“…Additionally, the seeds of Moringa oleifera are a source of protein, iron, calcium, ascorbic acid vitamin A, and antioxidant compounds, such as carotenoids, flavonoids, vitamin E, and phenolics [46]. The presence of vitamins and minerals benefit the immune system and cure a myriad of diseases [19,43,44,47,48].…”

“…Several studies have examined technical options such as nutritional manipulation and feed additives to alleviate the harmful effect of heat stress on laying birds [7,[15][16][17]. Natural herbal plants, such as black seed, coriander seeds, and Moringa oleifera exhibit effective roles in overcoming the effect of heat stress through flavonoids and other phenolic compounds [18,19]. M. oleifera has a high nutritional value as it comprises significant concentrations of vitamins A, B, and C, proteins, phosphorus, and calcium [20,21].…”

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of three concentrations of the Moringa oleifera seed powder as a feed supplement on the productive performance and egg quality traits of laying Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) exposed to heat stress. The expression patterns of the genes estrogen receptors (ESR2), follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR), prolactin receptor (PRLR), and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (STAR) were estimated in ovaries, using a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. A total of 200 laying quail aged seven weeks were randomly allocated to the following four experimental groups—the control (CNT), T1, T2, and T3 groups; each group comprised 50 quail females with 5 replicates (10 per group). The CNT group was fed a basal diet, whereas the T1, T2, and T3 groups were fed the basal diet supplemented with 0.1%, 0.2%, and 0.3% M. oleifera seed powder, respectively. The results revealed that the T3 group showed the highest hen-day egg production (%) as well as the highest egg yolk index. Feed intake and feed conversion ratio improved significantly (p < 0.05) with increased concentrations of the M. oleifera seed powder supplementation. Furthermore, the mRNA expressions of ESR2, FSHR, and STAR increased significantly in the T3 group, compared to those in the CNT group. Alterations in ovarian gene expressions corresponded to the reproductive patterns of the treated Japanese quail. Thus, it was concluded that the supplementation of the Japanese quail feed with 0.3% M. oleifera seed powder during the laying period might enhance resistance to heat stress and consequently improve egg productivity.

“…The expression of immune‐related genes is very sensitive to imidacloprid, while the mRNA expression levels of inflammatory cytokines IL‐6, INF‐ α, TNF‐ α and IL‐1 β and chemokines IL‐8 were significantly downregulated due to imidacloprid (Hong et al, 2018). Furthermore, the alteration in values of both erythrocyte and leukocyte profile due to the exposure to imidacloprid refers to disorders of haematopoiesis and the non‐specific immunity of the fish (Naiel et al, 2020). Also, the balance between oxidant and antioxidant is fundamental for immune cell function as it preserves cell membrane integrity and functionality, cellular proteins and nucleic acids.…”

Intensive fish culturing systems depend on provides optimal water quality conditions. Hence, the most important aquaculture practices are the removal of contamination elements related not only to the water quality parameters unacceptable for aquatic species but also to the undesirable effect on the health of fish and consumers. During the last three decades, common applications and production of pesticides have amplified progressively. Due to the excessive use of imidacloprid as a highly effective insecticide, elevated accumulation is expected in an aquatic environment. A large part of applied pesticides emitted into the environment and only a small portion of them reach the final biological target, where it caused several hazards, such as accumulation and toxicity to non‐target creatures. Plant‐derived secondary metabolites are getting great attention due to their safety and therapeutic functions. Also, several feed additives in animal diets can act as chemopreventive agents, which have the potential to decrease the toxicity risk of many pollutants and detoxification of activated metabolites. Understanding the internal action mechanisms of various safe feed additives could lead to the novel therapeutic approaches for acute and chronic pesticide toxicity. This review intends to summarize how safe feed additives alter or mitigate the toxic effects of imidacloprid in farmed fish.

“…The properties of chitosan depend on its molecular weight, degree of polymerization, degree of deacetylation, and particle size [3,10]. In regards to particle size, nanoscale chitosan particles exhibit remarkable properties in its application such as high adsorption capacity [6], increase cellular uptake and drug release [11] and alleviate toxicological effect [12]. Previously, chitosan nanoparticles were synthesized using various methods, namely selfassembly [11,13], microemulsion [14], ultrafine milling [12] and ionotropic gelation [2,15,16].…”

Previously, chitosan nanoparticles were synthesized using various methods, namely selfassembly [11,13], microemulsion [14], ultrafine milling [12] and ionotropic gelation [2,15,16]. The latter has been known as a simpler technique used for natural polymer nanoparticles preparation compared to others that require multi-experimental steps and use many harmful chemicals to assist preparation processes [11,17], or are hard to control the chitosan particle size [18][19][20].…”

This work aimed at controlling the size of chitosan nanoparticles that were prepared by the ionotropic gelation method. Quantities of chitosan and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) were optimized to obtain a fine size and narrow size distribution of the nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction and selected area electron diffraction patterns indicated the existence of both crystalline and amorphous phases of chitosan. Particle size and size distribution were determined using transmission electron microscopy and dynamic laser scattering techniques. The size of the chitosan particles decreased with a reduction in STPP content due to a decrease in cross-link bonding and the formation of aggregate particles. Using this facile approach, the finest particles of chitosan were obtained in a range of 3-6 nm.
