This fish mainly feed on phytoplankton. In present survey kidney and intestine of 120 silver carp (Hypophtalmictys molitrix) from 4 regions in Khuzestan province-Iran have been studied. Tissue samples were provided from kidney and intestine and sectioned by routine method after paraffin embedding and finally stained with hematoxilin and eosin (H & E). The microscopic results were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. Microscopical analysis showed that kidney tissue had lesions including: edema, necrosis, uroliths, hemorrhage and degeneration. In different regions, fishes showed different prevalence of lesions. Edema and urolith were the most prevalent lesions (30 and 25 percent respectively). In histometric analysis the diameter of layers of intestine in some of the fish farms were significantly higher than the other regions. This increase was because of increase in muscular layer. The intensity of all lesions was estimated as light according to distribution of lesions. The probable cause of these lesions may be the high stocking density, intoxication, water quality problem such as excessive carbon dioxide. The only lesion in intestine was the excessive proliferation of mucus cells that this lesion may be created due to the improper plankton diet.展开更多

The fishes were injected either intraperitoneally or intramuscularly with killed A. hydrophila bacterin isolated from a diseased fish. 15 days after injection the lymphocyte count was significantly higher in the kidney of intraperitoneally bacteria injected fishes than in the normal saline injected fishes (p 0.05). In the intramuscular bacteria injected fishes in comparison with the normal saline group, the lymphocyte count was significantly higher only in the blood (p 0.05). In comparison between the serum protein parameters in different groups, in intraperitoneal injection of killed-bacteria, total albumin as well as the ratio of albumin/globulin was greater than the control group (p 0.05). In intramuscular injection, the normal saline-injected group, amount of α?-globulin was significantly higher than bacteria-injected group (p 0.05).展开更多
