A study on methanol herbal plant extract of garlic, Green tea and Echinacae on immunity level of Mugil cephalus

Medicinal herbs are non-specific stimulants for the immune response, as useful material for fish and other aquatic animals are known. 1080 grey mullet larvae with an average weight of g 0.75 ± 0.02 and an average length cm 4.40 ± 0.81 were purchased from Ramin port is located 5 km far from the fishing port of Chabahar. This research is based on nine treatments and control designed with 3 replications and a control treatment. Each 3 treatments with its replications dedicated to garlic, green tea and Echinacae. 38.7 ±1.85 micrograms per ml was highest lysozyme activity, phagocytosis rate (56 ± 1.55%) and respiratory burst (1.61 ± 0.18 absorbance at 620 nm) in the treatment with 100 mg of garlic extract per kilogram food was observed. The highest lysozyme activity by the extract of Echinacea was observed in treatment of 200 per million as 15.73 ± 1.13 mg green tea by 11.6 ± 0.3 were recorded in the same concentration. The highest activity of lysozyme (11.3 ± 0.7 micrograms per ml), the phagocytosis (33.3 ± 1.49%) and respiratory burst (0.57 ± 0.08 absorbance at 620 nm) in treatment green tea extract 200 mg per kg of food was observed. According to the results seems lysozyme activity and phagocytosis, which is considered an indicator of the safety of non-proprietary are influnced highly by diets containing garlic.
