Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an essential dietary ingredient for fish, prawn

and shrimp. Fish, prawn and shrimp are unable to biosynthesize Vitamin C.

Vitamin C is essential in prawn and shrimp for disease resistance.

Vitamin C has also been linked to improve immune response,

hormone production, mineral absorption and metabolism,

and plays an important role in shell development and protein metabolism of prawn and shrimp.

Vitamin C has also been shown to help in detoxification of toxins, chemicals, pesticides and drugs.

One of the important functions of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) entering in the collagen synthesis,

which is an important aspect in muscle development of fish prawn and shrimp.

Deficiency symptoms of Vitamin C:

Fish:

Anorexia, Poor and reduced growth, impaired wound healing, Scoliosis (Bone deformity lateral)

Lordosis (Bone deformity vertical), impaired function of collagen; abnormal cartilage; eye lesions;

Hemorrhagic skin, liver, kidney, intestine and muscle and increased susceptibility

to pathogenic bacterial infection and reduced absorption of calcium from surrounding water.

Deficiency of ascorbic acid in the diet results in metabolic disorders leading to diseases.

Prawn and Shrimp:

Deficiency of ascorbic acid in the diet of prawn and shrimp results in reduced feed intake,

poor conversion of food and protein, high incidence of post-molt deaths, dystrophy of muscle

and hepatopancreas, blackening of gills and in extreme cases black death disease,

whitened or blackened lesions and high rates of mortality.

In prawn and shrimp vitamin C deficiency lead to the inhibition of alkaline

phosphatase activity resulting in poor chitin synthesis and sclerotization of the epicuticle.

Improving immune system function.

Reduces the effects of toxic chemicals in water

and prevent negative effects of water temperature fluctuations.

Helps in synthesis of carnitine, adrenaline, epinephrine, the neurotransmitter serotonin,

the thyroid hormone thyroxine, bile acids, and steroid hormones.

Regulates the moult phase and helps in quick formation of exoskeleton in shrimps.

The requirement for ascorbic acid is related to stress, growth rate and size of fish,

prawn and shrimp as well as to the other nutrients present in the diet.
