The present study was performed to evaluate the antioxidant activities of carvacrol in vivo on farmed fish. TBARS, protein Carbonil groups and SOD were assessed in liver of seabass fed with essential oil supplemented diet (0.025% and 0.05% of carvacrol). TBARS and CO were reduced by both the two treatments tested, while SOD activity was unaffected. The results indicate carvacrol as a promising dietary supplement in organic aquaculture in respect of the current European Community framework rules based on animal welfare and environmental preservation.

Abstract
The present study was performed to evaluate the antioxidant activities of carvacrol in vivo on farmed fish. TBARS, protein Carbonil groups and SOD were assessed in liver of seabass fed with essential oil supplemented diet (0.025% and 0.05% of carvacrol). TBARS and CO were reduced by both the two treatments tested, while SOD activity was unaffected. The results indicate carvacrol as a promising dietary supplement in organic aquaculture in respect of the current European Community framework rules based on animal welfare and environmental preservation.File in questo prodotto:
