A study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary citric acid (CA) (0, 1, 2 and 3%) on the Calcium(Ca) and Phosphorus(P) content of muscle, scute and serum of Beluga (Huso huso) juveniles (25.1±1.9 g). After 8 weeks feeding on the experimental diets, Calcium(Ca) and Phosphorus(P) content of muscle, scute and serum were measured. The results revealed that addition with 2% and 3% CA sig...

Sturgeons are ancient and commercial fishes which posses’ primitive characteristics and due to their great inflections are able to live in both freshwater and marine environments. So their kidney has great ability for adaptation process. In order to find the structure and distribution of kidney nephrons in juvenile Huso huso and Acipensr persicus, sampling of head, body and caudal parts of kidn...

Sturgeon aquaculture is an emerging worldwide industry both for human consumption as well conservation. Several transmissible diseases limit this including mycosis by dematiaceous fungi such Veronaea botryosa . This study reports the first diagnosis of phaeohyphomycosis in a beluga sturgeon ( Huso huso ) Italy.

Palíková M., J. Mare‰ , J. J i rásek : Characteristics of Leukocytes and Thrombocytes of Selected Sturgeon Species from Intensive Breeding. Acta Vet. Brno, 1999, 68: 259–264. Analysis of leukocyte and thrombocyte characteristics in Acipenser baerii, Acipenser stellatus and Huso huso sturgeons at the age of about 200 days kept under intensive breeding conditions is presented. The differential le...

In this study the cranial nerves development of H. huso are explained from 1 to 54-days-old (1, 3, 6, 15, 21 and 54 days). Despite all the researches on fish brain, there are no study on nerves evolution on H. huso during their larvae life. For this research 40 samples of larvae H. huso were obtained (from each age, about six samples were selected). The specimens were maintained in fiberglass t...
