Histological characterization of different organs in Acipenser ruthenus juvenile

Abstract

This study aims to highlight new information on histology of sturgeons in general and of sterlet in particular. Some organs, such as: the esophagus, the stomach, the anterior intestine, the posterior intestine, pyloric caeca, the liver, the pancreas, gonads and the gills were observed under the microscope. Samples from 11 months old sterlets were taken from different individuals that were in full growth in a recirculated aquaculture system. Cultured in these conditions, it appears that the sterlet is developing harmonious. The proofs are the large spaces between the muscular fibers, both smooth and ribbed.
