Dietary Supplementation of Nanomaterials Additives in Aquaculture - A Review

Aquaculture is the best growing food production division in the globe. Infection outbreaks are also a most important problem for the aquaculture productions. Different types of technological development are uses to improve healthy aquaculture production and enhance the aquatic environment. Nanotechnology is most significant tool for the development of aquatic productions. These techniques are used to detect the infection at short time, deliver the vaccine, drugs and feed for aquatic animals. This review provides information about dietary feed with supplementation of different nanomaterials such as copper, selenium, magnesium, manganese, iron, zinc, chromium, chitosan is utilized to enhance immune system, digestive function, disease resistance, antioxidant activity, growth performance, survival, regulate the metabolic functions, gut health, bio availability, feed intake, feed conversion of diverse aquatic animals. These nanomaterials are mainly focused to improve the nano-nutrient in the feed supplements in aquaculture and enhance the healthy aquatic production.
