Serum biochemical parameters of farmed carp (Cyprinus carpio).
Journal Title: Aquaculture, Aquarium, Conservation & Legislation - International Journal of the Bioflux Society - Year 2011, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Despite advances in ichthyo-pathology of recent years, interpretation of fish serum biochemical parameters is often difficult by lack of reference values. That is why to know the value of the serum biochemical parameters can be a useful tool for monitoring health status, detecting illnesses and responses to therapy. This paper provides data concerning biochemical composition of carp serum (Cyprinus carpio) bred at Brateş Farm of Institute of Research and Development for Aquatic Ecology, Fishing and Aquaculture from Galaţi and Pleaşa Farm from Ploieşti, Romania. In research conducted on Cyprinus carpio were determined following serum biochemical parameters: glucose (GLU), total proteins (TP), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), cholesterol (CHOL), triglyceride (TRIG), sodium (Na), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), iron (Fe).
