Healthy fish (Fish weighed = 10.30 ± 0.10 g at first) were randomly allocated into 4 equal groups, each with three replicates. These groups were designed as follows: (1) a group fed a basal diet without probiotics (control), (2) a group fed a diet containing S. cerevisiae (4 g/kg diet), (3) a group fed a diet containing L. bulgaricus (2 g/kg diet), and (4) the last group fed a diet containing a combination of both, all for a duration of 60 days. Probiotic-treated groups showed significantly better growth and nutrition utilization Scientific reports7379https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC10978984biostudies-literatureEvaluation of different probiotics on growth, body composition, antioxidant capacity, and histoarchitecture of Mugil capito.PMC10978984Shehata AIAbdel-Latif HMRGewaily MSAhmed HAShukry MSoliman AAAmer AAfalseEvaluation of different probiotics on growth, body composition, antioxidant capacity, and histoarchitecture of Mugil capito.We investigated the dietary effects of the single application of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, and their combination on growth, proximate composition of whole fish body, antioxidant defense, and histoarchitecture of hapa-reared Mugil capito.
