El uso profiláctico de antibióticos en la producción animal está siendo prohibido o restringido por muchos países. Un posible sustituto de los antibióticos promotores del crecimiento en alimentos acuícolas son los ácidos orgánicos, que son el foco de mucha investigación e interés comercial.

Prophylactic use of antibiotics in animal production is being banned or restricted by many countries. A potential substitute for antibiotic growth promoters in aquafeeds is organic acids, which are the focus of much research and commercial interest.

A feeding trial measured growth, nutrient utilization and faecal/gut bacterial counts in triplicate groups of red hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis sp.). Study results show that dietary organic acids can potentially replace OTC as a growth promoter and anti-microbial in tilapia feeds.
Health & Welfare
Dietary organic acids can exert antimicrobial effects and benefit growth, nutrient utilization and other health parameters in tilapia.
