Abstract
In this study, effects of propolis on immunological parameters of rainbow trout were investigated. For this purpose, propolis was intraperitoneally injected to fish 4 times at doses of 2.5, 5 and 10 mg / kg fish weight. Blood samples on 3, 9, 15 and 21 days were collected from fish of the control and experimental groups and analysed to determine oxidative radical production [nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) activity], total plasma protein and total immunoglobulin levels. At the end of the experiment, there was a statistically significant increase in oxidative radical production, total protein and immunoglobulin levels of propolis treated groups when compared to the control group.
Özet
Bu çalışmada; gökkuşağı alabalığında bazı immunolojik parametreler üzerine propolisin etkisi araştırıldı. Bu amaçla, propolis 2,5; 5 ve 10 mg/kg balık ağırlığı dozunda 4 defa balıklara intraperitoneal olarak enjekte edildi. Deneme ve kontrol grubundaki balıklardan 3., 9., 15., ve 21. günlerde kan örnekleri alındı oksidatif radikal üretimi [nitrobluetetrazolium (NBT) aktivitesi], total protein ve total immunoglobulin düzeyleri analiz edildi. Deneme sonunda, kontrol grubuna göre propolis uygulanan grupların oksidatif radikal üretimi, total protein ve immunoglobulin düzeylerinde istatistiksel olarak önemli bir artış tespit edildi.
