Hematological parameters and antioxidant responses in olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus in biofloc depend on water temperature

摘要

The purpose of this study was to ascertain the optimum water temperature for breeding juvenile Paralichthys olivaceus in biofloc. Hemoglobin and hematocrit were significantly decreased when the temperature was higher than 28 degrees C. Plasma calcium, glucose, cholesterol, glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase, and glutamic pyruvic transaminase were significantly elevated at high temperatures, whereas total protein was substantially lower. Superoxide dismutase and glutathione-S-transferase activities in the liver and gills were significantly elevated at high temperatures, whereas glutathione was significantly lower. This indicates that temperatures greater than 26 degrees C induced hematological changes and oxidative stress in the juvenile P. olivaceus in biofloc. We ascribe these changes to thermal stress.
