FTIR study of Nickel and Mercury induced biochemical changes in the muscles tissues of Lates Calcarifer
نویسنده
چکیده
Nickel and mercury are naturally occurring, highly toxic environmental pollutant. The goal of the present study was investigate the effects of nickel and mercury exposure on the biochemical contents of the muscles tissues of fish Lates calcarifer by using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. FT-IR spectra reveal significant differences in absorbance intensities between the control. Nickel and mercury intoxicated tissues, reflecting an alteration on the major biochemical constituents, such as lipids, proteins and nucleic acids of the muscles tissues of Lates calcarifer. Further, it has been observed that mercury has highly altered the biochemical constituents than nickel. Therefore this result concluded that FT-IR spectroscopy can be a successful detection tool in toxicological research.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of different temperatures (20, 27 and 33 °C) and two feeding rates (2.5 % biomass per day and satiation) on growth performance, body composition, hematology and blood biochemistry of Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer). For this purpose, 8 fish with an average initial weight of 99.55 ± 0.24 g were randomly transported to 200 liters tanks (6 treatments w...
متن کاملEffect of cryopreservation on lipid composition and antioxidant enzyme activity of seabass (Lates calcarifer) sperm
Cryopreservation of seabass (Lates calcarifer) semen is an approach to increase the quantity and quality of seabass fry in aquaculture. However, cold shock can induce sperm injury leading to structural damage of the plasma membrane and loss of motility. Thus, the effect of cryopreservation on fatty acid composition and antioxidant enzyme activities of seabass sperm was determined. In cryopreser...

An intestinal Eimeria was previously reported as a significant pathogen of Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer) in nurseries in Vietnam. In the present study, both Eimeria and Cryptosporidium were detected by sequence analyses of fragments of the 18S rRNA gene amplified from these Vietnamese L. calcarifer tissues. Based on these analyses, the Eimeria from the Vietnamese L. calcarifer formed clades ...
