Overview

Randomized trial examines dietary selenium nanoparticles and vitamin E effects on reproduction in marine fish, suggesting improved performance.

Key Points

  • This study aims to evaluate the synergistic effects of dietary selenium nanoparticles and vitamin E on the reproductive performance of female Arabian yellowfin seabream.
  • Conducted a 90-day randomized trial with 294 female brooders divided into seven dietary treatment groups.
  • Diets included varying levels of selenium nanoparticles and vitamin E, and assessments of fertilization rates, hatching rates, and antioxidant capacity were conducted.
  • Temperature and salinity-controlled flow-through system used for optimal fish breeding conditions.
  • Fertilization rate was highest in the Se +2 E +250 group (60.2% ± 3.2%) and lowest in the control group (37.57% ± 5.2%; p < 0.05).
  • The Se +2 group showed the best hatching rates (73.0% ± 2.0%), outperforming other treatment groups.
  • Groups receiving selenium showed higher antioxidant capabilities and reduced embryonic abnormalities compared to the control.
