Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) address pollution, disease, and sustainability in commercial fish farming, but marine RAS are limited by biofilter maturation and nitrification. This study investigated the effects of air nanobubbles on water quality, fish growth, and bacterial communities in marine RAS stocked with juvenile Malabar red snapper, barramundi and saline-tolerant hybrid tilapia. Flow cytometry was evaluated as a rapid management tool for non-culturable microbes, finding viable bacterial counts 30–100 times higher than conventional total plate counts. There were no significant differences in fish growth, survival, or Feed Conversion Ratio between groups, likely due to low stocking densities (<20 kg/m3) and high water exchange rates (>100%/hour), indicating low system stress. Air nanobubbles did not significantly increase dissolved oxygen levels. While bacterial abundance in water was consistently higher in nanobubble-treated RAS (RAS-N), tank walls showed less biofilm. RAS-N also exhibited a higher abundance of nitrifying bacteria like Nitrospira and Marinobacter, leading to improved nitrogenous waste breakdown and lower nitrite levels. Future research should investigate nanobubbles’ benefits at higher stocking densities and longer durations to fully assess their impact on intensive aquaculture. Full article

This study offers a comprehensive morpho-histological analysis of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of the Malabar red snapper. A comparison of its GIT morphology with that of the Asian seabass reveals similarities and differences between the two species. Additionally, the moisture content, crude protein, and ash in the fillets of Malabar red snapper and Asian seabass were slightly different, with Malabar red snapper exhibiting higher levels of essential fatty acids. Furthermore, higher levels of the polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)/saturated fatty acid (SFA) ratio and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)/eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) ratio, and a lower omega-6/omega-3 ratio, were observed in Malabar red snapper compared to Asian seabass. The Malabar red snapper’s esophagus featured protective mechanisms such as simple columnar epithelial cells, mucous-secreting glands, and goblet cells that were predominantly stained for acid and neutral mucosubstances. Furthermore, its stomach, with mucus cells that were weakly stained for acid mucosubstances, exhibited distinct regions with varying glandular densities, with the pyloric region featuring few glands. The pyloric caeca of the fish were composed of five finger-like structures and few goblet cells. Several goblet cells gradually increased from the anterior to the posterior region of the intestine. These findings provide useful insights for the aquaculture sector, focusing on Malabar red snapper. Full article

Electrochemical biosensors are widely recognized in biosensing devices due to the fact that gives a direct, reliable, and reproducible measurement within a short period. During bio-interaction process and the generation of electrons, it produces electrochemical signals which can be measured using an electrochemical detector. A formaldehyde biosensor was successfully developed by depositing an ionic liquid (IL) (e.g., 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([EMIM][Otf])), gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and chitosan (CHIT), onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The developed formaldehyde biosensor was analyzed for sensitivity, reproducibility, storage stability, and detection limits. Methylene blue was used as a redox indicator for increasing the electron transfer in the electrochemical cell. The developed biosensor measured the NADH electron from the NAD+ reduction at a potential of 0.4 V. Under optimal conditions, the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) method detected a wider linear range of formaldehyde concentrations from 0.01 to 10 ppm within 5 s, with a detection limit of 0.1 ppm. The proposed method was successfully detected with the presence of formalin in fish samples, Lutjanus malabaricus and Thunnus Tonggol. The proposed method is a simple, rapid, and highly accurate, compared to the existing technique. Full article
