REPLACE ANTI-BIRTHDAY FROM Hoang Lien (Coptis teeta Wall)

Currently, under the increasing requirements of export markets as well as consumers, the chemical residue in seafood products is being mentioned.

In addition, the incorrect use of antibiotics, treatment regimens, and the use of antibiotics for feeding in aquaculture cause the residues of resistance in the environment quite a lot, leading to more and more antibiotic resistance. fast and serious.

At the same time, the use of antibiotics also destroys most of the intestinal microflora. Adverse effects on aquatic animals affecting the development of aquatic animals.

Herbal antimicrobials are seen as an effective alternative to antibiotics.

Hoang Lien is known to be one of the top herbs for antibacterial, increasing immunity against pathogenic bacteria.

I. Plant Characteristics

Coptis (Rhizoma Coptidis) is the rhizome of many kinds of cockroaches such as Coptis chinensis Franch., Coptis teeta Wall., Coptis deltoidea ... belongs to Hoang Lien-Ranunculaceae. [1] Hoang Lien is a herb, lived for many years, 15-35 cm tall. Leaves are sole, growing from rhizomes. Part used is rhizome (Coptis Rhizoma) has many knuckles and branched many branches look like chicken feet, so it is called Hoang Lien chicken feet. [1]

In addition to the chicken leg Hoang Lien, there are some other types of Hoang Lien thorn (Berberis wallichiana DC of the family Hoang Lien gai-Berberidaceae), Hoang Lien gai (Mahonia bealii Carr of Hoang Lien gai-Berberidaceae). Earth royal family (Thalictrum foliosum DC., Hoang Lien-Rannunculaceae). [1,2].

II. Chemical composition

The rhizome has not many alkaloid (5-8%), mainly berberine, in addition, there are worenin, coptisin, palmatin, jatrorrhizin, magnoflorin. In addition, there are also organic acids in Hoang Lien, such as Ferulic acid.

The amount of alkaloids in Hoang Lien changes according to the growth phase and weather. The highest concentration in the roots is around September-October. [1]

III. The mechanism of action

Berberine has been used as an antimicrobial agent since ancient times because of its resistance to a wide variety of microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoans. Berberine's antimicrobial mechanism is still not well understood, but recent studies have partly demonstrated its mechanism of action, such as inhibition of protein perfection as well as the release of inflammatory agents of influenza viruses; inhibition of FtsZ bacterial cell division protein, inhibition of Aspergillus spp through ergosterol biosynthesis, …

Berberine is considered to be a powerful antioxidant. In experiments ABTS, DPPH, Berberine was able to capture free radicals for remarkable efficiency, in addition to protecting cells from oxidizing agents [7]

 IV. Uses

D.V Lebedev experimented and demonstrated that Hoang Lien has anti-Staphylococus areus, Streptococus, typhoid, glass, tuberculosis ... [2]

The berberin chloride solution in vitro inhibitory effect on Streptococcus hemolyticus, Vibrio cholerae at dilution (1: 32,000), concentration (1: 16,000) for Staphylococus areus, concentration (1: 8,000) for Streotoccocus virideus, Shigella dysenteriae. [1] For digestion: Hoang Lien has the effect of helping digestion and treating inflammation of the stomach, intestines, dysentery. [2] Berberin is very less toxic, partly excreted in the urine, partly broken down in the body. [2]

In medicine, Hoang Lien is used to treat amoeba dysentery and bacillus, treat gastroenteritis, red eye pain, purulent middle ear infection, treat boils, infections …

V. Application in aquaculture.

 According to research by MOU Shao-Xia, ZHOU Xia, PENG Yao-Zong and LI Xue-Gang in 2015 on the ability to enhance immunity and against bacteria Aeromonas Hydrophyla on grass carp shows very good effects of royal venture in aquaculture. Specifically, the experiment: Fish were fed a diet containing 1; 0.5; 0.25; 0.1; 0% Hoang Lien powder and 0.05% Berberin Hcl for 28 days. Fish were then sensitized with Aeromonas hydrophyla. The results showed that after 14, the survival rate of experiments with Hoang Lien powder and berberin was significantly higher than that of the control group without Berberin. The survival rate in the experiment fed 0.5% Hoang Lien powder was the highest with 44% increase in survival compared to the group not fed. [3]

 A study of the antimicrobial effect of berberin Hcl on fish showed that berberin hcl can fight Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Vibrio vulnificus, Edwardsiella ictaluri, Escherichia coli and Streptococcus agalactiae at concentrations> 500,> 500,> 500, 300, 400 and 100 ppm. [4]

The minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) of berberine hydrochloride for E. coli, E. ictaluri and S. agalactiae were 300–500 μg mL -1. [4]

One study tested Berberine Hcl on Nil river tilapia. Fish were divided into 5 experimental lots with diets containing 0, 1, 3, 6, 9 g / kg feed respectively. Fish were examined at 4 weeks and 8 weeks after feeding. The activity of the enzyme lysozyme and peroxidase was much higher than that of the diet group without berberine HCl. The highest was in the batch with a diet of 1g / kg feed. The strong activity of 2 enzymes proves the fish's immunity is enhanced. Helps fish fight against pathogens. [5]

 Lysozyme, also known as muramidase or N-acetylmuramide glycanhydrolase is an antibacterial enzyme produced by animals that form part of the innate immune system.

Peroxidase is an enzyme involved in many different biological processes. It contributes to the prevention of pathogens. Also with the above experiment, fish were susceptible to Streptococcus agalactiae bacteria (bacteria causing eye edema and hemorrhage) results after 15 survival rates in experimental groups 0, 1, 3, 6, 9 berberine Hcl g / kg feed 25, 74, 52, 44, 39% respectively. Berberine at the rate of 1 g / kg of feed showed a much higher survival rate than the control group. [5]

 In another trial by authors Wei-Na Xu, Dan-Hong Chen, Qing-Qing Chen, Wen-Bin Liu, evaluated the immune response growth, disease resistance of caskets after 8 weeks. . The diet of 50 mg/kg berberine HCl showed faster weight gain, decreased FCR, beneficial hematological indicators such as HDL-C, LDL-C also increased, Lysozyme enzyme activity increased, substances Oxidative stresses such as MDA (meladialdehyde), LOP (lipid peroxide) decrease compared to a similar diet without berberine HCl. Mortality decreased from 80% to 50% when challenged with Aeromonas hydrophila after 96 hours. [6]

In general, Hoang Lien tree has been studied a lot and applied a lot in medicine as well as aquaculture. It shows effectiveness in antibacterial, strengthening immune factors for prevention and treatment of diseases caused by bacteria. This is a positive direction to contribute to preventing the current inappropriate use of antibiotics.

TOXIC GAS MANAGEMENT IN SHRIMP POND

To manage toxic gases in shrimp ponds, focus on a two-pronged approach: proactive prevention and reactive treatment. Proactive methods include controlling feed to avoid excess nutrients, ensuring good aeration, and maintaining water quality parameters like pH and alkalinity. Reactive measures involve water exchange, using probiotics, and applying chemicals like lime or zeolites to break down waste and neutralize toxic gases like hydrogen sulfide and ammonia.

SOLUTIONS FOR PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF INTESTINAL BACTERIAL INFECTIONS IN SHRIMP

The shrimp intestine is one of the most important organs in shrimp physiology. However, due to its simple structure, it is highly susceptible to pathogenic invasion. Intestinal bacterial infections commonly lead to several widespread problems such as segmental gut necrosis, enteritis, white feces syndrome, and empty gut, all of which directly affect productivity and crop performance

PREVENTION AND TREATMENT SOLUTIONS FOR TRANSLUCENT POST-LARVAE DISEASE (TPD) IN SHRIMP

Translucent Post-Larvae Disease (TPD), also known as “Glass Post-Larvae Disease,” is an emerging disease affecting Penaeus vannamei. It was first reported in March 2020 in China and is characterized by extremely high mortality rates, particularly in shrimp at the PL4–PL7 stages. The disease is caused by a highly virulent strain of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, designated VpTPD, which has resulted in severe economic losses—impacting 70–80% of hatcheries as well as shrimp farmers. The disease spreads rapidly and can cause up to 90% mortality within 2–3 days, leading to catastrophic financial losses if not promptly managed.

POTENTIAL OF IgY PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY AND ITS APPLICATIONS IN VETERINARY MEDICINE AND AQUACULTURE

Immunoglobulin of the yolk is an immune globulin produced by hens to protect chicks during the first weeks of life against emerging pathogens. It is functionally equivalent to immunoglobulin G found in the colostrum of mammals. IgY is a completely natural antibody product. A primary goal of animal welfare is to reduce painful procedures. IgY technology meets this requirement because antibodies are collected non-invasively through egg collection rather than blood sampling, which causes stress and pain in mammals. IgY technology also offers significant economic advantages since raising hens is far more cost-effective than raising rabbits, sheep, or horses for antibody production.

PROTOCOL FOR PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF ACUTE HEPATOPANCREATIC NECROSIS DISEASE (AHPND) IN SHRIMP

A protocol for preventing and treating Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease (AHPND) in shrimp involves biosecurity, farm management, and advanced techniques like phage therapy and probiotics. Prevention focuses on stringent biosecurity to prevent pathogen introduction, while management techniques include regular water changes, siphoning, and careful feed optimization. If the disease is confirmed, treatment may involve disinfecting the pond and its contents, and future efforts are exploring technologies like vaccination and immune enhancement through plant-based compounds.

SOLUTIONS FOR PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF BLACK SPOT DISEASE IN WHITELEG SHRIMP

Prevention of black spot disease in whiteleg shrimp involves maintaining good water quality, preventing injuries, managing feed residue, and using biosecurity measures. Treatment can include post-harvest dipping in solutions like sodium bisulfite or ascorbic acid, and in some cases, in-pond treatments such as slaked lime or probiotics may be used. Improve pond conditions: Maintain good water quality and clean pond bottoms to remove waste and feed residue. Biosecurity: use disease-free seed shrimp, disinfect water before filling ponds, prevent wild shrimp, crabs, and clams from entering the pond.

Prevention of White Feces Syndrome, White Gut Disease and White Muscle Disease in Shrimp

Shrimp culture tends to now be developed intensively with upgraded technology for higher and successful production. On many occasions, shrimp culture is affected by various diseases and experienced in the loss of crop or reduced the production level by various reasons, writes Mr. Prakash Chandra Behera, India. Intensive and semi-intensive aquafarming accompanies several disease problems often due to opportunistic pathogens as evident from general aquaculture. High stocking densities, high food inputs, and other organic loads stimulate the selection and proliferation of opportunistic pathogens like bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, etc.
