Abstract

The present study is aimed at investigating the effect of  selective Synthetic feed like Zeepromin and Fishmin on  amino acid metabolism of the cultivable fish species like  Catla catla. Labeo rohita. Cirrhinus mrigala. The fishes  selected for the study are divided into two groups’ viz.  control group and experimental groups. The control  group of fishes shall be fed with control feed i.e.  Groundnut cake, rice bran. The experimental group of  fishes shall further be divided into two groups.  Zeepromin and Fishmin which are commercially  available have been selected for the study. The first  group of experimental fish has been fed with control  feed mixed with Zeepromin. The second group of  experimental fish has been fed with control feed mixed  with Fishmin. The two groups of experimental fish shall  be fed twice a day at 10 a.m. and at 5 p.m. The  exposure period was selected for the study after 30  days the fishes were sacrificed and isolated the tissues  like muscle and liver at 40C and assayed the activity of  Asperate amino transferase (AAT), Alanine Amino  Transferase (ALAT) and Glutamate dehydrogenase  (GDH). Zeepromin and Fishmin feed fed fishes like  muscle and liver showed an increase in their AAT, ALAT  and GDH activity levels.
