Boosting Productivity in Aquaculture with Nucleotide-Enriched Diets  Introduction Brazil, indeed a blessed nation with a coastline stretching over 8,500 kilometers and, according to sources, holding between 8% and 13.7% of all the freshwater available on the planet, is rightfully positioned as a promising superpower in the global aquaculture context. Despite its challenges, the national aquaculture sector has seen exponential growth in recent years, particularly in shrimp and fish production, driven by both domestic and international demand. As Brazil's aquaculture industry continues to expand, it faces various challenges, including the need to meet this growing demand in an environmentally sustainable and economically viable manner. This brings us to a crucial aspect, the optimization of specially formulated diets to meet the [...]

Oral administration of nucleotides in calves: Effects on oxidativestatus, immune response, and intestinal mucosa development. The study was performed on Ribofeed A recent publication from Bari University (Italy) published on Journal of Dairy Sciences has demonstrated the efficacy of Ribofeed, a product containing yeast nucleotides, in calves: effects on oxidative status, immune response and intestinal mucosa development. A total of 40 male Holstein Friesian calves were divided in 2 groups. All the calves were born and reared on the same commercial dairy farm. The nucleotides group (NG) was orally administered with 5 g/head of an additive containing hydrolyzed yeast (Ribofeed, Prosol SpA) once daily from birth to 25 d. In conclusion, Ribofeed administration increased the intestinal villi height and [...]
