The marine environment constitutes a relatively untapped source of biologically active compounds that can be applied in various areas, such as improvement of animal performance, health maintenance, and disease prevention. Numerous marine-based compounds isolated from marine organisms (especially seaweeds) have diverse biological activities, including antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral activities that can be beneficial to animal health. Additionally, the application of marine bioactives as feed additives can increase the nutritional value of products of animal origin. In this Special Issue, the main attention was focused on seaweeds and their application in poultry (laying hen and broiler chickens) and pig feed. The suitable processing of marine resources required for their optimal use as feed/feed additives was underlined. The contained publications present scientific evidence for the use of various seaweeds as feed additives that improve health (enhanced immunity, prebiotic effect), growth performance, and production. Inclusion of this unconventional material in animal nutrition can enrich products with active compounds, such as micro- and macroelements, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and pigments which are beneficial for consumers. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aFood & society$2bicssc 610 $agreen macroalgae 610 $amicroelements 610 $afeed additive 610 $afeeding experiment 610 $agrowing pigs 610 $ared seaweeds 610 $afloridoside 610 $aantibiotics 610 $aefflux pumps 610 $aSalmonella 610 $apoultry 610 $aseaweed-supplemented feed 610 $aprebiotics 610 $aanti-microbial 610 $agastrointestinal flora 610 $aimmunity 610 $aanimal nutrition market 610 $aseaweeds 610 $afeed supplement 610 $aanimal nutrition 610 $amacroalgae (seaweeds) 610 $afeed 610 $afood 610 $aHomo sapiens 610 $aagriculture 610 $ahealth 610 $aactive compounds 610 $apoultry performance 610 $ahealth status 610 $afood enrichment 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aFood & society 700 $aMichalak$b Izabela$4edt$01302219 702 $aMichalak$b Izabela$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557475503321 996 $aMarine Biologically Active Compounds as Feed Additives$93026264 997 $aUNINA
