چکیده
Effects of melatonin on the levels of antioxidant enzymes including catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), glutathione reductase (GRd), and malondialdehyde (MDA), a lipid peroxidation marker, in erythrocytes of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were investigated. The results showed that melatonin statistically activated the CAT, POD, and GRd activity (P < 0.05). Moreover, MDA levels were significantly decreased as a result of melatonin treatment (P <

Permethrin-induced oxidative damage in liver of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and its attenuation by vitamin C.
The objective of this study was to investigate the propensity of permethrin (PTN) to induce oxidative stress and changes in enzyme activities in liver of rainbow trout and its possible attenuation by vitamin C. Forty-eight fish were randomly assigned to 1 of 6 treatment groups and their livers were used for liver perfusion method: control (0 µgL(-1) permethrin and 0 mgL(-1) vitamin C), PTN-0.16...
متن کاملMagnesium content, total antioxidant status and lipid peroxidation in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum).
The present study was aimed at evaluating magnesium content, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and lipid peroxidation in selected tissues of rainbow trout during their development. For mineral and biochemical assay, samples of liver, kidney, gills and blood were taken from fish. Magnesium concentration ranged between 35.5 and 249.2 mg·kg⁻¹ wt/wt. Most magnesium was found in the gills and...
متن کاملEffect of different Alphamune levels in artificial diet on growth parameters, digestibility and enzyme activity of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum 1792)
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of Alphamune, a mixed prebiotic composed of mannan-oligosaccharide and β-glucans, on the growth performance, digestibility and enzyme activity of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss. A basal diet was formulated using common feed ingredients supplemented with Alphamune at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 g.kg-1 leading to five experimental diets. Obtained resul...
متن کاملEffect of dietary aloe vera on growth and lipid peroxidation indices in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
Aloe vera has been used worldwide in pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic industries due to the plethora of biological activities of its constituents. This study was done to evaluate the effects of dietary aloe vera on growth and lipid peroxidation in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). A total number of 480 O. mykiss (mean weight 9.50 ± 0.85 g) were randomized into four experim...
متن کاملThe Antioxidant Vitamin (A, C, E) and the Lipid Peroxidation Levels in Some Tissues of Juvenile Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, W. 1792) at Different Oxygen Levels
In this study, the malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the muscle, liver and kidney tissues and the antioxidant vitamin (A, C, E) levels in the muscle tissue of juvenile rainbow trout were investigated under different oxygen levels (3.5 mg O2/l, 4.5 mg O2/l and 7 mg O2/l) at the end of the 8 hour trial. Fish (initial weight and length, 30.19±2.2 g and 13.15±0.22 cm, respectively) were distributed i...
