Description
Enas Farag and colleagues feed vitamin E nanoparticles to Nile tilapia and watch growth and immunity. Their feeding trial from twenty twenty-four protects the vitamin with chitosan shells. Vitamin E is lost in feed processing and digestion. Nano-packaging may deliver it intact to the fish.
Groups got plain vitamin or nanoparticle doses from quarter to full strength. Feeding ran up to eight weeks with staged checks. Growth and feed efficiency improved with the nanoparticles. Immune markers in blood rose above plain-vitamin levels. A bacterial challenge killed far fewer protected fish. Seventy percent of unprotected fish died in that challenge. Aquaculture gains a practical feed additive strategy.
