The Effect of Wheatgrass Juice Administration on Physiological State and Oxidative Stress in Carp
The present paper systematizes the results of the research on the effect of wheatgrass juice administration on some important indicators in assessing the physiological state of two summer-old Cyprinus carpio individuals coming from a recirculating system, as well as on some biochemical parameters with role in the antioxidant defensive. For this, an experiment was carried out over a period of 56 days, which consist in growth of 200 carp specimens, with an initial average weight of 72.85�1.79 g/specimen. Observations carried out during the entire monitoring period of the experimental variants emphasized a good sanitary status of the studied specimens, accompanied by an active feeding behavior. The results on the activity of oxidative stress enzymes and malon-dialdehyde concentration emphasized significant differences between the treated variants with wheatgrass juice and the control variant, closely related to the wheat juice concentration with which the food ration was supplemented.
