Abstract

Growing concern for the high consumption of antibiotics in aquaculture has initiated a search for alternative methods of disease control by improving resistance against infectious disease which can be achieved by using of probiotics. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the influence of some feed additives (Yeasture and Biogen) on the immune response of O.niloticus. The experimental fish were divided into five groups, the first  group was served as control fed on probiotic – free diet, the second and third groups were fed on diet supplemented with Yeasture (1 and 3 g/kg feed) and the fourth and fifth groups were fed on diet supplemented with Biogen (1 and 3 g/kg feed). After 70 days of feeding, the results indicated that, the fish groups which received diet supplemented with probiotics revealed highly significant growth performance and significant increase in immune response as detected in challenge test as probiotic fed fish groups showed high resistance to the challenged pathogenic microorganisms.
