Novel use of Quillaja saponaria extracts to prevent viral infections in Atlantic salmon: in vitro ISAv and IPNv inhibition and in vivo protection against IPNv
These findings indicate that <i>Quillaja saponaria</i> extracts may be used as effective, natural, non-pharmacological additives to prevent diseases caused by these viruses. Their use supports the development of sustainable and environmentally responsible disease-management strategies in modern aquaculture.
