Immunological Control of Fish Diseases (2010, background): “A few commercial probiotic preparations have also been developed specially for use in aquaculture like MacroGard (β-glucans) and Ergosan (polysaccharide from seaweed; Bagni et al. 2005).”
Effects of two closely related probiotics on respiratory burst activity of Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis, Kaup) phagocytes, and protection against Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida (2009, background): “The high-M alginate is known to be an immunostimulant with potential in marine aquaculture (Skjermo et al., 1995; 2001; Fujiki and Yano, 1997; Peddie et al., 2002; Castro et al., 2004; Skjermo and Bergh, 2004; Bagni et al., 2005; Cheng et al., 2007).”
Application of immunostimulants in aquaculture: current knowledge and future perspectives (2017, background): “Reductions in complement and lysozyme activities were significantly correlated (P < 0.01) with water temperature variation (Bagni et al. 2005; Li, Li & Wang 2010).”
Achieving sustainable aquaculture: Historical and current perspectives and future needs and challenges (2020, background): “In contrast, the lack of increased growth in non-MOS prebiotic studies is partly due to the exclusive focus on immune response and disease resistance, although several studies have found no effect on growth performance (Bagni et al., 2005; Luna-González et al., 2012).”
Dietary sodium alginate administration to enhance the non-specific immune responses, and disease resistance of the juvenile grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus (2008, background): “Dietary administration of sodium alginate extracted from the brown algae, L. digitata and Ascofillum nodosum, for 15 days was reported to increase the alternative complement activity and lysozyme activity (Bagni et al., 2005).”
Beta-Glucans and Mannan Oligosaccharides Enhance Growth and Immunity in Nile Tilapia (2015, methodology): “2003), European Bass (Bagni et al. 2005), Rainbow Trout (Dobsikova et al.”
Microbial ecology of the gastrointestinal tract of fish and the potential application of probiotics and prebiotics in finfish aquaculture (2009, background): “…past decade many studies have demonstrated that not only MOS, but inulin (Cerezuela et al. 2008) and glucans (Cook et al. 2001; Paulsen et al. 2001; Bagni et al. 2005; Mai et al. 2006; Kumari and Sahoo 2006; Misra et al. 2006; Skjermo et al. 2006; Ai et al. 2007; Wang et al. 2007; Djordjevic et…”
