Abstract

Aquaculture production has grown enormously in recent years worldwide especially in Asia due to their high economic value and export. Aquaculture is the fastest growing food production sector in the world, providing almost half of the global fish/shrimp supply. Global fish and shrimp production by 2030, it is estimated that aquaculture production will grow by 40% to satisfy global fish and shrimp demand. Shrimp and fishes are rich in proteins, vitamins, omega 3 fatty acids, selenium and essential minerals and is recommended for the maintenance of strong body and healthy bones. With increasing population and health awareness the demand for high quality fish and shrimp is increasing. Nowadays, shrimps/fishes are infected by numerous pathogenic microbes which caused high mortality.
