A 45‐day feeding trial was conducted to study the stress ameliorating and immunomodulatory role of microbial levan in Cyprinus carpio fry exposed to sublethal dose (1/10th LC50) of fipronil [(±)‐5‐amino‐1‐(2,6‐dichloro‐α,α,α‐trifluoro‐p‐tolyl)‐4‐trifluoromethylsulfinylpyrazole‐3‐carbonitrile]. Two hundred and twenty‐five fry were randomly distributed in five treatments in triplicates. Four purified diets were prepared with graded levels of microbial levan. Five different treatment groups were levan control L0P0 (basalfeed + 0% levan without exposure to pesticide); pesticide control L0P1 (basalfeed + 0% levan with exposure to pesticide); L0.25P1 (basalfeed + 0.25% levan with exposure to pesticide); L0.50P1 (basalfeed + 0.50% levan with exposure to pesticide) and L0.75P1 (basalfeed + 0.75% levan with exposure to pesticide). Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH) and fructose‐1,6‐diphosphatase (FDPase) activites were significantly (P < 0.05) increased, whereas alkaline phosphatase (ALP), adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) and acetyl choline esterase (AchE) activities were significantly (P < 0.05) reduced in higher levan‐fed groups. RBC, haemoglobin and WBC counts were significantly (P < 0.05) increased in the levan‐fed groups. Similar trends were also observed for the total serum protein, globulin, NBT and lysozyme activities. Blood glucose and serum cortisol exhibited a third order polynomial relationship with increasing level of dietary levan. Overall result showed stress ameliorating, immunostimulating and protective role of microbial levan against fipronil‐induced stress in C. carpio fry at 0.75% level of dietary levan supplementation. 相似文献

To investigate the effects of starvation and acclimation temperature on the escape ability of juvenile rose bitterling (Rhodeus ocellatus), we measured the fast-start escape and constant acceleration swimming performance of fish fasted for 0 (control), 1 and 2 weeks and half-lethal periods (6 or 4 weeks) at two temperatures (15 and 25 °C). Fish acclimated at a high temperature exhibited shorter response latency (R), higher maximum linear velocity (V max) and longer escape distance during escape movement (D 120ms) than those at the low temperature. Starvation resulted in a significant decrease in V max and D 120ms at either low or high temperature and a significant increase in R at only the high temperature in the half-lethal period groups (P < 0.05). The relationship between V max (Y, m s?1) and starvation time (X, week) was Y 15 = ?0.062X + 1.568 (r = ?0.665, n = 36, P < 0.001) at low temperature and Y 25 = ?0.091X + 1.755 (r = ?0.391, n = 40, P = 0.013) at high temperature. The relationship between U cat (Y, cm s?1) and starvation time (X, week) was Y 15 = ?1.649X + 55.418 (r = ?0.398, n = 34, P = 0.020) at low temperature and Y 25 = ?4.917X + 62.916 (r = ?0.793, n = 33, P < 0.001) at high temperature. The slopes of equations showed a significant difference between low and high temperature (F 1,63 = 9.688, P = 0.003), which may be due to the different energy substrate utilization when faced with food deprivation at different temperatures. 相似文献

A 30-day acclimation trial was conducted using Tor putitora to elucidate its thermal tolerance, oxygen consumption, haemato-biochemical variables and selected enzymatic activities at five acclimation temperatures (AT). Juveniles of T. putitora were randomly distributed among five treatment groups (20, 23, 26, 29 and 32 ± 0.5 °C). There was a significant curvilinear increase in critical thermal maxima (CTmax) (y = ?0.0693x 2 + 1.7927x + 34.628, R 2 = 0.996) and lethal thermal maxima (LTmax) (y = ?0.1493x 2 + 2.3407x + 35.092, R 2 = 0.991) with increasing AT. The oxygen consumption rate increased significantly with increasing AT. The Q 10 values were 1.16 between 20 and 23 °C, 3.09 between 23 and 26 °C, 1.31 between 26 and 29 °C and 1.76 between 29 and 32 °C of AT. The acclimation response ratios were ranged between 0.37 and 0.59. Catalase, superoxide dismutase and ATPase activities were increased linearly in liver, gill and kidney, while brain acetylcholine esterase activity decreased linearly with increasing AT. Blood glucose remained unchanged up to AT of 26 °C and increased significantly at AT of 29 and 32 °C. Haemoglobin content was increased linearly with increasing AT. The highest WBC count was observed at 20 °C, and no significant changes found till AT of 26 °C and significantly decreased at 32 °C. Total serum protein and globulin were significantly decreased with increasing AT. Highest values were observed at 20 °C and remained consistent till 26 °C, then decreased significantly. There was no significant change in A/G ratio through the AT 20–29 °C and increased significantly at 32 °C. The increase in CTmax, LTmax and oxygen consumption rate with increasing AT may suggest that the thermal tolerance of T. putitora is dependent on its prior thermal exposure history, and it could adapt to higher AT by altering its haemato-biochemical variables. 相似文献

Abalone culture systems are characterised by high water exchange rates as abalone are sensitive to changes in water quality. To reduce the costs of pumping, serial reuse systems have been tested. As water pH can decline in these systems, this study determined the effect of raising pH through the addition of sodium hydroxide (NaOH?) on weight gain, length gain and feed conversion ratio of H. midae in a serial-use raceway. Dosing with NaOH? increased pH by 0.3, 0.27 and 0.21 units at positions 1, 2 and 3 of a serial-pass system, respectively. Weight gain (Wg) and length gain (Lg) were correlated with pH (Wg: F 1, 16 = 16.35, P = 0.0009, r 2 = 0.51; Lg: F 1, 16 = 16.16, P = 0.0009, r 2 = 0.50), and using pH, dissolved oxygen and free ammonia nitrogen as independent variables suggested that water pH was the best predictor for abalone growth. 相似文献

In this research, the mineral and organic composition of the seminal plasma, physical spermatological parameters and their physiological relationships were investigated in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). The seminal plasma contained 98.14±5.23 mM L?1 (Na+), 380.85±25.95 mM L?1 (K+), 30.25±4.96 mg dL?1 (Ca2+), 19.16±1.70 mEq L?1 (Mg2+), 1.36±0.11 mg dL?1 glucose, 0.37±0.08 g dL?1 total protein, 12.02±1.18 mg dL?1 cholesterol, 14.85±1.50 mg dL?1 triglyceride and 43.5±9.56 mg dL?1 urea. The following spermatological parameters were found: sperm volume 14.44±1.16 mL, sperm motility 80.60±1.55%, movement duration 67.68±4.32 s, density 15.43±0.72 × 109 mL?1, total density 337.43+45.86 × 109 and pH 7.24±0.17. The Na+ and Ca2+ ions correlated negatively with spermatozoa motility (r=?0.453, P>0.05 and r=?0.192, P>0.05) respectively. The K+ ion correlated positively with spermatozoa motility (r=0.545, P>0.05). But a statistically significant correlation was not observed between sperm motility and seminal plasma parameters. The following correlations were observed between mineral and organic components. The Mg2+ was positively correlated with glucose and cholesterol (r=0.692, P<0.05 and r=0.680, P<0.05) respectively. A highly significant positive relationship was also found between Mg2+ and total protein (r=0.837, P<0.01). On the other hand, a significantly negative relationship was found between Ca2+ and triglyceride (r=?0.639, P<0.05). These parameters should be considered when developing procedures for either artificial fertilization or for cryopreservation of grass carp sperm. 相似文献

Counting of the growth layers in the earplugs is the most accepted technique for determining chronological age of Antarctic minke whales; however, unreadable growth layers form in some individuals, especially in young animals. In this study, aspartic acid racemization (AAR) technique was developed for estimating ages in this species with the aim of complementing the age estimated using earplugs. To validate the technique and to determine the specific coefficients for age estimation, the ratio of d and l-enantiomers of aspartic acid (Asp D/L) in lens of 18 whales and 20 fetuses were analyzed and compared with earplug-based age estimates. The equation for age estimation by AAR in this species was as follows: Loge{[1 + (Asp D/L)act]/[1 ? (Asp D/L)act]} = 2.30 × 10?3 × earplug age (year) + 0.0201 (p < 0.001, r 2 = 0.918). There is a strong correlation between the age estimates by AAR and earplugs. This study was successful in developing the AAR technique for the Antarctic minke whale, and the application of this technique can complement the age estimation of this species based on earplug readings, especially for young animals with unreadable earplugs. 相似文献

A 45-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary citric acid on growth, digestive enzyme and disease resistance of white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. Shrimp with initial body weight of 5.57 ± 0.21 g were fed with basal diet supplemented with 0.0 g kg?1 (control), 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 g kg?1 citric acid. Results showed that weight gain was increased by 15.9 % and feed conversion ratio was decreased by 0.17 by 2.0 g kg?1 dietary citric acid compared with control group (P < 0.05). Intestinal protease activity of shrimp fed 2.0 g kg?1 citric acid was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that of control group. No significant difference was found in intestinal amylase activity among treatments (P > 0.05). The activities of serum phenoloxidase, superoxide dismutase and lysozyme in 2.0 and 3.0 g kg?1 citric acid group were significantly higher, and accumulative mortalities of the two groups on the fourth day after injection of Vibrio alginolyticus were significantly lower than those of control group (P < 0.05). Results above demonstrated that dietary citric acid could improve growth performance, immunity and resistance against V. alginolyticus. The supplementation level of citric acid in diet was suggested to be 2.0–3.0 g kg?1 for white shrimp. 相似文献

Abstract. Duplicate static bioassays were conducted for 168 h each to determine the median lelhal concentration (LC50) of nitrite (NO?2) for common carp, Cyprinus carpio L., fry at five different chloride (Cl?) levels. The acute toxicity of nilrite ceased towards the end of 96 h at all levels of chloride concentration. There was a highly significant positive correlation between the chloride concentration tested and the 96-h LC50. The 96-h LC50 values are 2·55, 5·77, 14·41 27·26 and 48·70 mgl?1 NO?2-N at chloride concentration of 1·0. 5·0, 10·5, 27·3 and 45·0 mgl?1 Cl? respectively. The linear relationship between chloride concentration and 96-h LC50 is best described by the equation: y= 1·03x+ 1·49 (r=+ 0·996; d.f. = 3;P <0·001), where y= 96 h LC50 of NO?2-N and x= concentration of Cl?. A NO?2-N to Cl? ratio of about 1:1·5–3·0 prevented complete mortality over the 168-h experimental period. A NO?2-N to Cl? ratio of 1:5 is recommended for protection of carp fry against nilrite mortality in fish farms. 相似文献

We describe a computer-operated recirculating respirometer system (ca. 140 L water) with six respirometer chambers and a reference chamber (L × W × H: 26 cm × 12 cm × 20 cm; volume 6.24 L) that simulates diurnal dissolved oxygen (DO) fluctuations normally occur in aquaculture ponds. A gas-mixing device, “Digamat” proportionately dissolves gaseous nitrogen and oxygen (and if desired, carbon dioxide) in water to achieve DO levels from 1.0 to 40.0 kPa (0.3–14.0 mg L?1) at different temperatures. A series of computer-operated valves sequentially allow water from respirometer chambers to a single oxygen probe to measure DO concentration. Oxygen consumptions of fish as the differences in DO concentrations between respirometer and reference chamber are used to calculate different metabolic rates (standard, routine, and active), and critical (P c) and recovery (P r) oxygen tensions of individually reared unfed and fed fish. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the ability of the system to measure metabolic parameters for individually reared Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) at three temperatures (low: 22.5, optimum: 27.5 and high: 33.5 °C). The fed fish had significantly higher P c and P r values at optimum and high temperatures than unfed fish. At low and high temperatures, both fed and unfed fish had higher P c and P r than at optimum temperature. The standard metabolic rate was significantly higher at higher temperatures (44.9, 51.7, and 77.7 mg O2 kg?0.8 h?1 at 22.5, 27.5, and 33.5 °C, respectively). 相似文献

饲料中DHA/EPA值对星斑川鲽幼鱼生长、体组成及血清生理指标的影响 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:3
为研究饲料DHA/EPA值对星斑川鲽幼鱼生长、体组成和血液生理指标的影响,实验配制等氮、等能的5种不同DHA/EPA值(0.64、0.97、1.18、1.59和1.91)的饲料,每个比值设3个重复,饲养周期56 d。结果显示:(1)随着饲料DHA/EPA值的升高,星斑川鲽幼鱼增重率、饲料效率、蛋白质效率均呈先上升后下降的趋势(P0.05)。当饲料DHA/EPA值为0.97~1.59时实验鱼增重最快,饲料效率最高。蛋白质效率则在DHA/EPA值为0.97~1.18时达到最高。蛋白质沉积率(protein retention efficiency,PRE)与饲料DHA/EPA值呈显著二次回归关系(y=-1.589 5x2+2.858 3x+45.184;R2=0.910 8,x=饲料DHA/EPA值,y=PRE),当饲料DHA/EPA值大于0.90时呈下降趋势。肝体比呈先下降后小幅回升的趋势(P0.05),在饲料DHA/EPA值为1.18时达到最低,为2.85%,脾脏指数呈显著上升趋势(P0.05),于饲料DHA/EPA值为1.59组最高(0.12%);(2)肝脏粗脂肪含量随饲料DHA/EPA值的增加呈明显下降趋势(P0.05),且在饲料DHA/EPA值为1.18时降到最低,为8.60%,而后又显著上升,但仍显著低于饲料DHA/EPA值为0.64时的水平(13.44%)。二次回归分析(y=5.199 6x2-15.652x+20.866;R2=0.634 8,x=饲料DHA/EPA值,y=肝脏脂肪含量)显示,当饲料中DHA/EPA值为1.51时肝脏脂肪含量最低。脂肪酸分析结果显示,随着饲料DHA/EPA值的升高,肝脏及肌肉中EPA含量均呈线性下降趋势(P0.05),而DHA含量及DHA/EPA均呈直线上升趋势(P0.05)。肝脏和肌肉组织n-3 HUFA总量不受饲料处理的影响(P0.05);(3)血清总蛋白、球蛋白含量在饲料DHA/EPA值为1.59时显著高于其他各组(P0.05),白蛋白在饲料DHA/EPA值为0.64、0.97和1.59水平最高。溶菌酶(LSZ)活性在饲料DHA/EPA值为1.18时达到峰值(P0.05),为2.76μg/mL。谷丙转氨酶(ALT)活性在饲料DHA/EPA值1.91时无显著变化,而当饲料DHA/EPA1.18时,血清谷草转氨酶(AST)活性提高了65%左右。研究表明,在本实验条件下,以增重率为参考指标,采用二次回归(y=-31.066x2+77.26x+76.541;R2=0.957 4,x=饲料DHA/EPA值,y=增重率)分析可得,当饲料脂肪水平为8.3%,n-3 HUFA含量为0.74%时,星斑川鲽幼鱼[初始体质量(31.70±0.12)g]对DHA/EPA值的最适需要量应为1.24。 相似文献

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of probiotic bacterium Bacillus licheniformis on the gut microbiota, growth and immune response in Macrobrachium rosenbergii juveniles (4.0 ± 0.02 g). Five isocaloric experimental diets supplemented with different concentrations of B. licheniformis, viz. Control (without probiotic supplementation), T1 (1.0 × 106 cfu g?1feed), T2 (1.0 × 107 cfu g?1feed), T3 (1.0 × 108 cfu g?1 feed) and T4 (1.0 × 109 cfu g?1 feed) were used for the experiment. After 60 days of feeding trial, the growth performance increases significantly in all the experimental groups compared with control, and highest weight gain, specific growth rate and lowest feed conversion ratio were recorded from T4 (P > 0.05). However, juvenile survival was not found to be significantly affected by probiotic supplementation (P > 0.05). The total bacterial count and Bacillus spp. count in the gut were significantly increased with concurrent decrease in pathogenic Aeromonas spp. and Pseudomonas spp. in all the experimental groups compared with control (P < 0.05). Compared with control, immune parameters were increased significantly in all the experimental groups (P < 0.05). Highest haemocyte count, phenol oxidase, superoxide dismutase and antibacterial activity in haemolymph were recorded from T4 (P < 0.05). When prawns were challenged with Vibrio alginolyticus, the cumulative mortality was significantly lower in T4 (P < 0.05). These results indicate that dietary supplementation of B. licheniformis can manipulate the gut microbiota and increase the growth and immune response of M. rosenbergii. In the present study, concentration response on the probiotic effect of B. licheniformis was observed which showed higher effects at a concentration of 1.0 × 109 cfu g?1 feed in the laboratory condition. 相似文献

The anesthetic activities of the essential oils (EOs) of Hesperozygis ringens (EOHR) and Lippia alba (EOLA) and their effects in silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen) after anesthesia and recovery were investigated. Fish (32.19 ± 1.24 g) were submitted to one of the following treatments for each EO: basal group, control, or anesthesia (150, 300, or 450 μL L?1 EO). After that the anesthesia was induced or simulated and the biometric measurements were completed, fish were transferred to anesthetic-free aquaria to allow for recovery. Fish were sampled at 0, 15, 30, 60, and 240 min after recovery. At time 0 of recovery, the ventilatory rate was lower in the groups anesthetized with either EO. In comparison with the basal group, control fish showed an increase in plasma glucose, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and Na+ levels and a reduction in Na+/K+-ATPase activity at 0 min of recovery. Plasma levels of ammonia and Na+ were lower in the fish anesthetized with EOLA (450 μL L?1) and EOHR (all concentrations), respectively, than in the control fish. Additionally, lactate, AST, alanine aminotransferase, K+ plasma levels, and gill Na+/K+-ATPase and H+-ATPase activities were higher in the fish anesthetized with either EOHR or EOLA than in the control fish. The EOs promoted slight changes in silver catfish that enabled both an adaptive response and the recovery of most of the measured parameters after 240 min regardless of concentration or EO that was used. These findings support the use of EOHR and EOLA as anesthetics for fish. 相似文献

The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary lipid levels on growth, liver oxidative stress, and serum metabolites of juvenile hybrid snakehead (Channa argus × Channa maculata). Five isonitrogenous (crude protein 420 g kg?1) practical diets containing 58, 87, 115, 144, and 173 g kg?1 crude lipid (named L58, L87, L115, L144, and L173, respectively) were fed to triplicate groups of 30 fish (mean initial weight 24 g) for 8 weeks. The results showed that the final body weight (58.68–78.81 g), specific growth rate (1.41–1.75 % day?1), and protein efficiency ratio (1.66–2.64) increased significantly with the increasing dietary lipid levels. Liver lipid contents (71.65–101.80 g kg?1) and crude lipid (52.10–83.63 g kg?1) of whole body increased with increasing dietary lipid levels and reached the highest values in fish of L173. Fish of L173 showed lower alkaline phosphatase (23.81 King Unit gprot?1) and catalase activities (4.44 U mgprot?1) but higher malondialdehyde content (0.69 nmol mgprot?1) in liver than the other groups. Higher alanine transaminase activity (8.20 U L?1), aspartate transaminase activity (63.65 U L?1), and triglyceride (0.29 mmol L?1) in serum were observed in fish of L173 compared to the other treatments. Fish of L144 showed higher superoxide dismutase activity and glutathione peroxidase activities in liver than that of fish fed diet L58. Fish fed diet L58 showed lower total cholesterol (3.61 mmol L?1), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (1.39 mmol L?1), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (0.46 mmol L?1) in serum. These results suggested that juvenile snakehead (Channa argus × Channa maculata) achieved good growth performance with dietary lipid level 173 g kg?1. Diet with 143 g kg?1 lipid was more conductive to liver health. The appropriate dietary lipid supplementation needs to be determined in further studies. 相似文献

ABSTRACTLittle is known regarding the correlation between channel catfish female body weight and relative fecundity and fry production when the females are induced to ovulate with carp pituitary extract and fertilized with blue catfish sperm. A total of 145 female channel catfish were used in the early, middle, and late spawning season. Female body weight of channel catfish had negative correlations with relative fecundity (r = ?0.33 and ?0.25, P < .05; r = ?0.23, P > .05) and before the late spawning season with fry/kg (r = ?0.21, P > .05; r = ?0.30, P < .05). Eggs/kg female body weight and fry/kg female body weight followed a parallel pattern throughout the season, illustrating the logical relationship between relative fecundity and fry output. The size of females used is a consideration to maximize hybrid catfish embryo production during the early and middle spawning season but not late in the spawning season. However, these correlations are relatively small even though significant; thus a dramatic change in fry production would not be predicted. Since reproductive relationships can change during the spawning season, conclusions and recommendations could be flawed if data are not collected periodically during an entire spawning season. 相似文献

The dietary lysine requirement of sub-adult grass carp (460 ± 1.5 g) was assessed by feeding diets supplemented with grade levels of lysine (6.6, 8.5, 10.8, 12.9, 15.0 and 16.7 g kg?1 diet) for 56 days. The test diets (28 % CP) contained fish meal, casein and gelatin as sources of intact protein, supplemented with crystalline amino acids. Weight gain (WG), feed intake and feed efficiency were significantly improved with increasing levels of lysine up to 12.9 g kg?1 diet and thereafter declined (P < 0.05). Quadratic regression analysis of WG at 95 % maximum response indicated lysine requirement was 10.9 g kg?1 diet. Activities of trypsin, chymotrypsin, lipase, Na+, K+-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase in intestine, creatine kinase activity in proximal and mid-intestine responded similar to WG (P < 0.05). In addition, lipid and protein oxidation decreased with increasing levels of lysine up to certain values and increased thereafter (P < 0.05); the anti-hydroxyl radical capacity, dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activities and glutathione content were increased with increasing dietary lysine levels up to certain values in the detected tissues, except for hepatopancreatic GST. Requirement estimated on the basis of malondialdehyde content in intestine and hepatopancreas was 10.6 and 9.53 g lysine kg?1 diet, respectively. 相似文献

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of dietary vitamin C on some skin mucus immune parameters, mucus antimicrobial activity and growth performance of Caspian roach (Rutilus rutilus caspicus) fry. Six hundred sixty Caspian roach (1.4 ± 0.02 g) fry were allocated to 12 tanks (55 fish per tank), and triplicate groups were fed diets containing 0, 1,000, 1,500 and 2,000 mg kg?1 vitamin C for 60 days. At the end of the trial, the epidermal mucus protein level, alkaline phosphatase and antimicrobial activity against two gram-positive bacteria (Streptococcus faecium and Micrococcus luteus) and gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Serratia marcescens) as well as growth performance were measured. The results demonstrated that feeding on vitamin C significantly elevated skin mucus alkaline phosphatase and protein levels compared to the control group (P < 0.05). However, lysozyme activity was undetectable in both the vitamin C-fed roach fry and the control group. Skin mucus antimicrobial activity was increased following vitamin C administration, and the bacterial growth inhibition zones were significantly elevated in vitamin C-fed roach (P < 0.05). Similar results were obtained in case of the minimum inhibitory concentration of skin mucus. Also fish fed the control diet had a significantly lower weight gain, specific growth rate and condition factor compared to the other treatments (P < 0.05). These results revealed that dietary vitamin C beneficially affects the skin mucus immune parameters and growth performance of Caspian roach fry. 相似文献

This study tested the feasibility of a low-cost seaweed biofiltration system for pond-based aquaculture through an indoor-integrated fish-seaweed culture experiment using weekly nutrient supply regime and different seaweed stocking densities. The culture experiment was conducted in glass aquaria that were stocked with Gracilariopsis bailiniae at 3 densities (low = 0.5 kg m?2, middle = 2 kg m?2 and high = 3.5 kg m?2) and provided either with effluents from intensive milkfish (Chanos chanos) culture or with effluent-free seawater (control) as nutrient source. Stocking density was used as a factor in optimizing nutrient availability for growth and nutrient removal under such low water exchange conditions. Our results showed that G. bailiniae cultivated in milkfish effluents had higher growth, biomass and nitrogen yields than those cultivated in effluent-free seawater. Among the different stocking densities tested, highest growth rate (1.03 % day?1) was obtained in the middle density. Increasing biomass and nitrogen yields were also obtained at this density until the end of the culture period. Poorer growth rates at low and high stocking densities were attributed to light limitation from phytoplankton and self-shading, respectively. Due to seaweed treatment, average outflow concentration of NH4 + was reduced from half of its pretreated level. This study showed that a weekly effluent supply at 2 kg m?2 seaweed stocking density can sustainably support the growth of G. bailiniae as long as the dissolved nutrients are present at high levels. 相似文献

This study evaluated the effects of short-term exposure to sublethal levels of nitrite on oxidative stress parameters and histology of juvenile Brazilian flounder Paralichthys orbignyanus. An assessment of fish recovery was also performed. Fish were exposed to 0.08 (control), 5.72, 10.43, and 15.27 NO2-N mg L?1 for 10 days followed by the same recovery time. Gill, liver, and muscle samples were collected after 1, 5, and 10 days of exposure and after recovery for the measurement of antioxidant capacity against peroxyl radicals (ACAP), glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activity, content of non-protein (NPSH) and protein thiols (PSH), and lipid peroxidation levels by thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) content. Nitrite exposure induced alterations which compromised the overall antioxidant system (reduced ACAP and GST activity) and enhanced oxidative damage in lipids and proteins. Increases in GST activity and NPSH and PSH contents were also demonstrated. The recovery period allowed for resumption of basal levels for all (treatment 5.72 NO2-N mg L?1) or some of the evaluated parameters (other treatments). In conclusion, exposure to nitrite concentrations from 5.72 to 15.27 NO2-N mg L?1 induced oxidative stress and antioxidant responses in juvenile Brazilian flounder. The 10-day recovery period was sufficient for a complete resumption of basal physiological condition of fish exposed to concentrations of up to 5.72 NO2-N mg L?1. 相似文献

Epinephelus morio is a large carnivorous species of the Caribbean Sea under reproduction in captivity and nutritional physiology. A diet with raw cornstarch (RCS) was compared to a basal diet without starch (basal) to measure plasma glucose, liver glycogen, and intermediary metabolism. Glucose level did not change (p > 0.05) whereas liver glycogen was significantly higher in fish fed the RCS diet (137.2 ± 14.5 mg g?1) than in fish fed the basal diet (87.4 ± 14.5 mg g?1). Oral glucose administration (170 mg glucose per 100 g body weight) yielded a slight change; two peaks of plasma glucose were recorded with basal (5.6 mM L?1) 2 h after oral administration and at 12 h (6.4 mM L?1). After 24 h, with 1.7 mM L?1, fish returned to initial stage (2.4 mM L?1). RCS diet produced the highest level (6.3 mM L?1) 2 h after oral administration; lowest level observed at 24 h after oral administration (1.0 mM L?1). A significant effect was detected with the presence or absence of dietary carbohydrates (CBH) on hepatic fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and pyruvate kinase activity. Grouper used two strategies to maintain glucose homeostasis: CBH present in the diet oriented towards gluconeogenesis, whereas no dietary CBH enhanced glycolytic route to liberate glucose and increase liver glycogen. 相似文献
