some biochemical characteristics of common carp (cyprinus carpio) and silver carp (hypophtalmichthys moltrix) surimi prepared by a conventional washing method and protein isolated using alkaline-acid-aided processes were investigated. solubility of protein in silver carp and common carp were found to be highest by using the conventional washing method. decreases in myoglobin and lipid contents ...

background: in natural waters and/or aquaculture facilities, fish are often exposed to chromium waste and demonstrate cumulative deleterious effects. to our knowledge, there are no studies concerning the effects of trivalent cr on c. carpio hematology. this study presents hematological and some biochemical parameters of common carp, cyprinus carpio, affected by sublethal concentration of trival...

background: paraquat is a non-selective contact herbicide, widely used to control weeds in agriculture farms and aquatic plants in surface waters. paraquat can have adverse effects on the health of aquatic organisms. the aim of this study was to detect the alterations in the blood biochemical parameters of common carp exposed to sub-lethal concentrations of commercial formulations of paraquat. ...

diazinon is commonly used for pest control in the agricultural fields surrounding freshwater reservoirs. this study was conducted to determine the chronic toxicity of organophosphorous pesticide and its effects on some hematological parameters and biochemical blood plasma profiles of common carp, cyprinus carpio. diazinon was applied at concentrations of 60 and 120î¼g/l preparations in 10, 20 a...

chlorpyrifos, an organophosphate pesticide, is widely used to control pests in agriculture farms and orchards of fruit trees. in this study, the fish were exposed to sub-lethal concentrations of chlorpyrifos which were determined based on numerical value of 96 h lc 50 . blood was sampled after 10, 20 and 30 days and biochemical parameters including glucose, total protein, albumin, globulin, tri...

objective: this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different proportions of marshmallow extract (althaea officinalis l.) on growth performance and carcass composition of common carp (cyprinus carpio). methods: common carp with an average weight of 37.65 ± 4.40 g were fed for two months with a diet supplemented with marshmallow (a. officinalis) extract 0.25%, 0.50 and 1%, and with no...

BACKGROUND Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been used as genetic marker for genome-wide association studies in many species. Gene-associated SNPs could offer sufficient coverage in trait related research and further more could themselves be causative SNPs for traits. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) is one of the most important aquaculture species in the world accounting for nearly 14% ...

Koi herpesvirus (KHV) infection is associated with high mortalities in both common carp (Cyprinus carpio carpio) and koi carp (Cyprinus carpio koi) worldwide. Although acute infection has been reported in both domestic and wild common carp, the status of KHV latent infection is largely unknown in wild common carp. To investigate whether KHV latency is present in wild common carp, the distributi...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different proportions of lemon bee brush essential oil on growth performance, carcass composition, and hematology and biochemical parameters of common carp (cyprinus carpio). common carp with an average weight of 8 ± 0.2 g were fed for one month with a diet supplemented with lemon beebrush essential oil (0.15 and 0.3 ml) and with normal diet a...

kruppel-like factors (klfs) are a highly related zinc-finger family of transcription factors implicated inthe regulation of the eukaryotic cellular growth and differentiation of a diverse set of cells in mammal. usingrt-pcr technique, a 456 bp cdna fragment encoding n-terminus part of a klf2b was isolated from the skinmucosa of common carp (cyprinus carpio) using two degenerative oligonucleotid...
