Revolutionizing Veterinary Medicine: The Role of Nanoparticles in Advancing Animal Health, Nutrition and Disease Management

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Nanoparticles are transforming animal care by enhancing nutrition, drug delivery and disease prevention. This study highlights their role in improving nutrient absorption in livestock, facilitating targeted drug delivery and boosting vaccine efficacy. Additionally, nanoparticles effectively reduce harmful mycotoxins in animal feeds, promoting overall ...

Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) Cage Aquaculture in Africa: Potential Threats to Congeneric Fish Species and Advances to Detect Escapes

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Cage fish farming, a recent development in aquaculture, has enhanced fisheries production due to its higher stocking densities than traditional pond and open‐water systems. Although it can enhance production, the system can pose biodiversity threats when there is an unintentional or intentional release of stocked fish into the wild.

Fermented bile improved growth performance and intestine health by altering metabolic profiles and intestinal microbes in Chinese perch, Siniperca chuatsi

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract A type of fermented bile acid (BA) named 170HDa was produced using a biological method, and its impacts on growth performance, metabolism, and intestinal microbes in Chinese perch (Siniperca chuatsi) were investigated. Seven experimental diets were established, including treatment groups supplemented with 0.02%–0.06% 170HDa (GN1‐GN5), a ...

Parasites of the invasive tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus: evidence for co-introduction

Aquatic Invasions, 2019
Reduced parasite species diversity and infection intensity on invasive populations can facilitate establishment and spread of invasive species. We investigated the parasite diversity of invasive populations of tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus from ...

Diversity and Distribution of Amphibians and Freshwater Fishes on Australian Islands

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Freshwater ecosystems cover less than 3% of the Earth's surface, yet support nearly 10% of all known animal species, majorly represented by freshwater fishes and amphibians, both of which are highly threatened groups. Geographically isolated freshwater species, such as those inhabiting islands, are at high risk. Australia, with nearly 9300

Utilization of an insect-based diet by a herbivorous fish (Oreochromis mossambicus) and an opportunistic predator (Clarias gariepinus)

Scientific African
An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of Alates termite (Macrotermes falciger) based diet in a herbivorous (Oreochromis mossambicus) and an opportunistic predator (Clarias gariepinus). Five diets were formulated to replace fishmeal

Immuno‐Haematological and Growth Responses of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) Exposed to Agricultural Effluents During Dry Season in Benin's Cotton Basin

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Pesticide residues pose a significant risk to aquatic ecosystems, fauna and human health. Yet, the physiological impact on aquatic organisms, especially fish exposed to pesticide residues in the dry season, remains unexplored, and even data on chronic exposure to pesticide residue mixtures under natural environmental conditions remains scarce.
