ABSTRACT

Aquaculture represents one of the fastest–growing animal food–producing sectors worldwide. One of the main challenges is to obtain high–volume production with the highest possible quality, this leads to reduce the use of antibiotics and chemotherapeutics. A promising solution to these problems is the application of immune–potentiatiors mainly in intensive farming. This article aims to review the main immune–potentiators, as well as the trends and challenges of global use of them. It summarizes the main molecular and functional characteristics with emphasis on those most studied such as levamisole, β-glucans, lipopolysaccharide, vitamin C, plant extracts and hormones. All these heterogeneous compounds, mostly affect the innate immunity of fish, strengthening and enhancing disease resistance and some of them additionally have anti–stress effect and promote fish growth. We conclude that immune–potentiators are a viable strategy to reduce losses for health problems in aquaculture field, however, aspects such as administration route and appropriate immunization phase for each species remains to be solved.
