Title Bioencapsulation as a mode of drug delivery in marine larval rearing
 
Creator Mohamed, K S
 
Subject Aquaculture
Fish Pathology
 
Description By virtue of the size and feeding habits, most live feeds are size specific filter feeders. Therefore,
it is possible to incorporate into the live feed particles say an antibiotic or therapeutic
drug like Romet-30 or a probiotic organism of the appropriate size. This process called
bio-encapsulation is thus an innovative means of delivering drugs and probiotic
organisms to the larvae. Indeed, for fish larvae that are active sight feeders, it is the
only effective means of drug delivery.
