Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid expansion of the aquaculture industry necessitates a deep understanding of fish’s nutrition and metabolism. These aspects not only impact fish health and yield but also have economic implications. We are pleased to invite you to submit your research for this Special Issue of “Metabolites”, dedicated to studies on fish’s nutrition and metabolism. This Special Issue aims to showcase studies on novel ingredients (e.g., protein, lipid, and carbohydrates) and functional feed additives (e.g., polysaccharides, plant extracts, bile acids, and bacterial products) in fish. By providing a broad and precise perspective on nutrition and metabolism, this Special Issue will contribute to the advancement of sustainable aquaculture practices.
The submission of original research articles and reviews for this Special Issue is encouraged. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: fishmeal and fish oil replacements, novel feed additives, fish’s nutritional requirements, and fish environments.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
