The aim of this study was investigate the effect of different level of zinc sulfate (ZnSo4) on hematocrit and hematology for assess the effects of this mineral matter on goldfish health.Materials and Methods:Experimental diets prepared with four levels(four treatments and each treatment include three repetitions) 0, 25, 75 and 125 mg/kg. Healthy fish with average weight 3.3 ± 0.10 and average length 3.5 ± 0.2 was maintained in 400 liter tanks withtemperature 28 ± 1, pH 7.5 ± 0.5 and hardness 286 ± 1.2 and feed for 60 days and end the trial hematocrit and hematology parameter was measured.ResultsResult of analysis the hematological parameter of fish feed with different levels of zinc showed that white blood cells (WBC), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean cell hemoglobin (MCH) and mean cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) in our experimental treatments did not show a significant difference (p≥0.05) but in red blood cells (RBC), hematocrit (Ht) and hemoglobin (Hb) there was significant difference between treatments (p≤0.05). Red blood cell count, hematocrit and hemoglobin in zinc sulfate treatments (treatments 2, 3 and 4) had higher values and the highest value was in group 4 (150 mg kg zinc sulfate), which there was significant difference between2 and 3 treatments also hada significant difference with control group.Conclusion:The results shows that zinc in the diet stimulate the immune system and can have positive effects on the health and hematological factors of goldfish.

For this reason, scientists are seeking ways of which specifically affect cancer cells. Photothermal therapy is a method that uses near-infra red (NIR) laser energy to create sufficient heat to destroy cancer cells. In this study, the photothermal effect of gold nanorods (GNRs) was investigated for breast cancer treatment in vitroMaterials and Methods:GNRs with peak absorption of 808 nm were synthesized and coated with Poly ethilen glycol (PEG). After confirming the characteristics of the prepared complex, the therapeutic effect of new agent was studied on SK-BR-3 cell line by using the NIR laser.ResultsThe cytotoxcicity assay showed the biocompatibility of PEGylated GNRs complex. Through the in vitro photothermal study, significant cell death was observed in breast cancer cells incubated with the complex along with the laser irradiation. The biodistribusion study showed the appropriate localization of new agent in vital organs after 24 h in mouse model. ConclusionIn summary, the present study reports the successful treatment of Breast cancer cells by the prepared photothermal agent using. Labeling of gold nanoparticles(such as antibodies) can improve the treatment efficiency and prevent damage to healthy cells that need further studies. Manuscript profile

Inroduction & Objective: One of the most important economic traits in sheep is twining. Genetic studies have identified a set of genes that affect twining with major effects called fertility genes. One of them is GDF9 gene that have been identifying on sheep chromosome 5.This study conducted to investigate the GDF9 gene polymorphism and its relationship with prolificacy trait in Karakul sheep breed.Material and MethodsBlood samples and birth data collected from 100 Karakul sheep at the Karakul breeding station of Sarakhs-Iran. After DNA extraction one pair of specific primer selected to amplify a 1503 bp fragment of the gene and Rsa I enzyme was used to digest the amplified fragment. The results showed a mutation at GDF9 locus in Karakul sheep. The relationship between genotypes and twining rate investigated using SAS 9.1 software.Results: The results showed a significant relationship (PConclusion:Therefore, the mutation in GDF9 gene is a useful mutation and fix it will increase twining rate and will ultimately increase revenue.

This ecosystem is under the influence of pollutants and environmental factors which put the life of inhabitant species in danger. To investigate the structure and histology of digestive system accessory glands of newly hatched larvae of Caspian Kutum, Rutilus frisii kutum, the larvae of this fish were examined. Material and MethodFirst of all, the larvae were fixed in bouin solution and after the common protocol of the histology, 6 μm thick sections were modified and after the staining of haematoxylin and eosin the sections were studied using light microscope.Results: The accessory glands of digestive system were: liver, hepatopancreas, gall bladder and the yolk sac. Yolk sac was a large structure at the ventral side of the body made of the yolk cells. Liver was made up of hepatocytes which were multidimensional cells sited around the hepatic sinusoids. Bile ducts were observed in liver and ended up in to a gall bladder. At the terminal part of the liver tissue there was a hepathopancreas composed of eosinophilic exocrine cells.Counclusion:Results of the present study showed that the accessory glands of digestive system in newly hatched larvae of Caspian kutum were totally formed and practical waiting for opening of the mouth to complete the secretory duty of themselves.

The total length and total weight was measured to investigate the status of fish growth and in order to measure the accumulation of carotenoids in the skin and muscle, was used from spectrophotometry.Results:The length, weight, gain weight, condition factor and Special growth factor of treatments especially in entire experimental period were lower related to negative and positive control treatments. The amount of carotenoids in the skin and muscle tissues of fish in all treatments was observed higher than the negative control. In experimental treatments with increasing concentration of natural carotenoid in the diets had increased the carotenoid skin and muscle tissues (p≤0.05).Counclusion:Low performance between different indexes of growth in experimental treatments, represents presence of limiting factors of growth, the high fiber and low fat Content in tomato powder experimental treatments.Reducing the storage of carotenoids in comparison with the positive control treatment and increasing its storage compared to non-pigmented treatment in experimental treatments indicates inadequate and ineffective metabolism of carotenes in tomato powder in silver dollar fish.

Material and Methods:A total number of 420 fish (45±0.1 mg) were supplied and randomly stocked in 60 L aquariums assigned to four treatments repeated in triplicates. Fish were with four experimental diets contain0, 0.5, 1 and 2% prebiotic for 8 weeks. At the end of feeding trial, total antioxidant activity as well as expression of antioxidant defense related genes Catalase (CAT) and Superoxide dismutase (SOD).Results:The obtained results revealed that administration of different levels of GOS had no significant effects on total antioxidant activity (P>0.05). Also, gene expression studies showed that CAT expression was remarkably down-regulated in fish fed 0.5 and 2% GOS (P0.05). Evaluation of SOD gene expression revealed significant down regulation in prebiotic fed fish (0.5, 1 and 2%) compared control group (P0.05).Counclusion:Based on these results, it seems that administration of GOS in zebra fish diet down-regulates antioxidant defense related genes without any effect on total antioxidant activity.
