Effect of tunceli garlic (Allium tuncelianum) on the haematological and immunological parameters of scaly carp (Cyprinus carpio)
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RECENT TRENDS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2016, Vol 21, Issue 2
Abstract
The effects of Tunceli garlic oil on the hemato-immunological mechanisms of Scaly carp (Cyrinus carpio) were examined. After fed with 0.1%, 1.0% and 10% of Tunceli garlic(Alliumtuncelianum) oil, blood was taken from the caudal vein of anesthetized fish and hematocrit and leucocrit levels, red blood cells (RBC) and white blood cells (WBC) values, phagocytic activity and index, NBT adherent, protein and total immunoglobulin levels were determined on days 3, 7, 14 and 21. The same procedure was conducted on a control group. No differences were found in the levels of total protein and total immunoglobulin levels between the control and experimental groups (P > 0.05). However, there were considerable increases in the other immune parameters and differences were detected between the control and experimental groups, while MHC and MCHC decreased. This study demonstrated that different doses of Tunceli garlic were associated with different effects on the hemato-immunological parameters in scaly carp.
