Roles of Manganese in Aquaculture

Enzyme Activation: Manganese is a cofactor for several enzymes involved in important metabolic processes, such as energy metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, and lipid metabolism.

Bone Formation: It plays a role in bone formation and skeletal development, especially in crustaceans.

Antioxidant Activity: Manganese is involved in antioxidant defense mechanisms, protecting cells from oxidative stress.

Immune Function: It can contribute to a strong immune system, helping fish and other aquatic organisms resist diseases.
