Nanotechnology is revolutionizing various agricultural sectors, including aquaculture. This book is a unique and comprehensive exploration of the recent trends in aquaculture, specifically tailored for nanotechnology for aquaculture development. It aims to fill a gap in current literature by compiling important ideas into ten chapters that provide a holistic idea of how nanoparticles can be leveraged for aquaculture development.
The book begins with an overview of the history and development of nanomaterials in aquaculture. It further explores the biosynthesis of nanoparticles and nanomaterials for aquaculture, highlighting their important role in enhancing fish feed development, vaccine formulation, and drug delivery. The book also addresses the innovative application of nano-nutraceuticals, harvest and post-harvest processes, which are revolutionary in health, nutrition, and product quality in aquaculture. Additionally, the book discusses advanced nanotechnology techniques for water quality enhancement and bio-nanotechnology for sustainable aquaculture practices and future applications in aquaculture genetics. Furthermore, the book provides an in-depth knowledge of the development and management of nanomaterials for aquaculture devices, ensuring readers gain a complete understanding of the potential applications of nanoparticles in the aquaculture field.
