Growth Performance, Antioxidative Capacity, and Intestinal Histomorphology of Grey Mullet (Liza ramada)–Fed Dietary Zinc Nanoparticles

Zinc is one of the essential microelements involved in vital physiological and biological functions in the fish body. The study evaluated the growth performance, antioxidative capacity, and intestinal histomorphology of Grey Mullet ( Liza ramada )–fed dietary zinc nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) at 0, 10, 2...

Description
Summary:Zinc is one of the essential microelements involved in vital physiological and biological functions in the fish body. The study evaluated the growth performance, antioxidative capacity, and intestinal histomorphology of Grey Mullet ( Liza ramada )–fed dietary zinc nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) at 0, 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg for the first time. The final weight and specific growth rate (SGR) of Grey Mullet–fed dietary ZnO-NPs at 20 and 40 mg/kg were meaningfully enhanced ( p
