AIM To compare the mean of anteroposterior (AP) measurements of the uterus in longitudinal and oblique transverse planes, and the pulsatility index (PI) and resistive index (RI) of the uterine artery and superficial skin wound artery between patients taking Channa striatus and placebo. BACKGROUND Channa striatus, also known as haruan, is a fresh water snakehead fish consumed in many parts of ...

The thorny headed acanthocephan, Pallisentis nagapurensis infects the intestine of fresh water murrel, Channa striatus. This parasite broughts severe histopathological changes in the intestine includes mucosa and submucosa are completely disrupted, thickened lamina propria, damage of epithelial cells, mucosa folds clumped. The intestinal villi of the mucosa shrinked, infected intestine often en...

In the present study six commercially important fish Channa striatus were treated with different dose grade of 2,4-D pesticide. After a period of treatment the nutritional changes in the fish tissue was estimated biochemically. The moisture content in the Channa striatus fishes after treatment varies from 62.6% and the highest is found in non treated group. Analysis of protein showed much fluct...

Protein banding pattern of eight snakeheads – Channa species viz., Channa striatus, Channa marulius, Channa punctatus, Channa diplogramme, Channa bleheri, Channa gachua, Channa stewartii and Channa aurantimaculata collected from different regions of India were used to study the phylogenetic relationship among them. The banding pattern from muscle protein indicated a unique profile for each spec...

In an aquatic environment, there is a profound and inverse relationship between environment quality and disease status of fish. Parasites are one of the most serious limiting factors in aquaculture. Therefore, the present investigation has been undertaken to sort out the population dynamics of Pallisentis (Acanthocephala), in relation to host sex from freshwater fishes, Channa of Rohilkhand reg...

Channidae Family is a predatory fish in Central Kalimantan. This fish also possesses high albumin and complete amino acid content that useful for health, particularly in wound healing. Channidae Family includes Gabus (Channa striatus), Toman (Channa micropeltes), Kerandang (Channa pleurophthalmus), and Mihau (Channa maculata). However, the phylogenetic relationship between these snakehead fishe...

Background: Channa striatus or better known as the haruan fish is an indigenous, snakehead, striped, air breathing freshwater fish of Malaysia and has long been consumed traditionally during post-operative and post-partum period to speed recovery. Most medical properties of the haruan are contributed to its high content of essential fatty and amino acids. This was a phase I clinical trial to ex...

The genus Pallisentis has been mostly found among the freshwater fishes of Channidae family. ophiocephali is characterized with some unique characters proboscis, hooks, and spines. However, initial description a little sketchy yet not updated. present study communicates detail morphology an acanthocephalan species obtained from two host family—Channa striatus Channa punctatus—during one-year su...

A 84-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the utilization impact of dietary omega–3 HUFA as a dietary energy source by fingerlings of striped murrel, Channa striatus on the growth study and tissue composition. There were seven treatments (L3HUF, H3HUF, MUSOL, LINOL, MIXOL, SATOL and NATFO), each having two replicates, stocked with 100 fingerlings in circular plastic pools (300l capacity)...
