ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: An-eight week experiment was conducted to test efficacy of corncob derived xylooligosaccharides (CDXOS) on Corncob mucosal and serum immune, disease resistance, and growth performance of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Xylooligosaccharide Three hundred and twenty tilapia fingerlings (20.72 ± 0.02 g) were fed the following diets; 0 (Diet 1- control), − Nile tilapia added 5 – (Diet 2), 10 – (Diet 3), and 20 g kg 1 CDXOS (Diet 4). After 4 and 8 weeks feeding were mucosal, Growth performance serum immune responses, and growth performance measured. A challenge test (15 days) against Streptococcus Mucosal immune parameters agalactiae was conducted after 8 weeks post-feeding.

Highest (P < 0.05) innate immune parameters − were observed by feeding the fish 10 g kg 1 CDXOS vs. the other treatments. With regard to the challenge test, relative percent survival (RSP) of Nile tilapia fingerlings fed Diet 2, Diet 3, and Diet 4 was 34.78%, 60.87%, and − 30.43%, respectively. Among the supplemented groups, dietary inclusion of 10 g kg 1 CDXOS revealed sig- nificant (P < 0.05) higher RPS and resistance towards S. agalactiae than the other groups. Regarding growth performance, final weight, weight gain, specific growth rate, and feed conversion ratio were remarkably − (P < 0.05) improved in the CDXOS groups; highest improvement was observed in the 10 g kg 1 CDXOS − treatment. In conclusion, inclusion of 10 g kg 1 CDXOS derived from corncob improved growth performance and health status of Nile tilapia fingerlings. 1.

For pellets preparation, fine ingredients were completely corncob dried in oven at 60 °C for 48 h, then ground by using hammer mixed together, and soybean-oil and water were added to produce stiff mill, and filtered with the use of 100-mesh size sieve, and stored at 4 °C dough.
