Study provides insights into the adaptation of Pacific white shrimp to ammonia stress by enhancing immune function through tannins in feeds.
Health & Welfare
Higher holding densities and asphyxiation increase stress, damaging flesh, while lower densities reduce stress and improve fillet quality.

An estimation model identifies genetic variances across mating combinations for stress resistance traits and families with heightened stress tolerance.
Innovation & Investment
East Coast Innovation's Voluntary Swim-In fish transportation technology minimizes fish stress and enhances survival rates for aquaculture.
Health & Welfare
With research showing that stress can damage meat quality, fish and shrimp farmers are weighing the latest animal welfare solutions.

El uso preventivo de sal común (cloruro de sodio) por los productores comerciales de peces de agua dulce tiene muchos beneficios, incluyendo ayudar a la prevención de rutina de pérdidas debidas a las enfermedades, el estrés y el mal manejo durante el transporte, recolección, clasificación, conteo, pesaje y desove inducido.
Health & Welfare
Vibrio infections are an increasingly common problem in intensive shrimp culture. As evidenced by study results, weekly Vibrio monitoring can be a useful tool for predicting bacterial disease outbreaks.

A study was performed to determine the effects of puerarin, a biologically active ingredient in the roots of kudzu, on stress modulation in farmed salmon.
Health & Welfare
Although selection in fish is progressing rapidly, slower adaption to captivity over several generations can limit animal welfare problems.
Health & Welfare
Authors tested a commercial probiotic designed to lower stress prior to and during fish transport. Treatment at 10 ppm produced highest survival and growth.
