In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we talk about how probiotics, prebiotics, and symbiotics are being used to manage disease in shrimp farming. Backed by recent research, we look at how these tools support gut health, boost the immune system, and improve survival rates when pathogens strike. These strategies offer effective alternatives to antibiotics in intensive systems. Tune in now on all major platforms to stay ahead in shrimp health management!
Inspired by the 2024 article titled "Probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics in shrimp aquaculture: Their effects on growth performance, immune responses, and gut microbiome" by Khanjani, Mohammad Hossein, et al.
