An experiment was conducted at Dumurpota of Satkhira district for six months to compare the production performance prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) under all-male and mixed sex culture systems with carps (Labeo rohita Catla catla). A total experimental ghers were used two treatments in triplicates: (T1) (T2). In both treatments, prawns stocked a rate 10,000 PL/ha while C. catla L. each 650 fin...

An experiment was conducted to determine the growth performance of two Indian Major Carps Catla catla, and Cirrhinus mrigala fingerlings for period of 40 days. Nine experimental groups fed commercial pellet diet incorporated with three types of nutritional supplements (Gram positive lactobacil probiotic, Parry’s Spirulina and Vitamin C – Ascorbic acid) at different concentrations (2 %, 4 %, & 8...

Histopathological studies were conducted on carp fingerlings of Labeo rohita, Catla catla and Cirrhinus cirrhosus during October 2003 to May 2004 from fish farms of Mymensingh area. Monthly samplings were done with 10 fish from each species with the help of seine net. Skin, muscle, gill and liver were collected, processed and stained in Haematoxylin and Eosin. Histologically carp fingerlings of...

Lipases (E.C. 3.1.1.3) can be broadly defined as enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of ester bonds in substrates such as vitamin esters, phospholipids, triglycerides (TGs) and cholesteryl esters [1]. Interest in lipases has been increasing in the past few years because of the actual and potential uses of this enzyme in applications like hydrolysis of fats and oils, organic synthesis, modifica...

Five isonitrogenous diets (approximately 33% crude protein) were fed to the brood female carp, Catla catla (weighing 3.0 to 5.5 kg), for a period of 93 days in order to observe their breeding performance in earthen ponds. Diet-I (control) contained only basic ingredients like rice bran, ground-nut oil cake, roasted soybean meal, fish meal and mineral mixture; diet-II contained added vitamins; d...

Objective: The present report describes the green synthesis of Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using Argemone maxicana leaf extract by an eco-friendly approach. Also, the in-vitro cytotoxicity of prepared ZnO NPs against the cardiac cell lines of Sahul India Catla catla fish (SICH) was studied. Methods: ZnO NPs were prepared by using Argemone maxicana leaf extract as reducing and stabilizing...

Summer season with 30C is taken as control, where as rainy season with 20C is taken as cold stress and winter season with 15C is taken as cold adaptation. During summer season (control) The Acetyl Choline Esterase Increases, fats decreases and fatty acids increases. The fatty acids are utilized by the fish for its strenuous activity during summer. During Rainy, season due to cold stress the fat...

myxosporean taxonomy which is traditionally based on the morphology of the myxospore stage, is in a state of flux given new insights provided by the expanding dataset of dna sequences. to date, more than 40 species of thelohanellus from india have been described according to morphometric characteristics. nevertheless, molecular data on these histozoic myxosporean parasites of freshwater fish ar...
