چکیده

This study assessed the effect of tissue storage duration and accuracy of the metabolic inhibitor tissue homogenate (MITH) method on intracellular pH (pHi) values of tissues of white sturgeon Acipenser transmontanus during hypercarbia. No effect of storage in liquid nitrogen of up to 30 days was observed and MITH appears appropriate for measurement of pH in fish exposed to up to 10% CO2 (10000 Pa pCO2).

Changes in metabolic enzymes levels exposed to zinc and cadmium in the snow trout (Schizothorax zarudnyi)

Nowadays, the entrance of pollutants including heavy metals in environment threatens the life of aquatic animals. In this study, the effect of zinc chloride (6 mg/l) and cadmium chloride (5 mg/l) exposure were studied on the activity of some metabolic enzymes in the liver, gills, brain and muscle in Snow trout (Schizothorax zarudnyi). The results showed that zinc caused a significant increase i...

The effect of mushroom prebiotic (Pleurotus ostreatas) on histopathological changes in liver and gill tissue of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) exposure to silver nitrate

The presence of contaminants in aquatic bodies causes stress responses in aquatic animals, especially fish, which ultimately affects the physiological condition of fish and reduces their immune function, so the use of immune stimulants such as prebiotics is essential. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different levels of pleurotus ostreatus on the histological characteristi...
