Blood Creatinine and some Enzyme Levels in Four Species of Indian Carp Fishes Collected from a Local Aquatic Body

Abstract

Abstract. The blood creatinine, some blood enzymes, glutamic oxaloacetic tranaminase (SGOT) and serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) have been determined in four locally available Indian carp fishes such as Labeo rohita, Catla catla, Cirrhanus mrigala and Labeo fimbriatus to assess the kidney functioning in these fishes in relation to the aquatic body and their successful survival. The results indicate that the blood creatinine level is low with more or less uniform values in all the four species of fish. The higher values were observed for the two blood enzymes (SGPT and SGOT) in all the four types of fishes compared to the fish Notopterus notopterus from our earlier studies and also reported in other fishes. Thus indicating normal functioning of kidneys and other organs in all the four types of fishes studied which are healthy and are probably not stressed.

The effect of water level in vertical aquaculture systems on production performance, biochemistry, hematology, and histology of Anguilla bicolor bicolor

“…The SGPT value in this study was 1 IU/L; it is lower than that before the treatments. Besides, this value is much lower than the values of other species, such as A. marmorata with 4.53–8.27 IU/L 59 , Esox Lucius with 4.9–11.2 IU/L, Salmo solar with 6 IU/L, Salmo trutta with 1.19–41.99 IU/L, and Timalus timalus with 0.59–71.98 IU/L 60 . The SGPT values are influenced by fish species 61 .…”

“…In A. marmoratta , with different density, the SGOT values ranged from 114 to 183 IU/L 59 . Meanwhile, the values of other species include Esox lucius with 252–583 IU/L, Thymallus thymallus with 59.98–119.97 IU/L, Salmo trutta with 71.98–719.85 IU/L, and Salmo salar with 278 IU/L 60 , Gymnothorax vicinus with 108 IU/L 62 , Oreochromis niloticus with 139–204 IU/L 64 . The highest ALP value was found in treatment C with a value of 288.89 IU/L.…”

Indexing serum biochemical attributes ofLutjanus argentimaculatus(Forsskal, 1775) to instrument in health assessment

“…In short, our findings pointed out that interpretation of serum protein, albumin, globulin levels and A/G ratio in marine teleost based on terrestrial animals cannot be carried out for assessing the health status, considering their unique environment and physiology. (Kulkarni & Pruthviraj, 2016), serum SGPT was found to be higher. The possible reason for higher average SGPT could not be depicted, as there is no specific information on the source of these enzymes into fish blood (Knowles et al, 2006).…”

“…The possible reason for higher average SGPT could not be depicted, as there is no specific information on the source of these enzymes into fish blood (Knowles et al, 2006). At the same time, the observation might be a normal physiological value for this species, as normal ranges of these enzymes are reported to be species-specific (Kulkarni & Pruthviraj, 2016) are not used in fish biochemistry, and the number of studies in which reference intervals have been determined for fish species is limited (Hrubec, Cardinale, & Smith, 2000.). In this view, species-specific reference intervals were established for all the nine serum biochemical attributes, which fetch applications in health and welfare assessments of L. argentimaculatus.…”

Bisphenol A Induces Histopathological, Hematobiochemical Alterations, Oxidative Stress, and Genotoxicity in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.)

“…It may also increase the lymphocyte production at high concentrations of 500-1,000 mg/L which may ultimately inhibit macrophage production in goldfish [31]. Liver and kidneys of fish can also be damaged with the increase of creatinine level when they were subjected to the continuous exposure of BPA [32,33]. Moreover, BPA contaminated fish have also been served as the bioindicators of aquatic environments [34].…”
