Description
For choosing an anaesthetic agent for a particular purpose, the different properties has been notified such as the convenience for use, safety for the fish, humans and the environment, effectiveness, physiological disturbances and its cost. Invariably, in any studywith clove oil, it has been regarded as an effective and acceptable alternative to other anaesthetics. The aim of the present study was to investigate effects of two anaesthetic regimes, MS-222 and eugenol, on plasma biochemical parameters in Barbus sharpeyi. B. sharpeyi fingerlings (mean weight, 5 g±1; mean length, 6 cm±1) were exposed to MS-222 (100 ppm) and eugenol (40 ppm) for induction of anaesthesia. Blood samples were taken to verify the effects of these anaesthetics on plasma biochemical parameters may use as an indicator of stress at time 0 (designated for each tank at the time of exposure to anaesthetic agent), 0.5, 1, 2 and 24 h after exposure by caudal severance. Plasma biochemical parameters concentrations were not significantly affected in B. sharpeyi (p<0.05). These results were expected because the trials were conducted in short-term exposures. Ion balance appears to be altered only in long-term stressing condition. Based on the results of this study, eugenol appears to be a safe anesthetic for use in B. sharpeyi.
