High dietary protein combats the stress of Labeo rohita fingerlings exposed to heat shock

Abstract: The amelioration effect of high dietary protein against stress was evaluated in Labeo rohita fingerlings, exposed to heat shock. Two hundred and forty fingerlings (6.57 ± 0.04 g, average weight ± SE) were randomly distributed into 4 treatment groups, each with 4 replicates was fed with either of four diets containing different levels of protein (20, 30, 40 or 45%). Water temperatures of all the treatments were within the range of 25.5-26.5°C throughout the experimental period of 30 days. After 30 days of feedi… Show more

“…The small size of the fish used in this study may have reduced their ability to tolerate rapid temperature change. Diet can also alter sensitivity to thermal fluctuations (Kumar et al 2011), and the high feeding rates exhibited by the fish in our study may have enhanced their thermal tolerance. Populations of the same species may also differ in their sensitivity to thermal stress, in part through their ability to tolerate anoxia (Pörtner and Farrell 2008;Fangue et al 2009).…”

“…Enzyme analysis [Hexokinase (HK), glucokinase (GK), pyruvate kinase (PK), glucose 6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, glucose 6‐phosphatase, fructose 1,6‐bisphosphatase, alanine aminotransferase (ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase (AST)] was carried out as mentioned previously in Kumar et al . ().…”

“…The main reason behind this could be increase in total carbohydrate inclusion with the increase in diet CP to maintain isocaloric nature of the diets, and higher glucose concentration and cortisol level in the low‐protein fed group are a result of stress due to high dietary carbohydrate (Kumar et al . ). In different mixed feeding schedule groups, increase in dietary protein level increased the blood glucose and serum cortisol level, suggesting that high level of dietary protein also induces stress to fish.…”
