The present study was conducted to
investigate the efficacy of a Chenopodium
album aqueous methanolic
extract supplementation on the immunological and haematological indices, digestive enzyme activity and growth
performance of the common carp (Cyprinus carpio). C. album was added to a basal
diet at the rate of 0 (CA0), 0.1 (CA0.1), 0.5 (CA0.5) and 1 g kg−1 (CA1), and C. carpio was fed this diet for 45 days. Respiratory burst activity
was significantly increased in all experimental groups on days
15 and 30 compared to the
control (P < 0.05). Lysozyme activity was
significantly increased over all sampling times
compared to the control except in CA1 (P < 0.05). Myeloperoxidase activities were significantly
increased in all experimental groups compared to the control
(P < 0.05). Haematological parameters were significantly decreased compared to the control
(P < 0.05). Trypsin and lipase
activities were significantly increased in CA0.5 and CA1 compared to the
control (P < 0.05). Amylase
activity was significantly improved in all experimental groups compared to the control
(P < 0.05). Final weight, weight
gain and SGR were significantly enhanced in CA0.1 and CA1 compared to the control
(P < 0.05). FCR was
not different in any of
the experimental group (P > 0.05). These results demonstrate that dietary supplementation with an aqueous methanolic extract has beneficial effects on the immune
responses, digestive enzyme activity and growth performance of C. carpio.
