Resumo: |
Intensifying aquaculture production allows the development of stressful conditions, weakening the immune system of fish. An alternative to the use of chemical and natural substances is immunostimulants. Thus, a modulation of the immune response and the growth of pacu juveniles (P. mesopotamicus) fed with fructooligosaccharides were objectified. One hundred and five animals (49.25 ± 13.77g) were randomly distributed in 12 aquariums (60L; 10 fish / box) and fed for sixty days with feed (PB 32%) containing fructooligosaccharide (FOS) (0.0%, 0.2% and 0.4%) in a completely randomized design (n = 4). At the end of the experimental period, fish fed with 0.2% of FOS showed a higher total count of erythrocytes, leucocytes and total thrombocytes, as well as influence on mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and corpuscular mean hemoglobin (MHC) (P ˂ 0 , 05). Although it has altered these parameters, the fructooligosaccharide had no effect on the leukocyte activity, being considered a modulator of the immune response under the conditions tested. |
