Overview

Sadasivam Kaushik is affiliated with the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in Spain. Their research primarily focuses on agricultural and biological sciences, environmental science, and biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology. Within these broader fields, Kaushik works extensively on aquatic science, immunology, physiology, nutrition and dietetics, and topics related to health, toxicology, and mutagenesis.

Their main research topics cover a broad range of aquaculture-related themes. These include aquaculture nutrition and growth, aquaculture disease management and microbiota, reproductive biology and impacts on aquatic species, selenium in biological systems, physiological and biochemical adaptations, mercury impact and mitigation studies, and fish ecology and management studies.

Kaushik has published multiple papers across well-known journals and venues, including:

  • Nutrition and Metabolism of Minerals in Fish, 2021, Animals
  • Nutrition and Metabolism of Minerals in Fish, 2021, Preprints.org
  • A SWOT Analysis of the Use of Marine, Grain, Terrestrial-Animal and Novel Protein Ingredients in Aquaculture Feeds, 2024, Reviews in Fisheries Science & Aquaculture
  • Nutrient footprint and ecosystem services of carp production in European fishponds in contrast to EU crop and livestock sectors, 2020, Journal of Cleaner Production
  • Essential amino acid requirements of fish and crustaceans, a meta-analysis, 2023, Reviews in Aquaculture

Their work appears frequently in the following publication venues:

  • Animals
  • Aquaculture
  • HAL (Le Centre pour la Communication Scientifique Directe)
  • British Journal Of Nutrition
  • Reviews in Aquaculture

Frequent collaborators in Kaushik's research include Stéphanie Fontagné-Dicharry, Pauline Wischhusen, Philip Antony Jesu Prabhu, Benoît Fauconneau, and Kangsen Mai.
