Immunomodulatory effect of alginic acid from brown seaweed sargassum wightii on disease resistance in penaeus monodon

In recent days, bacterial diseases are very common among all the aquatic organisms. Particularly in grow out ponds they cause heavy loss in aquaculture. To overcome this problem, the use of antibiotics become a common practice, thus leads to the development of antibiotic resistant strains. In this...
