Toxicity assessment and <scp> anti‐ <i>Vibrio</i> </scp> activity of essential oils: Potential for application in shrimp aquaculture

This present paper aimed to review the past 4 years (2019–2022), inhibition of Vibrio spp. (including Vibrio's causing AHPND) by EOs, as well potential toxicity EOs towards crustaceans, with an emphasis on Artemia In review, 27 from terrestrial plants are reported regarding their anti-Vibrio activity. Among these studies, Salvia officinalis and Thymus vulgaris (Lamiaceae family) were found be most numerous. spp., V. parahaemolyticus (non-AHPND strain) was mostly researched. There in total 68 publications about Based four categories (strongly toxic: LC50 < 100 μg/ml, moderately LC50:100–500 weakly LC50: 500–1000 non-toxic: > 1000 μg/ml), strong activity 37 moderate 15 weak for three EO 13 non-toxic extracts. fact, values low 10.25 11.48 μg/ml described Artemisia Euryale ferox, respectively, showing two plant strongly toxic Artemia. Overall, despite being generally considered “eco-friendly natural” products safer than antibiotics, some target organisms. Thus, establish ecologically safe application shrimp aquaculture, correct use (in terms concentrations duration) aquaculture should considered.
