Hormones, antibiotics, vitamins and several other chemicals have been tested in aquaculture operations for various remedies. Even though they give positive effects, they cannot be recommended due to their residual and other side effects. The alternative herbal bio-medicinal products in the aquacultural operations, that have the characteristics of growth promoting ability and tonic to improve the immune system, act as appetite stimulators. They increase consumption, induce maturation, and have antimicrobial capability and also antistress characteristics that will be of immense use in the culture of shrimps and other fin fishes without any environmental and hazardous problems. Herbal compounds such as phenolics, polyphenols, alkaloids, quinones, terpenoids, lectines and polypeptides have been shown to be very effective alternatives to antibiotics and other synthetic compounds. The present paper is presented after a careful review of more than 50 herbal plants for their biological effects such as growth promotion, immunostimulation, antistress, antibacterial, antifungal, antivirals, appetite stimulators and aphrodisiac.

In this study, changes in some non-specific immune defense mechanisms of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) following exposure to aqueous extracts of Nigella sativa seeds were investigated. A total of 900 fish (mean weight 102.3g) were used in the study. Fish were treated with black seed oil using one of three different application techniques. The first method involved feeding the fish with 0.1%, 1.0% and 10% dilution of black seed oil over a 21d period. In the second method, 0.1%, 1.0% and 10% dilution of black seed oil was injected to the fish. In the third method, 0.1%, 1.0% and 10% dilution of black seed oil were applied directly onto the lateral line of fish ('smearing') over a 3d period. Blood samples of fish were taken at 3, 7, 14 and 21d post-exposure and hematocrit, leucocrit, erythrocyte, leucocyte, nitroblue tetrazolium activity, protein level and total immunoglobulin levels were determined. The highest levels of hematocrit, erythrocyte, leucocyte and nitroblue tetrazolium activity occurred in fish exposed using the smearing method. Differences in leucocrit levels of groups exposed to the three methods were not significant. The highest levels of total protein occurred in fish exposed via feeding. The highest levels of total immunoglobulin occurred in fish exposed via injection and decreased suddenly. Nonetheless, the smearing method caused regular increase and decrease. It was observed that black seed oil caused increase of fish protein content, even at the lowest dose in fish exposed via feeding. In this study, the effects of smearing method were investigated on immune system of rainbow trout, as well as, determined differences of feeding and injection methods on immune response than smearing method.Keywords: Black seed oil, Rainbow trout, Nigella sativa, Oncorhynchus mykiss, Non-specific immune parameters, Immune system of fish.FÜBAP 1501 nolu proje desteği ile yapılan doktora tezinden özetlenmiştir.

Araştırmada ortalama ağırlığı 102.30 g (84.2-121.1 g) olan 900 adet gökkuşağı alabalığı (Oncorhynchus mykiss) kullanıldı. Çalışmada çörekotu yağı alabalıklara 3 farklı yöntemle verildi. 1. yöntemde çörekotu yağı %0.1, %1.0 ve %10 oranlarında yeme ml. olarak ilave edilerek 21 gün süreyle alabalıklara verildi. 2. yöntemde çörekotu yağı %0.1, %1.0 ve %10 oranlarında balık dozları enjeksiyonla alabalıklara uygulandı. 3. yöntemde çörekotu yağının % %0.1, %1.0 ve %10 dozları 3 gün boyunca alabalıkların yanal çizgisine sürülerek uygulandı.

Cyprinus carpio L. is one of the most important freshwater fish and has been intensively cultivated. However, microbial infection become restricting component that can cause economic loss in carp production and the use of commercial antibiotics for therapy produces adverse side effects. This study was conducted to evaluate the potential of Ocimum sanctum L. crude extract on haematology of Cyprinus carpio against A. hydrophila infection. For this purpose, fish that have been infected were immersed in different doses of Ocimum sanctum L. crude extract (50, 150, 250, 350 ppm) and compared with the control group. After 1 week of immersion, total erythrocytes, total leukocytes, and deferential leukocytes (neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes) were recorded. The result showed that significant increase of total erythrocytes was obtained at the concentration of 350 ppm Ocimum sanctum L. crude extract. Furthermore, decreasing of the total leukocytes about 55.06×103 to 25.77×103, also decreasing deferential leukocytes (monocytes 40%, neutrophils 31% and lymphocytes 49% from the positive control). These results suggested that 350 ppm of Ocimum sanctum L. crude extract is beneficial to enhance the haematological status of common carp against A. hydrophila.
