Results revealed variations in protein digestibility across developmental stages of L. vannamei, underscoring the importance of stage-specific dietary formulations. 

Un estudio fue llevado a cabo para medir los efectos de probióticos comerciales en camarón blanco del Pacífico en un modelo de desafío a AHPND estandarizado bajo condiciones controladas de laboratorio. Los resultados muestran que los tratamientos de probióticos por sí mismos tienen efectos beneficiosos, como una mayor supervivencia y signos histológicos de regeneración de hepatopáncreas. 

A study was conducted to measure the effects of commercial probiotics on Pacific white shrimp in a standardized AHPND challenge model under controlled laboratory conditions. Results show that the probiotics treatments by themselves have beneficial effects, such as higher survival and histological signs of hepatopancreas regeneration. 

Early Mortality Syndrome has devastated farmed shrimp in Asia and Latin America. With better understanding of the pathogen and the development and improvement of novel strategies, shrimp farmers are now able to better manage the disease. 

In early 2014, a trial to evaluate the effects of a mixture of Bacillus strains on early mortality syndrome bacteria during the larviculture and nursery phases for shrimp was carried out at a commercial hatchery in Mexico. 

A recent study that evaluated the benefits of using probiotics with a balanced mixture of Bacillus bacteria strains to inhibit pathogenic bacteria in tilapia. 

Sea bream fry are produced using the greenwater technique in which microalgae are added to larval-rearing tanks during the first 20 to 30 days after hatching. 

Maintaining healthy stock requires a multidisciplinary approach that focuses on hygiene and both environmental and animal conditions. 

Some ciliated protozoa (ciliates) may be a valuable complimentary source of nutrients for first feeding larval stages of farmed shrimp.
