abdel‐Aziz, Abdel‐Tawwab, et al, 2021; El‐Dakar et al, 2021), and (3) providing the optimal environmental conditions for the well‐being of fish to maximize the utilization of each feed molecule added to the water (Abu‐Elala et al, 2023; El Basuini, Teiba, et al, 2022; El Basuini, Zaki, et al, 2022; Teiba et al, 2020).…”

The present work aimed to investigate the impacts of tank color (transparent, light blue, and red), feed pellet types (floating and sinking), and their interaction on the performance and welfare of red hybrid tilapia juveniles with an initial average weight of 19.59 g for a 50 day trial period following a 3 × 2 factorial design. Fish were cultured randomly at a stoking rate of 10 juveniles/100‐L tank. Fish were fed 6 days per week at a rate of 4% biomass twice daily. Three replicates were performed for each measurement. A two‐way analysis of variance showed that using tanks of different colors (transparent, light blue, and red) has no impact on the growth, feed efficacy, survival rate, and blood composition (except for red blood cells, hematocrit, and triglycerides) of tilapia. Also, pellet types (floating and sinking) showed no significant alterations for the above variables except for glucose and hematocrit levels. Interestingly, the interaction between tank color and pellet type exhibited significant impacts on growth parameters, feed utilization, blood variables, and intestinal enzymes of red hybrid tilapia. Moreover, fish reared in transparent or light blue tanks and fed with floating diets performed the best for all evaluated parameters. Additionally, sinking pellets had better effects when combined with red (dark)‐colored tanks.

“…There are lots of studies dealing with curcumin as feed additive in diets of different fish species (Baldissera et al, 2018; El‐Barbary, 2018; Mahmoud et al, 2017). On the other hand, El Basuini et al (2022) reported that incorporating nanocurcumin at a level of ≥100 mg/kg diet (particularly at 150 mg/kg) improved non‐specific immune responses (Lysozyme and bactericidal activities), antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase [SOD], catalase [CAT] and glutathione peroxidase [GPX]), and maintained healthier gastrointestinal microbiota in Nile tilapia under chronic low‐temperature stress.…”

The study aims to investigate the potential effect of nanocurcumin as feed additive in the diet of Oreochromis niloticus to improve its growth performance, health status and resistance against Aspergillus flavus. The control group was fed on a basal diet without nanocurcumin, and four diets T1, T2, T3 and T4 were supplemented with 10, 25, 40 and 55 mg/kg of nanocurcumin, respectively, in triplicate (20 fish/replicate). The duration of the feeding trial was 60 days. The final body weight, weight gain, specific growth rate and survival rate showed significantly (p < 0.05) increased values in the nanocurcumin groups than the control. Fish fed with nanocurcumin supplementation showed improvement in RBCs, haemoglobin, total protein, albumin and globulin while there was a decrease in the liver enzymes (AST and ALT), glucose and alkaline phosphatase. The creatinine was also decreased in fish fed nanocurcumin. The digestive enzymes amylase and lipase increased in the nanocurcumin‐treated groups, and the triglycerides values showed non‐significant increase, whereas the cholesterol values showed non‐significant decrease in T1 and T4. Meanwhile, the cortisol was nearly the same in all groups. At the end of the trial, the fish were challenged with Aspergillus flavus for 15 days. Aspergillus flavus resulted in the mortality of 100% of the control group and the groups with lower doses of nanocurcumin (T1 and T2) within the first week and second week post challenge respectively. In the treatments with high doses (T3 and T4), higher survival rates were recorded in a dose‐dependent manner. The pathogenicity of Aspergillus flavus was confirmed histopathologically. It was concluded that the dietary supplementation of nanocurcumin enhanced the health status of O. niloticus by improving the haemato‐immunological response and body composition parameters of the fish, and protected it from the Aspergillus flavus infection with optimum inclusion levels of 25–40 mg/kg diet.
