Summary: In this study, Limosilactobacillus fermentum GR-3 strain isolated from water was found to have high adsorption capacity for Arsenic (As) and strong antioxidant abilities. When added to crayfish feed, the strain effectively reduced the concentration of As(III) and restored gut microbiota dysbiosis caused by As(III) exposure. The application of this strain in aquaculture also resulted in a decrease in As(III) accumulation and increased production.

Summary: This study investigated the changes in gut microbial community and immunity of red swamp crayfish under different nutritional states. Starvation increased the number and abundance of microbial species, while re-feeding restored them. Starvation disrupted the stability of the gut microbial community, while re-feeding helped restore the balance. Re-feeding also reversed the negative effects of starvation on immunity and gut health.

Summary: This study investigated the subacute toxicity of the agricultural herbicide glufosinateammonium (GLA) on crayfish. The results showed that GLA exposure caused structural damage to the hepatopancreatic tissue, decreased antioxidant capacity, and non-specific immunity in crayfish. These findings provide important insights into the toxicity of herbicides on non-target organisms.

Summary: This study investigated the risk of acute and subchronic toxicity of cyhalofop-butyl and pyribenzoxim to Procambarus clarkii. The results showed that the exposure to these herbicides could accumulate in the muscle of P. clarkii, hinder its growth, induce muscle damage, and significantly affect the antioxidant system and nutrient substance synthesis.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of complex organic acids (COA) treatment at different concentrations on the myofibrillar protein (MP) structure and meat quality of crayfish (Procambarus clarkii). The results showed that the increasing concentrations of COA treatment led to a decrease in sulfhydryl content and an increase in dityrosine content of MP. There was a reduction in alpha-helix content and an increase in ss-fold content of MP secondary structure. The MP tertiary structure unfolded, exposing hydrophobic and other amino acids to a polar environment. Aggregation of MP was induced in the 1% and 5% COA treatment groups, while degradation of MP was induced in the 10% and 15% COA treatment groups. The 5% COA treatment group showed improved textural properties and enhanced color, aroma, and micromorphology of crayfish meat.

Summary: In this study, the Cd toxicokinetics, immune response, and antioxidant defense were investigated in Procambarus clarkii exposed to different levels of Cd. Results showed that Cd accumulation in crayfish tissues was dose- and time-dependent, with the highest concentration in gills. The addition of Bacillus subtilis decreased Cd accumulation and improved immune and antioxidant defense in crayfish. Cd exposure caused pathological damage and inhibited enzyme activities in crayfish, which were restored by B. subtilis supplementation.

Summary: This study examines the effects of selenomethionine (SeMet) on crayfish exposed to the pesticide thiamethoxam (TMX). Results show that SeMet administration increases survival rate and reduces bioaccumulation of TMX in crayfish. Severe damage to the hepatopancreas caused by TMX exposure is alleviated with SeMet treatment. SeMet also mitigates the TMX-induced changes in serum biochemistry and antioxidant activity. These findings highlight the importance of SeMet in mitigating the toxic effects of pesticides.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of acute cadmium exposure on lipid metabolism disorder, oxidative stress, and autophagy in the abdominal muscle of Procambarus clarkii. The results showed that acute cadmium exposure induced lipid metabolism disorder and oxidative stress, and inhibited the expression of autophagy-related genes. These findings contribute to understanding the mechanism of cadmium muscular toxicity in crustaceans.

Summary: The effects of Alternanthera philoxeroides and Elodea nuttallii as food sources on the growth and muscle quality of crayfish were studied. Feeding aquatic grasses had no significant effect on crayfish survival and body length growth. However, the body weight of crayfish in the control group was significantly higher than that of the other groups. Elodea nuttallii as an auxiliary feed promoted crayfish growth and improved the amino acid composition of muscle, while Alternanthera philoxeroides had a poor effect on crayfish.

Summary: This study evaluated enzymatic rice protein (RP) and enzymatic fish paste (FP) as potential alternatives to fishmeal in industrial aquafeeds. Results showed that replacing 2.5% fishmeal with RP could improve the weight gain rate of fish, while growth was reduced when the replacement reached 7.5%. Moreover, a mixture of 5.0% FP and 5.0% RP could completely replace fishmeal, maintaining growth and promoting muscle development and antioxidant properties.

Summary: This study investigated the transfer of fatty acids from broodstock diets to eggs and the time needed for the eggs to equilibrate to the diet in Southern flounder. The findings indicate that different diet treatments significantly affect the fatty acid composition of eggs, and it takes 8-16 weeks for the eggs to adapt to changes in the adult diet. These results are important for improving broodstock diets and feeding protocols in stock-enhancement programs.
