Why is it necessary to protect the shrimp’s liver?

All activities in the shrimp body are ruled and affected by the hepatopancreas organ. For a healthy body, good growth, and successful crop, farmers should pay special attention to the farmed shrimp hepatopancreas.

• The role of the hepatopancreas

Detoxifying and anti-stress for shrimp when facing adverse conditions

Secreting digestive enzymes

Absorbing and digesting the feed

Storing lipid droplets, glycogen, nutrients, and minerals

Transporting digestive substances

Synthesizing protein in the shrimp body

*Common diseases on shrimp hepatopancreas include liver swelling, atrophy, discoloration.

The hepatopancreas is the most nutrient-dense organ in the shrimp body. Impaired hepatopancreas function and aging immune system create conditions for harmful organisms such as viruses, parasites, and molds to enter the shrimp hepatopancreas

• Disease management

Periodically monitor water quality, check the health of shrimp hepatopancreas and water environment to handle when occurring pathogens promptly.
