Corrective effect of probiotics on the work of the fish body in industrial aquaculture

Abstract

Abstract. The world community associates the solution of the problem of food security with the development of aquaculture. The search for means of intensifying the production of a complete and easily digestible food protein in aquaculture is an important and urgent problem. Recently, probiotics, which have long been in demand in medicine, have been used in aquaculture to improve health, accelerate growth and improve the quality of fish in aquaculture. However, the correct choice of a probiotic for aquaculture is not an easy task, since in the modern world a wide range of probiotic preparations is produced in various forms, the dosage of which for aquaculture needs has not been developed, as well as the dosage and duration of their use have not been developed. Meanwhile, the use of probiotics in aquaculture can be expected to increase the production of marketable fish of improved quality. Probiotics for aquaculture should be resistant to gastric juice, able to colonize the intestines of fish, interact with the normobiota of the intestine and suppress pathogens. These properties are possessed by the probiotic "Sporotermin". It consists of freeze-dried spores of the bacteria Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis. The content of viable spores in the preparation is not less than 3x10/9 CFU/g. The research results showed that the use of the probiotic "Sportermin" in aquaculture has a healing effect on fish, normalizes the structure of intestinal and liver tissues, affects the leukogram, activates the immune response system, reduces the level of oxidative stress, activating antioxidant defense enzymes and reducing the level of malondialdehyde. The research was carried out on the instructions of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation.
