The aim of this study was to determine the level of anesthesia attained in Carassius auratus using a propofol bath administration and using values of haematological profile of blood and examinations, to assess the effects of the fish exposure to that anaesthetic. Acute toxicity values of propofol for gold fish were found 96 h LC50 6.353 mg/L, 96 h LC1 2.966 mg/L and 96 h LC99 13.609 mg/L. Time ...

BACKGROUND The search for more eco-friendly acaricides has prompted testing of medicinal plants from botanical sources. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the eradication of house dust mites (HDM), Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, by direct contact using the essential clove oil (Eugenia caryophyllus). METHODS A pilot study was initiated to determine the killing power of clove oil. Synthetic fibers were i...

Anesthesia is considered to be the best way to ensure animal welfare during handling etc. Clove oil and electronarcosis are among the most popular chemical and physical anesthetics used in fisheries and biology; however there is a little information available on the effect of anesthesia using direct electric current in fish. In the present study, the impacts of clove oil (30 mg.l-1) and electro...

To evaluate the effects of anesthesia with different concentrations of clove extract (0, 50, 200, 400 and 600 mg) on sperm function and some hematological parameters in Prussian carp, Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782), 30 mature male were examined. In this purpose, sperm motility traits and some hematological parameters ( Red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin concentration (Hb), hematocrit (PCV)...

Good for you for thinking carefully about the potential similarities between clove cigarettes and regular cigarettes, as many people may think they are quite different.

The production of compounds via enzymatic esterification has great scientific and technological interest due to the several inconveniences related to acid catalysis, mainly by these systems do not fit to the concept of "green chemistry". Besides, natural products as clove oil present compounds with excellent biological potential. Bioactives compounds are often toxic at high doses. The evaluatio...

DPPH (1, 1-Diphenyl-2-Picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity was performed to find out the antioxidant activity (AA) of all the antioxidants used at a concentration of 5, 10, and 15 μl/ml. Effect of spice oleoresins (clove, black pepper, and ginger) (200 ppm) and TBHQ (200 ppm) were incorporated in stabilizing refined, bleached, and deodorized (RBD) sunflower oil heating at frying temperat...
