Abstract

This experiment was aimed at assessing healing processes in juvenile Clarias gariepinus (Burchell 1822) fed varying levels of Lactobacillus plantarum (Strain 762) and Psidium guajava (Linneaus) meal. Eighty-four C. gariepinus with mean body weight of 125g were used. Fish were randomly selected in completely randomised design. They were distributed into 21 aquaria of 40L capacity of water. A wound model adopted was a standard 10 mm2 incision made on lateral and caudal regions. Fish were fed using 42% crude protein diet at 0, 40, 60, and 80 of L. plantarum (cells-1000mL) and guava leaf meals (g-1000g) respectively. Wound closures were observed daily for quantitative measurements. Healing rates were measured on the regions at 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 days. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA at P<0.05. The results showed a better healing rate at lateral parts across treatments with complete healing recorded on the 12th day. The fastest healing rates and percentage healing were in fish fed LPA-Basal diet+40 cells-1000mLL. plantarum per kg of feed and GMC- Basal diet+ 80 g-1000g guava meal per kg of feed. These results reveal L. plantarum at lower and P. guajava at higher concentrations had faster healing performance than the control.
