متن کاملStructure and arrangement of photoreceptors in the retina of big eye kilka, Clupeonella grimmi (Kessler 1877)
The big eye kilka, Clupeonella grimmi, is a marine fish living in depth of 20 to 200 meter of the Caspian Sea. Its eye and retina were processed for histological and SEM studies. Paraffin embedded retina was cut radially and tangentially in 5 ?m thickness and stained with hematoxylin and eosin method. The unstained sections were manipulated for SEM image observations. Tangential retinal sect...
متن کاملUV-B impacts on morphology and retina of Oncorhynchus mykiss larvae
The harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation on aquatic animals, due to ozone layer reduction, have been long studied in recent years. Exposure of Rainbow Trout larvae (Oncorhynchus mykiss) to Ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B) at different doses (68.75 µw/cm2 and 94.83 µw/cm2 as the minimum and maximum dose of UV-B in natural environment respectively) for 15 minutes once a day in dark condition in...
متن کاملRetinal morphology and retinomotor response in Caspian kutum (Rutilus frisii subsp. kutum)
In this study, the morphology and organization of the retina of Caspian kutum and fish response to ambient light as retinomotor reaction was investigated. The Rutilus frisii subsp. kutum is an anadromous fish and important native fish specimen of Caspian Sea. The specimens were obtained from Shahid Ansari Teleost Reproduction and Culture center (Guilan province, Iran). For light and dark adapta...

متن کاملAn investigation on the effects of the Aloe Vera extract on the thickness of the retina in male diabetic rats
Retina is a part of the central nervous system derived from the neuroectoderm and made up of 5 layers.In this study, the changes in the thickness of the retinal layers as a consequence of diabetes and effect of Aloe Vera gel extract in male rats were assessed. Thirty Sprague Dawley adult male rats (175 ± 25 g) in two age groups (4 and 8 weeks) were divided into 6 groups of 5 as control, diabeti...
