[Methods] Three kinds of compound Chinese medicines (respectively called A, B and C) were added into basic material feed as feed additives, continuous fed 1 ^+ age Acipenser schrenckii for 35 d, then weight gain rate was determined and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA) content, total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) activity in serum and liver were detected. [ Results ] Chinese medicine formulae could increase the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, total antioxidant capacity (ToAOC) and glutathione per- oxidase (GSH-PX) in serum and liver of sturgeon. Especially SOD enzyme activity of serum in the three formulae groups was significantly higher ( P 〈 0.05) than control group, SOD enzyme activities of fish liver in group A and C were significantly higher ( P 〈 0.05) than control group; T-AOC activities of serum and liver in the three formulae groups were both incressed, but had no significant differences with that of the control group; only GSH-PX activities of fish serum in group B and C had significant differences (P〈0.05) with that of control group, GSH-PX activities of liver in the three formulae groups had no significant differences with that of control group; and traditional Chinese medicine could significantly reduce malondialdehyde (MDA) content of sturgeon serum, MDA contents of serum and liver in three formulae groups had significant differences (P 〈 0.05) with that of control group. [ Conclusion] The selected three kinds of compound Chinese medicine additives had different degree of ability to improve sturgeon antioxidant function.展开更多

All of the isolates were identified as A. hydrophila by traditional biochemical method and yielded a 686-bp DNA fragment of the 16S rDNA gene in the PCR experiments. Collected strains were also evaluated for their susceptibility to 17 different antibiotics. The isolates showed an even trend of the resistance and sensitivity to drugs, highly sensitive to antibiotics, such as Levofloxacin, PolymyxinB, Ofloxacin and resistant to antibiotics, such as Bristopen, Lincomycin, Ampicillin, Teicoplanin. Evaluation of genetic diversity was performed on all isolates by molecular typing with enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC-PCR) method. The results showed that three different types, i.e. type I, ]I, and type ~I, were found in 59 isolates and type III accounted for a large proportion of 54.84%. There was no dominant difference between the tendency of the isolates of Heilongjiang Province and Jilin Province in these three types, which showed DI 〉 I 〉 I, while the isolates of Liaoning Province showed III 〉 II 〉 I. The percentage of different types in different provinces varied in each other; however, they didn't show any obvious regional or cluster-specific branches. In conclusion, the ability to distinguish Aeromonas hydrophila strains from diseased common carp with ERIC-PCR would be useful for epidemiological investigation and population genetic analysis of this pathogen in China.展开更多
