Fresh-water Fish Chemoreceptors Responsive to Dilute Solutions of Electrolytes

I N T R O D U C T I O N The palatal chemoreceptors of the carp display a rather peculiar type of response to varying concentrations of electrolytes (Konishi and Niwa, 1964). Dilute solutions of salts, especially those with polyvalent anions such as Na3citrate and Na 2 HP04 , produced strong responses. However, an increase in concentration depressed receptor activity, although the activity incre...

Toxicity of Nickel to Fresh Water Fish, Channa

Heavy metals are considered as the most important pollutants of the aquatic environment. In the present study, acute toxicity test was used for the determination of lethal toxicity of Nickel in adult fish, Channa gachua as the test organism. Toxicity test is most reliable for accessing the adverse effect of pollutants on aquatic life. The LC50 values were determined and observed that the values...

Parasitic adaptation of fresh water fish, Channa Striatus

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...

Characterization of Virulence Potential of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolated from Bovine Meat, Fresh Fish, and Smoked Fish

Pseudomonas aeruginosa owns a variability of virulence factors. These factors can increase bacterial pathogenicity and infection severity. Despite the importance of knowledge about them, these factors are not more characterized at level of strains derived from local food products. This study aimed to characterize the virulence potential of P. aeruginosa isolated from various animal products. Se...
