چکیده مقاله:

In this study, the effect of dietary safflower extract supplementation was investigated on common carp survival and physiological response to salinity stress. To this, the fingerling fish with average weight of 9.51 ± 0/13 g were fed with diets containing 0, 0.5, 1.5 and 3 % safflower extract for 70 days. After this period, some fish were randomly exposed to water salinity of 20 g/l and their mortality was recorded for 10 h. Also, the remaining fish were exposed to water salinity of 14 g/l and their serum biochemical parameters were monitored for 72 h. Results showed that safflower extract had no significant effect on fish growth. After exposure to 20 g/l salinity, mortality in the control fish reached 100 %, but mortality of 0.5-3% safflower extract groups was 35-50%. After exposure to 14 g/l salinity, serum cortisol and glucose increased and the increment was higher in the control treatment. Also, salinity exposure increased serum sodium and chloride in all of studied groups but there was no significant difference among the treatments. After salinity challenge, serum chloride increased in the control treatment, but in chloride levels of safflower extract no change were recorded. Overall, the results of this study showed that addition of 0.5 - 3 % safflower extract to common carp diet increased resistance to salinity challenge and mitigated stress.

Common Carp, Cyprinus carpio

The common carp (Cyprinus carpio) belongs to the family Cyprinidae. In nature, carp live in the middle or lower reaches of a river with slow currents, or in marshes. Their habitats are usually weedy areas with a muddy bottom. Carp fry feed on zooplankton such as rotifers and copepods, but as they grow up they become benthic feeders, feeding on animals and other organic material. The cyprinids h...

Effect of dietary supplementation of Artemisia annua extract on some hematological and serum biochemical parameters of common carp (Cyprinus carpio)

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary Artemisia annua extract on the hematological and blood serum indexes of common carp (Cyprinus carpio). Fish with average initial weight (90.32± 1.12) were fed diets supplemented with graded levels 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 % of extract (T1, T2, T3 and T4) for 60 days. At the end of this period, The results showed that growth rate increa...
