Journal ArticleDOI

Nanotechnology: A Novel Tool for Aquaculture and Fisheries Development. A Prospective Mini-Review

TL;DR: Nanotechnology applications in the fish processing industry can be utilized to detect bacteria in packaging, produce stronger flavours, colour quality, and safety by increasing the barrier properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chitosan-nanoconjugated hormone nanoparticles for sustained surge of gonadotropins and enhanced reproductive output in female fish.

TL;DR: This is the first report on use of chitosan-conjugated nanodelivery of gonadotropic hormone in fish and the pronounced effect of nanoparticles on reproductive output is attested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular characterization of kisspeptin gene and effect of nano-encapsulted kisspeptin-10 on reproductive maturation in Catla catla.

TL;DR: The study reports that this sustained release delivery system will help in increasing the half-life of K-10 and other therapeutic protein drugs in the biological system and may be useful for developing therapies against various reproductive dysfunctions in vertebrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression analysis of Sox9 genes during annual reproductive cycles in gonads and after nanodelivery of LHRH in Clarias batrachus

TL;DR: Findings clearly indicate that Sox9 genes play essential role during seasonal variation of gonads and sustained release delivery-system will be helpful for proper gonadal development of fish.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNA-Loaded Chitosan Nanoparticles for Enhanced Growth, Immunostimulation and Disease Resistance in Fish

TL;DR: As growth, immunity and disease resistance in fish given dietary nano-sized RNA were significantly higher than in those given bare RNA or chitosan alone, and as nanoformulation reduced the usage of individual components by half, the use of RNA-loaded ch itosan NPs can be favoured in the feed/food industry over chitOSan and RNA alone.
