Abstract |
Major plantain is belonged to Plantaginaceae family and it’s used in traditionally medicine. This study was investigated the effect of different levels of major plantain extraction on hematological, biochemical and immunological in common carp. Common carp fingerlings (N=240, 18.69±2.09 g) were randomly distributed in 12 tanks (3 treatments in 3 replicates). The fingerlings were fed with 0 (as control), 0.1, 0.5 and 1% major plantain extract for 45 days. At the end of the experiment, blood samples were taken from the caudal stem of the fish using a syringe, and then, some hematological (RBC, HCT, Hb, MCV, MCH, MCHC, WBC, Lymphocyte, Monocyte, Neutrophil) factors, serum biochemical (Glucose, AST, ALT, ALP) and immunological (Total Ig, Globulin, Albumin, Total protein) parameters were evaluated. The results showed that there were no significant differences in RBC, HCT, MCV, ALP, AST, ALT, Total protein, Albumin and total Immunoglobulin concentrations and also Monocytes, lymphocytes and neutrophils between treatments fed different levels of major plantain extract and the control group (P>0.05). Hb, MCH, MCHC, globulin levels in treatment fed with 0.1% major plantain extract was remarkably higher than other groups (P<0.05). Glucose level in treatments fed with 0.1 and 1% major plantain extract were not remarkably different from each other (P>0.05). According to the results, due to a more positive effect of major plantain extract at the level of 0.1% on some hematological parameters and the immune responses in common carp, it can be suggested to use major plantain extract to promote immune system in farmed fish. |
