The Effect Of Immune Enhancer On The Non-Specific Defense Mechanism Of Red Tilapia Hybrid (Oreochromis Niloticus X Oreochromis Mossambicus) Challenged With Aeromonas Hydrophilla

Immunomodulation of ENCAP in red tilapia hybrid against Aeromonas hydrophila was studied. Different concentrations of ENCAP (0, 500, 750 and 1000 mg/kg of feed) were fed to different groups of fish and later challenged by intraperitoneal injection of 8 x 108 CFU/ml A. hydrophila. The non-specif...

Hematocrit level sand WBC counts decreased in all the groups due to migration of erythrocyte sand leukocytes to the infected areas.
