The two vital respiratory parameters namely Oxygen consumption of the whole fish and Opercular activity in Indian Major Carp was investigated during thermal-stress Thermal-adaptation. major carp Catla catla subjected to Slow temperature change from 22 ⁰c 32⁰c (heat-adaptation) (cold -adaptation) at rate 1⁰c ̷ 60 hours showed a gradual stepping-up oxygen opercular heat-adaptation stepping-down ca...

A 12-week laboratory feeding trial was performed to evaluate the efficacy of two different algae based value added feeds (one containing Spirulina platensis and Enteromorpha intestinalis and the other with Phormidium valderianum and Catenella repens) against conventional (rice bran and mustard oil cake taken in 2:1 ratio, used as control) for fingerlings of Indian major carp, Rohu (Labeo rohita...

Fermented mixtures containing fish-offal meal (FOM) and mulberry leaf meal (MLM) were used as protein supplement to partially replace fish meal (FM) in the formulation of diets for the Indian minor carp Labeo bata. The diets included a reference diet (20 % FM), three diets of fermented mixture of FOM and MLM (T2–T4) replacing 50 to 75 % of FM. Formulation of diet with 30 % FOM, 24 % MLM and 5 ...

As new pathogenic strains are emerging and threatening aquaculture development, myxosporeans (Myxozoa) are receiving much attention in recent years. Myxosporean taxonomy is traditionally based on morphology of the myxospore stage. Molecular data on Indian myxosporeans are rare. In this report, the 18S rRNA gene sequence of Myxobolus cuttacki infecting gill lamellae of minor carp Labeo bata (Ham...

Carps are the mainstay of Indian aquaculture, contributing over 90% to the total fish production, which was estimated to be 1.77 million metric tonnes in 1996. Carp culture has a great potential for waste utilization and thus for pollution abatement. Many wastes such as cow, poultry, pig, duck, goat, and sheep excreta, biogas slurry, effluents from different kinds of factories/industries have b...

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of heavy metal agents on haematological parameter. The Indian major carp Catla catla was exposed to sub lethal concentration of cadmium for various exposure periods7, 14, 21, 28, day haematological parameter on RBC, WBC, and Hg, were measured both in control and experimental fish. During various exposure period’s day. The 7, 14, 21, 28 of RBC, WBC,...

Background: The popularity of snack foods among children and younger has attracted the attention food processor for finding out new avenues earning profit. Therefore, aim this research was to develop crackers from freshwater fish, catla if found successful, become a part industry on large scale. Methods: Fresh Labeo were procured local market, available at Nagpur city, Maharashtra. mince prepar...

BACKGROUND The caspase-associated recruitment domain-containing protein (CARP) is expressed in almost all tissues. Recently, the tumor-suppressive function of CARP was discovered and attracted increasing attention. This study aimed to investigate the role of CARP in the carcinogenesis of human gastric carcinoma. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Compared with normal gastric tissue, the downregul...
