Description
Leyao Qian and colleagues describe laboratory and feeding trials, published in 2026, of a blended plant extract tested in the fish Acrossocheilus fasciatus. The mixture combined four plant sources and was first checked for its ability to stop Streptococcus agalactiae, a bacterium that harms farmed fish.
A dose mixed into feed at a low rate gave the best survival after bacterial challenge and caused no harm to growth. Treated fish showed healthier liver and gut tissue and a gut microbe mix with more helpful bacteria and fewer harmful types. Fish farmers and researchers get a candidate alternative to antibiotics, with dose and safety details spelled out.
