“…In particular, fennel and vitamin c (Dietary supplemented antioxidants) have beneficial health effects that studied and established by the scientific community. However, there is little information about their protective roles against noxious effects caused by exposure to heavy metals, including those related to hepatic damage as well as other physiological status disturbances as previously reported [3] [5] [35]. The ameliorative effect of the studied antioxidants against heavy metals toxicity was very obvious in our study.…”

Irrigation of fish farms with agricultural drainage water may affect cultured fish species. So, the present study utilizes antioxidants supplemented diet to overcome deterioration of drainage water and its negative effect on fish. The studied groups are fish cultured in dechlorinated tap water as control group or drainage water and fed commercial basal diet. While, the other studied groups represented by Oreochromis niloticus fish cultured in drainage water and fed either commercial diet supplemented with vitamin C (5 g/kg diet) or fennel (5 g/kg diet) for 12 weeks. Results of the water physico-chemical parameters of all studied treatments revealed deterioration of the drainage water with a decrease in dissolved oxygen and an increase in pH, total hardness, total alkalinity, salinity, ammonia, nitrite and heavy metals (Cu, Pb and Cd) with significant differences (P ≤ 0.01) in comparison to that of the control dechlorinated tap water group. Data clarified also that Oreochromis niloticus cultured in drainage water showed a decrease in growth rate accompanied by deterioration of fish meat quality. However, fish reared in the same drainage water for the same exposure period and fed vitamin C or fennel supplemented basal diet (5 g/kg diet) recorded values of the studied parameters more or less similar to that of control group fish. Data of the present study, empowered aquaculturist to supplement fish rations with fennel or vitamin C as antioxidants to improve fish growth rate, meat quality as well as protect fish against heavy metals toxicity that could threat Human Being.

“…Regarding blood parameters of Clarias gariepinus exposed to tenth half lethal concentration of copper and fed ration with or without curcumin are declared in Table 3. The present result revealed high significant decrease in RBCs, Hb and Ht values of fish exposed to tenth half lethal concentration of copper (0.35 mg/l), for 12 weeks in comparison to those of control group fish raised in dechlorinated tap water and fed commercial fish ration or supplemented with curcumin (5g/kg), may be attributed to reduction in red blood corpuscles production in the hematopoietic organs under the action of high water copper concentrations (Zaghloul et al, 2005(Zaghloul et al, , 2006(Zaghloul et al, and 2016 or may be oxidative damage of RBCs. Meanwhile, the present results revealed non-significant changes in the calculated blood derivatives, the mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC) of fish, among the different studied treatments.…”

A total of seventy-two healthy Nile catfish; Clarias gariepinus were distributed into four distinct groups. These groups were fed either a commercial basal diet or a diet enriched with 500 mg curcumin/kg ration for 12 weeks. Among these groups, two groups were exposed to a sublethal concentration of copper (0.35 mg/l) and were fed a normal diet or a curcumin-enriched diet as an antioxidant. The other two control groups were comprised of fish raised in dechlorinated tap water and were fed either the commercial basal diet or the curcumin-supplemented diet for the same 12week experimental period. The study's findings revealed that Clarias gariepinus, when subjected to a sublethal copper concentration (0.35 mg/l), accumulated a greater amount of copper in their vital organs (gills, liver, and muscles) after 12 weeks. This accumulation coincided with a decrease in fish's rate of growth and quality of meat (indicated by higher muscle water content and ash but lower muscle total protein and lipids), a reduction in RBCs count, Hb content, and Ht values, and an increase in WBCs count, serum glucose, creatinine, uric acid, total protein, albumin, globulin levels, A/G ratio, and AST, ALT and ALP activities when compared to the control group of fish with a highly significant difference (P < 0.01). However, fish that were exposed to copper toxicity and fed curcumin supplemented diet (500 mg/kg diet) exhibited values that were more or less similar to those of the control group of fish that were reared in dechlorinated tap water and fed a commercial basal diet or curcumin supplemented basal diet (500mg/kg diet).
