Dietary algal zinc nanoparticles improve liver function and immunity in Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus
Green-synthesized zinc nanoparticles (ZnNP) have attracted considerable attention for use as aqua-feed supplements. The effect of ZnNPs on cellular energy, amino acid metabolism, and gene expression of major histocompatibility-II (_MHC-II_) is poorly understood. Our study explored the effect of dietary ZnNPs supplementation on hepatic function and overall health status. Farmed Nile tilapia cultured in a hapa-culturing system were fed ZnNPs ... Read more

Dietary selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) mediate intestinal microbiome and microbiota-derived metabolites regulating the growth and immunity of Nile tilapia
Maintaining a healthy intestine is essential for growth and host defense mechanisms of farmed fish, particularly those densely stocked. In this context, maintaining a healthy intestinal microbiota for proper digestion, absorption, and integrity of the mucosa is of utmost importance. Nano-form (SeNPs)-enriched _Pediastrum boryanum_ (Turpin) exhibits antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antitumor properties. Therefore, SeNPs are valuable nutrition supplements for farmed aquatic ...

Fabrication of algogenic zinc nanoparticles and assessment of their biomimetics attributes and potential antibacterial efficacy against fish pathogens
This study investigates the fabrication of algogenic zinc nanoparticles (ZnNPs), examining their biomimetic properties and potential antibacterial effectiveness against fish pathogens. The rising incidence of antibiotic resistance in aquaculture demands innovative strategies for disease management, highlighting the importance of developing biocompatible and effective antimicrobial agents. In this context, ZnNPs were synthesized using Pediastrum boryanum microalgal extract as the reducing and ... Read more

Ameliorative effects of chitosan and chitosan nanoparticles against  2, 3, 7, 8-tetrachlorodibenzo-P-dioxin-induced hepatotoxicity in  albino rats
B IO-NANOTECHNOLOGY employing natural products is a promising approach for discovering and developing new drugs for treating various diseases. Chitosan (CH) is a natural product produced from crustacean shells. Recently, both CH and Chitosan nanoparticles (CH-NP) have been used in various pharmaceutical and biomedical applications owing to their unique properties. The main aim of this study was to determine the ... Read more

Dietary algal-sourced zinc nanoparticles promote growth performance, intestinal integrity, and immune response of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
Background Trace elements play a crucial role in fish nutrition, with zinc (Zn) being one of the most important ele ments. BIO-sourced zinc nanoparticles were synthesized using the green microalga Pediastrum boryanum (BIO-ZnNPs, 29.35 nm). 30 or 60 mg/ kg dry feed of the BIO-ZnNPs (BIO-ZnNPs30 and BIO-ZnNPs60) were mixed with the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) basal diet and fed ...
