Assessment of Valerian ( Valeriana officinalis) on Common Carp, Cyprinus carpio: Anesthesia Samer Saleem Alshkarchy, Khalidah S. Al-Niaeem, Raaed Sami Attee Iop Conference Series Earth and Environmental Science, 2023 The anesthetic efficacy of Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) powders was evaluated on common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) The following concentrations (250, 350, 450) mg/liter were used in three replicates. During the experiment, the period required for partial and total anesthesia and the time required for partial and total recovery was tested, as well as the number of red and white blood cells after and before Anesthesia in addition to blood serum enzymes represented (ALP, GOT, GPT, CK, and LDH in Ul / l). The results showed that the least period of anesthesia occurred in the fourth treatment, the treatment with a concentration of 450 mg / l, as well as the least period required for recovery, while the recovery period was the longest. And anesthesia in the first treatment exposed to a concentration of 250 mg/liter, and it was not noticed that there was a significant difference between each the number of red blood cells, white blood cells in the test fish before the experiment and after treatment with valerian plants, as well as each of (ALP, GOT, GPT, CK, and LDH in Ul / l) There were no significant differences between all treatments before and after exposure to valerian, and it is concluded from the study that valerian is a safe plant for use in anesthetizing fish.
The Babylon River's common carp (Cyprinus carpio) gills were used for the histopathological examination and PCR detection of Koi herpesvirus disease (KHVD) Sadeq Al-Haider, Ghusoon Alneamah, Samer Alshkarchy, Ahmed Farhood Bionatura, 2022 The first outbreak of koi herpesvirus in Iraq occurred in Babylon Province in the floating cages in the Euphrates River from the Musayyib thermal electric power station to the Al-Hindiya Dam. Fish were suffering from gills rot that did not respond to treatment and lesions and ulcers on the fish's body. The fatalities reached 80%. was water temperature 24°C, pH 6.85, Salinity 760 ppt. So the present study aims to highlight the pathological changes in gills after the Koi herpes virus infection in Babylon Province. The study started after the detection of (KHV) by polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) from the suspected samples (30 ) for the detection of virus nucleic acid. Also, study the water characterization during the periods of outbreaks. The gills specimen was collected from the positive cases for gross and histopathological examination. The result showed that ten samples were positive for (KHV) infection. The gross and histopathological examination results showed severe congestion with necrotic foci and sloughing of secondary lamella with increased mucus secretion. In addition, necrosis in the primary lamellae, Edam and inflammatory cells infiltration with hyperplasia of the secondary lamellae with the presence of intranuclear inclusion body in all exanimated slides. Keywords: Koi Herpes; Cyprinus Carpio; Euphrates River; KHV; secondary lamellae; floating cages
Effect of heavy metals on physiological and histological status in liver of common carp Cyprinus carpio, reared in cages and wild in the Euphrates River, Babil / Iraq. Samer Saleem Alshkarchy, Amjed K. Raesen, Salah M. Najim Iop Conference Series Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 The current study was conducted to examine the concentrations of some heavy metals (Fe, Zn, and Cu) in sediments, chemical and physical properties of water(Temperature, pH, Salinity, Total dissolved solid, Dissolved oxygen, Biological oxygen demand5, Alanin transporter enzyme, aspartase transporter enzyme, Alkaline phosphatase, and histological effects of the studied metal on liver of 96 cage fish and wild fish 4 fish per site Cyprinus carpio (Common carp) in the Euphrates River from October of 2018 until November of 2019. Three sites were selected on the Euphrates River in the middle of Iraq. The first site was Abu Luka, the second site was Al Saddah and the third site was the village of Al-Hussein. The results showed that in the first and second sites, the concentration of heavy metal in sediments and fish liver was greater than in the third site. In general, the cage fish at the first and second sites were higher than the wild fish. It was also noticed that the heavy metal concentration of both fish and sediment took the following order according to the seasons of the year, from the highest concentration of heavy metals to the lowest (summer > spring > autumn > winter). It was found that liver enzymes were directly affected by the presence of high concentrations of heavy Metals. So, both the ALT and AST increased in the first and second sites as compared to the third site. But the ALP value decreased with the increase in the concentration of the studied metal. The results of the histological slicing of the liver in the first and second places revealed a breakdown of the hepatocytes with the creation of gaps between the cells. Several spaces filled with remains of the destructed cells from the visceral tissue of the liver with infiltration of inflammatory cells in the infected area of the fish liver. It is the region’s first study that was concerned with the impact of heavy metal levels in the environment on cage fish and their relationship to blood components and liver enzymes.
