Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03103692A1] Probiont- and prebiont-loaded zooplankton, such as Brachionus plicatilis and Artemia nauplii, are obtained by culturing zooplankton in the presence of the probionts or prebionts. Probionts or prebionts are loaded into zooplankton in such a manner as to maintain their viability and/or bioactivity. Zooplankton are cultured with free or microencapsulated probionts and/or prebionts, and used as a vector for probiont and/or prebiont delivery to larval and juvenile fish, and crustaceans. The survival rate in breeding larvae and juveniles can be remarkably improved by feeding the probiont- and/or prebiont-containing zooplankton to the larvae or juveniles.
