Full Description
Alternatives to Antibiotics in Sustainable Aquaculture explores issues associated with antimicrobial use and the available alternatives to support aquatic animal health. Aquaculture is a rapidly expanding pillar of global food production that sustains the livelihoods and food security of more than one billion people. Infectious bacterial disease is a primary challenge to sustainable aquaculture operations. The control of these diseases has relied heavily on antimicrobials, leading to serious issues associated with residues, antimicrobial resistance, and adverse environmental impacts. This book unveils the issues related to antimicrobial use and offers alternative approaches to foster a more sustainable global aquaculture industry. Edited by leading experts in aquatic animal health, this book systematically explores diverse alternatives to antimicrobial use. These approaches encompass natural-based antibiotic substitutes, antimicrobial peptides, probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics, as well as immunostimulants and feed additives. Additionally, chemical alternatives, vaccines, bacteriophages, quorum quenching, and antibiofilm approaches are explored. The future of aquatic animal health is explored through the lens of novel technologies, including genomic and metabolomic approaches, nanotechnology, and nanobubble methods. Alternatives to Antibiotics in Sustainable Aquaculture will provide insightful knowledge for individuals from both academic and private sectors, as well as policymakers and regulators. The knowledge gathered in this book is intended to positively guide aquaculture supply chains toward a sustainable transformation of the industry.
