  Rainbow trout aquaculture is challenging due to the restricted spawning seasons. Sperm cryopreservation technology can help ensure a successful spawning season, but its effectiveness is restricted by oxidative stress during freezing and thawing, which reduces the availability of male gametes. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of several types and concentrations of antioxidants on post-cryopreservation rainbow trout sperm quality. Subsequently, a factorial completely randomized design with three replications was applied, testing four types of antioxidants Ascorbic acid, Myo-inositol, Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and Alpha-tocopherol at concentrations of 0, 20, 40, and 60 mM, respectively. The evaluation parameters included motility rate, sperm lifespan, and sperm motion characteristics using the Computer Assisted Sperm Analysis system. The results showed that the type and concentration of antioxidants significantly affected sperm motility and sperm lifespan (P<0.05). The treatment method carried out using 40 mM Ascorbic acid and 20 mM BHT led to the highest sperm motility of 46.67% and sperm lifespan of 34 seconds. Although both antioxidants showed similar effectiveness, BHT at a concentration of 20 mM is more recommended due to its lower toxicity and technical as well as economic efficiency considerations.

  Relative Efficiencies of Live, Dry and Mixed Food Diets for Larval Rearing of Tigris Scraper (Capoeta umbla) and the Influence of Stocking Density on Fry Growth Characteristics

  Gün, Abdulselam; Kızak, Volkan; Gündüz, Fatih

  In this research, larval growth features by applying different diets and growth characteristics of fry at different stocking densities were studied under controlled conditions for the Tigris scraper (Capoeta umbla). In the first experiment, the growth and survival rates of Tigris scraper postlarvae were evaluated under three different diet regimes over 21 days. The highest mean total length was 24.04±0.27 mm in the group L1 fed solely Artemia nauplii, and the lowest mean total length was 17.89±0.16 mm in the group L2 fed only dry feed. The highest mean specific growth rate was in the L1, and the lowest mean specific growth rate was in the L2. In the second experiment in which the growth characteristics of fry were investigated at different stocking densities for 98 days, the highest mean live weight was found in S1 with 2.819±0.157 g and the lowest mean live weight was determined as 0.859±0.073 g in S5. The highest mean specific growth rate was in S1, while the lowest rate was in S5. High stocking densities were found to be disadvantageous for growth of C. umbla fry. The findings suggest that successful rearing of Tigris scraper postlarvae and fry is feasible under controlled conditions.

  Protective Effect of Propolis Against Oxidative Damage Caused by Cyfluthrin Insecticide on Gammarus pulex

  Serdar, Osman

  This study aimed to investigate both the protective and therapeutic effects of propolis (PP) against pesticide-induced oxidative stress in aquatic environments. For this purpose, Gammarus pulex was exposed to 0.00 (control), 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 ppm concentrations of cyfluthrin (CYF) to determine its toxic effects. To evaluate the protective effect of PP, 5 ppm of PP was added to each pesticide concentration. Samples were collected from all experimental groups after 24 and 96 hours under appropriate conditions. SOD activity decreased under CYF exposure but increased significantly after PP supplementation. Although CAT activity did not show significant changes with CYF alone, it increased in the presence of PP. GPx activity remained statistically unchanged under CYF exposure but increased following PP treatment. CYF exposure led to decreased GSH levels; however, PP did not significantly alter GSH levels. TBARS levels increased due to CYF, and this increase was alleviated by PP application.

  Farm-Raised Versus Wild Caught Fish: Which is Better?

  Can, Erkan; Özçiçek, Esin; Erol, Nida Demirtaş; Austin, Brian

  There has been much discussion about which is better, farmed (= aquaculture) or wild-caught fish (= capture-fisheries), with supporters and opponents of both approaches. On balance, aquaculture should be the better option because of the ability to control all aspects of production. The result is that farmed products are often cheaper than wild-caught equivalents. However, there are negative aspects to aquaculture, including habitat destruction, for example the removal of mangroves for the construction of shrimp farms, the effect of escapees on native fish populations, and the possible negative impact of pollution from organic material, pathogens and antimicrobial compounds. The use of wild-caught “trash” fish as a source of protein and oil for the diets of carnivorous fish species in aquaculture is unsustainable. In contrast with wild-caught fish, there is greater variability in supply because of overfishing, quotas imposed by governments, and the effects of adverse weather. Moreover, fishing in distant waters is expensive and hazardous. Certainly, the quality of the product is more difficult to control because the history of the catch is largely unknown. However, there are concerns about illegal fishing activities, and the capture of undersized specimens which impacts negatively on future stocking levels. For the forseeable future, there will be roles for both aquaculture and capture-fisheries to meet the increasing global demand for aquatic food.

  Determination of the Effect of Nanoparticle Copper on Navicula cryptocephala var. veneta by Biomarkers and Bioaccumulation Amounts

  Serdar, Osman; Aydın, Ayşe Nur; Ölçülü, Abdüllatif; Çiçek Çimen, Işıl Canan; Parlak Ak, Tuba; Derman, Taner; Pala, Ayşegül; Yıldırım, Nuran Cikcikoğlu

  Pollutants such as copper nanoparticles (CuNP), which form residues in the environment, especially in water environments, cause serious damage to the environment and the organisms living in the environment. In this study, Navicula cryptocephala var. veneta was selected as a model organism. The EC50 values of CuNP on Navicula cryptocephala var. veneta were determined as 4.94 mg\L and 3 different application concentrations were determined considering this ratio. The experiments were carried out in 3 replicates and samples were taken at 24 and 96 hours. At the end of 120 hours, samples were taken to determine the elimination values. CuNP accumulation amounts in the samples were measured by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrophotometer (ETAAS). For biomarker analysis, thiobarbituric acid (TBARS) and glutathione (GSH) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities were performed using CAYMAN ELISA kit. According to the study data, as CuNP concentration and application time increased, the amount of accumulation in Navicula cryptocephala also increased. Increasing-decreasing changes were observed in elimination. CuNP caused oxidative stress in N. cryptocephala and caused changes in TBARS and GSH levels. In addition, it caused increases in SOD activities and statistically significant decreases (P<0.05) in CAT and GPx activities.

  The Effects of Probiotic-Prebiotic on the Biomass and Protein Content of Spirulina platensis in Different Temperatures and Illuminations

  Seyhaneyıldız Can, Şafak; Seyhaneyıldız, Elif; Dörücü, Mustafa

  The blue-green algae Spirulina platensis Geitler 1925 has been used by people since ancient times due to its high protein content. This study was conducted to determine the effect of a Probiotic-Prebiotic (P-P) product, which contains Bifidobacterium infantis, Bifidobacterium thermophilum, Leuconostoc mesenteroides as probiotic bacteria, and beta-glucan and oligosaccharide as a prebiotic mixture on S. platensis. In the study, four groups were one of which was a control. In this study, we investigated whether the P-P product contributed to the biomass development and protein production of S. platensis under different temperatures and lighting conditions. In terms of biomass, the P-P product gave different responses at different temperatures and light intensities, but its results were positive in all groups in terms of protein ratio. The most positive effect on biomass and protein content was in the group where 0.1 ml/L P-P product was added, at 40°C and 3200 lux with 68.71% protein content and an average OD of 0.727.

  Study of the bioaccumulation of UO2 2+ onto the green microalgae botryococcus braunii using response surface methodology

  Celik, Fatih; Aslani, Mahmoud Ali Asker; Can, Safak Seyhaneyildiz

  The bioaccumulation of UO2 2+ (uranyl ion) was investigated by using dry biomass of Botryococcus braunii. Experiments were conducted based on a rotatable central composite design (CCD) and analyzed using response surface methodology (RSM), which was used to optimize the bioaccumulation process. In this goal, the effects of parameters such as initial uranium (VI) concentration, pH, temperature and contact time were studied. The optimum conditions for maximum removal (87%) of UO2 2+ from an aqueous solution were as follows: initial uranium (VI) concentration (55 mg/l), pH (3.6), temperature (46°C) and contact time (74 min). Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms and also thermodynamic parameters like Enthalpy (∆H°), Entropy (∆S°), standard Gibbs free energy (∆G°) were investigated, as well.

  Uranium (VI) Biosorption on Marine Sponge, Sarcotragus foetidus (Schmidt, 1862) and Its Statistical Investigation Using Central Composite Design

  Celik, Fatih; Camas, Mustafa; Camas, Anil Sazak; Ozalp, Hasan Baris

  The biosorption of heavy metals, radionuclides, uranium and thorium for the recovery or removal from aqueous systems using various micro-organisms and biological substances has been investigated by several groups of workers. In this paper, the uptake of uranium (VI) from aqueous systems by a marine sponge, Sarcotragus foetidus (Schmidt, 1862) has been investigated. S. foetidus samples were collected from Babakale/Ayvacik/Canakkale in Turkey. Uranium (VI) uptake experiments were carried out by the batch technique. The affecting parameters were analyzed using Central Composite Design (CCD) as the experimental method. Four independent variables such-pH, temperature, contact time, and initial uranium concentration were selected for this study. The influences of initial pH, contact time, and initial uranium concentration on the biosorption process were considered statistically significant as main effects. On the other hand, interaction effects of pH and contact time, as well as pH and initial uranium concentration, were considered as significant parameters on the biosorption process. The optimum condition of biosorption process was found to be at initial pH: 4, temperature: 35 degrees C, initial uranium concentration: 20 mg/L, and contact time: 31 minutes. At these conditions, the biosorption yield of uranium (VI) ions was obtained to be 93.29 +/- 2%.

  Benzer, Fulya; Özçelik, Mehtap; Yildirim, Nuran Cikcikoglu

  The effects of dietary antioxidants (vitamine E, vitamine C, Astaxhantin, beta carotene) on arginase activity and nitric oxide levels of hepatopancreas and muscle of freshwater crayfish (Actacus leptodactylus) were investigated during moulting. 150 mg kg(-1) vitamine E (VE), 200 mg kg(-1) vitamine C (VC), 200 mg kg(-1) Astaxhantin and 200 mg kg(-1) beta carotene were added to experimental diets. A. leptodactylus with these diets were fed with 2% of their total weight daily, in a day during 75 days. Arginase activity was increased in muscle of crayfish fed the diets VC, VE, astaxanthin and beta karoten but in hepatopancreas arginase activity was increased with beta carotene when compared to control. NO levels in muscle were decreased when compared to control but this decrease was not statically significant. NO levels in hepatopancreas of crayfish fed the diets VC and astaxanthin were higher than control groups. Our results demonstrated that dietary antioxidants affect the arginase activity and nitric oxide level of freshwater crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus, Esch. 1823) during moulting.
