A feeding trial spanning two months was conducted to evaluate the effects of sp on growth performance, water quality, survival, proximate composition and biochemical profile of common carp () where fishmeal was partially replaced using sp in the diet. Twenty uniform-sized common carp fries were distributed into triplicate groups and placed in 40-liter rectangular glass tanks. sp. was added at different levels in the diet: 0 % (control), 5 % (C5), 10 % (C10), 15 % (C15) along with the commercial feed (CMF). After the experiment, random sampling of fish was performed to conduct all the analyses. Significant variations ( < 0.05) were found in the chemical water quality parameters. The highest survival rate was recorded from C15 (81.67 %) followed by C10 (71.67 %), CMF (63.33 %) and C5 (58.33 %) respectively compared with the control (43.2 %). There were significant differences ( < 0.05) observed among all the treatments in terms of Average Daily Gains (ADG), Specific Growth Rate (SGR) and length increments. Protein content ranged the highest and the lowest in C15 (35.6 %) and control (24.8 %) respectively. The C15 group showed the highest lipid content (15.7 %) and the control group showed the lowest lipid (8.4 %). The inclusion of sp in the diet had a significant positive impact on the fatty acid and amino acid profile of whole common carp. Present data revealed that substituting a portion of fishmeal with sp. powder could provide higher growth performance, offering both nutritional benefits and higher survival rate in common carp ().

Effects of (L.) fruit extract on the profile of hematology of ranchu goldfish ().

Open Vet J

November 2024

Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta, Indonesia.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the effects of calabash fruit extract (BFE) on the growth and blood health of ranchu goldfish, showing that higher concentrations of BFE improve these aspects.
  • Group P6, which received the highest BFE concentration, demonstrated the best growth performance and increased levels of specific immune cells (CD4+).
  • The findings suggest that BFE could serve as an effective immunostimulant in fish diets, impacting both performance and hematological profiles positively.

Article Synopsis
  • Pollution from heavy metals like arsenic, lead, and mercury poses significant risks to aquatic life, humans, and the ecosystem, leading to health concerns after consuming contaminated fish.
  • The study focused on assessing the levels of these metals in common carp from Baqubah, Iraq, to understand their impact on human health and aquaculture practices.
  • Results indicated that while arsenic and lead levels were within safe limits set by WHO, mercury levels exceeded those limits, and histopathological damage in fish organs highlighted the adverse effects of metal exposure.

Article Synopsis
  • The Qingtian paddy field carp has been domesticated for over 1200 years and has adapted to shallow-water conditions in paddy fields.
  • Research involved transcriptome sequencing of the carp's hepatopancreas at different temperatures, revealing 3154 differentially expressed genes linked to various metabolic pathways.
  • The study highlights the role of protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum and the HIF-1 signaling pathway in helping PF-carp maintain cell stability under high temperature and hypoxic conditions.
