Abstract In hypoxic environments, fish attempt to regulate their metabolic rate as oxygen levels in the water decline. Individuals that have low energy requirements for maintenance – standard metabolic rate (SMR) – are expected to have higher hypoxia tolerance, measured as the critical water oxygen saturation threshold (Scrit) below which they cannot ...

Leukocytes respiratory burst and lysozyme level in pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus Holmberg, 1887)
Innate immune responses are useful to determine the health status of fish and to evaluate the effect of immunomodulatory substances in fish farming. Leukocytes respiratory burst was measured in pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) using chemiluminescence assay

Essential oil of Lippia origanoides as an anesthetic for Piaractus mesopotamicus: implications for induction and recovery times, ventilatory frequency and blood responses after biometric management [PDF]
This study evaluated the use of the essential oil of Lippia origanoides (EOLO) as an anesthetic for juvenile pacu, Piaractus mesopotamicus. Two experiments were performed. In Experiment I, anesthetic induction and recovery times and ventilatory frequency

ABSTRACT The fatty acid composition of fish is influenced by species, age, diet, and tissues, which respond differently to dietary lipids. This study examined how two commercial diets with contrasting polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) profiles, affecting eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), alter the fatty acid composition in ...

Postoperative Effects of Celecoxib on Opioid Use and Pain Control After Benign Oropharyngeal Surgery
This study evaluated how the addition of celecoxib to a multimodal pain regimen following tonsillectomy + adenoidectomy, or uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) + tonsillectomy affects postoperative opioid use and pain control. Patients who received celecoxib consumed significantly fewer opioids compared to the historic control group, with similar ...
