Abstract:

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the supplementary diet of Aqua Fix on the biochemical changes in muscles and disease resistance against A. hydrophila infection in L. rohita. Three groups (A, B, C) of 6 months old fish were employed in the present study. Fish of group A and B were treated with Aqua Fix for four days; on day 5 fish of group B and C (fish of group c were fed with normal diet for 4 days) were infected with A. hydrophila (@ 10-6 CFU/fish). Another group (D) of fish (untreated and uninfected) served as controls for comparison.

Keywords:

Aeromonas hydrophila, Labeo rohita, muscle, Aqua Fix, Protein.
