Effect of different concentrations of protein on the digestive system of juvenile silver catfish
Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2012 Aspects of digestion in juvenile silver catfish Rhamdia quelen fed with four levels of protein (20, 27, 34 and 41%) were studied. The studied traits were digestive enzymes (nonspecific proteases, trypsin, chymotrypsin, amylase and lipase) and weight gain.

Inactivated Parapoxvirus ovis as inducer of immunity in silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen) [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2016 Molecules with immune modulating activity are ubiquitously distributed in nature and their impact on aquaculture has been exploited in order to increase fish resistance to pathogens. Here, we investigated the effect of inactivated Parapoxvirus ovis (iPPVO) on blood cells and innate and acquired immune response of silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen).

Imazapyr+imazapic herbicide determines acute toxicity in silver catfish Rhamdia quelen
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2016 Imazapyr (IMY) and imazapic (IMI) are imidazolinone herbicides which have been associated in a commercial formulation (Kifix(®)). To date, there are no studies on the toxicity of an IMY+IMI herbicide in fish. This work aimed to assess the acute toxicity (24 and 96 h) of IMY+IMI (0, 0.488 and 4.88 µg/L) towards Rhamdia quelen through hematological ...

Nanocomposite of silver nanoparticles/diatomite against pathogenous bacteria for catfish
Aquaculture Reports, 2020 Study on electron beam (EB) irradiation of AgNO3/chitosan/Diatomite (DA) suspension mixture was carried out. Influence of AgNO3 precursor’s concentration on the size and the content of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) deposited in DA was investigated. The TEM images demonstrated the AgNPs in nanocomposite of AgNPs/DA were spherical with an average diameter

Anesthetic activity of Brazilian native plants in silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen) [PDF]
Neotropical Ichthyology, 2013 There is an increasing demand for inexpensive and safe anesthetics that can reduce fish stress caused by some procedures such as capture and handling. In this context, the present study evaluated the potential of essential oils (EO) of three Brazilian native plants (Hesperozygis ringens, Lippia sidoides and Ocotea acutifolia) as anesthetics for the ...
