“…Haematological study is an important parameter in the evaluation of toxicity in the aquatic animals. A thin epithelial membrane separates fi sh blood from the water and any signifi cant change in the water body are refl ected in the blood parameters [25]. In the present study, in the haematological study there was signifi cant decrease in the RBC counts, TLC counts, Differential counts, haemoglobin percentage, PCV percentage, neutrophils, Eosinophils and monocytes percentage after Fenvalerate exposure while after Turmeric treatment there was signifi cant decrease in their levels.…”

Indiscriminate use of insecticides has increased many folds in the recent times. Farmers for the better yield of crops, are widely utilising the pesticides. These pesticides through agricultural run offs have reached the surface water like ponds and has contaminated the fl ora and fauna of it. Fish is the animal which are extensively cultivated in these ponds. Humans are consuming these fi shes as food as they have high nutritious value. These contaminated fi sh if consumed by the human has caused various health hazards to humans. The present research work is therefore focused to know the bioremedial effect of turmeric on fenvalerate induced toxicity in fi sh Clarias batrachus.Fenvalerate EC 20% (pyrethroid) was administered directly in water contained in aquarium at the dose of 0.92 ppm and observed for 96 hours after the dose calculation through LC 50 . Thereafter, aqueous rhizome extract of Turmeric was administered orally, daily by gastric intubation method at the dose of 100 mg/Kg body weight per day for 15 days. The study reveals that after the exposure of fenvalerate, there was signifi cant damage at the haematological and biochemical levels in fi sh Clarias batrachus. But, after the administration of rhizome extract of turmeric, there was signifi cant normalisation in the haematological and biochemical levels in fi sh. This denotes that turmeric not only possesses ameliorating and rejuvenating property but also maintains the normal functioning of the body of the fi sh. Thus, it proves to be one of the best antidote against fenvalerate induced toxicity.

“…The haematological indexes are important biomarkers to assess the physiological state and welfare of fish (Bojarski & Witeska, 2020; Burgos‐Aceves et al, 2019; Faggio et al, 2014, 2015; Fazio et al, 2013). Dietary supplements can affect blood cells and their effect depends on the type of the leucocyte cell (Adel, Safari, et al, 2015).…”

The current research was conducted to examine the effect of Artemisia dracunculus (AD) extract on growth performance, haemato‐immunological, biochemical parameters, and mucosal immunity in the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). The fish were fed with a diet supplemented with 0 (control), 1%, 2% and 3% AD for 8 weeks. The findings indicated that in all groups fed AD, especially at the 2% level, the growth parameters and survival rate significantly increased compared with the control group. Blood biochemical parameters, creatinine, glucose, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and triglyceride were decreased significantly in AD‐treated groups. Total serum protein (TSP) levels, lysozyme (LYZ) and respiratory burst activities (RBA) were increased in the fish fed with AD. TSP levels, ALP and protease (PA) activities in the mucus were significantly increased following fish fed with AD. Increased in the total immunoglobulins (Ig) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were observed in the fish fed with 3% AD. Fish fed with 2% AD showed the highest levels of alternative complement (ACH50) significantly. In addition, the mucus bactericidal activity was significantly increased in some treatments fed AD diet against Lactococcus garvieae and Aeromonas hydrophila. After infection with Yersinia ruckeri, there was a reduction in the mortality rate in the AD‐fed groups compared with the control group. Thus, it can be concluded that diets supplemented with AD can significantly impact diverse physiological parameters in fish, improving their growth performance, blood biochemical parameters and immune response.

“…Analysis of blood parameters is an important tool used to assess the toxic effects of xenobiotics on fish [ 80 , 81 ]. However, most available data concerning hematological effects of antibacterials in fish regard mainly oxytetracycline [ 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 ] and very little information about other antibacterials were found ( Table 2 ).…”

Antibacterial agents are commonly present in aquatic environment at low concentrations. Terrestrial animal farms, human medicine and aquaculture are main sources of water contamination with antibacterials. Antibiotics were proved to be directly toxic to fish causing oxidative stress, general stress response, histopathological lesions, hematological, metabolic, and reproductive disorders, as well as immunosuppressive and genotoxic effects. Environmentally realistic low concentrations of antibiotics also disturb aquatic bacterial communities causing alterations in fish symbiotic microbiota and induce emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogenic bacteria by exerting selective pressure on spread of antibiotic-resistance genes.
