“…(), who fed silver catfish, Rhamdia quelen (Quoy & Gaimard), with 0.25 to 2 ml/kg Lippia alba EO for 60 days. EO studies have increased in recent years, and recently, it is understood that supplementation with EOs only at concentrations above 1 g/kg for approximately 60 days cause changes in the haematological parameters of tilapia (Acar, Kesbiç, Yılmaz, Gültepe & Türker, ; Baba, Acar, Öntaş, Kesbiç & Yılmaz, ; Brum et al., ). Based on these recent results, it appears that there is a need for large amounts of EOs in the feed to result in an effect on the blood cells of fish.…”

The effect of the essential oils (EOs) of peppermint, Mentha piperita L., and tea tree, Melaleuca alternifolia (Maiden & Betche) Cheel, on the haematological, biochemical, and immunological parameters and intestinal morphology of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L., was evaluated. Fish (58.09 ± 5.87 g) were fed 100 mg/kg and 250 mg/kg of each EO and sampled on days 7, 14, 30 and 60 after starting supplementation. The haematological and biochemical parameters were not altered by the supplementation of EOs compared to the control (p > .05). With regard to the immunological parameters, the activation of the complement system of fish fed 250 mg/kg peppermint and 100 mg/kg and 250 mg/kg tea tree EOs were significantly higher compared to the control after 60 days of feeding (p < .05). The complement system plays an essential role in innate immunity and contributes significantly to the acquired immune response; thus, its activation through supplementation with EOs is promising for the formulation of nutritional additives in aquaculture. Regarding intestinal morphology, fish fed 250 mg/kg tea tree EO presented higher villus size compared to all other groups (p < .05), which represents a healthier gut. These fish present a larger intestinal surface, which can result in better absorption and utilization of the nutrients. Based on the responses found in this study, both EOs were considered promising for the formulation of feed additives for Nile tilapia.

“…Diets containing lemon peel and sweet orange peel EO at doses ranging from 3 to 80 g kg -1 of feed tend to increase plasma proteins and decrease cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose in Nile tilapia (Acar et al, 2015, Baba et al, 2016. However, diets containing L. alba EO (0.25 -2 mL kg -1 ) did not affect plasma variables of silver catfish (Saccol et al, 2013).…”

“…In Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, sweet orange peel EO, rich in limonene, improved weight gain and blood parameters (Acar, Kesbiç, Yılmaz, Gültepe, & Türker, 2015), while lemon peel EO, also rich in limonene, had no effect on growth performance and had little effect on blood parameters (Baba, Acar, Öntas, Kesbiç, & Y1lmaz, 2016). However, both EOs increased resistance against pathogens (Acar et al, 2015;Baba et al, 2016). In silver catfish, feed supplementation with EO from Lippia alba (linalool chemotype) leaves (0.25 -2.0 mL EO kg -1 diet) did not influence growth performance or blood parameters but increased antioxidant enzymes and reduced lipid oxidation (Saccol et al, 2013).…”

ABSTRACT. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation with Cymbopogon flexuosus essential oil (EO) on productive performance, metabolic parameters and body and fillet composition of adult silver catfish, Rhamdia quelen. Total length, condition factor, weight gain, specific growth rate, hepatosomatic index, visceral fat content and fillet composition were not affected by EO supplementation. Plasma total protein, globulin and triglycerides were reduced by EO supplementation. Supplementation with 1 mL EO kg -1 diet increased carcass yield and protein deposition in the carcass, while reducing gonadosomatic index and fat deposition in the carcass when compared to control group. In addition, 1 mL EO kg -1 diet also improved feed intake when compared to 3 mL EO kg -1 diet. Our results suggest that EO up to 1 mL kg -1 diet can be used in fish feed to improve protein deposition and carcass yield of silver catfish.Keywords: Cymbopogon flexuosus, citral, growth performance, gonads, body composition.A suplementação com óleo essencial de capim-limão microencapsulado melhora a deposição de proteína e o rendimento de carcaça de jundiás (Rhamdia quelen) RESUMO. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar o efeito da suplementação na dieta com óleo essencial de Cymbopogon flexuosus (EO) sobre o desempenho produtivo, os parâmetros metabólicos e a composição corporal e de filés de jundiás (Rhamdia quelen) adultos. O comprimento total, o fator de condição, o ganho de peso, a taxa de crescimento específico, o índice hepatossomático, o teor de gordura visceral e a composição dos filés não foram afetados pela suplementação com EO. Os níveis plasmáticos de proteína total, globulina e triglicérides foram reduzidos pela suplementação com EO. A suplementação com 1 mL de EO kg -1 de dieta aumentou o rendimento de carcaça e a deposição de proteína na carcaça, mas reduziu o índice gonadossomático e a deposição de gordura em comparação ao grupo controle. Além disso, 1 mL de EO kg -1 de dieta também melhorou o consumo de ração em comparação com 3 mL de EO kg -1 de dieta. Os resultados sugerem que se pode utilizar até 1 mL de EO kg -1 de dieta na alimentação de peixes para melhorar a deposição de proteína e a produtividade de carcaça de jundiás em fase de engorda. Palavras-chave:Cymbopogon flexuosus, citral, desempenho produtivo, gônadas, composição corporal.

“…Hematological parameters are used as a clinical indicator of health diagnosis (Dotta et al, 2011). When herbal medicines are used as an immunostimulant, the blood parameters levels generally have not been influenced without a stimulus or challenge by some invading pathogen (Dotta et al, 2014).…”

“…In recent years, many studies have been done on Propolis, with various medical effects (Orsolic & Basic, 2003;Hu, Hepburn, Li, Chen, Radloff, & Daya, 2005;Kanbur et al, 2009), but few studies have been done on the effect of propolis on fish species (Zhang, Gong, Yu, & Yuan, 2009;Abd-El-Rhman 2009;Yonar, Yonar, & Silici, 2011). The aim of this study was to compare the effects of an alcoholic and aqueous extract of propolis, a honeybee product, on growth performance, hematological parameters and immune responses of common carp (Cyprinus carpio).…”

In this study, the effects of oral administration of an alcoholic and aqueous extract of propolis on growth performance indices, hematological parameters and immune responses of Cyprinus carpio were investigated. Six hundred and thirty juvenile Cyprinus carpio (weighing 58.5 ±4.2 g, Mean±SD) were randomly divided into seven equal groups in triplicates. Three groups (G1 to G3) were fed diets containing 0.1%, 0.25% and 0.5% of Propolis-ethanolic Extract (PEE) respectively, whereas groups 4 to 6 were fed a diet containing the same level of Propolis Aqueous Extract (PAE), group seven was received free extract normal food. Growth indices and hemato-immunological parameters in treated fish were evaluated and compared among the groups. The results showed a significant increase in serum lysozyme activity, total serum protein and globulin in fish fed diets containing 0.5% PEE compared to the control group (p<0.05). But no significant differences were observed in growth-performance indices and other immunological and hematological parameters compared to the control group (P>0.05).Meanwhile, cumulative mortality after the bacterial challenge of fish fed on a diet containing 0.5% PPE significantly decreased compared to control group (p<0.05). According to the results, supplementation of food with 0.5% PEE stimulated some innate immune responses and resistance against A.hydrophila infection. Then 0.5% PEE in diet can be a good candidate for immunostimulant against bacterial infection in common carp.
