Fish oil affects oxidative stress parameters and changes in phospholipids fatty acids profiles in plasma, erythrocytes and tissues. We examined the effects of fish oil supplementation in young and old male Wistar rats (3 and 22 months old) on plasma phospholipids fatty acids profiles and blood oxidative stress parameters. Twenty young and twenty aged Wistar rats were randomly divided into four ...

β-Conglycinin has been identified as one of the major feed allergens. However, studies of β-conglycinin on fish are scarce. This study investigated the effects of β-conglycinin on the growth, digestive and absorptive ability, inflammatory response, oxidative status and gene expression of juvenile Jian carp (Cyprinus carpio var. Jian) in vivo and their enterocytes in vitro. The results indicated...

This study was conducted to examine the effects of dietary valine on the physical and flavor characteristics, fatty acid (FA) profile, antioxidant status and Nrf2-dependent antioxidant enzyme gene expression in the muscle of young grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) fed increasing levels of valine (4.3, 8.0, 10.6, 13.1, 16.9 and 19.1 g/kg) for 8 weeks. Compared with the control group, the grou...

Aeromonas hydrophila was obtained from various sources and identified on the basis of growth on selective media, phenotypic and biochemical characters. The isolates (Ah1-Ah9) were subjected to antibiotic susceptibility and resistance pattern tests. The isolates showing maximum resistance to most of the commercial antibiotic discs used were selected. The selected isolate (Ah7) was further subjec...

This study investigated effect of repeated exposure to low doses of diuron in gilthead sea bream by measuring the activities of the following antioxidant enzymes: Superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione transferase (GST), and DT-diaphorase (DTD). Examination of the lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde contentMDA) and gluco...

A large (25 m2), remote-release buoyant pop net, 1989), and to do this, a buoyant pop net was designed floorless to permit normal behaviour by benthic fish, and a with the aim of making a more complete cat&. The beach seine net were comparing the catch seine net is also unwieldy when fish need to be collected the 2 net types. Both nets were made of 1 mm mesh, aimed at catchina fish from 10 to 1...

Abstract The present study was performed to investigate the effects of dietary yeast β-1,3/1,6-D-glucans supplemented over a 14-day feeding period on liver and cardiac function oxidative mechanism underlying these effects. We assessed relevant lipid peroxidation protein oxidation biomarkers, antioxidant defense indices [superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR), per...

Liquid crystals (LCs) are organic molecules which are typically elongated and have a non-uniform distribution of the electrical charges in the molecule, resulting in a dipole. LCs are widely used in displays of computers and other electronic devices. The rapid obsolescence rate of electronics results in large amounts of liquid crystal display (LCDs) entering the environment. Merck Company (Germ...
