description | <b>Aim: </b>The aim of this research was to examine the efficacies of propofol
and clove oil to decrease the metabolic activity during transportation
in order to determine optimal protocols for sedation of fish.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> 126 Jack Dempsey fish were used in this
research. Control (n:42), propofol (n:42) and clove oil (n:42) groups
placed into closed clear plastic fish bags filled with three litres of
oxygen per litre of water and supplemented with 0.1 ml/L of propofol
and clove oil. Respiratory rates, induction and recovery times,
feed intake and color-changing times were measured while reactions
to light, vibration and touch were scored for sensitivity controls.<p>
<b>Results:</b> According to the results, the decrease of respiratory rates
per minute (67.26 ± 6.3, 50.26 ± 9.4, 36.52 ± 4.6, 11.74 ± 4.8, 7.10 ±
3.5, 4.50 ± 2.2, 3.69 ±1.5) and recovery time respiratory rates (frequency
per minute) of the propofol group (80.12 ± 1.84) differed from
the control and clove oil groups (p ? 0.05). Regarding the sensibility
controls, propofol group was less sensible to light, vibration and touch.<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> Considering its low cost and easy availability, since
propofol has been found to be more suitable and clove oil was more
ineffective than propofol, therefore propofol can be recommended as
a priority in the transport of aquarium fish. |
