Muscle necrosis, haemorrhaging, inflammation and suppuration are common. Acute pathology occasionally happens when several parasites settle close together. The necrosis of tissues can cause serious lesions that can become secondarily infected by bacteria or fungi. Inflammation and then tissue growth around the site of entry encapsulate the parasite’s body.This survey in order to identify histopathologic effects of Lernea was performed on silver carp and grass carp. For this purpose 80 carp has been hunted from four ponds of shushtar city with random selection (20 fish from each pond). All fish hunted in summer season. Sampling was performed by cutted skin and muscle from parasite attachment and placed into 10% formalin buffer. Pathological slides were prepared with standard method, then analyzed under close microscopic observation. The results showed inflammation with cellular infiltration and giant cell penetration, skin’s hyperplasia, new fibroblasts formation, melanosis, muscular necrosis, hyperemia, vascularization and hemorrhage which showed defense response via blood cell’s defense and formation of healing tissue. Most of parasites were isolated from skin area meanwhile, the total percentage of infection to lernea was 30%. Manuscript profile -

3 - The effect of nisin A and sodium benzoate on behavior of Listeria monosytogenes and some microbial and chemical parameters in silver carp (Hypophtalmichtys molitrix) fillet stored at 4˚C
رضا Safari M.R Saeidi Asl The effect of nisin A and sodium benzoate on Listeria monocytogenes, as well as some microbial (mesophilic, psychrotrophic and lactic acid bacteria) and chemical (peroxide and TVN) in silver carp (Hypophtalmichtys molitrix) fillet during storage period (0, More The effect of nisin A and sodium benzoate on Listeria monocytogenes, as well as some microbial (mesophilic, psychrotrophic and lactic acid bacteria) and chemical (peroxide and TVN) in silver carp (Hypophtalmichtys molitrix) fillet during storage period (0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 days) at 4˚C were evaluated. For this, Listeria monocytogenes (4 logCFU/g) was inoculated to the fillets and were dipped into 2% sodium benzoate solution for 15 min and left to stand for 10 min at 4˚C. Subsequently nisin A was added to the fillet (0/15 g/kg) and samples were kept at 4˚C while packaged in vacuum condition. The results showed that, application of nisin A and sodium benzoate decrease the number of Listeria monocytogenes from 4/12 to 3/66. However, in control groups the number of bacterium was increased from 4/43 to 5/14. Moreover, the number of mesophilic bacteria in treatment and control groups was increased from 4/39 to 6/79 and 4/48 to 7/93, respectively. The number of psychrotrophic bacteria in treatment and control groups was increased from 4/16 to 6/72 and 4/34 to 7/92, respectively. The similar result was achieved for lactic acid bacteria in which the number of these bacteria was increased from 2/74 to 4/08 and 2/9 to 4/78, respectively. Moreover, different peroxide value and TVN for treatment and control groups was achieved. In conclusion, application of nisin A and sodium benzoate showed different inhibitory effects on Listeria monocytogenes in culture media and silver carp. Manuscript profile -

In this study, chemical changes including pH, thiobarbituric acid (TBA), total volatile basic nitrogen (TVN) and microbial counts such as coliform bacteria, fecal coliform, salmonella and Escherichia coli in vacuum packed fillet of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) was performed during 30 days storage at 4 ± 1 °C. Fresh silver carp fish samples (ranged 900 to 1200 g) were obtained and transported to the laboratory. Data were analyzed using SPSS 18 software. Results showed that the highest levels of TVN and pH were determined as 63.33 ± 1.82 mg/100 g and 6.81 ± 0.04 in the day 30, respectively. According to the results, TBA, TVN and pH values were increased during 30 days storage. Moreover, total bacterial count increased during the 30 days of storage. Results revealed that coliform counts were less than 2 log cfu/g during the 30 days of storage. Increasing trend of faecal coliform at the end of storage period was estimated as 2.38±0.01 log cfu/g. Considering the microbial populations and the chemical spoilage indicators (TBA and TVN), the shelf life of 15 days was established for the vacuum packaged fillet stored at 4±1°C.

Results of this investigation showed that amounts of unsaturated and saturated fatty acids in fresh samples were 70/95% and 28/95% respectively. In fresh tissues the amount of oleic acid was 30/16%, and Iino leice amount was 11/44%. Alpfa – lino lenice acide was 4/41%, Gcosapanethanoic was 6/42% and docosa hexanoic was 6/15%. These were the most important poly-saturated fatty acids. But after six months of freezing at -18° c the amounts of these fatty acids decreased to 10/02%, 3/18%, 2/97%, 1/05% and 1/02% respectively. Results showed a decrease in freezing condition of fatty acids. Based on these results, the best storage for frozen fish in -18°C is four months. These results were subjected to tests of Tukey and Analysis of Variance and were significant at the level of 95%. Manuscript profile -

Blood samples were taken from the caudal vein after 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. Results showed that, hematocrite (Hct), hemoglobin levels (Hb), mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) increased significantly (p<0/05). The number of White Blood Cell (WBC) on 5 mg/L and 10 mg/lit treatments until 72 hours decreased significantly but after 96 hours it increased significantly (P<0/05). The number of Red Blood Cells (RBC) decreased significantly until 96 hours (P<0/05). According to the results, blood parameters were sensitive factors in monitoring the toxicity and the stress caused by zinc particularly in acute concentrations. Manuscript profile -

The number of white blood cells decreased in 72hours, but they increased in 96 hours (P<0.05). The number of neutrophils decreasedwith time. However, the number of eosinophils increased at concentration of 10 mgin 96 hours and reached to the maximum. The number of monocytes showedirregular fluctuations. Thus, increase of the heavy metal cadmium level in wateraffected immune system in Silver Carp negatively. Manuscript profile -

On days 1, 4, 7, 10 and 14 of storage, the treatments were chemically analyzed in terms of thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), microbial load (total bacterial load) and moisture content, acidity (PH), and water holding capacity (WHC). Based on the obtained results, the amount of TVB-N in all treatments was significantly reduced compared to control treatment (p < 0.05). The increasing trend of bioaburic acid during storage period in all treatments was significantly lower than the control treatment. Considering total bacterial load, all of the coated specimens had significantly lower bacterial load compared to the control group except for the first day. Based on the evaluation results of treatments moisture during the storage period, there was a significant difference in all indices except on day 14. There was also no significant difference between samples with regard to samples WHC. Considering pH, a significant difference was observed in indices on different days between samples except on days 4 and 14. In relation to pressurized water, the obtained data from treatments showed no significant difference except on day 4. Considering that treatment 3 (treatment coated with 3% salvia extract) showed more advantages in most indices compared to other coated treatments, the above mentioned coating was therefore recognized as the best treatment in this study and its application is recommended for effective preservation of the chemical and microbial properties of food products during the storage period.
