Immunomodulation function of Tunceli garlic (Allium tuncelianum) oil in Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

The effects of injectable Tunceli garlic oil (Allium tuncelianum) on serum response rainbow trout were examined. Influence intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection administration (TGO) was evaluated some immunological factors trout. Fish weight 40 g i.p. injected TGO at doses 1% and 10%. Serum lysozyme activity, bactericidal myeloperoxidase, protein immunoglobulin levels measured days 3, 7, 14 21 after the administration. All immune parameters assayed remained affected when administered. activity consistently achieved by immunizing fish with TGO. Levels myeloperoxidase increased in groups Myeloperoxidase activities peaked post-injection, respectively. Lysozyme significantly throughout experiment all groups. Total post-injection although no statistically significant differences. In conclusion, these results suggest that there are functionally mechanisms
