Danabas, Durali; Altun, Tulay
The effects of zeolite (Clinoptilolite (CL)) added into pond water, on some water and growth parameters of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792), were investigated, in the present study. CL was added into water by 0 (control), 1, 2, 3 mg l(-1) rates and carried out in 100 days. The results of the study showed that average body weights of fish in group were respectively, 128.242 +/- 4.748 g, 126.623 +/- 5.545 g, 126.349 +/- 0.339 g and 126.556 +/- 7.663 g and average total lengths were 21.870 +/- 0.355 cm, 21.340 +/- 0.341 cm, 21.783 +/- 0.255 cm and 21.191 +/- 0.193 cm. However, there was no statistical difference among groups for all parameters (P>0.05). At the end of the study, there was no statistical difference among groups for water parameters (P>0.05), but an obvious decreasing was observed in nitrate rates during study and in ammonium and nitrite rates during only first period.

İncele - MakaleYalnız künye2011Scopus SJRQ2BENEFICIAL EFFECTS OF GRAPE SEED EXTRACT AGAINST CISPLATIN-INDUCED TESTICULER DAMAGE IN RABBITS

Biological compounds with antioxidant properties may contribute to the protection of cells and tissues against deleterious effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and other free radicals induced by cisplatin. This study was performed to investigate the possible protective role of antioxidant treatment with grape seed extract (GSE) on cisplatin-induced testes oxidant injury using biochemical approaches. The degree of protection produced by GSE was evaluated by determining the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH), the activity of catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), were estimated from testes of rabbits. Male New Zealand white rabbits were divided into 3 groups (n=6): 1-Control group(1 ml saline. i.p) 2-Cisplatin group (a single dose of cisplatin (5 mg/kg, i.p) 3-A single dose of cisplatin (5 mg/kg, i.p) + GSE (250 mg/kg/day, i.p) for 6 days. MDA level were significantly higher when compared to Control (p < 0.05). In Cisplatin+grapes groups MDA levels were found significantly lower than cisplatin group (p < 0.05). GSH levels were decreased with cisplatin compared to control but in case of cisplatin+ GSE it increased (p < 0.05). In treated rabbits, the activity of CAT and GSH-Px was decreased in cisplatin and cisplatin+ GSE groups compared to control (p < 0.001). These results indicate that the antioxidant GSE might have a protective effect against cisplatin-induced testiculer damage and oxidative stress in rabbit.
