Abstract :

In the present study the enzymatic and nonenzymatic activities of Oreochromis mossambicus larvae fed with commercial herbal enriched Artemia nauplii was analysed. Unenriched Artemia (Control), Coriandrum sativum (Experiment-I), Centella asiatica (II), Triconella foenum (III), and Amaranthus polygonoides (IV) enriched with Artemia salina for 50 days. The effect of herbals on the level of antioxidant (The Phenol Tannins Ascorbic acid, α-Tocopherol, Ferric Free Antioxidant, Invitro Lipid Peroxidation and Measurement of Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances) and enzyme activity (Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) Glutamate Oxaloacetate Transaminase (GOT) and Glutamate Pyruvate Transaminase (GPT), were analyzed after the experimental period. It was statistically significant for both control and Experimental groups at (p<0.05) level.
