Project objective
The objective of study is to assess the effect of nitrite, CO2 and temperature on physiological parameters, growth performance and the ability to acclimate with elevation of this factors of basa fish (Pangasius bocourti). The outcomes of this study will provide scientific data to eliminate the toxicities of investigated factors in aquaculture. Besides, the results will also contribute to fisheries resource management and sustainable development of aquaculture.
Project description
The contents of this study include (1) effects of nitrite and temperature on physiological parameters and growth performance of fish; (2) effects of nitrite and CO2 on physiological parameters and growth performance of fish; and (3) effects of nitrite on enzyme methemoglobin reductase activity and oxygen consumption of fish.
