The Aquaculture Podcast Show - Prebiotics in Shrimp Aquaculture | Ep. 3

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we talk about a recent U.S. study on biofloc systems and prebiotics in Pacific white shrimp. The research looks at how prebiotics like FOS, GOS, and MOS affect microbiota communities, shrimp composition, and overall system health. Discover how these insights could improve shrimp farming for better long-term resilience, stability, and nutrition. Tune in now on all major platforms!

Inspired by the 2024 article titled "Effect of Prebiotics Added to the Culture Water on the Bacterial Profiles of Biofloc Particles and the Gills, Hepatopancreas, and Intestine of Penaeus Vannamei" by Rosales-Leija, Misael, et al.
