Impact of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) on the growth performance, hemato-biochemical, physiological parameters and digestive enzymes activity of GIFT Tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus)
Abstract
This study was conducted for 60 days to evaluate the efficiency and influence on different levels of dietary supplementation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (0.15%, 0.30%, 0.45%, 0.60%, 0.75% and 1% named as SC1, SC2, SC3, SC4, SC5 and SC6 as potential probiotic for improving the growth performance, body composition, hemato-biochemical parameters, digestive enzyme activities and stress resistance of GIFT Tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus). The study showed significantly better effects on growth performance (P<0.05; 0.01) as compared to control. Moreover, better growth performance was observed in SC4 groups fed with S. cerevisiae. Significant differences in crude protein, crude lipids, ash contents, crude fibre and carbohydrates were observed. Hematological parameters indicated that RBC count, HB, HCT and MCHC were significantly higher in SC4 treatments. Total and specific amylase activities, total and specific protease activities as well as total and specific lipase activities were significantly higher in SC6. Aeromonas hydrophila and salinity stress challenge tests provided higher survival rates in the treatment SC4 (95%). Hematological parameters indicated highly significant differences (P<0.01) in RBC, HB, MCV, MCH, MCHC, leukocyte count, lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, survival after challenge with salinity and A. hydrophilla. Differential total leukocyte counts observed maximum in SC5 indicated a significant increase in lymphocytes, monocytes and granulocytes observed higher in SC4 in probiotic treated groups as compared to control which indicated high immune response. It can be concluded that the addition of 0.60% S. cerevisiae of the diet enhances growth performance, body composition, hematological parameters, digestive enzyme activities and stress resistance in (O. mossambicus).
