Modulation of systemic antioxidant and immune responses in red abalone (Haliotis rufescens) during the recovery phase of anesthesia, in preparation for grafting surgery.

The use of anesthetic agents as pre-operatory treatment to pearl seeding surgery can be stressful to organisms and activate various physiological response mechanisms. This study evaluated some parameters of the systemic antioxidant and immune responses in red abalone (Haliotis rufescens) exposed to 0.25 mL L eugenol (EUB), 3.
