Summary
7.2/10A study evaluated how two plant-derived compounds—osthole and tetramethylpyrazine—improve growth, immune function, and antioxidant defense in Pacific white shrimp, offering a natural alternative to antibiotics in aquaculture.
Key Findings
Osthole and tetramethylpyrazine compound enhanced growth performance metrics in shrimp
Dietary supplementation improved antioxidant capability and immune response
Plant-derived bioactive compounds show promise as antibiotic alternatives in aquaculture
Original Abstract
Dietary plant-derived bioactive compounds for enhancing physiological health are becoming a prevalent strategy for antibiotic alternatives. Our study revealed the effects and underlying mechanism of Osthole (OST) and OST-Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) compound in
