The present trial was conducted to evaluate the supplementation effects of Macleaya cordata extract (MCE) on growth performance, serum biochemical parameters, and intestinal health of the juvenile American eel (Anguilla rostrata). The 480 juvenile Am...
This study was performed to explore the influences of dietary peanut skin proanthocyanidins (PSPcs) on the antioxidant capability and intestinal health of juvenile American eels (Anguilla rostrata). The American eels (10.50 ± 0.03 g) were rand...
Vibrio harveyi (Vh) and Vibrio vulnificus (Vv) are major bacterial pathogens affecting farmed eels, but their comparative virulence mechanisms remain poorly characterized. This study combined histopathology and transcriptomic profiling to investigate...
This study was conducted to evaluate the oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC) in alleviating the detrimental effects of intestinal health caused by dietary histamine in juvenile American eels (Anguilla rostrata). A total of 480 fish with a similar body...
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of replacing fish meal (FM) with methanotroph (Methylococcus capsulatus, Bath) bacteria protein (MBP) in the diets of the juvenile American eel (Anguilla rostrata). Trial fish were randomly divided int...
With a reduced supply and increased price of white fish meal (WFM), the exploration of a practical strategy to replace WFM is urgent for sustainable eel culture. A 70-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of replacing WFM with low-q...
The European eel (Anguilla anguilla (L.)) is a unique catadromous euryhaline fish and the only anguillid eel species classified as ‘critically endangered’. The Baltic Lakeland area contains naturally recruited and introduced eels. Th...
Adult American eels (Anguilla rostrata) are vulnerable to hydropower turbine mortality during outmigration from growth habitat in inland waters to the ocean where they spawn. Imaging sonar is a reliable and proven technology for monitoring of fish pa...
Anguillid herpesvirus 1 (AngHV-1) is a pathogen that causes hemorrhagic disease in various farmed and wild freshwater eel species, resulting in significant economic losses. Although AngHV-1 has been detected in the American eel (Anguilla rostrata), i...
As growth-promoting feed additives, compound acidifiers (CAs) have been widely reported in many farmed fish species, whereas there is little information on the application of CAs in the eel diet. The present trial was conducted to evaluate the supple...
As a functional feed additive, grape seed proanthocyanidin extract has received a lot of attention due to its biological activity in the health of aquatic animals, but its high cost limits the application of this feed additive in the diet of many fis...
The enzymatic hydrolysis of soybeans could enhance their application as an ingredient and alternative to fishmeal in aquafeeds. Here, a 10-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the impacts of different dietary inclusion levels of enzymatically...
Background: Aeromonas hydrophila is a common bacterial pathogen that causes hemorrhagic septicaemia in several farmed aquaculture species. Phage therapy is considered a promising and feasible alternative to antibiotic treatment. Methods: In this...
Histamine is a significant risk factor in brown fishmeal and negatively affects histamine-sensitive fish species. The present study aimed to explore the potential protective effects of dietary sanguinarine supplementation against the adverse impacts...
Micro-minerals are essential for fish, but traditional inorganic micro-minerals (IMM) have low bioavailability. This study evaluated coated inorganic micro-minerals (CIMM) in juvenile American eels under commercial recirculating aquaculture system (R...
The Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica), European eel (Anguilla anguilla), and American eel (Anguilla rostrata) are migratory, catadromous, temperate zone fish sharing several common life cycle features. The population genetics of panmixia in these eel...
The aim of this study is to investigate how external nutrient supply affects the allocation of reproductive energy during artificial ripening of American eels (Anguilla rostrata), as well as the physiological regulatory mechanisms involved in their b...
