Alterations of growth performance, hematological parameters, and plasma constituents in the sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria depending on ammonia concentrations
نویسندگان
چکیده
Juvenile Anoplopoma fimbria (mean length 16.8 ± 2.2 cm, and mean weight 72.8 ± 5.4 g) were exposed for 2 months with different levels of ammonia (0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, and 1.25 mg/L). Growth performances such as daily length gain, daily weight gain, condition factor, and hepatosomatic index were significantly decreased by ammonia exposure. Hematological parameters such as red blood cell (RBC) count, hematocrit, and hemoglobin were also significantly decreased. In plasma inorganic components, calcium and magnesium were significantly decreased by ammonia exposure. In plasma organic components, there was no alteration in cholesterol and total protein. In enzyme plasma components, glutamic oxalate transaminase (GOT) and glutamic pyruvate transaminase (GPT) were significantly increased. The results of this study indicated that ammonia exposure can induce significant growth reduction and blood biochemistry alterations of A. fimbria.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of different alkalinity levels on growth performance, carcass analysis and blood parameters of kutum fingerlings. The examined fish samples were reared in five levels of alkalinity including a Hall water (control) with an alkalinity of 250 mg/l, 50% distilled water+50% Hall water (110 mg/l alkalinity), Hall water + 10 g sodium bicarbonate (soda, 350 m...
متن کاملUse it or lose it? Sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, a species representing a fifth teleostean group where the betaNHE associated with the red blood cell adrenergic stress response has been secondarily lost.
Like most teleosts, sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria Pallas 1814) blood exhibits a moderate Root effect (~35% maximal desaturation), where a reduction in blood pH dramatically reduces O(2) carrying capacity, a mechanism important for oxygenating the eye and filling the swim bladder (SB) in teleosts. Although sablefish lack a SB, we observed a well-defined choroid rete at the eye. The adrenergicall...
