“…Jian and Wu (2004) recorded an elevated lysozyme level in common carp when fed a diet supplemented with various Chinese herbal extracts. An enhancement in the lysozyme activity was also recorded in juvenile P. olivaceus when fed a diet supplemented with E. cava (Kim and Lee, 2008) and in O. niloticus supplemented with V. album coloratum (Park and Choi, 2012), Sophora flavescens (Wu et al, 2013) and a Chinese herbal mixture composed of astragalus, angelica, hawthorn, liquorice root and honeysuckle (Tang et al, 2014).…”

“…Similar results were observed in Koi carp (Cyprinus carpio) (Bilen et al, 2014c), and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (Bilen et al, 2011) after supplementation with a tetra (Cotinus coggygria) extract. Moreover, Park and Choi (2012) reported that Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) when fed a diet supplemented with mistletoe (Viscum album coloratum) revealed an increase in the NBT activity. Kim and Lee (2008) reported that the NBT activity in juvenile olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) was increased after being fed a diet supplemented with kelp (Ecklonia cava).…”

The present study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of Chenopodium album aqueous methanolic extract supplementation on the immunological and haematological indices, digestive enzyme activity and growth performance of the common carp (Cyprinus carpio). C. album was added to a basal diet at the rate of 0 (CA0), 0.01 (CA0.01), 0.05 (CA0.05) and 0.1 g kg −1 (CA0.1), and C. carpio was fed this diet for 45 days. Respiratory burst activity was significantly increased in all experimental groups on days 15 and 30 compared to the control (P < 0.05). Lysozyme activity was significantly increased over all sampling times compared to the control except in CA0.1 (P < 0.05). Myeloperoxidase activities were significantly increased in all experimental groups compared to Please cite this paper as follows:

“…The complement system has been also designated as an indicator of fish immune competence because it is downregulated in many situations of stress [65] and can be activated by immunostimulants [57,66e68]. Several orally administrated herbs have been shown enhance ACH in fish, such as mistletoe extract, Viscum album coloratum [69], Rauvolfia tetraphylla [70], E. alba [57], Tinospora cordifolia [71], Nyctanthes arbortristis [72], triherbal leaf extract from Azadirachta indica, Ocimum sanctum and Curcuma longa [73] and Punica granatum [74]. In this study, the dietary A. vera stimulated the ACH that was depressed after transport.…”

In this study, pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) were fed with diets containing Aloe vera for 10 days prior to transport stress and infection with heat killed Aeromonas hydrophila. A. vera is popular around the world due to its medicinal properties, including immunostimulatory effects which was observed in this study. The results show that transport causes immunosuppression, an effect that was prevented by A. vera. Specifically, A. vera prevented reductions of both leukocyte respiratory burst and hemolytic activity of complement system caused by transport. Further, fish fed with A. vera also showed significantly higher leukocyte respiratory burst, serum lysozyme concentrations and activity of complement system 24 h after bacterial infection. Additionally, we observed that A. vera may modulate the innate response through activation of complement system during bacterial immune stimulation. In summary, A. vera extract enhanced innate immune parameters and consequently the ability of fish to cope with pathogens following transport stress. These findings show that A. vera has promise for use in aquaculture and add further evidence that medicinal herbs added to fish feed assist to prevent disease outbreaks.

This study evaluated the effects of basil (Ocimum basilicum) leaves extract supplement on growth, blood parameters and resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila in Cyprinus carpio fingerlings. Basil leaves were mixed thoroughly with feed at 0, 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1600 mg kg À1 of diet and were fed in triplicate group for 2 months. At the end of this period, growth performance and survival were determined. Then fish were challenged intraperitoneally with A. hydrophila and mortalities were recorded up to 10 days post challenge. Results indicated that WBC, RBC, Ht, Hb, total protein, albumin and globulin were higher (P < 0.05) in fish fed diets containing O. basilicum compared with the control. Highest specific growth rate values were observed in 400 mg kg À1 group. Feed conversion ratio was significantly lower (P < 0.05) in fingerlings fed 400 and 800 mg O. basilicum kg À1 dry diet. After 10 days post challenge, total protein, WBC, RBC and Hb were significantly higher in 400 mg kg À1 compared with other groups. These results reveal that a dietary O. basilicum leaves extract of 400 mg kg À1 fed for 60 days leads to increased growth performance and survival rate as well as improved feeding efficiency in common carp fingerlings rendering them more resistant against infection by A. hydrophila.
