Effect Of Refrigerated Storage On Fillet Lipid Quality Of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus Mykiss W.) Fed A Diet Containing Different Levels Of Dl A-Tocopherol Acetate, Mustafa Yildiz, Erdal Şener, Hüseyi̇n Gün Jan 2006

Effect Of Refrigerated Storage On Fillet Lipid Quality Of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus Mykiss W.) Fed A Diet Containing Different Levels Of Dl A-Tocopherol Acetate, Mustafa Yildiz, Erdal Şener, Hüseyi̇n Gün

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The effect of refrigerated storage at 1 ± 0.3 ºC on vitamin E level, fatty acid composition and lipid oxidation of fillets was studied in 3 groups of rainbow trout fed diets supplemented with increasing levels (100, 300 and 500 mg kg^{-1} diet, respectively) of \alpha-tocopherol acetate as antioxidant. Fish (initial mean weight 131 ± 1.0 g) were fed experimental diets for 58 days and reached a mean final weight of 299 ± 6.1 g, with growth differences among the 3 experimental groups being insignificant (P > 0.05). Fillet samples of fish were analyzed fresh (on day 0) or after storage …


Plasma Lysozyme Levels And Secondary Stress Response In Rainbow Trout, Oncorhynchus Mykiss (Walbaum) After Exposure To Leteux-Meyer Mixture, Hi̇jran Yavuzcan Yildiz Jan 2006

Plasma Lysozyme Levels And Secondary Stress Response In Rainbow Trout, Oncorhynchus Mykiss (Walbaum) After Exposure To Leteux-Meyer Mixture, Hi̇jran Yavuzcan Yildiz

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Leteux-Meyer mixture (LMM) contains formalin and malachite green and can be externally applied to fish as an antimicrobial agent. To determine the effects of prophylactic treatment with LMM on plasma lysozyme levels and the secondary stress indices, alterations in plasma glucose, chloride, sodium, potassium and hematocrit were monitored in healthy rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss W. Fish were i) exposed to 25 ppm Leteux-Meyer mixture for 60 min and ii) the same treatment followed by 60 min recovery in clean freshwater. Treatment with LMM resulted in a decrease in plasma lysozyme values. After a recovery period of 60 min plasma lysozyme …
